Author Configure Apache like godaddy's free web hosting to always show a banner on top

Could anyone tell me how I could do this?

If you go to a go daddy hosted website that they host for free, you see
those ads up top. How would I do the same thing for any sites/pages on
my apache web server?

look at rewrites in the apache docs, then rewrite every request to a
script that sends ads and then the data from original request.
google for rewrites and "auto prepend" php allows you to automatically
prepend a file while requesting another - if you dont use php though
and want a pure apache solutions there are tutorials on how to do this.
You could (with a bit of jiggery-pokery) use the
Options +Indexes -Includes
HeaderName HEADER.html
ReadmeName README.html
in conjunction with rewrites, or a naming convention.

I'm being deliberately vague, it's not really an apache config issue,
anf the tutorials for auto prepend rewriting are out there.

I feel I must point out that this type of advertising is terribly easy
to turn off, so if you allow the user to make his/her own webpages,
they can write a few lines of javascript to switch off your ads.
There are tutorials on that too! (probably - I havent actually looked)
