Points per Ad click
 
i'll tell you what i want, what i really really want.

nobody seems to take any notice of my google ads. i get a few pennies for impressions but the real money maker is clicks.

would it be possible to set up a way that users clicking an ad would recieve X amount of points?

the flip side to this would be buying "no ads for X days" with your points.

That would break TOS for offering incentives for clicking ads.

But that sounds like a good idea if you have individually sponsored adverts.

:)

yeah, obviously it could be used for stuff other than google's ads. rotated banners & such.

Like xspazx said, google would frown upon that and it may or may not be legal to actually do.

But, its entirely possible to make a feature add x points inside of a php script that then redirects for a banner ad that is not google.

All u'd have to do is make a simple php file something like:

redirect.php
Code:
<?php
// ######################## SET PHP ENVIRONMENT ###########################
error_reporting(E_ALL & ~E_NOTICE);

// ##################### DEFINE IMPORTANT CONSTANTS #######################
define('THIS_SCRIPT', 'redirect');

// #################### PRE-CACHE TEMPLATES AND DATA ######################
// get special phrase groups
$phrasegroups = array();

// get special data templates from the datastore
$specialtemplates = array();

// pre-cache templates used by all actions
$globaltemplates = array();

// pre-cache templates used by specific actions
$actiontemplates = array();

// ########################## REQUIRE BACK-END ############################
require_once('./global.php');
require_once('./includes/functions_vbplaza.php');

// #######################################################################
// ######################## START MAIN SCRIPT ############################
// #######################################################################

// increase the user's points
vbplaza_quick_add_points($vbulletin->userinfo, 100, '');

// jump to the url
header("Location: " . $_REQUEST['url']);
exit;
?>
I havent tested that, but it should work. Then when the link is created for ur ads, it will need to jump to this php file like so... <a href="redirect.php?url=linktogoto"><img src="...."></a>

Again, google would be mad about any abuse of TOS, please read them before doing any kind of hacks like this.

Just so I understand the redirect link I put the php link first (where the file is on my site) then the website link second (ad site) correct?
