What is OpenX?
OpenX is the world's most popular free open source ad server. It was known before as Openads, and even better known as phpAdsNew. The OpenX motto is "Take Control Of Your Advertising", and that's exactly what this software enables webmasters, website and business owners to do. Using an ad server like OpenX allows you to manage campaigns and maximize ad revenue from your existing inventory.
Overview of OpenX consulting services by Erik Geurts
I can provide assistance, support and advice for almost all aspects of using OpenX, including:
- Installation and configuration: I will install and configure OpenX on your website or server. I can get it done in a fraction of the time it would take you. Plus you'll be sure it's setup in a way that allows for easy future upgrades and maximum performance and stability.
- Quick checkup of your existing installation: I can inspect your existing OpenX system and report back about observations and any recommendations I may have. I will even include an proposal for implementation of my recommendations including time and cost estimate.
- End-user and Administrator Training: By training and educating OpenX users and administrators, you can be certain everyone is making the best possible use of the software's features. A training session for a new user usually lasts 1 hour to 90 minutes.
- Advanced applications: OpenX has a lot of advanced features that require some carefull planning and implementation. I can help you setup and run geotargeting, site section targeting, demographic targeting and other types of functionality.
- Website integration: OpenX can be especially powerful when it is integrated with your website. For example, on a WordPress powered site you can target ads to the various categories to allow advertisers to place their ads next to the most suitable articles.
- Version upgrades: When a new version of OpenX is released, I can perform the upgrade for you, with minimum downtime and risk. Because of my vast experience in this area, you can be sure the upgrade is quick and finished in less time than it would take you.
- Scaling: When you're starting to reach the limits of your existing installation in terms of performance and stability, I can help you with some easy to implement but very effective scaling. With just a small investment, your OpenX system will continue to shine.

Experienced OpenX consultant
Why hire me as a consultant? I have a lot of experience with OpenX and have worked with over 100 clients on a large variety of OpenX projects. I personally started using OpenX in the fall of 2003, and joined the OpenX Community Forums in May 2004, looking for additional information. It wasn't long before I realized I had answers to other people's questions too. In 2005, clients started asking me for OpenX consulting work, and this turned out to be so much fun that it even became one of reasons I could start my own full time consulting business in early 2008. I'm one of the few officially recognized OpenX Community Consultants in the world.
