GeoDirectory – Get Paid Advertising (often listed as GetPaid Advertising) is a premium add-on for the GeoDirectory WordPress plugin ecosystem that lets you monetize your directory or website traffic by selling and displaying ads directly on your site — and use GeoDirectory’s billing system (GetPaid) to handle transactions and invoicing.

📣 What It Is

GeoDirectory – Get Paid Advertising is an official Advertising add-on designed to integrate with:
✔ GeoDirectory (the directory/listings plugin), and
✔ GetPaid (GeoDirectory’s payment/billing engine).

Together, they let you create ad zones, sell ad placements to advertisers, display ads on your site, and get paid for it directly through your directory platform — without third-party marketplaces.

💡 Key Features

🪙 Sell and Manage Ads

• Text Ads — simple linked text promotions.

• Image/Banner Ads — classic visual ads placed anywhere on the site.

• HTML Ads — embed custom HTML/JavaScript, ideal for third-party ad networks like Google AdSense.

• Listing Ads — special ad placements tied to your GeoDirectory listings (e.g., featured slots above search results).

📍 Flexible Display Options

• Create ad zones and place them:

  • via shortcodes/blocks in page builders

  • using auto-rules or theme templates

  • in key locations like headers, sidebars, between listings, or custom pages.

💼 Billing & Transactions

• Uses the GetPaid system so advertisers can purchase ad placements, get invoices, and manage billing through your site.

• You set pricing models by:

  • number of impressions (views),

  • number of clicks,

  • or time duration.

📊 Advertiser Dashboard

Advertisers can log in and:

• Create/edit their ads,

• Monitor performance,

• See reports/statistics — reducing admin workload and giving advertisers autonomy.

📌 GeoDirectory Integration

If combined with GeoDirectory’s Pricing Manager, you can:

• Attach ad zones to listing packages, so paid listings get premium ad visibility — for example, appearing above organic search results like paid placements in search engines.
