    Just to get started .. My ads don;t work

    I made the root ad_network_260.php.

    I made the root ad_network_ads_260.txt (chmoded 777)

    I inserted the code (my files are in subdirectories) :

    It will not show up any ads, and i can not validate my site :)

    Any tips ?

    Why did you change this from the original setup instructions?

    Because my files are in subdirectories ... And the ad network file would be in another directory than my html file.

    THat's why i used an absolute path :)

    It wasn;t good ?

    Try it as a relative path.

    No matter. I used Server path :)

    /home/username/public_html/..... etc

    Works like a charm.

    I have another queston please.

    I would like to add a class="my class" to each link ..

    I have a red background and the links are white...

    You can have a look at http://www.webxperience.org .

    How can i do that ? Is it any possibility to modify the link generation mode, so that i can add that parameter ?

    Ads need to show on ALL pages within the base URL that Google knows of. So unless you want to disallow Googlebot from that cgi directory the Co-op won;t work for that base URL.

    I haven;t really understood that...

    Please try to tell me , if there is some kind of resolve to my problem.

    I really want to join the network.

    My Directory is all seo friendly, but some pages are cgi scripted .. the rate and review ones, for example.

    How can i bypass that ?

    Disallow them in the robots.txt file and make sure they are removed from the Google index (if you're willing to sacrifice those). That way the co-op spider won't look there anymore.
