Adbrite clone using OpenX !!

February 21st, 2010

Question
Hello, I want to make Adbrite clone (having functionality same as adbrite). Is it possible to make it from OpenX?

I want mainly below functionality.

1) Advertiser Functionality

  • Advertiser can bid on zone on selected zone.
  • Full page ads, inline ads

2)Publisher Functionality

  • Publisher can create zone, set color, type of zone
  • Default banner with min eCPM

3) Site Directory

4) Referral System

Answer

  • Yes, adbrite has number of unique functionality like inline ads, full page ads. Currently OpenX is not supporting this by default but we can customize OpenX and can implement this functionality.
  • If you want to make site like adbrite then we cant use OpenX default template/UI as both has many differences so we need to make new UI having adbrite functionality using OpenX as backend.
  • We can make new advertiser signup, creating banner, Publisher Signup, creating zone, statistics for adv/pub, payment system for adv/pub.
  • Also, we can have site directory and referral system.

Let us know if you are interested to make clone of adbrite. Send your requirement to info@openxservices.com or info@dreamajax.com now.

Openx with Joomla

January 14th, 2010

QUESTION

I would like to know if there is a place I can get a demo of your billing mod.Will this integrate with Joomla? I’m assuming that mulitiple publishers can be set up and offer inventory. And in turn the payments will be broken down and displayed for publisher payment.’m planning on buiding ad netowrks and each publisher will get a percentage of advertising revenue. Is there a way to automate the publisher payment process as an admin where I take my percentage and they take theirs?

ANSWER

The Billing Module at the link , http://www.adservermods.com/openxmods/Billing-Module/prod_608.html will be the suitable Module for your requirement.

The Billing Module only deals with the Billing at the End of the Month and sharing the revenue for the Publishers.The Admin can set the % of Revenue for the Publisher and the Revenue will be calculated and displayed in the Publisher Login for the Publisher Reference. Admin can pay the Revenue that is displayed for the Publisher through PayPal.The Advertiser and Publisher Registration Module, with the Billing System, will get More Advantage. Let us know your Adserver Requirement or the Functional flow, so that we can provide you the custom services with the Mods.

QUESTION : On behalf of one of our clients we are looking for a solution to schedule Ads to start on a specific time of the day and ends at a specific time .i.e a campaign to start on February 15, 2010 at 3 PM and ends on March 15, 2010 at 6 PM.

Do you have a solution for this problem ? Could you provide some information on how such a solution would be implemented in OpenX ? Is it a plug- in or how does this work ?

Advertiser Sign up and Banner Approval

January 11th, 2010

QUESTION : Can you suggest the packet that would allow :

1. advertisers register themselves automatically, enter account

2. advertisers be able to add and edit all banners themselves

3. but those banners become active ONLY after admin moderates them postfactum

ANSWER :  The “Advertiser Registration Module with All Permission” will allow the Advertiser to Create, Edit and Delete the Campaigns and Banners. Advertiser will be also able to Link the Banners to the zones.
Let us know the link details,. Do you want the Advertiser to create the campaigns also?

Regarding the Banner, he should be able to create, edit and delete the Banners. we can have a UI for the Administrator that lists all the banners that are created or edited by Advertisers. Admin can Activate , deactivate state or Reject them.

Openx to display Ads in Word press

January 1st, 2010

<!– @page { margin: 2cm } P { margin-bottom: 0.21cm } –>

<!– @page { margin: 2cm } P { margin-bottom: 0.21cm } A:link { color: #0000ff; so-language: zxx } –>

QUESTION

I am a word-press user looking for an ad management system that can handle my servers’ CPU usage. I currently use a plug in by maxblogpress.com that apparently is not working right for my needs as host-gator has suspended my website due to excessive CPU usage.

In the hunt to find a solution, I stumbled across open X. It appears to be much more powerful than I am use to. My question is, does open X consume too many resources for a basic host-gator server? I have a reseller’s package. My site doesn’t use much bandwidth or disk space, but apparently it uses excessive amounts of CPU.

I’m not sure ,the CPU issue maybe because I add a zone in each post manually instead of hard coding it in the word press script? I have no clue. But what is important is 300×300 banners in post.

ANSWER

<!– @page { margin: 2cm } P { margin-bottom: 0.21cm } –>

Open X is best option to server ads in your site. Open X won’t load your server as it has all delivery of banners in optimized way. In short, it will give you more functionality in less server use.

I have gone through your site. There are many images in homepage and ads which takes much load.

We can help you by installing Open X for your site which has number of other advantages like you can link banners to zone from UI. You can call advertiser to display ads in your site and they can see their statistics.

Also, let us know if you need any support in Word press as well.

Is there any way to merge AdQuick + BlogQuick with openx?

September 10th, 2009

Question:
The plan is first to merge AdQuick + BlogQuick together and to ad some additional features (this will be done from the phplemon deveolpers) to get the best ad features combined and to target more the blogsphere.

My idea is to integrate the OpenX market to get more access to potential advertisers listed there to better market the ad invenory of my registered bloggers.

I will need to connect the customized adQuick and OpenX market.

Answer:
We have analyzed your question. As you know, OpenX market has not released any API to get ads from OpenX host. As you told that you want to integrate adquick+blogquick with oxmarket, we need oxmarket API to integrate it to adquick+blogquick.

Currently, We can have OpenX setup and we can setup OpenX market in it and then we can use OpenX invocation code into Adquick+blogquick and this way you will get all advertisers from OpenX Market.

(Currently, OpenX Market is supporting only OpenX Product only so we have to wait till they will release API to get ads or put our ads in it.)

Is there any API to get ads from openx hosted? Will it work in OpenX only?

September 5th, 2009

Question:
i have my own adserver (custom, hand written).

Is there any way to integrate openx Market plugins (Openx Hosted) to my adserver so that i can put my campaign to openx hosted and get ads from openx hosted?

Is there any API to get ads from openx hosted? Will it work in OpenX only?
Answer:

We have understand your question, As you know, OpenX market has not released any API to get ads from OpenX host. As you told that you want to integrate your adserver with oxmarket, we need oxmarket API to integrate it to your own adserver.

Currently, We can have OpenX setup and we can setup OpenX market in it and then we can use OpenX invocation code into your adserver and this way you will get all advertisers from OpenX Market.

(Currently, OpenX Market is supporting only OpenX Product only so we have to wait till they will release API to get ads or put our ads in it.)
