You can further boost your visibility with our many NexAds options. With our detailed statistics displays you can follow the responses your ads are getting through the other member boards as well as your own strategically placed NexAds. Your NexAds page allows visitors to comment or contact you via the options on your page, allowing for easy interactions with interested users.

There is a field in your NexAds Control Panel that allows you to edit the URL of your site in our system. Your access and displays will not be interrupted by this edit.

Answer

The NexusBar is displayed on your site and randomly rotates a display of links of every member site on our roster. It is the powering engine that makes you a part of the Nexus system.

Answer

The NexusBar is a single, discreet row of links that appears at the bottom of your site. You can configure it to integrate to the look of your site according to the colors you choose for your NexAds in your NexAd Control panel. This allows you to style it in a way that is complimentary to your site. See the bottom of our page to view our Planet Nexus NexusBar in action.

Answer

When a user hovers over the links on the NexusBar, a tooltip appears with the same text that you provide for your dynamic ads. In effect, this puts not only your link, but your ad on every other subscriber board in the system. Your participation in NexAds allows you to promote your site in many locations at once, with easy and simple updating as desired. You provide a compelling ad, and the system spreads your message for you.

Answer

Your blurb appears on the top of your NexAds page and is a way to get a short message out quickly and easily. You can update your blurb at any time in your NexAds Control Panel. Users can comment on your blurbs in your comment block. You can also link to your MyPage where your Blurb is published, or you may use the Blurb feed link or imbed code to promote your Blurb on your site.

Answer

Any visitor to your page can add a comment by providing a valid email address. Any one who has a Gravatar will see it displayed by their comment by using their gravatar email address. You can obtain a free gravatar by signing up for one at Gravatar.com.

Answer

Spam comments will never appear on your page unless you approve them. When you see you have a notification that new comments are waiting, go to the Comments section of your NexAds Control Panel and click the Moderate Comments button. The panel that opens will give you options to Edit, Approve, Disapprove, or Delete individual comments waiting for approval or already posted to your page. You also have the option to turn off commenting at any time.

Answer

As a NexAds subscriber, one of your perks is that you can easily install a link to the Contact form on your own website. On your NexAds CP page, use the Email navigaton button to take you to the Edit Contact form section. Get the link or the embed code for your unique contact form. Your Contact form comes equipped with the same enhanced spammer protection that we use on the NexAds system.

Answer

Absolutely! We will be adding functionality and features as we see the new system roll out. You can help shape those feature developments by submitting your thoughts and ideas in our Feedback area of the Support forum.

Answer

On any of the system pages, your page can be accessed by the MyPage button at the top of the page when you are logged in. On the support forum, your page link will appear in the top System dropdown list when logged in, and always appears in your profile and miniprofile next to your posts. On your own site, the X-icon to the left on the NexusBar is another link to your public page.

Answer

Sorry, not at this time. It may be something we can address in a future update if there is enough interest.

Answer

If you no longer need the NexAds service for your site, contact an administrator via the support forum and it will be deleted from the system for you. You can request a complete deletion of your account, or you can remain a member of the support forum. Let us know your preference.
