What is AdShelf?
AdShelf is a public board for leftover website ad space. Publishers list real prices and traffic. Buyers browse and inquire directly. We are not a middleman in the deal.
FAQ
Sell the leftover ad space on your site
Short answers on the board, listing, price, verified traffic, and inquiries. Same product as the rest of the site.
Can I sell leftover ad inventory?
Yes. If your site has visitors and unsold slots, put them on the board. Buyers filter by niche, traffic, and price.
How does listing work?
Describe your site: name, niche, monthly traffic, and who your audience is. Price monthly or one-off slots, then publish. You can list more than one site from the same account. Inquiries land in your inbox. Monthly traffic is labeled self-reported until you connect. Connect Google, DataFast, Plausible, or Fathom while you list if you want traffic marked verified. You can still connect later from the dashboard. Real websites only. Social profiles and link pages are not accepted.
What does it cost?
Listing is free. Buyers pay nothing. We take 0% of every ad deal. The top spot is a separate bid. A page sponsor card is $50 per month.
How is traffic verified?
Verified traffic is pulled from a connected DataFast, Plausible, Fathom, or GA4 source for the last 30 days. The source has to match the listed site. Self-reported numbers stay labeled with a warning until you connect. Search Console can add a search-clicks graph. It does not confirm monthly visitors.
How do inquiries work?
Open a listing and send a message. It goes straight to the site owner. No buyer account needed. AdShelf takes no cut and does not hold the money.
What is the top spot?
The top spot goes to the highest bid and stays until someone outbids it. It is always labeled. That site's traffic and prices are shown like everyone else's. The rest of the board rotates daily so no site owns a free position.
Do buyers need an account?
No. Filter the board, open a listing, and inquire. You can also get a weekly email of new slots that match a niche and budget.
