What software do you use for banner managment on your sites?
 

Hi
I have adcycle, which is by default banner managment for links sql, but its a bit slow program. i would rather use something better.
What software do you use for banner managment on your sites?

phpadnews is free and works really good

What is this banner management? Does it rotate banners based on number of clicks or what?

I use phpadsnew also. Very powerful tool :) Don't know that it does that ponyman, but you do get stats showing ctr and can 'weight' a particular banner so it shows more than others, as well as a big bunch of other stuff that I haven't gotten into. It takes a little getting used to first off, took me a coupla days of real tearing hair out, but when you get the hang of it - wow!

plus it shows ad views and clicks

I'm using:
PHPAdsNew for graphic banners as it is, IMO, the most complete free ad manager available.
A self re-written version of the old 'txtads' script for my textbox ads.

I also tip my hat to phpAdsNew.

phpadsnew is the BEST!

phpadnews is the only way to go |pink

oke dont laugh here, i have used phpadsnew, i find out that time finally how it worked (thanks to cfnmparty) but i like the good old fashioned taking hours of work putting up the banners with handcoding:D and sometimes i use an easy bannerrotating script. just say i like to do it the hard way:D

Another vote for phpads, been using it for years, the best around. I really dont know why every one would not use some kind of ad script. The goal is to get as many clicks to the sponsor, why would'nt you want to know you ad stats? Could be losing clicks and sales.

knowing page views and clicks helps

I never use such software, but now
I am gonna try it...thanks for the tip

Hey, thanks for the phpAdsNew tip.

I still do everything by hand and a little script which tracks the clicks. But phpAdsNew seems quite usefull.

We use phpadsnew on both ggandj and Javes.

Use it here ..great for places that don't have a lot of space to.

OK I'm convinced! I'm going to try PHPAdsnew! I've been using SSI for most of my ads, and I thought that was a miracle when I found out about it.

The new version has a learning curve, but once you start using it, you'll be glad you did.

I wrote my own, but phpAdsnew appears also to be quite good.

Complicated to master but IMHO the best

OK! I've got phpadsnew all installed on my server. I have a question, though!

What does it mean to add a new advertiser? Should each of my sponsors be considered a new advertiser or what?

It seems this program is designed for mainstream use and I'm just curious as to what the basic alyout should be for adult webmasters when using phpadsnew.

Thanks for the help!

depends on weither your selling ad space or just rotating your own banners

Inspired by this thread I decided to give phpAdsNew another shot. I still don't know my campaigns from my advertisers and publishers, but at least I got it working and it serves ads like a champ. It seems like very powerful software, but a little confusing.

I found a helpful post by security man in which he described how he uses advertisers, campaigns etc.

advertisers are each sponsor, then within each advertiser are campaigns which are the niches or sites for that sponsor

publishers are your websites or niches, and zones are specific places on a webpage where you want ads to appear.

This helped me tremendously, and now I'm beginning to wonder just how I operated and made sales without phpadsnew! This program is amazing! WOW!

I'm using the javascript invocation code, as my pages are straight .html and not .php. This seems to be causing my pages to load much more slowly :(

Does anyone know a fix for this?
