Darren, an… interesting side effect of this post is that I get a number of trackbacks from site which just republish yours :Þ
(a few URLs available on demand, just mail me if you’re interested, although I suspect you just cannot really deal with them all)

I created a somewhat similar plugin for Kontera ads. You can keep kontera ads off posts for a set number of days and also out of posts in certain categories. I didn’t include any other choices like whether or not the visitor came from a search engine. I wrote this because a blogger friend wanted it!

Great idea! I’m going to have to take a look and figure out the best way to use this on my sites.

I use a similar plugin, called “MoreMoney,” that only shows ads to people who have come from search engines. My CTR on those ads is nearly twice that of my second best performing channel.

That’s a wonderful way to micromanage your ads… Although I don’t know how I’d even set it up to display..

Still Sounds good though!

Very Cool.

One other idea I’ve heard (I’m not sure if the plugin supports this) is giving members of your site who have donated (say, $25, one time fee) to your site an ad-free pass. I’ve been looking for something that would do such a thing and this interests me.

I’ve installed this and use it to determine whether I show a “single post” adsense block or a “home page” adsense block, and whether regular readers see adsense.

There’s lots of potential, but there are also some great room for improvement!

Excellent! I’ve been searching about geotargetting ads all day today and ending up wasting hours with the over complexity of OpenAds and I think your plugins will save me!

I think that would be great to ‘reward’ regular visitors.

Hm…
Nice!
Thanks for the heads up! I’m going to use that one!

I’m going to end up using it to serve a few purposes.
I’m going to have a ‘Subscribe to my RSS feed’ for new visitors. A ‘Welcome Back’ for regular visitors. And ads in the posts for search engine visitors.

I may end up with more uses though.
Again, thanks for the heads up!

Appears to be a useful plugin. I think can be used to give a sense of personalisation to visitor.

nice find. This is certainly something I will check out. I’ve found http://shylockblogging.com/ shylockadsense plugin amazing for adsense injection.

Looks like a great plugin. I’ve been displaying “in content” ads only to search visitors for a while now and I’ve found that it really boosts CTR without annoying regular readers or those coming from other blogs.

It’s a good way to generate some revenue without making a site look spammy.

Colin » as stated on the plugin page, you can geo-target easily if used with my plugin “IP to Nation”. There’s an explanation on the plugin page.

Guys,
is there a way or a plugin to geo-target, like to only show ads to USA/CAD visitors, if they are not from there it shows different ads?

thanks
