Why is Advertising an important source of revenue?

Advertising probably is the most successful way to earn money online. While businesses have been experimenting with a variety of business models for raising revenue from online properties, this is the only model that has worked really really well.

The most awaited release of the year is here! SocialAds is now way more cooler, faster, flexible. With this release we have not only introduced some awesome features but refactored the entire code which is better organized architecturally for more extensibility.

What’s new?

Surprise! Bootstrap 3 with backwards compatibility

SocialAds will be set to Bootstrap 3 by default after the installation. If you want to use it with conventional Bootstrap 2.x versions you will have to change the integration and follow the setup instructions given.

Backend Dashboard

We have added some amazing new stuff in the dashboard (practically gave it a makeover) using which admin will get insights of the total number of ads on the site and will be able to monitor his revenue, Click to impression ratio etc.

Digital Advertising has always been a tough job when it comes to the look of your website and the reputation of your site with respect to the end user. In such cases, too much advertising is what tends to happen. Instead of increasing the brand goodwill it can hamper it. Special care needs to be taken to optimize the use of available real estate.

However, with Pretty, well placed, relevant ads that appeal to the sensibilities of your end users can have a completely opposite and positive impact on your site, your brand and finally your ad sales. Let's explore the best way to achieve this sweet spot.

 The Right Ad types in the right places

SocialAds lets you create different types of Ads. You need to be choosy about deciding which Ad type looks good where. Image Ads will look good in most positions while sometimes you might need to set up a simple pure text ad position.
