Nuking The Competition - Commercial Break (
Page 7 of 8 )
PHP-Nuke also comes with a
pretty good built-in banner advertising system, so that webmasters can begin
offering advertisers banner placement facilities immediately. The banner
administration system, available from the administration menu, allows
administrators to create accounts for different advertisers, and specify the
number of impressions purchased by each. Advertisers can provide one or more
banners, and PHP-Nuke will take care of rotating through and displaying the
banners as visitors browse through the site.
A neatly compiled table allows administrators and
advertisers to immediately view statistics per banner - number of views, number
of clicks, and percentage of views converted into clicks. This information is
also available to the advertiser via email.
While the system is pretty basic, it works well, and
should satisfy most requirements...and, of course, you can always invest in a
more professional system once the green stuff starts rolling in!
