Adding subdomains

Discussion in 'Co-op Advertising Network' started by egdcltd, Jul 14, 2005.

  1. #1
    I have just joined the co-op advertising network and added the ads to my site. Because I have two sets of PHPBB forums running on my site, I added another account. However, I have just read in the FAQ that you can't have another account on another subdomain of your site. How do I go about adding the code to additional parts of my site?

    You need one account per subdomain

    Ah, I must have misunderstood. I thought you could only have one account per domain, not per subdomain.

    If you specify the URL of domain.com you must have ads on all pages of domain.com as well as on all subdomain pages of domain.com.

    However if your url is www . domain.com and you want to also show ads on subdomain.domain.com then you need to create a new account and specify subdomain.domain.com as the url. Basically you can have ads on subdomains, you need ads on all of them is your master account does not have the www (or any other) prefix

    You can't have more than one account per domain. It's either one subdomain or all subdomains. (At least it was last time I checked) ;)

    You can have Co-op on selected sub-domains. I have 100s of sub-domains but only have Co-op on a select few. You need an account for each sub-domain you want Co-op ads on and if you want ads on the main domain ensure that you have www as the prefix.

    I thought Shawn outlawed it because someone was cheating and getting double weight with 2 accounts www.domain.com and domain.com where www *wasn't* redirected to domain.com. (actually they didn't have 2 accounts, they were piggybacking on someone else's).
    My bad. I stand corrected.
