Advertiser account overview

  • Updated

The personal account is the control center of your account that will be available after logging in.

Access to sections and tools, as well as the ability to change settings in your personal account, will depend on the type of program management. 

Types of program management

Admitad Partner Network has 2 types of program management:

Through a personal account manager

In this case, you will be assigned a personal account manager who will take care of most of the program management and configuration according to your needs and the data you provide.

You can engage in certain processes if you want. For example, moderate publishers or get access to the management of other sections in agreement with the manager.

Independent management (with occasional involvement of an account manager)

In this case, you configure the program yourself and work with key sections and processes.

Specifically, you can:

If you cannot edit certain settings or perform actions in any of the above sections, ask your account manager for access.

Personal account sections

Below, we've described the sections of the personal account, with links to detailed instructions on how to work with them.

An account header is displayed on all pages of the advertiser account and includes:

Section with key information in the top-right corner

This section contains:

Program name

The name is stated in the right corner of the header. It will match the name of your project (store, app, etc.).

The name may contain additional information for publishers:

  • The tag of the region where the program operates: for instance, RU for Russia or WW for worldwide operation.
  • The tag of the model the program employs: for instance, CPC for cost per click, etc.

Number of publishers

The figures near the program name show:

  • 2022-01-28_14-55-48.png — the number of joined publishers.

  • 2022-01-28_14-51-48.png — the number of active publishers. An active publisher is a publisher who has clicks, views, or leads for your program over the past 30 days.

Program rating

2022-01-28_14-49-48.png — shows your program's rating in Admitad Partner Network. You can learn more about ratings in this article.

Your username

Your username is specified in the top-right corner.

When hovering over it, you'll see a drop-down menu that allows you to:

Frequency of payments to publishers

This indicator reflects how often you pay publishers for target actions in your program.

2022-01-30_12-55-09.png


What this indicator says depends on whether you pay invoices for payment according to the terms set out in the agreement.

The indicator may say:

  • Regular, which means rewards are paid to publishers on time.
  • With delays, which means payments to publishers are sometimes late.
  • Infrequent, which means payouts to publishers are regularly delayed.

This indicator is also displayed in your program card in the Admitad Store and on the program page.

Publishers pay attention to this indicator when choosing a program to cooperate with. The better it is, the more eager publishers are to choose your program to work with.


Program balance

Your program's balance for confirmed and on-hold actions is displayed below your username.

It is calculated by the formula:

Program balance = account balance — sum of confirmed and on hold actions


Manager's contact information

When a program is created in the Admitad system, it gets an account manager. Their responsibilities and performed functions depend on the type of program management.

You can learn your account manager’s name and contacts by hovering over the icon wefw.png right to the balance.

The menu is placed in the left part of the header and contains the following pages:

Dashboard

The page consists of three blocks:

Brief Overview

Account_Overview_4.png


The block Brief Overview contains 4 columns:

  • Requests for cooperation — shows the number of requests from publishers sent since the program creation, and the number of requests you confirmed, declined, or still consider. Click on the last two fields to move on quickly to moderation or a list of declined requests.

  • Expenses — shows the rewards of publishers for on hold and confirmed actions for the current day, the previous day, the last 7 and 30 days. Rewards are provided including Admitad fee.

  • Actions — the number of confirmed and on-hold sales and leads for the current day, the previous day, the last 7 and 30 days. The line below indicates the hold time expiration date, i.e. up to what day these actions must be processed. Delays in processing are fraught with the discontent of your publishers and deterioration of the program rating.

  • Data for yesterday — a number of impressions, clicks, and actions + an average conversion for the previous day.

Top-7

Account_Overview_5.png


The Top 7 block appears after the program launch. It consists of two parts: Top 7 of banners and links and Top 7 of publishers.

Banners and links include banners, coupons, and Default link — affiliate links including those with a deeplink.

Top 7 of banners and links is made up of banners and links that have the greatest number of actions, clicks, and impressions for a certain period of time.

You can filter the ranking by periods or by the number of impressions, clicks, and actions selecting the required parameters in the line above the ranking. By default, Top-7 displays banners and links with the largest number of actions for the current day.

The ranking will help you to analyze the efficiency of the current ad creatives.

For example, if you see that small banners dominate the list, probably you should add more banners of small size. If Top-7 consists of coupons exclusively, focus on this type of ad creatives and keep the minimum set of banners.

When analyzing, focus mainly on Top 7 by actions as actions unlike clicks or impressions mean real benefit for the program for which you reward your publishers. So, even if an ad creative has a lot of clicks and impressions but no actions, it is not efficient and should be replaced.

The percent right to the number of actions, clicks, and impressions shows how much this indicator has changed as compared to the previous similar period.

EN_AccountOverview_11.png


Top 7 of publishers works in the same way, but it includes ad spaces of the publishers that showed the best results.

Note the data is recorded on ad spaces rather than by publishers, i.e. that one publisher can take several lines of the ranking if they have several joined ad spaces that showed the best results.

Click the icon in the Reports column to see reports on time filtered by this space and by the same period.

Chart

Account_Overview_8.png

The chart shows the correlation of the number of impressions, clicks, and expenses for the last 16 days. It does not show actions.

To see the exact value of the curve for a certain day, hover over the curve point.

If you do not need one of the curves, turn it off by clicking its name in the legend.
