What does this do? I'm confused. Is this a banner exchange service?

This is a service where you can track clicks and impressions on your ads or images in general.

Good job! And I might be using the API thing soon.

Oh, so when the person clicks the link, they go to banner.so then it redirects them to the destination site?

 

[Joshua Farrell]

No, it doesn't take them to banner.so, it takes them directly to the intended website. Think of google ads, the url you see when you hover over the ad isn't the url you are taken to. The url you get taken to is basically cloaked by a different url.

Yes it does. Look at the link. It takes them to banner.so first then redirects to the final destination.

It redirects through banner.so, it needs to do this to track the clicks. This is not noticeable to an end user though because it usually happens instantly. Most ad programs do it this way. Adsense, Buysellads etc;
