WordPress Plugin for Those Stripe Ads

You know those stripe ads that are turning up on a lot of blogs these days? They don’ take up much space, but they catch your attention. At least, they do for me.

Anyhow, those Stripe Ads are available as a WordPress plugin from MaxBlogPress.

Stripe Ads from MaxBlogPress

You can get a free version of the plugin, but it has a link on the right that reads “Powered by MaxBlogPress.” You can see an example of this stripe ad at The Real Tim Jones site.

I learned about these ads while sitting on a panel with Tim at BlogWorld Expo, as he talked about using them to monetize his site (thanks Tim).

I’ve got the paid version of the Stripe Ad plugin running on my blog and I’m rotating some different messages to see how it does.

I like this option for subtly running some affiliate links a whole lot more than banners all over the place.

One word of warning, though. I tried it on FeedFront.com, which uses a paid Revolution theme, and the stripe ad totally whacked out the tables in the theme.

I’m sure there is a tweak there, but try the free version to check compatibility before upgrading.
