We know the money can be tight or non-existent when it comes to renewing your Minecraft® server's hosting. With Adventurize™, you no longer have to worry. Our goal is for all server owners to be able earn the required funds to keep their servers running 24/7, simply by displaying unobtrusive ads within the game.
No player theft - Adventurize™ will NOT display ads for other servers
Earn money every time one of your users clicks an ad
Set how often you want ads displayed, and to whom
Entice all users to donate by providing an ad-free game experience only to donors (with a simple permission)
Withdraw your earnings via Paypal or Google Checkout - no minimum withdrawal required
This looks promising, however it'll be useless unless you can get a large number of publishers and advertisers to participate. I've seen this concept implemented before with MineAdvert however that project looks like it's abandoned because it couldn't get enough people. I might check it out later but for now I'll just bump your post

Our user base is on the rise, both in terms of servers participating and in advertisers interested in the service.
Now, My question to the project, what happens if you put the ads on your server, Can another server post ads on your server? or is it only hosting companies, etc.

We have filters in place to disallow servers from advertising on other servers, we're not about to let mass player theft occur. So the ads will be taken out by companies such as hosting companies, minecraft tools and apps etc...
Does this service cost money/how does Adeventurize profit from this?
Edit: I believe your website is down...
Advertisers pay to have their ads displayed on servers, we then take a small cut of what the advertisers pay, and then give the rest to the server owners.
We are pleased to announce that over the course of the past month Adventurize has been working with advertisers and has now begun running real ads, thus allowing server owners to begin earning money. - Read the full newsletter here
This service has TONS of potential, and I have already earned $0.81 in a day! I say this excitedly, because my bills are $20 a month, and if I earn money at this rate we will never need donors again!!

However, that said, this service needs to work on the Anti Player Theft part; http://imgur.com/1idhkKL
But, the advertised server is pretty awful, lol, so I am not too worried.
Hi tdbulldog,
Glad you are earning in order to help keep your server funded, and running. We are busy working on increasing the number of advertisers, and income for servers owners.
I would like to sincerely apologize for that server ad that appeared on your server, we do our best to remove them, but every so often one slips through. We are working on improving our filters and making the entire system more automatic. Sent you a PM with more details and a bonus.
Hi, I have a Minecraft Server and I've followed your instructions to setting up the Adventurize plugin on my server, and copied in the Auth key, but none of my players can see any ads...
I have also NOT put the adventurize.hideads Permission node in any of my Server's groups. Please Help! Armytricks
P.S. The error message is [14:18:18 INFO]: No Adventurize ads to display.
and I live in the UK
Hi Armytricks,
Our system is currently undergoing major updates and so ads have been paused. We will be back up and running later next week. Sorry for the downtime.
Would you be willing to have it set up, so that every time an ad is displayed to a user, a command is run from console? What I am wanting to do with this is make it so every time an ad is displayed, the user could be rewarded a Diamond, or maybe $500 if I have an economy set up. However, the reward would not be given if someone has the hide ad permission. That way I can reward my users for seeing the ads.
I have recently set up Adventurize on my server because i have heard that it is a great way to pay for server costs. I know how Adcraft bombed and is now terrible, so i want to know 1. Why wont this do the same? and 2. you said " We will be back up and running late next week" this was posted on Jan 1st, it is now 10 days later, so is there ANY status update as to when it might be now? since the old estimate was incorrect.
Anyway, thanks for at least letting us know now! Would've been nice if a message was on top of the site, or an email came in. I didn't get any email personally.
Hi iM3shyS, part of the system overhaul that we are hard at work on is an increased number of status notifications. So personal emails will be sent out in the future once the system overhaul goes live. Sorry about that.

Hi tdbulldog,
This is definitely doable, and I'm adding it to our todo list so we will look into it further after the launch of the system overhaul.

Hi dragonsjet,
Glad to hear the word about Adventurize is spreading. As to your questions:
1. Why wont this fail? - I'm not entirely sure as to how Adcraft bombed, but one major advantage that Adventurize has over Adcraft is that we do not allow servers to Advertise and now have excellent filters in place to prevent such a thing from happening. This attracts more server owners as they would like the money earned, but definitely do not want their players stolen. And the more server owners we have, the more interested our advertisers will be, and the more they will pay, and thus the more Adventurize server owners will earn. That, combined with the many other features of our system, and most importantly, we have a very dedicated team behind this project, with the skill, expertise, and commitment to assure we don't tank.
2. I apologize both for the delay and the lack of a status update last week, things have been hectic. Ads are running again. As we are still in the beta phase though, with major developments and overhauls underway, there will unfortunately be delays. And during the next couple of weeks there will be certain periods where we are down for updates, so there will undoubtedly be fewer advertisers than normal during that period. That being said, after this next major overhaul, we expect to leave the beta phase, and it should be smooth cruising from then on. We appreciate your patience during the beta phase.
I do have one question. Say an advertiser bids 5 dollars for an ad spot. Is that 5 are distributed between every server that shows the add? How are earnings calculated basically.
Is your server low on funds?
