About the Viral Ad Network

Who we are, what we do, how we do it and why:

Est. 2001

We've been doing this for over a decade. We've been involved in publishing, content creation and online advertising since 2001. We know that the Viral Ad Network has to work for both publishers and advertisers: we've lived both sides.

Our Philosophy

Good advertising deserves a good audience. Although the internet offers unique opportunities that traditional advertising cannot, growing masses of online ads are making it increasingly difficult for yours to get noticed. That's where we step in.

Crystal Clear

We're on a constant mission to provide a clear, honest and transparent service. We're proud of the work we do, so we want to talk about it and show you what we've done. As IAB members, we are continually evolving with the laws of the web land and providing a safe service for advertisers and publishers alike.

Who we are

Just to prove that we are real people with real faces and proper jobs, here's some authentic photos of our genuine faces with definitive text about our actual jobs:
