Some Great TTZ Media Integration
TTZ Media has been live for only a few days and already I’ve seen some great integration into affiliate members’ websites. I figure I’ll use this post to show off some the techniques a few of the affiliates are using to highlight TTZ Media ads.
Integration Is The Key
TTZ Media ads are no different than Google ads in the sense that you have to make them look like part of the site to get maximum results. This is why we’ve made the ads so customizable. We are the only ad network that allows affiliates to control the font style and hover link color. Check out the integration by these affiliates.
- Track Recalls
- Photoshop Tutorials
- Woot! Agent
- Tech Review DB
- Latest Gadgets
- Planet XBox360
- HardCoreWare.net
Embedding The Ads Into The Article
TTZ Media works best if you embed the ads right into the article. This is especially true if your article matches the very item the ad is showing. You can see a great example of this in the review of the ATP Electronics Pro Mx 4GB SD card by Futurelooks. Futurelooks made the ad look like part of the article by labellings it as “Real-Time Price and Stock Check.” A reader would see this as more of a service than an ad. Here’s another examples by Blue Tomorrow and Think Computers.
The Shopping Guide
Don’t have a product on hand to actually review and write about? Try creating a shopping guide and recommend some products that you have used in the past. TTZ Media is ideal for shopping guides because it’ll show your readers where to buy the products.
You can see an example of a shopping guide using TTZ Media ads over at OCIA.net. Their Performance System Buying Guide, Mainstream System Guide and Budget System Guide has done very well for them. The cool thing is as new and better products come onto the market, you can add them and update the guide for an instant new article.
We’re coming into the holiday shopping season and people loves shopping ideas. Why not make use TTZ Media to create a holiday gift guide? You can see an example of last year’s gift guide at The TechZone. I know a few affiliates will be making Black Friday guides using TTZ Media ads. The list can be endless. Thanksgiving gift guide, Christmas gift guide, gifts for dad, gifts for students, gifts to kiss and makeup, etc.
When TTZ Media ads are used as part of a shopping guide or embedded as part of a review, the eCPM can get as high as $12. It goes through the roof if you can get the review/guide to the front page of Digg or Slashdot. If you haven’t taken advantage of it yet, you should.

I am sure with the ability of changing your font style and hover color, publishers will appreciate it better.
Reply to this commentHaha, exactly. I just joined — I didn’t realize it was out until a few minutes ago. ::turns red::

Reply to this commentI have to say Planet Xbox is the best one I definitely wouldn’t have thought to goto some of the sites for games if i hadn’t of seen that advertisement.

Reply to this commentGreat stuff and good ideas
Thank you for the post since it helps my site’s integration also!
Reply to this commentLooks like a good system, not as clunky as widgetbucks and integrates well into the page. Recommended if you are writing reviews for technical items or clothes etc.
Reply to this commentI’m glad that I can integrate TTZ ad into Adsense so I don’t need to paste the whole codes every time when I want to add a TTZ ad into a page. Good job, John.
Reply to this commentJohn, I signed up when you first announced it was open to members, but I haven’t heard back yet.
Reply to this commentI see the ads on your blog.
Reply to this commentHey John,
I like what your doing with TTZ Media. I’ll look more into it and I’m leaning into signing up.
Cheers,

I wish I had the right niche blog for you ad network. Maybe one of these days I’ll be able to use it.
Reply to this commentI’m not sure why I can place Google Adsense ad and let the text run down the left of right side of it dependent on whether I align it left or right; I don’t know why, when I use the 250 x 250 TTZ ad, it didn’t let me do that. The ad shows up on top and the whole paragraph then move down. Did I do something wrong?
Reply to this commentTry enclosing it with a div tag. Email me if you don’t understand and I’ll send you a sample code.
Reply to this commentPlease send me the code. I tried to put the div between the main code but it didn’t work. Thanks. I’ll change it tomorrow evening after work.
Reply to this commentJohn, I have emailed you the code. Where is the sample? It looks ugly compared to Google Adsense. I’m waiting for your sample code and thanks.
Reply to this commentI figured I would post and let everyone see how I integrated

Reply to this commentOnly reason I haven’t joined is because TTZ doesn’t really fit with the blogs I run since they aren’t Tech related.
Reply to this commentI just implemented it into my site. It looks good… I’ll have to tweak it a bit more tomorrow when I have more time. I hope the impressions convert well.
Reply to this commentCheck out this integration

and it’s getting better!
Reply to this commentAdbrite also allows to change ad appearance by CSS, font, color, you name it!
Reply to this commentThese ads look extremely good. If you have a gadget blog, then placing these ads at the foot of each post will work wonders.
John, are these ads only limited to displaying three price compressions per product, or one can increase/decrease this?
Reply to this commentOne more ‘bug’ John. If I use Adsense plugin, I don’t need to worry that when I edit something, TTZ ad would disappear. Every time after I edited it, all the code lines wrap up into a paragraph and the ad didn’t show up. That’s why I was so happy yesterday when I could use the adsense plugin. But since I need to add the to the code, I tried to paste the codes in to the code editor but again, after saving it, the ad did not show up since all the lines wrapped together like a paragraph. Please send me the new code John. The one that I could place it in adsense plugin. Thanks.
Reply to this commentI need to add the to the code
Reply to this comment====>
I need to add the (div) pair to the code
Right now I have them in a couple of places on my site, but nothing targetted yet. Tonight I will be searching actual products that I have mentioned (not concept ideas and crazy things that I also write about) and will then be adding TTZ Media ads to each of those posts.
Reply to this commentInteresting ads!
Reply to this commentMaybe i’ll try them too!
my integration is doing quite well for me so far…better than adsense anyway

Reply to this commentTTZ Media looks great when integrated right, maybe I should sign up.
Reply to this commentI have not fully integrated the ads into my site but they are performing very well. Much better than widgetbucks did!
When will the onsite FAQ be updated? I have so many questions that are not answered. Is TTZMedia CPC or CPA or a mixture of the two?
Reply to this commentTTZ Media is CPC.
Reply to this commentWow John great work with the ttz media, I can see your evil
empire spreading 
Good Luck
Vijay
Reply to this commentI will try them soon with one “future” project.
Reply to this commenti’ll be installing the code to my blog tomorrow, i’ll track it and see how it’s work since auction ads not really working out for me.
Reply to this commentCPC = Cost per click right? So it is something like google adsense?
Reply to this commentAnyway, i am not verified already for TTZ! Ill install it asap! Thanks John Chow my guru for blogging. You Made it easier and happen for me.
Cheers John, thanks for the link. You are the best!!
Reply to this commentYup, very similar to auctions ads. You can check out the ad layout, it’s cool with it rating i think
Reply to this commentI also signed up to TTZ media on my site, at first I chose to keep it low profile, however I have now chosen to place a small ad in selected posts. Thanks John!
