Ad Placements

Ad Agency can turn your site into revenue powerhouse by allowing registered users to become “advertisers” and create various different ads. Place and track your promotional announcements across:

  • JomSocial streams or tabs
  • Entire Joomla! Website
  • Multiple sites including non-Joomla! sites

Multiple Ad types:

  • Banner Ad for graphic or affiliate codes

  • Textual Ad
  • Floating Ad, similar to Popup Ad, floats on top of the site content

In Ad Agency, you can set different prices for different types of ads

Target Specific Audience

Targeting the specific audience on the site is very important. Ads created in the Ad Agency extension support geolocated ads which can be configured even at the city or zip code levels (US and Canada only).

JomSocial Profile targeting

Integration with JomSocial offers even more targeting options. You can chose the Custom Profile Fields to target specific ads. 
Only fields with fixed values like radio buttons or dropdown selects can be used because it is hard to do it with "free form" values like text inputs, but even with just these options combined it is a system powerful enough for advertiser to target ads only to females, between age 20 and 50. This is one just example. Options are basically limitless.
