Your own ad server. Serve, target and get paid — on your terms.
AD is our ad server: publishers sell their own ad space directly, advertisers launch targeted campaigns directly, and both sides see real numbers — impressions, clicks, spend — without a third-party network taking a cut you never see.
Reach the sites you choose, directly
No auction, no black box. Pick zones, set targeting, launch — and see exactly what each impression and click costs you.
Direct campaigns
Buy ad space on specific sites and zones, not a blind bidding pool. You choose where your ad runs.
Real targeting
Country and city, browser language, device, operating system, referring page, schedule and frequency cap — reach the visitor that matters, not everyone.
Clear reporting
Impressions, clicks and spend, updated continuously — never a number you have to take on faith.
Turn your traffic into revenue you control
Monetize your site
Sell your own ad zones directly to advertisers, on a site you already run.
You set the price
CPM, CPC or CPD — your zones, your model, your price. You keep 80% of every sale and request the payout when it suits you.
One tag, every format
A single snippet serves image, video, HTML5 and text creatives — no separate integration per format.
Nothing to paste
The zone can say where it belongs and our tag creates the slot — no template editing. On WordPress there is a plugin: install it and it registers your site by itself, without you typing a key.
Ads that wait their turn
The usual complaint about ad networks is that they make sites slower. This one is built the other way round: your page loads first, and the ad slot never moves it.
They wait for your page
By default the ads are requested only after your page has finished loading and the browser has a free moment — never competing with your own images and scripts. You choose the timing per site, from the panel.
The slot doesn't jump
While the ad is on its way, the space is already reserved and marked. And the height is learned: from the second visit the slot is exactly the right size, so nothing on your page shifts when the ad lands.
One tag, and never again
The snippet carries no version number. Every improvement on our side reaches your site by itself — you don't edit a template, and no visitor is left on last year's code.
Six formats, and every way to aim
Formats
The same single snippet serves all of them; the zone decides which ones it accepts.
- Image. PNG, JPEG, GIF, WebP or AVIF, with a fixed size or responsive.
- HTML5. A ZIP with your own animation, served sandboxed and click-tracked.
- Video. MP4 or WebM, muted autoplay, with poster and a sound button.
- Text link. A headline and a line of copy, in the zone's own style.
- Interstitial. Full screen, and you decide when: on a link, after N pages, or on the way out.
- Your own code. HTML and JavaScript of your own, with macros — reviewed by a person first.
Targeting
Set it once on the campaign; every creative inside it inherits it.
- Where. Country, and down to region and city.
- What they speak. The visitor's browser language — not the site's, which is what lets one site serve many.
- What they use. Mobile or desktop, and the operating system.
- Where they came from. The referring page has to match what you set.
- When. Start and end dates, on the campaign or on a single creative.
- How often. A cap per visitor, plus hard limits on impressions and clicks.
Both sides see the same numbers
If you advertise
You pick the zone from a marketplace that lists its site, size, formats and the price its publisher set — no auction. You buy volume up front by impressions, clicks or days, from $5, and you spend it from your For Hosting balance. Impressions, clicks, CTR and spend update continuously, grouped however you need: by creative, campaign, zone, site, the page it came from, or which button was clicked.
If you publish
You set your own price on your own zones and keep 80% of every sale. Your share adds up in the panel as orders are paid, and you request the payout when you want it — by PayPal, bank transfer or whatever we agree. Running your own ads on your own zones costs nothing.
Everything the panel does, the API does too — campaigns, creatives, zones, orders and reports, with a key you issue yourself. Read the documentation →
AD is live — start today
Sign in on forhosting.com and choose “Manage my AD” in your account menu: your panel opens with campaigns, creatives, zones and reports. Publishers paste one tag and start selling; advertisers pick a zone and launch. Every creative passes a quick manual review before it serves — that protects the sites your ad runs on.
AD, in plain terms
What is AD?
It's our own ad server: publishers can sell ad space on their sites directly, and advertisers can launch targeted campaigns directly — without a third-party ad network in between.
How is this different from ad networks like Google AdSense?
With a network, you don't choose who advertises or exactly what you're paid — the network decides and takes a cut you can't see. With AD, publishers set their own price and keep 80% of every sale; advertisers buy directly from the sites they choose.
Do I need to be technical to use it?
No. Publishers paste one snippet to serve a zone; advertisers pick zones and targeting from a panel. We run the serving, tracking and reporting for you.
What ad formats does it support?
Image, video, HTML5 and text ads, plus full-screen interstitials and your own code — all served through the same single snippet.
How do I start?
Sign in and choose “Manage my AD” in your account menu — the panel opens right there. Placements on your own sites are free; buying zones on other sites is quoted at the publisher's listed price. If you'd like a hand, message us on WhatsApp at +506 8863 9000.
Will it slow my site down?
No, and that is a design decision, not a promise: by default the ads are only requested once your page has finished loading and the browser is idle, and the slot reserves its space beforehand so nothing jumps when the ad arrives. You can change that timing per site from the panel.
