Overall ad campaign details can now be found in the gray header section of each information block on the page. The links to add custom URLs and multiple ad versions have been moved to the left side of this header, below your campaign's name. Campaign performance stats can be found on the right. Below the gray header section you'll find the details of each individual blog in your campaign, and the link to renew your ad can be found at the bottom left.

You'll still show up on hive pages that you belong to as long as you're getting at least 700 impressions per week, and you'll still be eligible to be included in advertising proposals by our sales team. <br>- <b>Do you offer Standard 160x200 Flash advertising on your blog?</b> When advertisers first visit our order page, the default ad zones showing on the page are for 160x200 Flash placements. If you don't want to offer 160x200 units or Flash on your site, you'll still show up once the advertiser picks a different ad type that your site does offer. <br>- <b>None of the above?</b> <a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20130312002619/http://blogads.com/contact-blogads">Contact</a> our support team and we'll investigate!</p> <ul class="starRating" id="not-appearing-on-order-page"> <li>Rate this answer:</li> <input type="radio" value="1" name="rating"> <input type="radio" value="2" name="rating"> <input type="radio" value="3" name="rating"> <input type="radio" value="4" name="rating"> </ul> <script>jQuery(function() {jQuery('#not-appearing-on-order-page').stars({cancelShow: false,oneVoteOnly:true,callback: function(ui, type, value){jQuery.cookie('faq_rating', jQuery.cookie('faq_rating')+'|not-appearing-on-order-page');;jQuery.get('/FAQ/bloggers/account-setup/not-appearing-on-order-page/rateFAQEntry_with_stars', {rating: value}, function(data){});}});});</script> </li> <li> <div class="header_container"> <div class="item_number">9.</div> <div class="headline" id="bloggersaccount-setupdifferent-traffic-numbers">Blogads is showing different traffic numbers for my site than my other tracking tools.

This corresponds to the expected number of times an ad will load on your site. The number of recorded impressions in the Blogads system may differ from other tracking tools for any of the following reasons: the Blogads code may not be on every single page of your site (ex. comment or "about" pages), the Blogads code may load later on the page than your other tracking codes, some readers may have adblockers installed which prevent our code from loading, and JavaScripts won't load or record impressions on most mobile devices.</p> <ul class="starRating" id="different-traffic-numbers"> <li>Rate this answer:</li> <input type="radio" value="1" name="rating"> <input type="radio" value="2" name="rating"> <input type="radio" value="3" name="rating"> <input type="radio" value="4" name="rating"> </ul> <script>jQuery(function() {jQuery('#different-traffic-numbers').stars({cancelShow: false,oneVoteOnly:true,callback: function(ui, type, value){jQuery.cookie('faq_rating', jQuery.cookie('faq_rating')+'|different-traffic-numbers');;jQuery.get('/FAQ/bloggers/account-setup/different-traffic-numbers/rateFAQEntry_with_stars', {rating: value}, function(data){});}});});</script> </li> </ul> <div class="clear"></div> <h3 class="topic" id="managing-submitted-ads">Managing Submitted Ads</h3> <ul> <li> <div class="header_container"> <div class="item_number">10.</div> <div class="headline" id="bloggersmanaging-submitted-adsaccept-reject-ads">An ad was submitted to my site - how do I accept or reject it?

Check out all of the different ad sizes you can run through Blogads <a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20130312002619/http://blogads.com/ad-sizes">here</a>! <br>- <b>Price competitively:</b> if you want to drive more sales, try cutting prices slightly to be more competitive with similar blogs. Take a look at our order page and compare your prices to similar sites - what prices are they selling ad space for? Try to match or beat those prices. <br>- <b>Offer special discounts:</b> running a special sale for your ad space can increase buying demand. You can create discount codes for one-time use or longer-lasting promotions by logging in to your account, clicking the "Adstrips" link in the left navigation bar, and clicking "customimze adstrip" to the right of the placement you'd like to discount. <br>- <b>Promote your own ad space:</b> create a free ad to run in your own ad zone and promote your space. First, set up a 100% off discount code using the steps above in "Offer special discounts". Then return to your "Adstrips" page, click "Create ad with offer code" to the far right of the placement you want to use, and fill in the ad creation form. Use your 100% off discount code at the top of the page to make the ad free. Once you've completed the "purchase", return to your "Adstrips" page and accept your ad just like you'd accept a paid ad. You can manage your own ad by clicking the "Active Ads" link in the left navigation bar. <br>- <b>Join hives:</b> hives are niche groups of similarly-targeted blogs. Check out all of our current hives here to see where your blog might fit in, then email us a list of the hives you're interested in joining. This is just one more way to get your site in front of relevant advertisers who visit these hive pages. <br>- <b>Drive sales to a hive page:</b> use our Referrals program to drive sales to hives you're a member of, and you'll earn a 14% commission for the sale (whether or not your own site is included in the purchase)! Plus, we'll take 0% commission if the advertiser also buys on your blog. To get started just log in to your account, click the "Referrals" link in the left navigation bar, and choose the hive you want to drive sales to from the drop-down menu. Click "Get code" to generate a unique link to that hive, then send your link to advertisers or promote it on your blog. Any purchases made through that link result in a 14% commission directly to you! <br>- <b>Get creative!</b> Making frequent tweaks to your site's sales pitch, pricing, and ad offerings and placements can all help optimize your site for advertisers.
