OIOpublisher Direct $17 Coupon

written by John Chow on April 21st, 2008

OIOpublisher Direct has given me a $17 coupon to save you money on a copy of OIOpublisher Direct Wordpress script. This is the best way for a blogger to sell his ad space privately because it automates the sale process.

I have always recommended new bloggers to use ad networks instead of selling ads themselves because of the extra work and customer service headaches. However, OIOpublisher Direct automates the ad buying process so you can concentrate on blogging instead of selling. With OIOpublisher direct, advertisers can order, pay for and upload their ads directly to your blog. The only thing you have to do is approve the ad. The script can be installed on an unlimited number of domains and also works with PayPal subscription.

OIOPublisher Direct sells for $37 but the final price will be only $20 once you apply the $17 coupon. To take advantage of this deal, order OIOpublisher Direct and then enter QWERTY-17 in the coupon field to take $17 off the selling price. Even at $37, this script is a no-brainer. At an after coupon price of $20, you really have no excuse not to buy it. If you can’t make back $20, then you really don’t belong in this business.

The $17 coupon expires on May 5th so if you want to take advantage of this deal, you better move on it quick.

  1. That’s a pretty good deal I’d say… This OIO plugin is a good quality plugin. I was fortunate to get in early and see it develop from the version 1. I’d definitely say good value no hype here!

    Best

  2. This is an absolute no-brainer. Even for small bloggers, this should be an automatic buy. If you’re not selling private ads yet because your blog doesn’t have much traffic, buy it anyway. Keep it on the back burner while you build up your reader base. After several months, if done properly, you will have high RSS subscription number, better rankings, and good SEO traffic. Then you can use this plugin to start selling private ads.

  3. I will have to test it out and see if ok with 2.5.. good post though.. thanks

  4. Any time you can automate a service or function (like private ad sales), you save yourself so much time, and it makes your own operation (like a blog) more efficient.

  5. I just hope that one day OiOpublisher will integrate 2checkout and other payment processors, I will be one of the first people to buy this product.

  6. Aha, i was waiting for some discount coupon for OIO
    Thanks man. :smile:

  7. Does it have a monthly subscription fee too? j/k. Great coupon.

  8. Thanks for posting this…I am going to use it now.

  9. Doh! I just bought the plugin last week at the regular price. Oh well, it’s still a good deal.

  10. I just read the Shoemoney blog on Google’s Ad manager – how does compare to that? Has anyone used both?

  11. That’s a lovely deal but I think that I have to pass now because my blog is jut new.

    Haha and apparently the review price there is only $400. Let me get my review right now lol.

    I don’t think John uses any of the crap he tries to sell all the blind newbies on this blog.

    BTW John, you always post your earning but never your expenses. How much are you spending on Adwords to bring people here? You are banned by Google and don’t get any search traffic and I know you spend thousands on Adwords. Fess up John.

  14. I’ve done just fine so far selling ads directly, even without a plugin. yeah, it takes a couple minutes to confirm that payment has been received and then to place the code into the page, but if you are confident in editing code, it’s not that big of a deal.

    Note to John, everyone got this coupon that has the plugin ;) This is a fantastic plugin though, it is my personal favorite and has saved me SO much time. Check out my blog post about the best monetization plugins you can use on a wordpress blog: http://www.thenetfool.com/wordpress-plugins-monetize-blog/

  16. I was going to buy this anyways, looks like I am going to right now. I hope that it is worth the money! I also hope that I can keep the ads I have showing unless someone pays, then it goes into rotation.

  17. Thanks for sharing. Signed up for AdSense on my blog. Never tried to sell ads direct or with anyone else. Guess there is always a start to everything.

    Hmm. I’m trying to decide between this & Google Ad Manager.

  19. I was definitely going to purchase this until I found out about Google’s Ad Manager yesterday. Being able to sub-in Adsense for open ad spots is going to be pretty cool………Guess it depends how long Google plans to take on this beta project.

    Anyone know of other advantages that the OIO might have over Google?

    • OIO has a new ad network partnership called ViralBlogAds coming

      This will enable you to fill default inventory with PPC ads automaticcaly, so you eanr n clicks and they are banner ads too, so will be VERY cool

    • Speaking as the developer of OIO, I’m not going to say it is a clear-cut choice. Someone like ShoeMoney for example, just switched to Google Ad Manager, because he has a lot of sites and simply wants to manage all the inventory in 1 place.

      Whilst you can do that with OIO too (you can define ad zones, and place them on other sites using javascript, using the Ad Server tab), it may not be as suitable for very large scale operations.

      As for google putting in adsense, as Colin says above we have an ad network partnership coming. But even without it, you can define default ads (image or html) to run until slots are purchased – adsense, Pepperjam etc – whatever you want. So I don’t think OIO is at a dis-advantage there (it’s possibly the opposite, given the choice).

      As far as other advantages go, I guess “we” are a lot more Wordpress specific – so you can put ads in places you can’t with Google’s offering. OIO automates the entire purchase process too, as opposed to just controlling inventory.

      We also have plans (and development work) that goes beyond just ad management, which may be of interest at a later stage, but that’s another story…

  20. Yatzee! This is literally one of the 2 pieces of software I’ve been thinking about buying this month. Nearly half off is even better.

    Well good, I’ve recommended this site at least 4 times in the last 2 days and this is one of those crystal clear reasons why.

    Yah Very tempting buy, i think i might wait for couple
    more reviews!

  22. The $17 coupon does make it an attractive offer. $20 isn’t much at all and if it can save you some time and make the process easier it makes sense.

  23. Thanks John, this is great. Was just about the buy OIO for the full price. Good thing I stopped by your blog and saw this post.
