Earn some money on your contests ☺

Possible widget types:

  • Image banner with a link
  • Html code
  • Facebook page widget

Additionally, in the add-on settings, you could:

  • Hide the widget on the mobile
  • Select a pop-up where to add the widget (vote, share, reCaptcha)
  • Select widget position: before/after content

The add-on allows showing AdSense code (in HTML mode).

Notice:

I provide no guarantees that using this addon will prevent your AdSense account from being banned. You use this addon entirely at your own risk.

From AdSense rules:

Ads in pop-up and pop-under windows

Publishers are not permitted to place Google ads in any window that is not initiated by intentional user interaction (e.g., click). Additionally, Google ads may not be placed in any web browser window that lacks navigational controls, including back and forward browse buttons and an editable URL field.

So generally displaying ADS in this way is not restricted (after user action).

Recommendation:

If you select an image banner, please use a width at least 500 px and a height max 200 px, to exclude inconvenience for your visitors.

If the pop-up size is smaller, the banner image will be scaled.

Installation

  1. Install as plugin and activate
  2. After going to Photo contest => Addons for set up settings
  3. Open the Contest page and check the result
