New Features for Digital Ads, Part 2

This screencast shows some new options for setting up digital ads, like an automatic IAB ad size converter, the ability to control metadata fields that appear on the uploader, and expanded click tag support.

New Features for Digital Ads, Part 1

This screencast shows a few new features when uploading a digital ad. We can now retrieve an ad from the web automatically, and give you an easy way to create a snippet to link to a digital ad in your site.

EReader / iPad Ads

SendMyAd now accepts mobile / EReader / iPad ads. This is an optional feature - please ask your account representative for pricing information.

See the video for details on how this works.

New trim tool

One major feature of our upgrade tomorrow is a redesigned trim tool interface. We think you'll find the new interface more efficient and easier to use. We've also added a new optional feature that allows a user to add text to the PDF using the trim tool. A typical use of this would be for adding reader service numbers. Please contact a SendMyAd sales representative for more information on the new type tool.

Watch this screencast to see it in action.

This new version of the tool also will display in French Canadian if that is the language selected for the user.

Publisher statistics at a glance

Watch this screencast to see a new summary report with charts to help you keep tabs on your ad activity. You can also use the new Publisher Statistics to see at a glance the most common reasons for advertisers rejecting and revising their ads.

Reason tags make revisions easier

Watch a video of our new Reason Tag system to make it easier for advertisers to communicate why they are revising or rejecting an ad.
