Really easy to use and works flawlessly. After trying various plugins I finally found a really good one, simple and very easy to use. Thank you for creating this plugin and hope that this plugin will continue to be developed and become one of the default plugins for wordpress

After testing under PHP 8.0 & WP 6.0.1 – i’ve got some errors and warnings in the backend, when i visit the ‘Analytics Overview’ and ‘Analytics Report’. It still works by the way. If i switch back to php 7.4.1 the errors & warnings are gone.
Thanks again for this great plugin!

Missing impressions when using iframe-ads. Would be nice to be able to see the impressions (number of times the iframe is loaded).

This is a plugin that reliably does what it promises in a straightforward way.
Plus the author provides a real five star support: before I even could try out his workaround for a question I had, it was turned into a new feature in a plugin update, all this within less than 24 hours. Wow!
I don’t have the slightest need to try out any other banner plugin. Thanks a bunch!

It is also light and perfect for a fast wordpress.
