• Campaign Status: Indicates if the ad is 'Active', 'Paused', or 'Expired'.

You can also pause or resume your ads as needed, but note that ads with dangerous links cannot be resumed.

You can view detailed statistics for your approved ads. The statistics include:

• Total Impressions: The number of times your ad was displayed.
• Total Clicks: The number of times users clicked on your ad.
• Click-Through Rate (CTR): The percentage of impressions that resulted in clicks.
• Amount Paid: The total amount spent on the ad.

Additionally, a daily trend chart is available to visualize the performance over time. This data helps you assess the effectiveness of your ad campaigns.

SmarterBloggers allows you to submit ads on the main platform or on individual blogs. Platform ads are managed directly through your account, while blog ads can be submitted without authentication. For platform ads, your account details are automatically used to fill in advertiser information, ensuring authenticity and preventing impersonation.

Revenue from ads is distributed based on the type of ad:

• Platform Ads: 10% goes to the first-level affiliate, 1% each to levels 2-10, and the remaining 81% stays with the platform.
• Blog Ads: 60% goes to the blog owner, 10% to affiliates, and 30% to the platform.

For example, if an ad costs $100, a platform ad would distribute $10 to the first-level affiliate, $1 each to levels 2-10, and $81 to the platform. A blog ad would distribute $60 to the blog owner, $10 to affiliates, and $30 to the platform.

All ads undergo a security scan to ensure the safety of the click URL. Ads flagged as dangerous cannot be approved or resumed. Additionally, ads are reviewed by AI for content compliance, and only those marked as safe and compliant are automatically approved. Manual review is available for ads that do not pass AI checks.
