I did all this, now how do I log in ?
Your email is your USER NAME and you know your password. Since you are a publisher, you must log in in the UPPER Login for Publishers.
Mind you, you could also be an advertiser. You would have to log in in the LOWER area for ADVERTISERS
Can I register more than one website ?
Yes you can. Inside of your admin page there is a button which says
Add new website to your account
Bare in mind that your next website might have more or less traffic than the first one you registered, therefore your price per Block may vary. You are able to select the price at which you wish to sell a Block for each site individually.
Can I have more than one grid on one website ?
Yes you can. However, when you register your URL the grid must be within that exact URL otherwise you have to register the exact URL route (Including extensions) where one can find your grid.
Can I place the grid wherever I want within my website ?
Yes you can but remember, in Advertising is exactly as it is with Real Estate: Location, location, location. This is what the advertiser is looking for. In any case wherever you place the grid you must register the exact URL route to it.
Can I view who is advertising on my grids ?
Yes. On your admin page you can see exactly who is advertising and how many clicks they get.
How do I know what my earnings are with each ad ?
You can check this out on your admin page too. However, bear in mind that as spelled out on our Homepage, Advertisers get FREQUENCY DISCOUNTS. The more days they buy, the deeper the discount. Your earnings are calculated after the discounts.
How do people find out about the grid(s) on my site(s) ?
As more publishers join our network each day our visibility increases. When advertisers come to our site, they will find you in our list of Publishers: BROWSE PUBLISHERS
What becoming a Publisher in the PixelLinkster network can do for me or my website ?
For one, you can pack many, many more advertisers on one grid than with regular text ads, therefore make more money than with regular text links.
Secondly when you link to us we are linking back to you, therefore as Search Engines consider the strength of WHO is linking to you your ranking goes up and you go up in the search.
Thirdly, we will soon implement a Webring of all of our publishers by categories as well ass a general Webring of all our publishers. Hence further helping your traffic.
How do ads get sold on my grid ?
1) At the bottom of your grid there is a link which says Your Ad Here with PixelLinkster
By clicking there, visitors to your site will land on your Information page where they will be able to see your prices, the list of your websites and will be able to buy right from that page.
2) You can also ad this button on your page by pasting this code on various places of your site but best is right below or above your grid

3) Or advertisers can come to you through our site and by browsing our publisher’s list they will decide whether or not your site fits the target they wish to reach and if the price is right. See suggestions.
4) Now bear with us…. We just started. Soon we will start our own advertising campaign to attract advertisers to our network. And… Hey! You can also let your friends know about your grid and us.
Blocks of pixels are so small, how can one know that it’s a link ?
As people see the small icons or blocks of color on your grid, that will not failed to peek their curiosity as astonishingly demonstrated by the www.milliondollarhomepage.com who is at the origin of this Pixel Micro-Adlinks Industry. Since its inception in July 2005 more than 10,000 pixel sites have sprung up and growing.
When visitors to your site will pass over the occupied blocks on your grid their cursor, a bubble with the description of your site (The one you wrote down or will write down on the form) will appear instantly. When they click, they’ll land on your site.
So what makes PixelLinkster different than a typical Pixel site ?
It is not what makes us different. It is mainly that you become a Pixel publisher and that you are offering to many, many advertisers the opportunity to target your site and your visitors and to be on your homepage. They will gladly pay you for it.
You can also refer your friends to us by joining our Referral Program. When they become publishers on our network, you will make a handsome percentage from what is sold on their grid. No we are not an MLM.
Why would I have my direct competitor advertise on my Homepage ?
You won’t unless you wish to accept it. Each time an advertisers intents to purchase space on your grid, you will receive an e mail asking you if you Accept or Reject the advertiser. You have total control of who gets in or who doesn’t.
Where do I put how many different ads are allowed in the grid ?
Remember, you choose the size of the grid. Each size has a different quantity of Blocks (Squares). Potentially you can have as many advertisers as there are Blocks. However, some advertisers might wish to purchase so many blocks for so many days, according to their budget and advertising schedule.
Example. Lets say that you decide to charge $1.00 per square and per day. An advertiser buys 5 square or Blocks for 10 days. He will pay 1 x 5 x 10 = $50. And he pays in advance. Now remember, the more days the advertiser buys, the better his rates. See Frequency Discounts
What happens when the number of days an advertiser buys are over ?
Simple. His/her ad is automatically erased from your grid. However, the advertiser can purchase more days if satisfied with the results it gets from being on your site’s grid.
What happens if I decide to shut down my website ?
To avoid problems with Advertisers we will pay your earnings 60 days after you reach your minimum requested amount. Should you shut down your site, you will only collect for the advertisements that have come to their term. You will not collect for advertisings that have not come to term, although revenues are paid in 30 days increments. See Rules However, you accept responsibility of your actions.
Can I remove an ad if it has not come to term ?
No. You will be held liable if you do it. As we pointed out, you have the right to reject the ad within 24 hours of the purchase. Once you have accepted the ad, you are bound by the terms of the purchase.
How do I calculate at what price I could sell the Blocks on my grid ?
Frequently Asked Questions For Advertisers
