Question 1

How to Place an Ad Unit Code Correctly

Accepted Answer

You should copy the ad unit HTML code and embed it into your site code exactly on the page you specified for this ad unit in AADS. The page must be accessible for our bot to verify. Once the ad unit is found, you can use it on any pages within the same domain and its subdomains.

Question 2

My Website Generates Quality Traffic, but My Earnings Are Too Low! What to Do?

Accepted Answer

Understanding Our Payment Policy

To grasp our payment policy, it's important to understand how online advertising works:

Ad networks consist of advertisers who target specific demographics (e.g., geographical location, browser language, user age, type of device, etc.).
Ad networks include publishers who offer their traffic to these advertisers.

Situations That May Affect Your Earnings

Here are some scenarios in which your earnings might not meet your expectations and how you can address the issue:

Lack of Advertisers for Your Demographics: If we don't have advertisers targeting your location or audience language, unfortunately, there's little we can do to increase your earnings.
Filtered Advertiser Categories: If you limit advertisers by filtering specific categories of ads, such as Gambling or Investments, consider enabling at least these two categories.
Low Audience Engagement: If your audience is not engaged (for example, if users rarely click on our banners), our advertisers expect not only clicks but also conversions.
Website Quality Concerns: If our algorithms have flagged your website as low quality (e.g., it contains little or no valuable, up-to-date content), we recommend improving your website.

Important Notes

AADS does not guarantee any earnings.
AADS cannot assure the same earnings for identical traffic.
AADS pays our publishers 80% of our daily advertising budget based on the share of your globall

Question 3

How to Create an Ad Unit for a Site with Multiple Pages (Each with Unique or Dynamic URLs)

Accepted Answer

You can create an ad unit for one page and use it on all other pages within the same domain. Please ensure that the pages share the same domain name; otherwise, your impressions will not be counted as unique.

Our bot will verify that the HTML code for the ad unit is present at the specified URL to calculate its display rate.

Question 4

I've Generated Many Clicks/Impressions – Why Am I Not Getting Paid for Them?

Accepted Answer

We are neither a pay-per-click nor a pay-per-impression network. Instead, we distribute advertisers' funds to publishers' ad units based on unique impressions.

Advertisers receive a share of impressions from an ad unit proportional to the amount of money they spend on it (see how it works on the campaign page for the ad unit, e.g.: https://aads.com/ad_units/1/campaigns).

Question 5

How Are Unique Impressions Counted?

Accepted Answer

Our method of counting unique impressions is different: we only count globally unique impressions. This means our numbers may differ from those shown in Google Analytics or other ad networks.

Each IP address is counted as unique once every 24 hours across the entire AADS network. So, when a visitor (identified by their IP) first encounters our ads on any of our publishing sites, it generates a unique impression. After that, no further unique impressions are recorded for that visitor during the same day, regardless of the sites they visit or the ads they view.

As a result, the number of unique impressions reported on our network will generally be lower compared to other platforms. However, this doesn't impact your earnings, as the counting method is consistent for all our publishers.

||| Unique impressions make a significant contribution to your income. However, it would be best if you still considered the other factors that our network considers in calculating earnings. Read more in our blog article.

Question 6

How to Fix Empty Targeting

Accepted Answer

The status "empty targeting" means that there are no ad units that match your campaign's settings and targeting criteria.

The most prevalent causes and solutions:

You enabled "Show banners only" but did not upload the banners that correspond to the sizes of the targeted ad units

Either disable the Show banners only option or upload the necessary banner sizes.

You target expensive traffic sources but did not set a high enough Max CPM value for your CPD-campaign

Go to your Campaign => Payment model page and set the Max CPM to the maximum allowed value (between 0.5 to 1 btc). | Remember that Max CPM is not an actual CPM and works like a filter. More info in our helpdesk article.

You target only a few sites/ad units that don't generate traffic, don't match your campaign's settings, or have rejected your ad

Add more sites/ad units or entire categories, or disable the options that may exclude the ad units from your targeting, such as:

Approved sites only (beta)
Show banners only
You use Geo-filtering, but the targeted ad units have less than 30% of traffic from the selected countries

Add more countries or don't use Geo-filtering.

Your ad has a rating that the selected traffic sources do not allow

Try to fix your ad or select other traffic sources. Contact support if your ad is rated incorrectly.

General recommendations:

Increase Max CPM
Upload m
