Question:
I would like to know what technique do you use to generate the minutes spent on a rich media ad?
Does the interaction time start once the rich media ad is loaded or does the interaction time start once a mouseover is done on the rich media ad?
Answer:
The interaction time is duration of communication between User and the Advertisement banner. It can be calculated by various mouse operations like Mouse move and Click on banner. In Openx, The interaction time is calculated as the average time between banner displayed in page and banner has clicked by user.

Question:
Hi,
I noticed that advertisers account allows them to change banner size. But I don’t want to allow this… Is it possible?
The zone attached to its campaign must be able to display 728*90 and 468*60 banners, so I have to setup “custom” in its size field. and then the advertiser can upload 1000*1000 banner if he wants…
Thanks
Answer:
Yes,you can set the restrictions to the advertiser that he/she cannot change the banner size.But there is no predefined functionality is available.
We can do the customization work easily , so we can do this kind of new functionality effectively and quickly .

Question
I try to link new user with advertiser. I have created an advertiser and I try to add user to this advertiser by clicking user access tab a then add user. When I click add user nothing is happening. I work as default manager. How to add new user and link it with advertiser ?
Answer
In OpenX 2.8.4 there is no option to add the user to the advertiser.So,you will not be able to add the user to your advertiser.For that OpenX needs to have the advertiser SignUp module to achieve this.

Question:
Is it possible to have with the latest version of OpenX some banners automatically rotated in the same position in the same page with different weights, without reloading the webpage?
For example two or three banners automatically rotated in the same position with a JavaScript…
Answer:
Yes,You have the option in latest version of the Openx.
You have to copy the iFrame invocation tag code instead of copying javascript invocation tag code to put in the website zone.
At the same time you need to specify the time difference between the banner delivery.for this you have an option called refresh after.You need to specify the time interval in that place.

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.

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 : 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.

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.
