Adroll is an interesting new ad network I found via Techcrunch this morning. The idea is that Adroll allows groups of similar sites to get together and combine their advertising inventory. This combined inventory is then sold by Adroll for more than the individual sites would be able to get selling their own space.
The best bit as far as I’m concerned though is that it works alongside your existing Adsense advertising. The Adroll widget will show your usual Adsense ads and only replace them if they can get a better price through their own network. It would seem that there’s nothing to lose if you already run Adsense on your site.
I’ve just signed up this morning and created a community for UK Affiliate Blogs. If you fancy joining me, sign up with Adroll and join the community and we’ll see what happens. You might not be able to find the community straight away in which case leave a comment below or contact me through my contact form and I’ll send you an invite by email.
Woohoo! I’ve just found out I’ve won a free ticket to the a4uAwards in London’s swanky Park Lane Hotel.
Event organisers Existem had been running a competition to guess the name of the celebrity presenter for this year’s awards and yours truly got it on the second clue. It’s amazing what you can discover with a quick Google search and a Wikipedia page!
So me plus guest will be donning our finest on June 5th to see Michael McIntyre handing out the gongs. I’ve never been to a black tie event before - I’m thinking they don’t mean jeans, t-shirt and a black tie so I’d better head off to Moss Bros!
Now all I need to do is have a little affiliate success so I don’t feel a complete fraud surrounded by all the award winners.
UPDATE: Much to my annoyance I’ve discovered I can’t make it to the ceremony. I’d misread the date and not realised I have something else I can’t get out of. Grrrrr!
