- nailer 10y agoMaybe there's a market there? An ad network content providers can trust. Even well known news websites have ios app store redirects that stop content from being viewed.
- spiderfarmer 10y agoThere has been a market for years. But it takes scale to pull it off. I hoped Facebook or Microsoft would jump into it, but that never happened.
- masukomi 10y agoThere are far too many attempts at this. There are almost no successes, and frankly i wish people would stop trying to make new ones and start working on consolidating existing ones into one that actually had enough publishers to act as a real player.
- Hondor 10y agoAdblock Plus tries to do that https://adblockplus.org/acceptable-ads https://adblockplus.org/acceptable-ads
- dhimes 10y agoMaybe what we need isn't an ad network, but a service that makes it easy for sites to self-host ads. Like some sort of gateway- I'm thinking adapter pattern- so that advertisers build their ads to a certain spec, and the web site plugs them in. The ad isn't served by a third party, just spec'd by it. We'd also need a plug-and-play payment pattern.
- marcosdumay 10y agoThat gateway is an ad network. Now, if it was an open standard without a gateway, it would be a different beast. But fraud would kill it.
- dhimes 10y agoNo- the ad isn't served by the gateway. It's not an ad network. It's a standard (open or not) combined with the service to help advertisers conform and site owners to plug them in. Like itunes for ads. Ad networks seem to be immune to fraud. Large companies will pay to have their brands seen anyway; us small guys take the hit.
