I still can't access it. Javascript error on "Get started" page. :( Anyone from europe (non-english speaking country) can use it?
 


I submitted two on Wednesday. One got approved on Saturday (they say they're only open M-F) and I'm still waiting on the other one.

Stats have only updated 2x for the 1 campaign since Sat.
 
Quick update: Upping the budget and shortening the campaign timeframe definitely makes a difference in traffic.

Tonight I'm starting up a serious test of some offers with more of my own banners, direct-linked vs. LP, and to different demo's.

Yup - it all works just fine for me. Try different browsers.
 
I'm not running myspace until they get a little more efficient with their system. I ran a bunch of stuff and just broke even. Lost a little bit of money. Tried tweaking still lost money. That .25 bid is a hard obstacle to overcome.
 
I had about 15 campaigns running with them for a few days. While they were all direct linked, none of them came close to breaking even. Many offers didn't get any conversions, so I'm wondering if it was my targeting that was off, or if the banners didn't explain the offer enough.

So for now I paused everything.

Ya I've had the same results. Very few conversions.
I think pre-qualifying is key with MS.

Same happened to me, lost around $ 500. Impressions and CTR is great but almost no conversions...

Doesn't work for me. I guess it's a java bug or something.

I tried FF,IE,chrome and safari.

Doesn't even work for a couple of friends of mine...maybe they are afraid of us germans posting nazi ads and stuff...fucking nazis
 
If anyone is having troubles getting their ads to display, just resubmit it. Just like up the bid a cent or two, and it should go through pretty fast.

(happened to me a couple times, and worked both times)

I've got one that hasn't shown any impressions since Thursday morning. Tried upping the budget, changing the demo target, shortening the time frame and upping the bid. It seems to be dead in the water.

Got another one that hasn't shown any since Saturday afternoon.

Same in australia here. They emailed and said it is a mac problem. Doesn't work with proxy either. Can't understand why they would be doing this - surely they haven't just fucked up and not tested it on mac? And if they did why no fix yet?

Just a heads up for those in the UK... if you're getting java errors use Chrome. Works a charm.
 
Someone a couple pages back posted about it not being ment for little guys like affiliate marketers. This seems to be true because I've been told that if you up your budget to a reputable big company budget your ads get approved and you're gonna get some better inventory from them. Guess you look credible in their eye.
 
Is there a way to find out how much I've spent today, without tallying the totals for each campaign?

Nope, not that I can see. Even in reports there's no "ALL" option.

Today's my first day, and I'm just subtracting what's been spent from the campaign budgets. Tomorrow is going to be a lot more tedious unless there's a way around manually adding the costs from graphs.
 
Quick update to my earlier posts in this thread, I tested the same offer I have been running profitably with a banner I made (my ave ctr is now 0.16/7 on minimum recommended bids), linked to my own landing page and have seen a great increase in conversion rates from 1:50 to 1:20 through 2k clicks just tonight - ROI at that rate is pretty much 300% - unlike almost everyone else I'm loving myspace ads - its given me my best week so far in CPL marketing! (By a mile!) :D

Just wish I'd gone own the landing page route and not been lazy from the start now...
 
Are referrals from myspace ads showing up as "http://demr.opt.fimserve.com"? I'm trying to figure out where all of these hits are coming from and I think it's myspace, but my ads still say pending...
