What is an ad

ROBLOX allows users to create ads to advertise their places, clothing, models, decals, etc. Ads are images that users upload. When the image is clicked, it goes to the thing that you are advertising.

Advertising is a good way to bring attention to the awesome thing you have just built. You may even be able to make money by buying ads for an item which other players may then purchase or visit.

How Advertising on ROBLOX Works

1. Users like you create a good-looking ad for a specific place or item.

2. Those advertisers bid an amount of tickets.

3. When another user loads a page on roblox.com, the ROBLOX Auction code decides which ad(s) to show them

Creating an ad
