FAQ of the Day: What is in-text advertising?

 

In-Text Advertising is a form of contextual advertising in which ads are served directly into the textual content of a website. In-text ads vary in their presentation and can be represented by different graphics, such as different colored links, or windows that pop-up when a user mouses over the highlighted text.


Triggit introduces an even more advanced form of in-text advertising through contextual scanning and placement. How does this work? Triggit has invented a technology that scans your webpages and automatically identifies contextually relevant keywords, products, search terms and more. Triggit then matches these terms to the millions of text advertisements in our database, and when there is a good fit, a Triggit Ad-Link is automatically generated. Publishers make money every time one of their users click on these Ad Links.


Unlike many other in-text solutions, Triggit doesn’t affect things like page rank because our links are all JavaScript. Everything is automated, and you can choose the number of Ad Links you want to appear in your pages.


Have more questions about in-text advertising or Triggit Ad Links? Contact Bobby at feedback@triggit.com. We can’t wait to hear form you!

Instead of keeping his cape in the closet for saving the planet, Super Dog Jackson decided to wear his cape into the office today.

What is your costume?

Press

Well, it looks like we can’t hide any more. Shoemoney wrote about the new Triggit today on his awesome blog. Thanks Shoe, much appreciated. Welcome to all the new users to help us test and improve the product. We have a long way to go and really look forward to your help and suggestions.

Over the last few months we have been working on significantly changing and updating our platform so that Triggit automatically inserts contextual ads into a website. No more drag and drop. The first ad unit we are working on is the in-text ad unit. Using our technology we are able to scan a page and semantically determine what the content is about and insert a contextually relevant ad. Most of the time anyway, it is still pretty rough and young technology.

Please don’t hesitate to let us know about any feedback or ideas you might have for us.

Linda also wrote about us on her very useful blog about affiliate marketing. Thanks Linda.

True or False

A lot of people have been asking me lately, ‘Where has the toolbar gone?” or “I want to use your old function to quickly create Amazon links.  THAT was cool and useful.  Where do I get that?”  You get what I am saying.

If you Google Triggit you will get a variety of things. You will likely read past WYSIWYG web application, you might see references to our work with wine merchants, or you might even read some things about the Olympics.

I wanted to clarify a few things.

TRUE:

  • True: Triggit places in-text links automatically
  • True: Triggit is FREE to use
  • True: You can use Triggit alongside any other advertising platform.
  • True: A 3/4 of the Triggit employees sold pins at the Athens Olympics in 2004

FALSE:

  • False: Triggit has a WYSIWYG web application
  • False: You can place YouTube, Flickr pictures, and Amazon affiliate links with Triggit.
  • False: Triggit’s office dog is named Fido.  (NOPE, It’s Jackson the best dog this side of the Mississippi)
  • False: Triggit no longer directly connects wine merchants with wine blogs.

Should you have any other questions to see if they are True of False don’t hesitate to email me at rdunn@triggit.com.

Have a great day!

Bobby

Newsletter

We have been absolutely slammed lately as you can see by how bad we have been about posting on the blog. But here is the latest newsletter that went out today.

Greetings from Triggit,
Hopefully this autumn is treating you well. We have a couple quick news items for you.

1. You can now manage how many Triggit ads show up on your site. Using the “Adjust Links” tab in the publisher interface you can now decide how many Triggit links you want showing up on your site.

2. Triggit now has an alpha version of our self-serve interface for advertisers. Now any advertiser can sign up with Triggit and buy clicks with their credit card quickly and easily. Give it a try yourself and buy some traffic for your site.

3. Triggit now has a bunch of new advertisers. We have been signing up new advertisers as fast as can and we now have quite a few new customers. You should be seeing quite a few new ads appearing in the next few weeks.

Please don’t hesitate to let us know if you have any feedback or ideas for us. We are always happy to hear from you.

Thanks
Team Triggit
