Hi Stefan,

I'm running the Kunena Forum within the main body column on a Joomla  
site. The ads display in the right column of the Joomla template.  
Joomla comes with a basic banner module that tracks impressions and  
clicks.

On this site, I've set up the OpenX adserver to serve ads into the  
Joomla site. It manages multiple ad campaigns from various  
advertisers, tracks impressions/clicks, has several methods of selling  
ads to advertisers, i.e., tenancy, cpc, cpm, etc., bills via credit  
card, and provides reports, etc. It can target ads based on geography  
or content keywords.

It's an option...

Best,
Kimo
