Intellitxt VS Text Link

[Corey]

Now that we've had intellitxt on for a week or so and people have got to see it. What do you think? Would you rather switch back to text ads or would you want to stay wtih intellitxt?

If we do switch back to text ads I'm going to have to implement some rules about ad placement. Placing the text ad in 5 size font in the footer of a page mixed with a bunch of other info does not help us at all. New rules will probably be, it must be above the fold and it can not be smaller than the text size you are using for the rest of your page.

Also note that the text ads might not always say x10 or something you've currently seen. We will sell that ad space to advertisers. That means you will have text ads for a wide range of websites unlike how we used to have just Free hosting by x10 and a link for free file sharing.

Let me know what you think.

I voted for Text Link...
I prefer text link rather than intellitxt. But it's your desition..

 

[Timhortons]

I hate intellitxt. Most annoying thing ever. I like the text ads.

 

[Micro]

Most annoying thing, the intellitext ads NEVER worked on my website. Ever. So go intellitext!.

Seriously though, i wouldnt mind having a text ad the same size as my page font, its just that i want to advertise this site, and not skimp off with free hosting for absolutely nothing.

I can't vote as I dont have a voice in this. But it is your choice Corey. I say inteli is better in some ways and then in some ways the text ad's are better.

 

[Chris Z]

well... from votes taken in another poll, maybe we should do intellitext for Corporate accounts and just the banners for Advanced accounts

 

[Fedlerner]

If it would be Intelitext for Corporate and banner for Advanced i'll go and pick the Corporate...
I prefer Intellitext than banner...

 

[Chris S]

if you want to be able to advertise on spanish sites, then i would go for the text link as i have almost never seen the intellitext on the spanish sites

 

[SEÑOR]

I dont know why anyone would inetlli it is soooo annoying. Always going over the wrong text and getting those popup things. Switch it back is what I say.

 

[cetutnx1]

My site is in spanish so i've never seen an intelitext ads and don't find them anoying...

 

[Colodro]

My site is in Spanish too and there is no Intellitxt in it, though I like the text link much more, and most users also do.

 

[Cynical]

Question: Would IntelliTXT ads be automatic? In other words, would the user have to put anything on their pages or would it be done without an ad code?

 

[Alejandro]

You wouldn't need to do anything... the code is the same...

 

[jensen]

Am voting for text link as that's simpler for my site and does not slow it down. The intellitext seems to make my pages load a little slower as it needs to connect with some intellitext server. Thought that it could be my computer or my ISP but other sites are ok.

So am thinking that the text link would be my choice.

 

[yahia]

Just make sure the text link ad won't link to adult site content.

 

[Corey]

We don't do porn advertising.

[Zenax]

ok, I am not affected by the Advanced ads, as I use the corperate plan,but I would rather see normal text links on a website, instead of intellitext ads, as they are simple, and in some respects better looking

[DrVonKatze]

I don't have problem with the intellitext, in fact I think I'd prefer it as I won't have to bother locating the code properly; but like a few others up here my site is in spanish, so I haven't seen any intellitext yet. Just thought I'd let you know that.

 

[mike16889]

my sites in English and haven't seen any ads yet ether but maby the codes wrong or something.

it shouldn't be i copied and pasted it directly into the pages so it should work.

 

[Corey]

Due to popular dislike of intellitxt we will switch back to text ads. Expect some new general rules from them soon though
