Getting started with WP Tag Ads 2.0
Posted on August 3, 2009
Here is a quick guide on how to put ads inside your WordPress blog using WP Tag Ads 2.0.
- First download WP Tag Ads if you haven’t already.
- Activate the plugin in your WordPress administration panel
- Place ad code inside one of your templates
Now that you have the plugin installed and activated, it’s ready to be used inside your blog.
Look below for sample code, this code can be placed in any template file.
With WP Tad Ads 2.0 there are 4 ad sizes, we will add more in the future to fit more blogs. Click on the ad size link to view the code.
Example
In your theme files, open single.php and locate the following code.
<?php the_content(); ?>
Place the following code directly after.
<script type="text/javascript"> <!-- wptagads_ad_campaign = "<?=get_option('wptagads');?>"; wptagads_ad_width = "728"; wptagads_ad_height = "90"; wptagads_ad_keywords = "<?= wptagads_tags();?>"; wptagads_color_border = "3c3b38"; wptagads_color_bg = "ffffff"; wptagads_color_heading = "82806e"; wptagads_color_text = "000000"; wptagads_color_link = "ffffff"; --> </script> <script type="text/javascript" src="http://www.wptagads.com/core/ads.js"></script>
This will add a 728×90 banner ad to all you blog posts directly after the post content.

Hi
How to replace “Ads by WP Tag Ads” by an another tag like “have a look on ebay auction”
Moreover, Can you update within this post the new size that seems to be available now ?
Other point is that the Ads from ebay through WP ads never fits to the tag description. How it can be solved ?
Your advice will be appreciate.
Best regards.

Glad I found this site! Putting together a news and info site on monetizing blogs and social media. The stuff I found here is great!

Hi. Nice pluging.
Installed fine.
When there are no tags the ads go properly to my backup keyword – nutrition.
Otherwise the ads are random – a lot of car ads, when the tags in the post appear to bear no relation to what comes up, and do not seem to do what is advertised.
Is this a fault?
Hope you can help as I want to keep this plugin active but not if it just gives chessy random ads.

Outstanding! I’ve been looking for a way of placing eBay auctions on my site that would contextually match each individual post. Thanks so much for creating this plug-in.

ads based on tags is a great idea – any plans to make this work with Amazon? Also can we turn off some categories that aren’t conducive to ads?
