				The Geo-Targeting Craze
			 Although this may not be much of a prediction, allow me to here and now say, I predict a major increase of geo-targeted ads in tours, pop-ups, webcam ads, and dating sites in the adult industry. It's not too hard to figure out why. Geo-targeting ads are quickly becoming the next big thing. Why? Because they get the surfers attention and curiosity. What is geo-targeting? Simply put, by using a surfer's IP to determine information about them and use it towards the ads they are shown while visiting your site. Targeting your audience by geography means using region-specific advertising, and with more and more countries getting online, geo-targeting is a method you will surely see being used more and...

				 | You're right. Ive been fascinated by this for a long time now, and yes. going to impliment this in the near future. Before it was even doable, I was questioning if it were possible. BTW, whenever I see one, ,it always has "Newport Beach" which is the exact city I live. It's not a very big city either.  |

 i think the tour uniqueness will appeal to many but what happens when they are looking for people in Newport Beach. As you mine is narrowed down to the city.

 its not hard to geo-target zipcodes in the US and display ads. so if you can identify the zipcode of an ip, thats way enough info to locate that city on a map or in a database.

				 | no one is saying the shit is new. fuck, ive read articles about this since 2001-ish? the point is its blowing up, like it or not, agree or disagree. ask coders and designers who work these boards daily and see whos buying what for the next trend.

 They publicly released the "iframe ads" first, but I offered them the ability to utilize our Geo marketing graphics a couple months back and they declined because they were already in development - kudos to them for their efforts. I think what we have brought to market is superior in generating eyeballs, however. We are supposed to be a business of SMART MARKETERS, all the naysayers and "this isn't MY CITY" people are missing the point. If it's accurate only 70% of the time and doubles or triples click-thru rates and revenue- wtf? Just use it!  | |

				 | jstyles, let me know when you got something for the common man and not big sponsors. ;) you know, designers (like me) could really use this type of program. not knowing code is a hard thing when trying to keep up with current trends in design such as this. some can design or code, few can do both.

 I was in and out of meetings today and I received a call regarding your post. We discussed having YOU develop some designs and utilize our app to show examples of how this could benefit ANYONE!  The ease of use is almost rediculous. The application was developed for designers with no need for additional programming! Hit me on ICQ for authorization and let's discuss!

				 | The GEO:IP Apache module is nothing new and those of us who saw the advantages of geo filtering both their traffic and ads dynamically embraced this method of marketing more than 4 years ago. The fact that it is only catching on among the general webmaster / affiliate program populous now shows just how old this technology is and, unfortunately, you have missed the boat for making any serious money utilizing this technology. Welcome to the year 2000 finally  Regards, Lee |

 Your arrogance amazes me! LOL Are you saying AFF isn't worth a grain of salt? You can't be serious? Regardless of how long the technology to sort by IP has been around - it is no matter. I personally believe the ability to generate these ads in this manner is worth a lot more today than you seem to be willing to give it credit for. I'm sure AFF could argue that point to the amount of thousands of profiles and sales per day MORE than they were generating just 1 short month ago! That's only one small example. BTW - You seem to forget you live in this tiny little "gay adult" world. Adult is a smidgen of the $$$ to be made from Geo-marketing. Gay adult an even smaller smidgen.  I'm presently working on implementing a huge deployment of Geo-Marketing for a leading online lending exchange that connects consumers with lenders and realtors. This company has facilitated nearly $90 billion in closed loan and real estate transactions since 1998. Please get down off of your high horse, ok?  | |
