Ad Eagle Suite

Ad Eagle Suite

Ad Eagle Suite is a complete, feature packed advertising management system. More than just banner software, with banner, text, Rich Media and HTML ads, Ad Eagle Suite has what you need if you want to keep your advertising management in house. It will be the last advertising management software that you buy!

Management is a breeze with our easy to use administration area, where you can manage your inventory from your browser. Our system was created with ease of use being one of our top priorities. You do not have to be an advertising executive or a system administrator to use Ad Eagle Suite. Add your clients, create a rotation, and add your ads. Once Ad Eagle Suite is installed on your server, you will be serving ads within minutes. And you don't have to worry about the installation process - free installation comes with every purchased license.

Want to test drive the system before making a commitment? Not a problem. We will install the FULL latest version of Ad Eagle Suite on your site for a free 15 day trial. After your 15 days is up you can decide whether or not you wish to continue using the software and purchase a license.

Now with multiple administrator logins, Ad Eagle Suite can be used as an advertising management solution for web hosting companies! Assign logins for each of your hosting clients, and they can have the full power of Ad Eagle Suite running ads on their websites, all managed from one central admin area!

Runs On:

Ad Eagle Suite was originally developed for Unix operating systems. This was quickly changed. It will run on virtually any machine: Unix / Linux, Win NT /2000 / XP Cobalt. Contact us if you have concerns about your operating system being compatible.

Unlimited Rotations:

Rotations are basically groups of ads. Ad Eagle Suite gives you unlimited rotations so you can serve different groups of ads to different websites or areas of your site.

If you have removed all of the banners in a specific rotation, but don't want to go through all of your html pages to change the calls to the program, that is quite alright. If a rotation no longer exists or has no ads associated with it, the default rotation will be used. When banners are again added to that rotation, it will begin functioning again.

With or Without SSI:

Can't or don't want to use SSI throughout your site? No problem. Ad-Eagle can run your ads without SSI and you still have the full power of Ad-Eagle. A non-SSI banner can be seen at the top of most pages within this site.

Banners Auto Expire:

Each banner can have it's own individual method of expiration. If you set it to expire by views, and set the number of views to be 1000, as soon as that banner has been shown 1000 times it will be removed from the database. If you set an ad to expire by clicks, it will expire when it has been clicked on the set number of times. You can also have an ad expire on a specific date.

But what if the client calls you up the next day, telling you that he/she was about to send you a check for another thousand views? No problem! When the program removes a banner it emails you the current information on file for that banner, so when Mrs. Smith calls you to complain about being removed from the rotation while she was in vacation at the North Pole, with no way to get a check to you, you can just cut the information out of the email, paste it into the administration area, and the banner is back in business. More on that in the Users Guide.

Expire by days, views, clicks or never...

As stated above, each banners method of expiration is set individually from the admin when you add the banner to a rotation. One field has a select box from which you chose the expire method, with a field to enter the number of days, views or clicks for that banner. Ads can expire by views, clicks, or even on a specific date.

If you allow more than one banner for a client you can simply split the totals between the banners.

Full Browser Based Administration Area

All functions are performed from an easy to use administration area.

The admin contains functions to:

Add new ads to selected rotations ( banner, text or HTML ads)

Add new rotations

View all entries in a rotation

View all ads in the system

View ads for a selected client

Edit ads

Suspend ads

Suspend a client

Edit a clients email address and password

Mail Billing Notification (Or whatever message you wish) to a client, including their stats for each banner

Remove a rotation

Edit default rotations

Edit system configurations

Add and manage sub-administrators

Client Stats Area:

Clients have a password entered into the system when their banners are added. At any time they can log into the client admin to view their stats. Once they enter the stats area with their username and password they are shown a page containing their banners, the views and clicks for each, the expiration method, and the number of days, views or clicks that are remaining for each.

They are also shown the total views and clicks for all banners, and the email address that is on file for them. The script can be accessed from any html page you wish to use as the log-in page, and if someone uses a username and password that is not found in the system, they are bounced back to the login page.

File Upload Area

This feature is just a little added convenience. In the administration area is an upload page with five file fields where you can upload your banner images from your computer. It reports file information for each item sent to the server, as do all other actions performed from the administration area.

Automatic and Manual System Backups

The standard version of Ad Eagle allowed daily backups. With Ad Eagle Suite you can set the backups to be executed as often as you like, using an "Every 'N' Hours" method. This gives high traffic sites even more protection. Working with text files, it is possible to lose data under heavy traffic if the server "burps" or hangs up, or otherwise misbehaves while a data file is open. You have a choice of automatic file backups ( without cron, though of course you are also able to use it if it is available to you ) or manual backups with the click of a button, or both !

If a banner's data file somehow gets wiped out, the system automatically replaces the bad file with the latest backed-up copy, without missing a beat. No broken images, and no hunting for the problem. This enables you to provide more assurance to your customers that if one of their banner's stats somehow gets corrupted, they will be replaced with the latest backed-up copies. So, if anything, they would gain a few impressions.

From the administration area you can set the time that you want daily back-ups to be done, turn them on and off, or do a backup any time you wish with the click of a button. A full report is then emailed to you, listing the banners that were backed up, and informing you of any errors, if any, that were encountered while doing the backup.

Display Banners In Other Scripts

If you have other CGI scripts that display generate pages, you can use the include_ads.pl file to show banners in these scripts as well. The program allows you to do this with very little effort, and of course the everything will operate the exact same way as when calling banners from normal html pages. Of course you can also use the non-SSI method to display ads in generated pages.

Add Text Beneath Banners

Adding text beneath your banners gives you the opportunity to say a little something extra. This system allows you to chose whether or not you want a banner to have this linked text or not. The text is linked to the same url as that banner. So you can add alt text, as well as the linked text, each saying something different about the product or service that is being advertised.

Text Only Ads

Ad Eagle Suite is not just for running Banner ads. You can run text only ads, using SSI, and have views and clicks tracked the same as with banners. The text for these ads is set when you install the system, and can be changed at any time in the administration area. Another option to offer your clients!

HTML & Rich Media Ads

Ad Eagle Suite allows you to run any HTML you wish as a functioning ad. This could be used to rotate plain HTML code such as tables, or to rotate rich media code. Again, views and clicks are tracked using the same methods as the regular banner ads. See the Users Guide for details on running HTML / Rich Media ads.

mod_perl Support

High traffic sites can run the ad serving scripts under mod_perl. This is highly recommended, as it greatly increases load time for your ads, and decreases the system resources consumed by the program. A properly configured mod_perl server can give you lightning fast results! We have clients serving millions of ads per day using mod_perl. For more information on mod-perl please visit http//perl.apache.org

Banner Attributes

When inserting standard banner ads, you can define the image width, height, etc. You can also add text beneath your ads which serves as a text link to allow you to say a little more in addition to the banner iteslf.

Anti-Caching Features

Ad Eagle Suite uses advanced anti-caching features to ensure that browsers do not show a cached copy of your ads, and that they are rotated properly on your pages.

Suspend Ads

Each banner can be suspended with the click of a button in the administration area. Then the ad will not run until you restore it, which also takes just a mouse click. More on that in the Users Guide.

Suspend Clients

A specific client can be suspended the same way as an individual banner. Their data remains in the system, and is still accessible to them in the clients login area, and to you in the administration area. Suspended clients banners are not displayed again until you either reactivate a banner, or reinstate the client.

Set hours and days for an Ad to run on
When adding new ads you may specify specific hours and days that you want this ad to run on. So, you could have an ad rotate from 9am to 5pm Monday through Friday, or any other combination of hours and days. We do suggest that you use this feature only as needed in order to keep the work the system does to a minimum. If you have hundreds of ads all set to run at different times needlessly, you are making the system work harder than need be.

Set ratios for each ad

When adding new ads you may specify a ratio for it. Setting an ad to 3:1 will cause the system to show this ad three times before moving on to the next ad in that rotation. Please see the Users Guide for more information on how the ratios work.

Expire on specific date

The standard Ad Eagle allows you to have ads expire in "N" days for banners that are set to expire by data. With Ad Eagle Suite, you instead set a specific date to have these ads expire on. No setting ads to expire in 30 days. Instead you select the exact date you want the ad to expire on: July 02, 2005 for example.

Start running later

This system allows you to add banners or other ads and have them set to begin running on some date in the future. So, if a client comes to you ready to advertise, but doesn't want their campaign to begin until the following month, you can still enter their ads into the system. You just set the ads to begin running on whatever date your client wishes to begin on!

Add Banners to Multiple Rotations

When adding banners you can now add to more than one rotation at a time. Each add still will be completely editable, but this makes implementing ads across multiple rotations a snap!

Default Rotations

Each rotation now has a default specified, so if you have rotations running different types of ads, or banners of different sizes, you can create default rotations to cover each of these and then when you can associate any existing rotation with the appropriate default. So, if you have a rotation of text only ads, and they all expire, you won't have to worry about a banner ad appearing in that spot if you have a default set that contains only text ads.

Installation Program

Ad Eagle Suite comes with a complete browser-based installation program. Just upload the package, run the install program, answer a few questions, and Ad Eagle Suite is ready to roll!

Code Generator

Generate the codes you need to rotate your ads from within the administration area. Then just paste it into your pages where you want your ads to appear!

Multiple Administrator Logins

Ad Eagle Suite has multiple administrator logins, allowing you to delegate your advertising management to more than one individual. This is extremely helpful if you have several unique areas in your website that you want to be controlled by different staff members. Each sub administrator can control the clients and rotations that are assigned to them. They do not see those belonging to other administrators. This makes splitting up the work of ads management a breeze, while still giving the "super user" full access to all clients and rotations in the system. Each sub-admin has their own username and password and does not have access to the system configurations. They can add new advertising clients and rotations and use the less critical configurations, such as assigning defaults for their rotations, suspending / reactivating clients, etc.

This feature also enables web hosting companies to offer Ad Eagle Suite as an advertising management system to their hosting clients. See the Users Guide for more information.

Email Clients

From the administration area, when viewing ads for a client, you can go to a form which allows you to send a customizable email to that client. The form automatically places their banner stats in the message unless you chose to take it out. This can be used for notify them of due payments, that their campaign soon needs renewing, or whatever you wish.

System Configs

All of the system configurations are editable from within the administration area. No need to edit scripts manually - just make your changes and click a button!

Third Party Ads

Ad Eagle Suite allows you to serve and track third party ads, such as those from Microsoft B Central, Ad Force, etc. Add them to the system like you would any other ad. Some will require you to use HTML ads so that you can insert all of there code - but that is not a problem of course.

Serve To Multiple Websites

With Ad Eagle Suite serving ads to remote websites is a snap. Just grab the code from the code generator in the admin area, and you are ready to go. License restrictions apply: Single site licenses do not allow serving to other sites.

Timed Refresh

Want certain ads to refresh automatically? No problem. The code generator now includes code for auto refreshing ads. Great for areas where a visitor spends a lot of time on one page of your site. You get to set how may seconds between refreshes.
