How do I get started?
ADster's system is unique in that it utilizes a hybrid (CPC-2-FlatRate) advertising system. The CPC-2-FlatRate system makes it easy for Advertisers to "test" and determine where their Text ADs perform the best on a CPC basis, before purchasing premium FlatRate ADs. The ADster system automatically optimizes the rotation favoring the best performing AD/Publisher combinations. ADster encourages Advertisers to utilize the CPC-2-FlatRate option to identify the most effective ADster Panels prior to purchasing premium FlatRate ADs.

What kind of ads does ADster serve?
CPC and FlatRate text ads with a link to your website.

How much does ADster cost?
You can spend $25 or thousands depending on your budget and needs. Buy CPC or FlatRate text ad space.

Where do my ads run?
Your ads are displayed for a FlatRate on the sites you choose or CPC across our network of publishers. We have tools to help you sort and create a text ad network that's right for you.

How long until my text ads start running?
CPC Network ads go live in less than 10 minutes! FlatRate text ads will start running after the individual website owners approve your text ad through our system, normally taking less than a few hours.

How do you prevent click fraud?
Our Traffic Quality Team (TQT), constantly monitors our publishers' traffic to ensure our advertisers are only charged for the highest quality clicks, explaining why some of our advertisers are so pleased with their CPC campaigns that they never convert to FlatRate.

How do I keep from bidding too much for CPC?
Our CPC Bid Saver ensures that our advertisers will be charged the least amount possible for each click based on the competitive bids running at that time. This means that the actual CPC that is charged for a click will usually be much less than the maximum CPC that an advertiser species when creating an ADster Network Ad.

How can I target the USA or other specific countries with my CPC campaigns?
Use our GEO Targeting system to target your ADs to only the specific countries and languages that you select. Sell your products and services to markets with the highest profit potential!

Can I have my CPC ads run during a specific time of day?
Sure! Use our AD scheduling to control the time of day that your ADs are displayed. Great for displaying entertainment based ADs at night!

Does ADster use ADster?
Absolutely! We have been buying online advertising since 1998 from banners to pay-per-click for our other online business, infoSpider.com. We knew we could automate an Open Ad Network with our experience from building and running the AltaVista paid inclusion program before they were bought by Overture and then Yahoo! Now that we have created ADster, we have switched most of our large advertising budget exclusively to our ADster program.

Does ADster use a FlatRate or CPC ad monetization system?
ADster's system is unique in that it utilizes a hybrid (CPC-2-FlatRate) advertising monetization system. The CPC-2-FlatRate system makes it easy for Advertisers to "test" and determine where their Text Ads perform the best on a CPC basis, before purchasing premium flat-rate Ads. The system allows Publishers to display pay-per-click ADs in all available ADster network panels that are not completely filled with premium flat-rate ADs. The ADster system automatically optimizes the rotation favoring the best performing ad/Publisher combinations. ADster encourages Advertisers to utilize the CPC-2-FlatRate option to identify the most effective ADster Panels prior to purchasing premium flat-rate Ads.

Will the ADster code in my page slow down my users load time?
No. We have developed a large server farm with superior redundancy and load balancing. ADster is able to overcome bandwidth limitations by having fast, reliable IP connectivity to the Internet within all major metropolitan areas-all over our bandwidth provider's optical Internet long-haul backbone.

How can I make sure that only 'good' text ads are displayed on my website?
No FlatRate ads will run on your website, unless you personally approve them first. You have complete control. You can customize the filters for CPC Network ads, if you choose to display them on your site.

How much do advertisers pay to display their text ads on my website?
You set the price for FlatRate ads. We will make suggestions, but ultimately it is your decision. Think of it like eBay for text ads.

Can I use ADster with other ad programs?
We can produce more revenue for publishers in most cases, but we do not require exclusivity. ADster can be used as a standalone or an incremental add-on to other programs. Incremental add-ons are made easy by being able to dedicate any size space on any page to the ADster program, from small (1 text ad) to large ad blocks (8 text ads).

Should I run CPC or FlatRate?
You can serve CPC or/and FlatRate ads, it's your choice! Once the most effective ADster Panels have been identified by an Advertiser using CPC, they can buy and place targeted contextual ADs on your website in minutes by converting the CPC bids to flat-rate offers. Using a flat-rate system protects the Advertiser from being over-charged by possible click fraud and guarantees the Publisher receives payment from the Advertiser, regardless of the action taken by the customer visiting the Publisher's website. ADster manages all monies exchanged between Advertisers and Publishers (credit cards, Paypal, echecks, wire transfers).

Do I need to enter into a long term contract?
No, use our service for a day or years.

What is an ADster Panel?
An ADster Panel is the block of text ad space that is displayed on your website. You can customize your ADster Panel to complement your website's design. Integrate your ADster Panel seamlessly into your website. We simply manage your text ad program in the background. That is why we do not place our logo or company name on your ADster Panel or website.

What is displayed in my ADster Panel when I don't have any ads to display?
CPC Network ads are displayed on your panel if you elect to run CPC ads. You get paid 75% on the click revenue and you can choose the types of ads that are allowed to run on your site.

How do I approve the FlatRate ads so they will be displayed on my website?
We send you an email. You login and click on accept, accept with edits or reject. We do the rest.

The default setting is $25 dollars. You can change it to more or less at any time.

When do I get paid?
We pay Net 60. We send out checks on the last Wednesday of every month.
