Moving Ads With Css Layout On Free Hosting CSS help

Recommended Posts

It sounds like you want to remove a banner that is enforced on your site by a free web host. Here's some things to think about and reasons why you shouldn't try to disable the banners.

Why are you using a free web host that enforces advertising banners? You are at Xisto, banners are not enforced here, only forum posting which you seem to be able to do. Although, your post content could be improved, it is somewhat brief.

 

Disabling a banner on a site provided by a free web host where they enforce banners is more than likely an act that will see your account cancelled, is this what you want? Free web hosts depend on advertising to cover the costs of providing the service, if they permit their users to disable the advertising, they will have nothing to covers the costs of providing the service and the service will no longer be provided. It's that simple.

 

Even though Xisto does not enforce advertising banners on the free sites they provide, they do enforce posting on their forums to keep your account active. It is in the forums where Xisto have advertising that covers the costs of providing the free hosting. By enforcing posting in the forums, they ensure the banners are being viewed.

So my advice is, if you want to remove enforced banners from your web site, move your site to a free host provider that does not enforce them on your site, such as Xisto.

I agree with Avalon, why are you using other free hosting plans when you can use Xisto? It's alot better than most of the free hosting plans out there, without banners.So if you don't want any more banners on your site, then move here or find a hosting without the banners (which is very unlikely).

Yes, the banners are the reason that your provider gave you the free service in the first place. That's one of their main sources of revenue right there, banner ads. By removing those ads you're almost definitely going to have your account deleted, and that's never ever good. :P

deleting a banner on a free host is usually a big no-no. Unless ur hosted by trap or someone that doesn't require ads. don't do it. If u still do, can u see if the banner is there through php script? because then u can just do it easily.

I agree with sangdukseo. Deleting or hiding a banner is a very very big mistake. You will likely lose your hosting very quickly... Switch to Xisto...or...if you are looking for something else, check out: http://forums.xisto.com/no_longer_exists/ (which is actually how I found Xisto, and everything is great here!)

I concure going to a ad hosted free hosting is not going ot help you out and plus it makes the website look ugly as well. So get your ad free hosting here and your good.

As has been said, removing ads from free hosts will probably get your account terminated, but I did find out today how to do it in CSS. If the ads are contained with elements that have a class or ID, in your CSS you set those elements to display:none, e.g.

div#adcontainer { display:none; }
You just have to look through your page and find out what names your provider is using to contain the ads. :P

Thank-you very much for this! I was looking for a way to do this for a Webs (webs.com) website.

I just changed the code to match the DIV tags. :D

 

div#google_ads_div_user_728x90_ad_container { display:none; }
