This is a list of plugins Frank tested:

• MaxBlogPress Stripe Ad
• Simple Welcome Bar
• Simple Ads Manager
• Header and Footer
• Content.ad
• Hello Bar
• Advertwhirl Advertising Manager and Ad Rotator
• AdRotate
• Ad Manager
• Ad Injection

Among these ten he picked only two, since other eight did not satisfy initial requirements.

The only thing in common these plugins have is they display ads as a stripe in the header of a page. What every website has? Numerous categories, stripe ads can be designed in accordance with their specifics. All that remains are minor changes in the page’ code, one needs to add some code into the place where ad is needed:

1	<?php if (function_exists('adinj_print_ad')){ adinj_print_ad('top'); } ?>

<?php if (function_exists('adinj_print_ad')){ adinj_print_ad('top'); } ?>

And slight customizing of CSS, respectively...

According to his reach, and trust me he does it really meticulously, the sentence is following...

Ad Injection vs Stripe Ad

• Maintenance and tuning - 5; provides and extensive range of modifications;
• Tax - free, but if you wish you can donate to the developers;
• Disposition - can be placed anywhere;

• Targeting - thorough the admin panel you can hide your stripe ads for specific countries or ips.
• Analytical tool - contains a must have tool to track productivity of the ad;
• Uninstall - you can uninstall by deactivating the plugin and deleting from the WordPress plugins control panel. Uninstalling will delete all files and settings created by Ad Injection. It will also delete any template ads that you have put in the ad-injection-data folder.

Stripe Ad:

• Installation - 5, the same, upload it into "/wp-content/plugins/" directory, than push Active button and it's done;
• Maintenance and tuning - 3; provides a poor range of modifications;
• Tax - needs to be activated via e-mail, asks for money to reveal full range of functionalities;
• Unwanted links - contains unnecessary links to developer's website;
• Uninstall - you can delete the plugin from the admin panel, but you need to delete rudiments of code manually, meaning there is no automatic option back to default settings.

...Stripe Ad is guilty for being less function-rich and is sentenced be be uninstalled.
