Hi guys, how to do this in a php file
Showing ads only to 20% percent of visitors. Or showing different ads to another 80% visitors
any way that can work, maybe using time intervals, like the visitors that visit the site at minute 0-12 only that show it, and visitors that visit the site at minute 13-59 is not. Or another methode
please help or share if you have, this should be easy enough and many people should need it, already googling it but still cant found it

You could use a text log counter and for each pageview add +1 and every 80 pageviews show an ad. Pretty fast and low load.

i'd say the quickest way would be to generate a random number between 1-5 for every page view, if the number is 1 then show the ads if it is anything else show the alternative ads.

<?php
$percent = 0.2;
if (rand(0,100) < (100*$percent)){
// show ads
} else {
// something else
}
?>
like topr8 said. doing things proportionally is best done using a rand()
