WebAdverts keeps track of exposures and click-thrus for each banner, as well as of the average total number of exposures per day. Banners can be weighted to control how often they are displayed, and can automatically be expired from the rotation after a designated number of exposures, click-thrus or days.

Rating: # of Ratings: 5   User: Santana Rating: November 27, 2000   User's Avg. Rating: # of Ratings: 9   Very easy to install and configure, but hard enough to customize the looks. User: BobDaul Rating: November 11, 2000   User's Avg. Rating: # of Ratings: 3   Very difficult to install and buggy. I will look elsewhere. User: wcvw Rating: November 06, 2000   User's Avg. Rating: # of Ratings: 3 Vermont, USA Great script! I only wish it were easier to have multiple banners for one account. User: Vio Rating: October 24, 2000   User's Avg. Rating: # of Ratings: 2 Lithuania This is a great script if you are planing less than 100,000 exposures per day. With 100,000 you will need something more than P-2 466 with 400Mb of RAM. Perl code is not optimised, but the rest is done very cool. User: mirvine Rating: September 25, 2000   User's Avg. Rating: # of Ratings: 3 Texas, USA WebAdverts rocks! User: lizalee Rating: September 22, 2000   User's Avg. Rating: # of Ratings: 1 California, USA A little tricky to set up at first but once it was working, it's been rock-solid! User: janw Rating: September 20, 2000   User's Avg. Rating: # of Ratings: 4 Netherlands User: napier Rating: September 12, 2000   User's Avg. Rating: # of Ratings: 7 Oregon, USA This script is great. Anyone with even just a small knowledge of installing perl scripts can install this one. When finished they have one of the best scripts for banner rotations available, regardless of the price. I use this and other scripts from the same place and have never gone wrong. User: ArtL Rating: September 11, 2000   User's Avg. Rating: # of Ratings: 12 USA Incredible support on their forum. I got it up and running in 4 hours. It handles SSI, non-SSI, I-frames and J-script. User: WebGuy Rating: August 27, 2000   User's Avg. Rating: # of Ratings: 3   Very great script. The documentation isn't too detailed. A little bit of PERL knowledge is required. The web site needs to be updated much more. User: GecKo Rating: August 21, 2000   User's Avg. Rating: # of Ratings: 3 New Zealand Good script, but some things don't work. When you reset the exposures, it doesn't reset. User: jmetro Rating: July 22, 2000   User's Avg. Rating: # of Ratings: 1   Was a bit difficult to set up. I think the instructions could be expanded upon. You don't have to include SSI tags and rename all your pages to shtml, which is golden (my server required that). Once it's up, it seems pretty solid. User: mazola Rating: July 17, 2000   User's Avg. Rating: # of Ratings: 1 Canada Killer script. Very configurable and efficiently implemented. Highly recommended. User: Zoommasterx Rating: July 13, 2000   User's Avg. Rating: # of Ratings: 6   Although a bit overwhelming at first site, the instructions are actually extremely detailed making the script seem harder to use than it actually is. Best exchange script I've seen. User: webmbi Rating: June 14, 2000   User's Avg. Rating: # of Ratings: 5 Virginia, USA I have been running this script on my site for four months now, without a hitch. User: NeilSkirrow Rating: June 10, 2000   User's Avg. Rating: # of Ratings: 12 United Kingdom This script is an absolute work of genius! It handles over 6,000 hits/day from my site without even a sign of slowing down! All it really needs is keyword targetting and it would be fantastic!! The writer should get an award for this!! User: BenMcCall Rating: May 16, 2000   User's Avg. Rating: # of Ratings: 2   This program can be used on a windows NT server. My only complaint is that I cannot seem to find any way to look at the number of hits to any one page when using the same banner ads on multiple pages. User: Idle Rating: April 28, 2000   User's Avg. Rating: # of Ratings: 1   Great resource, all you could ever want, new scripts need to be added and some dead links need to be removed. User: balour Rating: March 18, 2000   User's Avg. Rating: # of Ratings: 1 Canada User: ChrisJHurl Rating: March 10, 2000   User's Avg. Rating: # of Ratings: 1   Plenty of features, but 75% of the time the script caused an internal server error and didn't show an ad. Not very good. User: Arvanon Rating: February 23, 2000   User's Avg. Rating: # of Ratings: 1 New Mexico, USA Was a bit of a bear to set up. However, once running, WebAdverts is a *very* powerful piece of software. It'll sure take a lot of time out of setting up banner rotations and setting up advertisers. User: Dann Rating: February 12, 2000   User's Avg. Rating: # of Ratings: 3 Ohio, USA Easy to setup and customize. User: BlAcKmAn Rating: January 26, 2000   User's Avg. Rating: # of Ratings: 2 Germany User: htmlguide Rating: January 19, 2000   User's Avg. Rating: # of Ratings: 8   Best advertising script I have ever used!!! Would recomend to anyone!!! User: AbelaJohnB Rating: January 18, 2000   User's Avg. Rating: # of Ratings: 3 California, USA I've heard a lot of people say this is a hard script to setup. I disagree. It has excellent resources within the scripts to help you out. The hardest part is setting up the "categories" to specify where certain banners are shown. And that's not hard, just time consuming. User: wrightog Rating: January 10, 2000   User's Avg. Rating: # of Ratings: 8   Great potential except that it uses too many server resources and slowed my site down considerably - once a more optimised Perl version is available it will be well worth the $50, but for the moment hold off on spending your money. User: MPoythress Rating: January 08, 2000   User's Avg. Rating: # of Ratings: 3 Alabama, USA Awesome! Takes a little setting up, but once you're done it is great. User: nymph Rating: January 08, 2000   User's Avg. Rating: # of Ratings: 5 USA This is a good script and very easy to set up. The reason most people are having trouble with this script is because they are not reading the doc's txt. The lastest version 2.13 is even better. User: hittjw Rating: January 04, 2000   User's Avg. Rating: # of Ratings: 1 Maryland, USA Darryl Burgdorf has done an excellent job on WebAdverts -- consistent updates, excellent core features, banner uploads, and a more than simple installation. We are using it at freebanner and it is holding up to the traffic! User: KhooBG Rating: December 27, 1999   User's Avg. Rating: # of Ratings: 7   User: splinky_0 Rating: December 26, 1999   User's Avg. Rating: # of Ratings: 13   User: helpnet Rating: December 18, 1999   User's Avg. Rating: # of Ratings: 1   The script doesn't work on some servers -- even though the permissions are set correctly and the data directory path is verified in the configuration files. That can happen. Unfortunately, these folks are VERY arrogant about it: "One of two things is wrong. Period, end of statement." Don't pay for this resource until you get it working on your site -- then it's probably a great script. User: RaphaelPala Rating: December 11, 1999   User's Avg. Rating: # of Ratings: 3 Germany User: Kagome Rating: December 06, 1999   User's Avg. Rating: # of Ratings: 4 Italy This is the BEST Banner Exchange program I ever found. It's quite easy to set up, and it has plenty of useful features! User: curtisj Rating: November 30, 1999   User's Avg. Rating: # of Ratings: 2 Georgia, USA Decent script, but a bit slow. The setup process was okay - though there is no excuse for requiring people to edit text files. User: Superweb Rating: November 06, 1999   User's Avg. Rating: # of Ratings: 2 Ireland User: cadsyst Rating: November 02, 1999   User's Avg. Rating: # of Ratings: 1   Good script, but a systems hog. My ISP shut it down. User: chrise Rating: November 01, 1999   User's Avg. Rating: # of Ratings: 1   Best advertising script I've seen yet! User: Craig Rating: November 26, 2003   User's Avg. Rating: # of Ratings: 33 Australia User: dog1000 Rating: October 11, 1999   User's Avg. Rating: # of Ratings: 3 Virginia, USA Great script with great features. A bit difficult to install, but definitely worth the small hassle. User: Christian_Korff Rating: October 01, 1999   User's Avg. Rating: # of Ratings: 2 Germany It's the best Link Exchange I have seen. User: qango Rating: August 31, 2000   User's Avg. Rating: # of Ratings: 4 United Kingdom Perfect 10 from me -- and I checked out 30+ ad scripts before settling with WebAdverts! User: AndrewJones Rating: September 18, 1999   User's Avg. Rating: # of Ratings: 9 California, USA Banners did not work for Mac Netscape users, didn't receive help with this problem. User: xaver Rating: September 15, 1999   User's Avg. Rating: # of Ratings: 2 Spain Very easy to install and good features... User: matpeterson Rating: September 11, 1999   User's Avg. Rating: # of Ratings: 1 Australia This is one of the best scripts that you can get. I highly recommend it. User: tnapper Rating: September 05, 1999   User's Avg. Rating: # of Ratings: 26 California, USA I almost got kicked off of a server for using this -- it eats a ton of resources and slows down your site. Lots of features though, maybe he can write a version with the features AND speed. User: Craigie Rating: September 02, 1999   User's Avg. Rating: # of Ratings: 3   Not easy to install. Has lots of features, but the design seems a bit poor. User: SJ Rating: August 26, 1999   User's Avg. Rating: # of Ratings: 6 United Kingdom This is an excellent script and well worth $50. User: deska Rating: August 22, 1999   User's Avg. Rating: # of Ratings: 1 Indonesia Best script for banner advertising and banner exchanges. User: eleonard Rating: August 11, 1999   User's Avg. Rating: # of Ratings: 1   It says that it is only Unix compatible but I set it up successfully on an NT server, works great too! User: woolf Rating: July 31, 1999   User's Avg. Rating: # of Ratings: 1   Best script! User: Cristcdl Rating: July 30, 1999   User's Avg. Rating: # of Ratings: 10 Ohio, USA This is a great script. It's easy to setup and it does a great job!!! User: katana Rating: July 29, 1999   User's Avg. Rating: # of Ratings: 2 New York, USA Wow! Very nice I must say. I am so glad I installed this. User: linkme Rating: July 10, 1999   User's Avg. Rating: # of Ratings: 1   This is one of the BEST banner rotation scripts I have seen and I have looked at about all of them. This one does not require SSI like most of them do, If you read the readme file it is not hard at all to setup and their message board is very helpful if you get stuck. This script is WELL worth more than the $50 they are asking for! User: CgiCoder Rating: July 07, 1999   User's Avg. Rating: # of Ratings: 8 Texas, USA I have used this script for almost 2 years and think it is excellent. A little tricky to install but works great thereafter. User: Nemesis280 Rating: June 14, 1999   User's Avg. Rating: # of Ratings: 1 Alabama, USA Although this script is quite difficult to setup, once done, it runs very well and has many options, including zones (where you can display certain banners on certain pages) and it allows new users to register their own banners. You can also set the script to confirm the new members before adding them to the rotation. I highly recommend this script for anyone who needs banner rotation on their web site. User: rancher Rating: June 11, 1999   User's Avg. Rating: # of Ratings: 8   Difficult to get setup, but great thereafter. User: netkomm Rating: December 19, 2001   User's Avg. Rating: # of Ratings: 83   User: Stevekn Rating: June 08, 1999   User's Avg. Rating: # of Ratings: 1 California, USA I had lots of trouble installing this script, even when it said I did it right! The author did not respond to my nice plea for help! When I went to the bulletin board, many people had the same problem, but no answers were listed! User: coolgraphics Rating: May 31, 1999   User's Avg. Rating: # of Ratings: 2 New Jersey, USA It was a good script, until my ISP decided it was gobbling up too much of their system resources and they shut off my cgi-bin. User: anachron Rating: May 30, 1999   User's Avg. Rating: # of Ratings: 19 Wyoming, USA Well, I had to wimp out and hire someone to install it after one too many failures. However, now that it's up, it is burning away like crazy! User: kresch Rating: May 26, 1999   User's Avg. Rating: # of Ratings: 4 Austria Easy to setup and maintain. Great that it doesn't require SSI. User: Stal Rating: May 25, 1999   User's Avg. Rating: # of Ratings: 4   Excellent advertising script, very easy to install, highly recommended. User: odit_tim Rating: May 14, 1999   User's Avg. Rating: # of Ratings: 1 Belgium It's the best web advertising script I know... User: webmasterc Rating: May 07, 1999   User's Avg. Rating: # of Ratings: 1 Michigan, USA Great script, only disadvantage is the fee. User: eznoh Rating: April 28, 1999   User's Avg. Rating: # of Ratings: 1   Hosting provider made me remove script because it was gobbling up system resources. Support is non-existent. User: brucehamilton Rating: April 16, 1999   User's Avg. Rating: # of Ratings: 18 Missouri, USA It was easy to install, but the banners never showed up. They only appeared as broken links. I gave up on it after a couple of days of trying to get it to run. User: tiger42684 Rating: April 14, 1999   User's Avg. Rating: # of Ratings: 1 Utah, USA Greatest ad script I've seen in my 2 years on the 'net! User: Anthonyy Rating: March 29, 1999   User's Avg. Rating: # of Ratings: 1   Very good and relatively easy to integrate. User: wirthit Rating: March 21, 1999   User's Avg. Rating: # of Ratings: 5 Colorado, USA This is absolutely an awesome script. It is a real pain to set up though. This can be taken care simply with another script called WebAssistant. After it is set up it really seems to be a powerful little guy. A great program. User: eboy Rating: March 14, 1999   User's Avg. Rating: # of Ratings: 2   While it took longer than expected to set up, it is still quite easy. I'm a greenhorn when it comes to Perl/CGI but I managed with minimum fuss. The docs could be clearer, but attention to detail will win the day. Overall, this can't be beat for $50. User: michael666 Rating: March 02, 1999   User's Avg. Rating: # of Ratings: 11 Illinois, USA This is a great non-commercial script. It's incredibly ugly as far as its output, however, it does the job of processing 10s of thousands of exposures keeping perfect track. For $50 you can't beat it. User: cctez Rating: February 17, 1999   User's Avg. Rating: # of Ratings: 4 Texas, USA Installed in an hour, customized in two... Great script for experienced users... Nice BBS for help and quick suppport... Needs HTML template, however... The code is lean and fast, but I did get some errors when I really taxed the script. User: RichardMyers Rating: February 10, 1999   User's Avg. Rating: # of Ratings: 1 Washington, USA Could use more frequent updates and added features for the price. User: Naidu Rating: January 31, 1999   User's Avg. Rating: # of Ratings: 6 Russian Federation Nice script and great for a banner exchange. The button next to the banner like LinkExchange makes it all the more authentic. Documentation is insufficient and some concepts are difficult to understand but on the whole it can be installed easily. Only two scripts to configure and three for the whole setup. User: JJ Rating: September 27, 2003   User's Avg. Rating: # of Ratings: 6 Connecticut, USA Although the script has many good uses, we had to debug it before using it, as well as change the HTML. It also ate up most of our resources. User: infinity Rating: February 27, 2000   User's Avg. Rating: # of Ratings: 20 California, USA Good, solid, powerful script. However, due to its dbm nature, WebAdverts is rather limited in how many banners it can display. User: Grafix Rating: January 22, 1999   User's Avg. Rating: # of Ratings: 2 New Jersey, USA Really nice script. I have been playing with it for a couple of days and it seems to be pretty solid. Only advice I might have is to spruce up the design a bit. User: David4 Rating: January 17, 1999   User's Avg. Rating: # of Ratings: 1   Top Class! User: JohnSlade Rating: January 13, 1999   User's Avg. Rating: # of Ratings: 8 United Kingdom Excellent ad rotator. Very easy to set up and customize. User: siusum Rating: January 11, 1999   User's Avg. Rating: # of Ratings: 1 Hong Kong Well, this script is very easy to setup, I had to get it to rotate many banners and a link exchange. But the code is very long, I don't understand what they do and I am a perl programmer too. This script runs very fast. Hope that the readme file can improve as I don't understand what the group is used for. More security is needed! User: pavka Rating: November 07, 2000   User's Avg. Rating: # of Ratings: 9 Bulgaria It could use some better administration and installation and usage help, but otherwise is quite useful. User: bunni Rating: January 06, 1999   User's Avg. Rating: # of Ratings: 27   This is an incredibly powerful and complex script. It is not really difficult to set up, but I have worked with people who thought they didn't have it set up right because it really takes some thinking through to grasp how all the elements work together. This is one script where you need to read everything on the website (there's a message board) and print out the docs, then go through it step by step. It's well worth it.
