Video Ad Preroll with WordPress

jmurphy — Feb 23, 2015 10:58AM EST

Hi,

Our company purchased JW Player, the #1 reason was the ability to run pre-roll ads with our videos. We assumed, our fault, that everything would be plug and play, and relatively easy. We were so very wrong.

We don't have a VAST tag, we don't have a video ad platform, and we've tried to figure all of this out over the past couple of months and are at the verge of giving up.

Is there someone that can guide us through this process? All we need is to be able to display pre-roll video.

Thanks!

I recommend starting by signing up with any of our support ad networks (see the list on this page: http://www.jwplayer.com/video-ads/). You should be able to generate a VAST ad tag in your ad network dashboard and simply drop it into a player within your Wordpress admin. You must also make sure that your Ads-tier license key has been entered into the JWPlayer Wordpress plugin settings page.
