Manage advertising from WordPress
Advanced Ads Pro is an ad management solution for WordPress sites that publish banners, advertising code, affiliate promotions, or other campaign content. It provides a structured workflow for creating ad units, deciding where they appear, and controlling when visitors see them. Ads can be embedded automatically without editing theme files, while manual options remain available for more specific placements.
The plugin supports advertising from networks and programs including Google AdSense, Amazon Associates, Google Ad Manager, Ezoic, media.net, Booking.com, Awin, and other affiliate or advertising networks named in the source. It also supports different AdSense formats, including text and display ads, native ads, Auto ads, and Auto ads for AMP.
Targeting, scheduling, and delivery
Advanced Ads Pro can rotate ads, schedule campaigns, and set start and expiration times. Display conditions can be based on individual posts, pages, post types, categories, tags, taxonomies, authors, post age, archives, front pages, attachment pages, and 404 pages. You can also target content by contained keywords or URL parameters, hide ads from bots and web crawlers, and control advertising in post feeds or secondary queries.
- Visitor conditions: Target or hide ads by device, logged-in status, user role, geolocation, referrer, capability, browser language, ad blocker, IP address, browser, or browser width.
- Timing controls: Use time-of-day targeting and frequency capping.
- Placement options: Insert ads after paragraphs, headlines, images, or other HTML elements, as well as at the top or bottom of content, in footers, and before closing tags.
- Responsive delivery: Display responsive image ads and target mobile, tablet, desktop, or selected browser sizes.
- Advanced formats: Use floating, sticky, popup, layer, interstitial, parallax, background, and page-peel advertising through the listed features and add-ons.
Optimization and measurement tools
The Pro feature set includes split tests, lazy loading, cache-busting, ad refresh, click fraud protection, ad blocker controls, and additional ad placements. The ad blocker module can show alternative content to visitors with an activated ad blocker and help prevent ad blockers from removing ads or disrupting plugin scripts. Tracking options can measure impressions and clicks locally or through Google Analytics when the Tracking add-on is used.
Additional integrations and add-ons extend the workflow. These include AMP Ads, Google Ad Manager integration, Sticky Ads, Fixed Widget for WordPress, PopUp and Layer Ads, Selling Ads, and Ad Slider. The plugin also supports ads.txt generation, including automatic addition of AdSense content, and can integrate with affiliate plugins such as Pretty Links, ThirstyAffiliates, and Lasso.
Installation and setup
Install Advanced Ads Pro on the WordPress website, create the required ad units, and select the advertising code, banner, or affiliate content to display. Choose a placement or use a shortcode, function, widget, or automatic injection option. Add display and visitor conditions, schedule the campaign, and configure rotation, tracking, lazy loading, or other Pro tools required for the advertising workflow.
