Custom Ads

Hi Guys

I have a separate ECom store (currently woo but will be moving to Shopify) and I want to create some product banners for my store and then have these appear within my blog posts as clickable banner ads. Essentially my blog users will see my ads within my blog posts.

I am using the mobile theme so I’d like to have them appear in the same advert slot as desktop (probably either 3-4 paragraphs down a post or at the end of a post).

Is there a way I can do this if I were to create a set of different banner ads for my store?

I am not bothered about using the ads slots to do this (if there is a better way) but I will not be using AdSense on my blog so I thought I might be able to use that functionality for my own ads?

Sorry if this is a stupid question. I’m keen to start promoting my own products across my blog posts.

Thanks

Hello!

You can add how many ads you can see if you access Newspaper -> Theme panel -> Mobile Theme -> Mobile ads: https://www.screencast.com/t/gsCMZSytz9
In the Article ads you can select after how many paragraphs the ad is displayed.
Hope that helps you!

Thank you!

Do I just paste in a URL of a picture banner I upload to my media file and that is what will display in the and space? Or do I need to add code?

Hello @Tinystepsbabyclub!

You need to add code there. Check also our guide from here: https://forum.tagdiv.com/using-other-ads-non-adsense-ads/

Hi Guys

I am revisiting this request as I need some further support, please.

The advice above is great, and I’ve added my banner image to each of my blog posts at the bottom of each blog (on desktop at the moment). You can see an example here:

https://www.tinystepsbabyclub.co.uk/pregnancy-signs-and-symptoms/

BUT….i need the blog reader to be able to click on the image banner (my ad) and be directed to my store URL (away from my blog). I have the gallery custom link plugin installed, which allows me to add a URL to an image in my media gallery. I’ve done this, but the URL associated to the banner is the destination URL in my WordPress gallery, obviously.

How can I have the reader be able to click through the image to my desired URL (www.tinystepskids.co.uk)?

Here is the code I have used to place the ad banner on my blog page footer:

<div class=”td-all-devices”><image src=”https://www.tinystepsbabyclub.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2021/09/tiny_steps_kids_banner_for_baby_club.jpg”/&gt;</div>

Thanks guys!
Sarah
