WordPress Ad Widget

Description

This is the easiest way to place ads in your WordPress site. Just drag a widget
to the sidebar, upload, an ad, and save.

Note: If you have an adblocker installed, it will prevent this widget (and parts of WordPress) from working properly.

  • Extremely intuitive for beginners
  • No clunky ad management interface
  • Easily place image banner ads
  • Easily place Google ad tags and other ad code

Troubleshooting

The Ad Widget is a very simple plugin. If you are having trouble
loading ads on your site, please make sure that:

  • You do not have an ad blocker installed (you would be amazed how often this happens). Disable it and refresh the page a few times to see if the ad appears.
  • You don’t have CSS in your theme which is hiding images (rare, but it happens)

If you have any other trouble, email kenny@broadstreetads.com – try to avoid
the WordPress support forums because they’re awful.

Installation

First: Turn off any ad blockers you might have installed. They prevent
ads from appearing!

Other than that, there aren’t any special instructions for installing this plug-in. Once
installed, go to Appearance -> Widgets, and look for the “Ad Widget” widgets!

You can also go to Settings -> Ad Widget for a video demo on how to use it.

I have been using Broadstreet's plugin for almost 3 months now and enjoy it tremendously. It is simple to use and very dependable. I couldn't think of using anything else.

This simply does not work. I am using the newest version of Wordpress and tried everything I could think of and it doesn't work. I was checking my website for ads in incognito so there would be no ad-blocker affecting my results.
