Q: I have generated so many clicks, why am I not get paid for them?

We are not a pay-per-click or pay-per-impression network. We just allocate advertisers' money on publishers' ad units in accordance with unique impressions. Advertisers get a share of impressions from an ad unit in proportion to the amount of money spent on it (see how it works on ad unit's campaign page, e. g.: <a href="https://a-ads.com/ad_units/1/campaigns">https://a-ads.com/ad_units/1/campaigns</a>). <img src="https://storage.crisp.chat/users/helpdesk/website/6a953c4814a02400/screenshot-12_1wjdons.png" alt="" />

Question 1

I have generated so many clicks, why am I not get paid for them?

Accepted Answer

We are not a pay-per-click or pay-per-impression network. We just allocate advertisers' money on publishers' ad units in accordance with unique impressions.

Advertisers get a share of impressions from an ad unit in proportion to the amount of money spent on it (see how it works on ad unit's campaign page, e. g.: https://a-ads.com/ad_units/1/campaigns).

Question 2

How do I create an ad unit for a site with many pages (each with unique or dynamic URL)?

Accepted Answer

You can create an ad unit for one page and use it on all other pages within the same domain and its subdomains. Make sure the pages share the same domain name, otherwise your impressions won't be counted as unique.

Our bot will verify whether an ad unit HTML code is actually present at the specified URL to calculate website's health.

Question 3

How are unique impressions counted? Are the numbers correct?

Accepted Answer

We've got an alternative method of counting unique impressions - we count as unique only globally unique impressions. That's why our numbers are different from what you see in Google Analytics or on other ad networks.

Counting globally unique impressions means that one IP can be counted as unique only once a day within the whole A-ADS network. So a visitor (regarded as one IP) produces a unique impression when he first sees any of our ads on any of our publishing sites, and he doesn't produce another unique impression this day, no matter what sites he visits and what ads he sees.

So unique impressions numbers you see on our network will normally be less than those you see in other places. But don't worry - it doesn't affect your earnings as the counting method is the same for all our publishers.

Question 4

What is daily budget?

Accepted Answer

Daily budget is the amount of money you allow us to distribute between ad units during a day in exchange for a share of their impressions. You can check this article to understand the topic better: How does daily budget work?.

Question 5

What are the fees?

Accepted Answer

We retain 20% of the money that is spent by our advertisers. The rest of the money is distributed between our publishers.

Question 6

Download daily campaigns' stats in xlsx format

Accepted Answer

If you advertise with A-ADS and have a number of campaigns in your user profile, you might want to see the statistics for all of them in one place. This can be done.

You can download the stats for all your campaigns for any period via the link:

https://a-ads.com/users/YOURUSERID/campaignstats?daterange[from]=YYYY-MM-DD&date_range[to]=YYYY-MM-DD

Replace YOURUSERID with your actual user ID, set correct dates and you’ll get a csv file with the data on the impressions, clicks and spendings for each of your campaigns for the chosen period. A sample link looks like:

https://a-ads.com/users/123456/campaignstats?daterange[from]=2019-12-31&date_range[to]=2020-01-31

Or you can just go to your user dashboard and press the little blue CSV button to get the stats per yesterday.
