“The problem that I saw with regular banners is that surfers have been burned out on them and don't even see them anymore, but that little moving corner piece of real estate on a web page some how catches their eye,” Playboy webmaster Brett Gilliat, aka Vendzilla, said.
“The problem with any new webmaster tool is it has to be easy, the simple tools get used more,” Gilliat said. “I saw a couple other affiliate programs using page peel ads, but they used way too many lines of code and even had to put scripts in the head of the page. I put together a solution that uses only one line of code — drop it right before the closing body tag; that’s all that needs to be done.”
The page peels have been available since Monday, but Gilliat said that he had been testing them on TGP gallery JennasTGP.com, as well as checking compatibility with major web browsers.
“I had to test it in IE, FF and Safari, html and PHP extensions and it worked everywhere,” Gilliat said. “[The page peels] converted like crazy — just under four thousand uniques clicked and I got eleven sales, and that was TGP traffic.”
Playboy affiliates can access the page peel tools through the Playboy Webmasters program.
“There is a page set up on Playboy Webmasters with the code generated with each webmasters affiliate code in it; both for pay-per-sale and revshare a total of seven sites to promote plus Playboy Webmaster,” Gilliat said.
