iJoomla Ad Agency allows you to easily create advertisement packages based on CPM, CPC or a flat rate. Potential advertisers on your site can purchase the packages of their choice.
Where to place your ads is an important decision. You want to have the flexibility to display your ads anywhere you want and display as many ads as you want.
Zones give you that freedom. You can create an unlimited number of zones, and because each zone generates a module, the zones can fit in any module position available on your template. You can control the location of this module just like you control any other module. You can change its title and choose the pages to display it. If you're using iJoomla SideBars, you can even publish zones inside articles.
Campaigns
A campaign is a serving of ad(s) by one advertiser, limited by clicks, impressions or time. iJoomla Ad Agency allows you and your advertisers to create campaigns. Both of you can choose which ads to place in the campaign, select the start date and pause the campaign if necessary. No ad will show on your site until launch a campaign.
Live payments
Once you have at least one package and one payment method plugin installed, you can start generating income! Advertisers can buy packages from you, pay and add a campaign. Once approved, the campaign goes live and your advertiser's ads start showing on the zones you've assigned.
Live reports
Both admin and advertisers have access to real-time live reports. This is a vital tool that allows you to use stats to optimize your campaigns and ads. You can test different strategies to generate maximum income.
To do list
Login to the backend and you'll see a list of things to do, including a link to all the banners and advertisers that are pending your approval. Don't let your advertisers wait too long for you to approve their account or their banners!
You're in control!
Everything about your site should be under your control.
With iJoomla Ad Agency, no one can become an advertiser without your approval and no ad can go live until you accept it. You also control the location of each ad and the number of ads shown. You decide how many campaigns run at the same time and how often to show pop ups or floating ads. You can also cancel a campaign at any time and unpublish or move your ads.
Automatic E-Mails
Because we want your ad server to be as simple as possible, system emails are sent to you and advertisers automatically.
For example, when a new advertiser signs up, you will receive an email notifying you so that you can approve or reject the advertiser. Once approved, the advertiser receives an email and can then upload banners, purchase packages and create campaigns.
These automatic emails allow you to keep in touch with your advertisers and let them know the status of their campaigns, ads, etc without you lifting a finger. iJoomla Ad Agency does it all for you.
Payment Methods Plugins
You want to start making money now, right? Payment methods such as Paypal and 2Checkout let you do just that. The Paypal plugin is included free in the package! All you need is a Paypal account and you can started collecting payment from advertisers now.
iJoomla Ad Agency is an advertising management system for Joomla sites. Site owners can create an unlimited number of advertising zones, packages and campaigns, sell space for all ad types from banners to pop-ups -- and earn money from advertising on their Web pages.
How do advertisers sign up to my Ad Agency?
They click on the "Advertise on this site" link that's located on the advertiser menu module. They fill out the application form and they wait for you to approve their application.
How long will it take me to set it up?
It will take you a few minutes to install the component, 2 modules and the PayPal payment plugin (view video), and a few more minutes to create your advertisers packages and zones. Then you'll be all set.
Can just anyone advertise on my site?
Anyone can apply, but only YOU choose who is accepted as an advertiser. If you don't approve an advertiser, they can't start a campaign on your site or purchase advertising packages. This way you can be sure that only advertisers who are a good match can advertise on your site. Compatibilty between your site and the prospective advertiser is extremely important to the success of Ad Agency.
How do advertisers add banners or ads?
Once approved, advertisers can login on the front end and access the "ads" link, where they have an option to add any type of ad. Each ad will have to be approved by you before it goes live. View video.
What is a campaign?
Campaigns are servings of ads financed by clicks, impressions or time. You can create a campaign based on a selected package. For example, if you have a package of 5000 impressions, you can create a campaign using that package. The campaign will expire when all the 5000 impressions are served. Advertisers can add campaign on the front end, but they need to purchase an advertising package first. A campaign goes live only after you approve it.
What are zones? How do I use them?
A zone is a special module that contains one or more ads. The module is generated automatically when you add a zone. You can create as many zones as you want and place them in any module position available on your template. You can choose how many ads to show on each zone and what order it will show on the front end. Every zone you create is also a module you can find and edit on the list of modules of your back end interface.
Can advertisers upload ads that will mess up my site?
They can upload any ad, but you simply reject ads that you think will not work on your site. Pay attention to the ad before you approve it and make sure you assign it to the right zone. For example, if the advertiser uploads a 300x300 banner and you place it in on a zone in the right position of your template that's only 150px wide, it will break your layout. You may want to create a special zone for such wide banner and place it in a SideBar or at the bottom of the page.
What if I don't like the ad the advertiser has uploaded?
Just reject it. The advertiser will get an automatic email letting them know their banner was rejected.
What types of ads does iJoomla Ad Agency support?
Standard banners, Flash banners, text ads, pop ups, pop unders, transition, floating. You can read more about ad types here.
What knowledge do I need in order to use iJoomla Ad Agency?
You should have a minimal knowledge in Joomla. That's it.
Can I make changes to the code?
Most of the code is open and you can make changes. Some files, however, are encrypted.
Can I use it on more than one domain?Can I use it on more than one domain?
No, the license is just for one domain. We also give you the option to register a development domain, so that you can test it on a different domain.
What are packages?
Packages are what advertisers pay for when they choose to advertise on your site. Packages can be one of the three standard advertising models common on the Internet:
Cost Per 1000 Impressions
CPC - Cost Per Click
Flat Rate - Based on time: days, weeks, months or years
A package, once added, will be available on the list of packages on the front-end. Advertisers will be able to order it and pay for it online. You will also be able to choose this package when you add a campaign.
What types of payment methods do you support?
We currently support PayPal. We will be adding more payment methods as we go.
