Buy Sell Ads

[Fergal]

Just a note to let you know that we are now selling ad slots in the forum header via BuySellAds.

This is really a tester to see how it works out.

Thanks for your interest and support.

 

[Ashley S]

Hopefully people use it Fergal 🙂

 

[Fergal]

Thanks Ashley, we will see how it works out.

If it works for FP it will almost certainly lead to much higher ad revenue as Buy Sell Ads cost a lot more than your average, person to person advertising.

Good luck!

Nice addition, although I think the ad would like nicer a few pixels lower.

If I did have the cash I would have brought it. 🙂

 

[Fergal]

Thanks everyone for your support, we will see how it works out for us.

I will see what I can do on that Flux.

Please tell us your experience with them. I heard some advertisers in buysellads pay $75/12K impression.

If its bigger in width and length, I would buy it. But not as it is now.

I'm glad that a banner rotation has finally entered FP. It's awesome that you all are using BuySellAds. I think it will help out a bunch and expose FP / advertisers in a more efficient way.

Props to Fergal and everyone included in this decision; for making a good one!

It's not a banner rotation, according to the BSA page.

It is a rotating banner, according to FP's ad on the BSA page.

I take that back, BSA has information that applies to all ads right next to information that only applies to some.

 

[Fergal]

Thanks Ghost, I agree with you it is confusing the way BSA do that.

If its bigger in width and length, I would buy it. But not as it is now.

Thanks for the feedback Mabrooq. What size would you buy?

Why not make it the same size as it was pre-buysellads?

I agree, you can use custom sizes when setting up an ad zone.

I also suggest that you upload a 48x48 icon that will be displayed in the marketplace. Little things like that really help with getting sales 🙂

Is there anyway you can make it not blocked by ad-blockers on browsers? (by default)

I feel like many people use ad blockers and would not see the ad.

Not possible. You can display a message asking them to remove the ad-block to support the site though...

Thanks ShadyX, I will do that.

Thanks everyone else for your suggestions and feedback, I will consider them.

That is the whole point of an ad-blocker, you have to respect that people don't want to see ads.

468x60 is standard size, only size I would look to ever purchase.
