Creating Your Own Pixel Advertising Site

   By: Marvin Gorospe

As I promised in my previous article "Pixel Advertising - A new trend in Online Advertising", this is a guide on how to build your pixel ad site. The best part of making this site is you don't need to buy an expensive script; all you need is the cost of registering a domain and web hosting.

To make it easy for you to follow, I organized it step by step.

Step 1

Register the domain name you will use for the site.

Step 2

Prepare the web hosting account for the site.

Step 3

Create a mysql database and user in your hosting account. Make sure the database account has full access to the database. If you are using cPanel, just click on the mysql icon.

Step 4

Download the FREE pixel ad script at www.pixeladraptor.com and uncompress it to your PC.

Step 5

Locate and edit the file config.php and enter the details of the mysql database you created in step 3. You will also have to enter an admin user account and password.

Step 6

Using an FTP program (I use smartftp, its FREE), upload all the files to your site. Iif you want the pixel site to run in the root domain (www.xxx.com/, you have to upload the files in the root folder (usually in public_html). If you want the pixel site to run on a subdomain or specific folder, you have to make sure you upload it to the right folder.

Step 7

After uploading the files, access the admin site which is under www.yourdomain.com/admin/ using the admin account you entered in Step 5.

Step 8

Click on the "Settings" tab and enter all the details asked on that page.

That's it.

If you installed the scripts in the root domain, you will be able to access the pixel ad site by typing www.yourdomain.com. If you installed it in a subdomain, enter www.yoursubdomain.yourdomain.com. If you installed it in a specific folder, enter www.yourdomain.com/yourfolder/
