How does In-Link aware works?
When a visitor comes to your website through either Google search results or a random website, AdUniver.se takes that in-link information and passes that on to the Ad serving engine so that you can get relevant ads depending on what the visitor have searched for prior coming to your web site. Cool huh?
You will also always get the reffering domain name so that you can target ads specially for certain domain names.
