Question 1

I have generated so many clicks, why am I not get paid for them? How do I earn more?

Accepted Answer

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.: https://a-ads.com/ad_units/1/campaigns).

What is a unique impression?

Unique impression is an impression generated from an IP address which is unique in the scope of the whole advertising network during a day.

If a website visitor has seen any a-ads banner anywhere today, s/he won't generate a unique impression until tomorrow. If there are several ad units on the same page, only one of them can receive a unique impression (the one that loads first).

The average ratio of unique/non-unique impressions is about 1:34 currently, but it varies greatly from site to site. Most impressions are not unique but it is not important since all publishers are in equal position.

If your website generates unique impressions daily then you get a share of expenses of our advertisers for displaying their ads.

Otherwise we display affiliate ads on CPA te

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

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: https://a-ads.com/blog/2019-08-11-how-does-daily-budget-work/.

Question 4

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 5

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.
