Ad Serving Management Software

Cache Busting Technology

Our Ad Serving Code utilizes JavaScript, which allows the administrative site to
dynamically  write to clients  HTML pages,  giving the ads a new "cache  number"
each time a page is loaded.  This technology will void any image caching the end
user may be using and can  effectively  increase ad  inventory  of the  client's
site.


Integration

The Ad Serving  Software has been coded with  integration  in mind. Our software
can be integrated into other banner exchanges.  This is an integral feature,  as
ad  auctioning  rivals get a great deal of their sales (and ad  inventory)  from
banner exchange sites.  Instead of a client inserting the typical image and link
code onto their site,  the client will place our scripts,  creating "two layers"
of banner exchanging.



This ability will allow us to easily audit  statistics and keep track of how the
site is  showing  the  buyer's  banners.  This  will  also  allow us to  compare
statistics with the seller's site and make sure there aren't any  discrepancies,
ultimately  creating  a very  strong  and  fair  way of  reporting  ad  campaign
statistics.


Advanced Tracking, Fraud Busting and Statistics

The Ad Serving  Software keeps a wide range of important  statistics.  This will
ensure that the banners are not being  requested en mass from the same IP number
(same person),  that the times and dates of banner  requests from IP numbers are
appropriate.



The  software  makes it  increasingly  difficult  to engineer a site to get more
click-throughs or exposures than they deserve.



Control

The seller of banners (web publisher) will be able to easily verify the validity
of a buyer's  banner  to make sure it is  appropriate  for their  site.  The web
publisher will be able to reject a banner if they deem it to be inappropriate.



Relevant  statistics  will  be  available  for  the ad  buyer,  seller  and  the
administrators.






                                      -86-

Customized Profiles

The software features customized profiles for buyers and sellers,  allowing them
to "get to know each other" a little better before deciding on a sale.



Multiple Ads

The  software  has the  ability  for the buyer to display  multiple  banners per
campaign,  and compare the statistics of the banners to each other.  This allows
buyers to decide which type of advertisement is working best for them.



Advanced Email Manager

Future  advancements  to the  software  will  include a fully  integrated  email
manager,  allowing for  announcement  lists for clients,  and to notify the user
base of important changes, deals, and features.



Server Technology

  E-bidd.com  will be running the ad serving  software  on a  dedicated  server,
  allowing  for maximum  load usage and  bandwidth.  The software was created in
  Perl and the webserver  will be running  Apache with  Mod-Perl.  Apache is the
  most popular webserver on the Internet,  with over 60% of all websites running
  Apache. It is efficient,  popular,  and secure. Mod - Perl is an extension for
  Apache  that  allows it to "cache"  Perl CGI  files.  This will allow our Perl
  scripts to execute  20-50%  faster,  greatly  decreasing  the load on the host
  server.


  Scaleable Database Technology

  We are using mySQL as a database server. (SQL = Structured Query Language) SOL
  is the most widely used database  language in the world,  with the portability
  of Perl scripts to accessing  mySQL,  we will be able to change over to a more
  extensive database solution if the need arises.


  Security

  E-Bidd.com  will  provides the server with maximum  security.  For Credit Card
  transactions,  we will be using Apache's SSL layers.  E-Bidd.com  will also be
  utilizing an established merchant account solution for Internet Based commerce
  transactions.
