The Little Guy Posted February 25, 2008 Share Posted February 25, 2008 On my site, I am doing free hosting, but I would "like" to get revenue from the site, and so I have ads. What would be the best type of advertisements? I currently use a Google banner, but It doesn't look nice on top or bottom, and people can use CSS/JavaScript to cover it up. Pop-Ups are annoying, but people MUST look at the pop-up close it, and they don't ruin someone's web site look and feel. What would the best way (in your opinion) to gain revenue on a free web hosting site? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zq29 Posted February 25, 2008 Share Posted February 25, 2008 I currently use a Google banner, but It doesn't look nice on top or bottom, and people can use CSS/JavaScript to cover it up. Put it in your terms and conditions that they are not allowed to obscure your advertisements - If they do, terminate their account. Pop-ups are generally automatically blocked in most modern browsers, so that's not really a viable solution. You cold do something with forced frames (old school, I know) using one of the Apache modules, I forget which one it is now that you can use to include code in all request pages...

What I meant by "Pop-Up" was that it would display a div within the browser, with an X, and that would be like a pop-up, and their browser wouldn't block it.

steelmanronald06 Posted February 26, 2008 Share Posted February 26, 2008 still probably best to go with the google ads, and just put a stip in your tos saying it must be visible. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
