Sid_Wolf Posted September 12, 2010 Report Share Posted September 12, 2010 Does anyone else have annoying ads all over the place?? when i read a thread theres one between the 1st post and the 2nd. and when i go into a forum section there's one between threads in there aswell... Is it intentional Marc or can you move them?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sid_Wolf Posted September 12, 2010 Author Report Share Posted September 12, 2010 na its not i've never seen them before, they used to be at the bottom of the page with the country hounds one Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marc Posted September 12, 2010 Report Share Posted September 12, 2010 I think "All over the place" is a bit of an exaduration. They have been placed under the first post of each thread, and under the first topic of each forum. Unfortunatly this place aint coming cheap these days .... The other day I had to upgrade us to a totally dedicated server which increased the sites cost from being expensive, to being 50% more expensive. The choice was really simple and none optional, we either cut back on some of the features on the forum and start limiting things left right and center, or we start to ensure the site can sustain itself. Unfortunatly its really that simple. If we want the best, it gotta be paid for. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sid_Wolf Posted September 12, 2010 Author Report Share Posted September 12, 2010 Ohhh ok, I thought they'd just jumped up from the bottom of the page!! Yea thats understandable Marc, they're just suprising me, cus on my comp they dont show up straight away, so the page jumps! lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rosemary Posted September 13, 2010 Report Share Posted September 13, 2010 It's a great idea Marc - I only noticed it this morning when I logged on. I think its great, if it brings in some income and takes the burden off you and Sarah - great Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sqwidge Posted September 13, 2010 Report Share Posted September 13, 2010 i saw them last night and thought the ads at the bottom were acting up! Do you get to pick which companies advertise, have you tried selling the space to P@H or other pet shop companies...don't know if it is possible or not?

Sid_Wolf Posted September 13, 2010 Author Report Share Posted September 13, 2010 Lmfao Val! Yep! just like that!! Scared the shizz outta me!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SaraB Posted September 13, 2010 Report Share Posted September 13, 2010 lol. I thought my computer was acting up or that I had accidently signed off when I saw the ads. They aren't annoying. I think the change just surprised everyone. It's good if the site can pay for itself. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andy Posted September 13, 2010 Report Share Posted September 13, 2010 Have you thought of using Adserve, by Google It will target exact ads appropriate to the content on the page. ?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marc Posted September 13, 2010 Report Share Posted September 13, 2010 Think thats adsense m8 not adserve. That is what is currently being used. The target ads are only as exact as you sent them up unfortunatly and can take time to get them right. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
