What is Adbrite?
From the main site of Adbrite
AdBrite, “The Internet’s Ad Marketplace”, is an e-commerce site. Rather than selling books, CDs, or rare antiques, we sell ad space on thousands of websites.
….If you’re a publisher, use AdBrite to set your own ad rates, and approve or reject every ad that’s purchased for your site. AdBrite enables you to instantly sell ads to your visitors via a “Your Ad Here” link, in addition to selling through AdBrite’s marketplace and sales team.
Our revenue split is 75/25 in your favor. Through a small snippet of HTML placed on your site, we handle serving, scheduling, billing, customer service, and sales. About half of AdBrite’s sales are generated from our marketplace and sales team, while the other half are generated from users clicking “Your Ad Here” on our publisher’s sites.
While AdBrite can provide publishers with more revenue and better ads than traditional ad networks such as Google AdSense, we work fine along-side them as a simple way to generate additional ad revenue by selling ads directly to your visitors — something the other ad systems don’t do.
If you’re using AdBrite in addition to another ad network, you can turn off AdBrite’s “run-of-network ads” and AdBrite will only display ads that have been approved by you. If you have no ads running, AdBrite will display nothing but “Your Ad Here”, so no real estate is wasted and you have nothing to lose.
AdBrite doesn’t display the big “brick” of ads that you’re used to. Rather, AdBrite gives publishers full control over the look and feel of their ads so AdBrite can be integrated seamlessly into any website.
This Small Plugin will allow you to add your Adbrite code in your Blog (Wordpress). You have to upload the plug in your wp-content/plugins directory. then go to your Plugins configuration page and click Activate.
You have to customize your Plug in and add your Adbrite code there: Open Adbrite.php and after this:
Add your code and edit your Style if you need.

The idea came from: Phil Hord. Who made the Adsense Plugin. I edited to Adbrite so thanks to Phil who create this plugin and I edited to work with Adbrite.

I use AdBrite on BOTD (WordPress plugin/ranking site) because I can style it to fit into my site.
People don’t click enough, however, therefore people don’t buy the ads every time they’re available. Maybe I fit it too well…

that Adbrite code on the top is more of a pain actually as some users don’t like to be CLOUDED by network ads on the top.
well, I did some mods to make the Adbrite work as a sidebar…and it may NOT be as how I like it to be…but I can’t be choosy.

Well, addbrite is quite good. But I would like to have more customisation of ad’s look. Ofcourse, I can change css code, but there are users who dont know css very well.

Hi
I have been trying Adbrite for sometime, but did not really focus on it.
Now that I have got an opportunity, can you please how can I really get some returns with it
It is rare, when someone clicks on an Adbrite ad, and the network links don’t seem to help much
Please advise if there are any insider methods

hi there, I tried the plugin, pasting the code I got from adbrite, but suddenly I couldn’t access my plugin.php, I couldnt open my main site either.
I keep getting this message:
Parse error: syntax error, unexpected ‘_

I had to tweak the code a bit to get it work properly on my site:
1) Replaced apostrophes with double quotation marks (color definitions) — otherwise there were parsing errors
2) Encoded ampersands in URLs (”&”) — otherwise the page didn’t pass W3C validation

I was able to download and activate the plugin successfully with some tweaking, but now I’m not sure if it’s activated correctly. While I have stopped receiving the syntax error and the plugins menu shows it as activated, how do I get the ads into a post? There’s no button or shortcut that I can find.
Also I am working in WP 2.5.1 if that makes any difference.
