Seasons Greetings!

As you know, the holiday season is just around the corner, and as smart Advertisers, you know it’s time to pull all the stops and prepare for the rush of holiday shoppers. This year, more than ever, you will need to start your promotions early. And start them online.

According to Compete Inc.’s survey, almost two thirds of respondents had already begun their holiday shopping and 14% had already made more than half of their intended purchases. Online spending has also increased, as shoppers spend on average $185 online, up 30% from the 2 weeks leading up to the beginning of November.

Original Post: Holiday shoppers spending more online than in-store. (http://www.bizreport.com/2010/11/holiday-shoppers-spending-more-online-than-in-store.html)

With the holiday shoppers doing their shopping earlier and online, you as an Advertiser have to make sure not to fall behind. You will need to promote your campaigns to as many visitors that are interested in your holiday specials as you can. But where would you get a large amount of targeted visitors in the shortest amount of time?

AdOnion helps you take advantage of the holiday rush by increasing the number of relevant visitors for your promotions. Simply go on our site today to find the right package and suitable channels that you want to promote your offers.

The holidays are almost here, and time is running out. Have you started preparing for your holiday promotions?

As a publisher, your intent is to make as much earnings as possible. You simply submit your site for approval and advertisers will contact you and we will place ads on your site as well. As a publisher, you can also take control of the revenue you receive by requesting advertisers to place their ad on your site. By visiting the Merchant Directory, publishers are able to see a listing of advertisers and their offers. The publisher can sort by channel, cost metric or ad format and view the details of a particular campaign. Below is a snapshot of the Merchant Directory:

Once the sorting is done, a publisher can also see the daily limit of campaigns and click to view the details to show the target country, offer price, category and ad type as shown below:

So what is the power of the Merchant Directory?
Publishers have the power and control to view, sort and request ads to be displayed on their site with AdOnion’s Merchant Directory. To view our Merchant Directory, please click here.

AdOnion’s New Revolution

Annie Wong — Tue, 01 Sep 2009 21:04:55 +0000

Toronto, Ontario, August 28, 2009 – AdOnion marked it’s first year of business with the ending of July. AdOnion has grown from nothing to a good size transparent advertising network now. We currently have 9000 accounts with over 6000 websites with over 50 active campaigns. We would like to take this opportunity to ‘thank you’ all of our advertisers, publishers and partners for all the support and feedbacks over the year.

We’ve celebrated our new year with a BIG CHANGE to AdOnion. We’ve moved to larger and faster servers so that ads can be loaded more quickly and we’ve changed the whole look of AdOnion from all the feedbacks we got from our advertisers, publishers and partners. We’ve also created the new system with more flexibility so in the future we can easily add more features and add-ons to the new AdOnion system.

From the growth of AdOnion we know that we are doing something right, and we would continually work hard to meet the needs of all our advertisers, publishers and partners. Therefore don’t hesitate to contact us with any feedbacks, concerns, and questions you may have.

What Is a Publisher?

Annie Wong — Tue, 12 May 2009 17:26:16 +0000

I’ve gotten many inquiries about what is a publisher? So let me first start off this post by explaining what a publisher is. A publisher is someone who owns a website (a webmaster) or have control over a website’s content. With access to a website you can help generate revenue from your website by going to networks like AdOnion (there are many more out there that you can choose from) and display ads for the network in return of additional revenue from your site.

It’s a very simple process and you can make money easily and it’s free to sign up, can you believe that? Here is the steps in becoming a publisher with AdOnion (Please note, every network’s sign up process will differ):

Sign up for a free publisher account.
Register your website by going to ‘My Sites’, and enter some information about your site so advertisers will know what your site is about and choose to advertise with you.
After registering your site you can go to ” Create Zone’ and set up your ad zone. This can range from text banners, graphical banners, popunders or interstitial depending on the space you have on your website. For more information on what they are you can review my earlier post “What Are Ad Formats And Cost Metrics” You will noticed that you will have to enter rates for the ad zone and these rates are totally up to you and when the advertisers makes a purchase directly for your ad zone they will pay you using the rate you stated.
After creating your ad zone you will get our code on the following page and place it on your website.
Congratulations! You are officially a publisher with AdOnion and will start earning immediately. You can go to ‘optimize’ located under ‘My Ad Zone’ to view the ads matched to your ad zone as well as block ads you don’t think will work for your website content.

Please note that AdOnion will review all sites from time to time and have the right to suspend your site at any time due to poor quality, no content, typo in the URL, excessive ads, adult content etc. For our full terms and conditions please review here.

You can also review our ‘How It Works’ section, for precise steps in creating from signing up to creating your ad zones with us.

In the following post I’ll give you some tips in generating more revenue for your website.
