CodeWalrus Ads

Wait, do the ads help fund CW at all?

u/Yuki July 18, 2017, 07:35:46 PM

It does help a bit. We get a 70% cut and there's no limit on withdrawing funds, other than a $1 fee for Paypal.

This reminds me, if we wanted to I think we could actually run two (smaller) ad boxes and maybe even a third one at the bottom of the page. This site, for example, has the small version of the DJ Omnimaga Music banner right next to Supermassive Black Hole side by side as of this afternoon https://www.wow-mania.com/forum/ . I dunno if it's against their rules, though, but if on mobile it looks fine (as in, no word wrap causing the banners to appear on top of each others) then that could be a way to possibly give more room for ads. It could reduce the maximum bids, though.

I think revenues from Project Wonderful ads are higher overall than Google Adsense. I dunno how long you have to wait before you can withdraw revenues but I think it's once they reach $5, versus $100 on Google. Also, CW is whitelisted on Adblock Plus so people see the banner on CW even with Adblock Plus enabled (it's hidden with uBlock, though)

Ah yeah, just checked, there's a minimum of $10 you have to withdraw. Not hard to make compared to AdSense. And you can register up to 5 different ad boxes per site you can individually bid on.
