New feature: publishers can ban ads

[killerstorm]

Hmm, I don't see a way to see where you got traffic from.

There is Traffic Sources -> Exclude, but this list ins't sorted, so it's pretty much impossible to get useful information out of it.

New feature: publishers can ban ads

It's weird, nobody used this feature so far. Either we do a good job moderating ads and publishers don't want to ban them, or they just didn't notice this feature.

Thanks for your feedback!

It is sorted by clicks so that you can ban ad units that generate too much useless traffic for your site.

Here are the current means for advertiser to get to know where his traffic comes from:

1. If you enable "Goal tracking" option in the "Info" tab of your campaign then you will get ID of traffic source with every visitor (so you can track on your side which traffic sources attract useful traffic).

2. In the advertiser's "Targeting" tab you can see the categories and quality range of ad units for your campaign. You can check catalog to check what's inside.

3. You can just visit any ad unit and see if your ad is there and what's the percentage of its traffic you get. E. g. here is the list of advertisers for ad unit #1: http://a-ads.com/ad_units/1/campaigns

If you have a specific use case/interface in mind, please describe it, we plan to improve it.

Deployed few new servers to better handle the load (~100M impressions from over 1.3M IPs served daily).

It isn't. https://i.imgur.com/7uDvnWp.png

Looks kinda random.

Also, for freebitmoney.com statistics shows 181 impressions, while impressions column shows 921. Which is right?

Thanks for your question.

If you hover column names, you'll notice that Clicks and Impressions columns show non-unique clicks and impressions, whereas Statistics columns shows charts for unique clicks and impressions.

Clicks/impressions columns represent amounts of clicks/impressions during a month, but the table is sorted by amount of clicks during a day (it allows to quickly identify and block main sources of recent load on your site).

We'll work to improve the interface, I've added the feature request about custom sorting to our issue tracker.

According to my data our ad delivery service is pretty reliable. But one of our publishers is complaining that our ads are often "down". Is there anybody else who is experiencing similar problems?

[arsenische]

Creation of advertising campaign became easier.

The network cpm drops quickly. anything wrong?

Everything seems to be fine except deficit of paying advertisers.

Advertisers, this is a business opportunity for you, cheap traffic right now!

Our clicks stats from 21st to 25th of November are invalid: due to a recently introduced bug (that was fixed today) we didn't count clicks correctly during that period. Shouldn't be a serious problem since we are not pay-per-click service, but sorry for inconvenience.

This looks like a good service. Nice and unique implementation OP. I wish you success.

Look forward to promote and use your service.

[arsenische]

Thanks.

Due to a bug we displayed errors instead of recently activated ads. The bug has already been fixed. We'll fund affected campaigns to compensate it. Sorry for inconvenience.

Update: deposited funds to affected campaigns https://blockchain.info/tx/1ffb4d8acf6c890f4854d5c1e3004eb3465cdc37f18e08ca0f15f739c6c84c6e

We are having low CPM again. Advertisers, advertise!

[arsenische]

Looks like we had a bug that didn't allow some advertisers to add categories to their advertising campaigns. We fixed it.

What worries me is that this bug existed for a long time and probably affected many advertisers, but we received a report about it only yesterday.

If you see a bug (or something else that prevents you from using a our service), please let me know via bitcointalk, twitter or email (contact@a-ads.com).

Thanks!

PS: Also Max CPM limit for advertising campaigns should work better now.
