Hi, I'm considering doing ad removal for my board but I am trying to get an idea of what the cost will be and having trouble figuring it out. I understand that it's currently $0.18/1,000 page views, but I am not sure how many page views we (swiftysgarage.net) get on a weekly basis. I know it's fairly high. Just trying to determine the feasibility of going this route. Also, would a Zetaboards Premium subscription affect this at all? I see that it removes some advertisements but not all. Thanks, Rob |

Hi there, I would be happy to supply you with a small amount of ad credits to do a little case study for you. Having Premium will not change the rate that ad credits are depleted (even if a page had 2 ads on it, only one credit is used for loading that page with no ads). Best practices for ensuring ad removal lasts as long as possible include not enabling ad removal for guests and ensuring that any codes which load pages in the background use the force_ads URL variable. If you open up a support ticket, I'll set up a small number of credits and we can see how long they last! |

Thanks! I appreciate that offer. Unfortunately I'd need to see a pretty large sample size I would think to get an idea of what a weekly or monthly cost would be. With my experience in analytics with other products, I've found that views can vary drastically on a day-by-day basis and you need at least a couple of week's worth a data to get anywhere near enough information to plan this out. That said, I'll go ahead and fill that ticket out just to see what happens. Not enabling ad removal for guests would go a long way for us though I think. I didn't know that was an option. Is that a simple checkbox somewhere in the admin CP? |

We're happy to give you a small sample so you can get a rough sense for what it would be like. Obviously we're aware that this will not necessarily be the rule, but it should help you get a ballpark idea of things. Yes, ad removal is configurable as a per group option. See this documentation for more information!
