## Description

This is the easiest way to place ads in your WordPress site. Just drag a widget

to the sidebar, upload, an ad, and save.

Watch a short video demo: [https://youtu.be/E9CC3ZWOaLU](https://youtu.be/E9CC3ZWOaLU)

Note: If you have an adblocker installed, it will prevent this widget (and parts
of WordPress) from working properly.

 * Extremely intuitive for beginners
 * No clunky ad management interface
 * Easily place image banner ads
 * Easily place Google ad tags and other ad code

If you like Ad Widget and you’re selling ads, you might like our new [ad formats for 
publishers
 and salespeople
.

You will not find an easier way to run ads on your website!

### Demo

Watch a short video demo: [https://youtu.be/E9CC3ZWOaLU](https://youtu.be/E9CC3ZWOaLU)

### Troubleshooting

The Ad Widget is a very simple plugin. If you are having trouble
 loading ads on
your site, please make sure that:

 * You do not have an ad blocker installed (you would be amazed how often this happens).
   Disable it and refresh the page a few times to see if the ad appears.
 * You don’t have CSS in your theme which is hiding images (rare, but it happens)

If you have any other trouble, email kenny@broadstreetads.com – try to avoid
 the
WordPress support forums because they’re awful.

## Installation

First: Turn off any ad blockers you might have installed. They prevent
 ads from
appearing!

Other than that, there aren’t any special instructions for installing this plug-
in. Once
 installed, go to Appearance -> Widgets, and look for the “Ad Widget” widgets!

You can also go to Settings -> Ad Widget for a video demo on how to use it.

I have been using Broadstreet’s plugin for almost 3 months now and enjoy it tremendously.
It is simple to use and very dependable. I couldn’t think of using anything else.

This simply does not work. I am using the newest version of Wordpress and tried 
everything I could think of and it doesn’t work. I was checking my website for ads
in incognito so there would be no ad-blocker affecting my results.
