What is a widget?
Widgets are little "programs" that can be installed on websites or a computer's desktop.
There are widgets that do all kinds of things and you probably already have them on your
desktop right now.
There are widgets that tell you the time, show the current weather forecast, display
streaming stock quotes, etc, etc.
In the case of adzly, the "widgets" you will be creating and placing
online are far simpler.
The adzly widget is simply a little "box" that
fetches ads from the adzly network and
displays them on your website.
You can choose either a vertical ad widget or a
horizontal ad widget
depending on where you are going to place it. If you want the
ads in a
sidebar, then choose the vertical one ... and if you are going to place
the
widget in the main body of your website (where your content is),
then the horizontal
option would likely be best.
You have probably seen ad widgets before because there are dozens of
ad networks
that provide these same kind of ad widgets for their
publishers to use. One of the
largest would be Google with their
adwords/adsense program. More than likely you
have seen the "ads by
google" box on many websites ... well, this is an ad widget
and this is
what you are going to be creating with adzly.
Now, before you get concerned that this is a really "techy" process
and that you won't be
able to do it ... let us explain (and show you)
how easy it is to create your adzly widgets
and put them on your
websites.
And if you're feeling a little scared about the whole process, well
don't be ... you you
can't break anything in here, so don't worry about
that. Just dive in and give it a go ...
it will make a lot more sense
once you have done it a couple times.
Simply follow the steps and choose your options ... we will create
your widget and
immediately give you a simple little piece of code
(javascript) that you can easily insert
into your website in just a
couple minutes. In fact, you can easily create a widget and
have it
running on your website in less than 5 minutes once you get the hang of
it ... it
really is that easy. get yours here!
