How Itty Bitty Ads Works

Itty Bitty Ads is a co-op advertising network. Members advertise. Members support. Everyone wins.

Your 3×3 IBA page

Every member has an IBA page with 9 spots in a 3×3 grid:

  • 8 paid spots — priced by visual focal point.
  • 1 free rotating spot — the bottom-right 9th spot, powered by impressions.
$8       $10       $8
$7       $12       $7
$5        $7     FREE

Prices are fixed and never change.

Join through a member’s page

When you join through someone’s IBA page, their paid spots start on yours. If you do not buy a spot, that holder’s ad stays on your page and keeps spreading when others join through you. If you do buy it, your ad occupies that position on your page, and you become the holder later members pay.

The less often your spot is selected, the more pages can keep showing it. When it is selected, you receive the direct payment and still keep the spot on your own page.

Join in these steps

  1. Pay the yearly website maintenance fee to IBA ($25/year). Fill out the payment form with your payment details. Until IBA confirms them, a payment wall stays in place.
  2. Select 1–3 paid spots from a member’s IBA page whose payment methods match yours.
  3. Pay the current holder directly the fixed price of that position. IBA is not involved in that payment.
  4. Submit a screenshot of the ad-spot payment. The holder has 3 days to confirm. If they do not, IBA can approve from your screenshot. When approved, your ad occupies that spot on your page. The holder keeps theirs.

You may purchase a maximum of 3 spots. Together with your free ad, you can display up to 4 of your own ads on your IBA page.

When you own a spot, future members who want that position pay you directly. There is no commission to IBA on those payments.

The 9th spot — your free rotating ad

Every member gets one free advertising position. That ad has an impression balance.

Every time that ad is displayed in the network rotation, 1 impression is deducted. When the balance reaches zero, your free ad stops rotating until you earn or purchase more impressions.

How you earn impressions

  1. Show your IBA page. After your yearly fee is current, a qualifying view of your page earns you impressions.
  2. Refer new members. Each qualified member who joins through your IBA page earns you 5,000 bonus impressions.
  3. Purchase impressions through IBA at any time.

Show IBA → earn impressions → refer new members → earn bonus impressions → get more advertising exposure.

Fair-view rules

  • You cannot earn impressions by viewing or refreshing your own page.
  • One qualifying unique visitor can generate only one impression per page per time window.
  • Visitors can still browse and refresh; extra loads just do not add credits.

Ad approval

Every advertisement must be approved before it can be selected, purchased, rotated, or shown. Ads are:

  • Pending — waiting for IBA review. Paid spots show an availability placeholder until the ad is approved.
  • Approved — eligible to display.
  • Unapproved — hidden. Editing the ad returns it to pending. Unapproved free ads are left out of rotation.
