Hi Raymond...

Where do you set the Datasource Username and Password? On a shared
environment I'm going to need set this in the script, but some quick
searching through your scripts and I cannot locate a base dsn area...

I was thinking on just these lines the other day. I can't wait for
Viux to update my reseller package which will be tonight, so I can
play with this application since it runs 7.0. It runs exactly with my
frame of thought and if you read on you'll see what I mean.

>From the Webmasta point of view:
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
You never want to give away advertising for free on your website but,
how much is that space really worth? Then again when people are
purchasing ad placement by impression or like sites like Albany.com
which is a per/year structure. You wonder if letting the advertisers
fight over certain areas of the site could generate more revenue than
maybe just hosting google ads.

>From the Advertiser point of view:
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
I loved being in control of my adds Before moving back to Saratoga
Springs, NY I was E-commerce Coordinator for Stratton Mountain Resort.
What I loved most about that spot, outside of my office in the welcome
center, which was home to my Hayes Brothers Snowboard, was buying
advertising on websites. Sure google adwords were ok, although I saw
huge advantages in Overture aka Yahoo vs google in ROI, and stragicic
placement of ads on websites outside of those networks.

Take http://www.industrybrains.com/ as an example... they host ads on
sites like usatoday, travel & leisure, golf.com amongst others. I
loved the fact that i could bid on the placement of my ads.  It was a
mini adwords campaign... Now lets take sites like Boston.com, which
are pay per impression and you want a homepage ad... They quote you a
package deal since your advertising in their newspaper but your still
running your ad for Thousands of $$$ more then other sites where you
are in charge of your bidding style with more qualified leads. Sure
your getting Millions of Impressions but... You in Marketing know what
I'm saying.

I could go on, and on, and on... Long story short, it's Pay per Click,
not Pay per Impression.  Let your advertisers fight over the space and
let your sales team sell your site, not what the ROI is going to be
for the advertiser.

Thank you Raymond, I look forward to checking this out soon!

Casey Dougall
