What approximate % of ads are ones that pay for buying/fee based? Do they tag visitors through cookies?

Frankly speaking not sure if anybody is currently using it except us. According to site stats, goals generate ~5% of publishers' income in average.

Would it help if I have multiple ad units on the same page? If I have two, will you count two impressions or just one, per page?

We will count 2 non-unique impressions, but only 1 unique one (if the IP is globally unique during 24 hours)

Edit: it might help in some cases, e. g. if it increases your chances to attract advertisers to our service or to generate sales for advertisers that reward for sales.
Gotcha thanks. I presume your earnings are based on non-unique impressions?

Nope, we consider only globally unique traffic since it is too easy to generate non-unique impressions. All publishers are in equal position, we use globally unique impressions as our main  metric to distribute advertisers' daily budgets. Please note that not only amount of traffic you generate is important. You may generate 0 unique impressions but still earn if your visitors buy something from advertisers that reward for it. Anonymous Ads is such an advertiser. If your visitors see our ad and buy from us, you will receive 50% of fees we collect from them no matter how much traffic you generate.

Just as a general suggestion, you can make it so that ad modifications require approval without me having to create a new campaign every single time.

Yes, we'll do it this way. Thanks again!

You guys need to make it so that I can modify my ads without having to create a new campaign every single time. I am up to my 8th campaign. I am happy with the traffic I am getting but this is becoming a deal breaker, I will most likely need to move to another platform if this change isn't incorporated, it's incredibly annoying.


Thanks for your feedback, Pablo. Ads need to pass moderation before the campaign actually starts, that's one of the reasons why initial design of AnonymousAds utilized read-only paradigm. We plan to change it though to improve user experience.

PS: the ad for campaign #700 has been approved and is active now, thanks for your patience

PM'd. Please don't publicly disclose it or the URL. Tongue

Yes, I know, we should have some kind of anonymous support feature on the site, sorry about missing it.

Why is a-ads so choppy all of a sudden?

That's what I'd like to know too. It doesn't affect ad rotation though. Restarted the front end, seems to be working now. Thanks for your message!

My health for my ad code on my site is staying at 0%

What's your ad unit id?

I see my advertiser balance slowly descreasing, a-ads stats show 2+ clicks, but my personal tracking records show only 1 hit from your admin panel (probably from approver).

Lets see what next.

Be sure I will publish full stats difference if I will not like it.

Please do it. Our stats are public, but we can't be sure that visitors who click ads actually follow the redirect and reach the advertisers' sites. So it would be interesting to know how many of them do it.

Probably there are some publishers that generate lots of fake clicks. Please don't worry about that since, you don't pay per click on a-ads.

On the other hand we count only globally unique IPs during last 24 hours. That means if we received a click from same IP during 24 hours, we won't count it as unique (even if that click was for other advertiser). So it could be unique for you, but it won't be counted as unique by us. And theoretically you could receive even more visitors than you see in our stats. Though if our publishers use botnets, then it is unlikely. We don't have ability to check it, so please publish the stats when your campaign is over, it would be interesting to see your real cost per click (that may vary greatly depending on market conditions).

Thanks!

But what if ratio doesn't match or resolution is too low? It could look ugly and unprofessional.
It may look ugly and unprofessional even without incorrect scale. How do you solve this?

We mark such ads as "personal". Some publishers don't allow such ads.

So I have 2 approaches in mind currently:

1) user uploads ad of any size and selects the desired size for it

2) user uploads ad of any size with correct ratio and we scale it automatically to all the sizes that match this ratio (maybe with some small error) and lack the banner.

The first one gives more control to advertiser, the second one makes life easier and is similar to what we do with text version (1 image for many sizes).

Thanks for your feedback, masterluc, this is a brilliant idea. I'll discuss it with my colleagues.
531  Economy / Micro Earnings / Re: AnonymousAds v2 - Reduced fees on: August 20, 2013, 06:34:26 PM
I think it should be correct if you ask to upload arbitrary image and put a drop down list like "Show banner size as: <list of your standard sizes>"

But what if ratio doesn't match or resolution is too low? It could look ugly and unprofessional.
532  Economy / Micro Earnings / Re: AnonymousAds v2 - Reduced fees on: August 20, 2013, 06:29:48 PM
Sorry, we support only popular banner sizes and we don't have publishers that show 120x120 banners.

We where thinking about making an ad editor that would allow to upload images of any size and scale or cut them, but it is not a trivial task to do, so it is unlikely to be implemented in near future. Hopefully we'll implement it in future, but it won't be in near future unless we find an easy solution.

Thanks for your feedback!
No ad editor just
<img src="banner120x120" width="125" height="125" />

Yes, we could allow browser to scale ads. Hm, interesting idea. So do you think we should allow uploading images of any size with correct height/width ratio and scale it up or down for all the sizes that match this ratio?
533  Economy / Micro Earnings / Re: AnonymousAds v2 - Reduced fees on: August 20, 2013, 06:23:14 PM
This site has constant problems.

What are the problems? I don't understand why it doesn't save my banner.

Please disable ad blocking software. For some reason it removes one of the fields from ad creation form.

Second question: Why I can't upload 120x120 banner as 125x125? I have no idea how to resize animated gif.

Sorry, we support only popular banner sizes and we don't have publishers that show 120x120 banners.

502 Bad Gateway

nginx/1.2.6

Back online. Ad rotation not affected. Thanks!

I have several ads on each of a few low-traffic autoblogs of mine (not no-traffic), and I stopped receiving payments in june (probably due to a minimum threshold established for payments in that period).

Since they are all pointing to one or 2 wallets of mine, I would like if you can find a way to join the payments to the same wallet from several ads so that I get paid more frequently (if at all).
Thanks

edit: maybe there is a way in which I could do it setting up campaigns, but I can't figure it out and I think that it would be much easier for you to join the payments to the same addresses.

Sorry, there is no such feature yet, but I realize this feature is important for low-traffic sites and should be implemented. Do you watch stats of your ad units? If you haven't received payments, that doesn't mean they don't earn anything. You can easily check balance of any ad unit (either use search to find it by url, or use its ID, e. g. http://a-ads.com/ad_units/<ID>/stats).

Thanks for your feedback!

Complaining will do absolutely nothing unless Theymos has a change of heart, which I don't think he will.

I hope Bitcoin EU Convention 2013 (Amsterdam, Netherlands September 26th~28th) won't suffer from that since Matthew is Coordination Consultant and his activity on this forum could be an important contribution to this event.

Update: it already suffers since it is not so easy to find the correct link to its forum thread, and Matthew's threads are locked without a link to the correct one
537  Other / Meta / Re: Matthew N. Wright on: August 14, 2013, 08:47:45 PM
To me, it not even an issue of trolling (I despise the word, actually).  Matthew contributes to the community not only through speech, but through action.  Whose vision was it that helped Bitcoin Mag launch?  Matthew's, of course.  Even his ill-advised community bet was made in an attempt to show the community how foolish it  can be by carelessly handing out BTC to total strangers (e.g Pirate).  Unfortunately for Matthew, the mere existence of the bet caused some people to act in ways which cost them money.  But it takes a stand-up guy to acknowledge his responsibility to pay back debts he was never prepared to pay back, and as far as I'm aware, Matthew has paid, and is continuing to pay, the debts he owes.

In my opinion, not only shouldn't Matthew be banned, he has downright admirable qualities, and it's a disservice to the community to ban him.

There are so many threads about this conference, all with different dates. Even though they are locked, it took some time for me to find this one. Maybe it is a good idea to edit dates in their titles and to put links to this thread.
