BuySellAds.com is an online advertising network based in Boston, Massachusetts. It was founded in 2008 by CEO Todd Garland.
According to W3Techs, BuySellAds is used on 0.4% of all websites. Based on BuiltWith Trends, BuySellAds.com grew by 39% (as of November 2011) and ranked as the 16th fastest-growing advertising company.
In late 2011, BuySellAds.com acquired FusionAds, the second largest "one ad per page" advertising network, as well as BeaconAds, the largest Christian advertising network, in a deal reportedly valued under $400,000. However, contradiction between BuySellAds.com's and FusionAds' advertising visions has raised compatibility issues regarding the two.
BuySellAds was named as a finalist in the 2010 MITX Technology Awards.
BuySellAds.com was ranked as number 248 on Inc. magazine's 2012 Inc. 500, an annually-published list of the 500 fastest-growing private companies in the United States, as ranked according to percentage revenue growth over a four-year period. According to Inc., BuySellAds' annual revenue increased from $550,753 in 2008 to $8.5 million in 2011. Furthermore, BuySellAds was ranked number 35 in the Advertising & Marketing industry in the Inc. 500, as well as number #11 in the category of Boston-based businesses.
