Why zero impressions?
If there's one thing we like, it's the chance to answer a frequently asked question in front of a large and interested audience. Today, we'd like to clear up the seeming mystery of new or edited ads which receive no impressions, as typified by this message (slightly edited for length) from the AdWords Help group:

I recently had a site targeted campaign that was doing pretty well...I changed the wording of the ad and all of a sudden I got 0 clicks and 0 impressions. How is it possible that not a soul saw my ad? As I could not continue getting 0 results, I changed the ad back to what it said before...and it is still getting 0 clicks and 0 impressions. Am I doing something wrong?

The key thing to know is that all new or edited ads must be reviewed and approved before they can appear on sites in the Google Network. So, for new (or edited) ads which are shown only on the Google Network, including image ads and site-targeted ads, you won't receive any impressions until they have been reviewed and approved.

On a related subject, in some cases it's possible for new or edited keyword targeted ads to appear on Google before review -- but they will still need to be reviewed and approved before being shown on Google Network sites. In such cases, an advertiser who is opted-in to the Google Network may notice an increase in impressions once their ads have been reviewed and approved -- since at this point the ads have the potential to be shown on many sites in addition to Google.

Tip: When your advertising needs allow it, you may wish to submit your new or edited ads early to mid-week. Here's why: ads are reviewed on a more limited basis over the weekend, so ads submitted late Friday or over the weekend may take longer to review than those submitted earlier in the week. Also, be aware that review time may vary with the volume of ads being edited and created -- so ads tied to a major retail holiday or event ideally would be submitted a bit in advance to account for higher volumes.

Link Management Initiative Update - Legacy Link Use Extended  
We recently announced the release of the Link Management Initiative (LMI) planned for June 23, 2006. While the changes introduced by this initiative deliver considerable benefits, we understand some of our clients may need more time to plan for and implement the required changes. As your partner in affiliate marketing, Commission Junction is therefore extending the availability of Legacy links to all publishers in the CJ Marketplace. On June 23, 2006, JavaScript links will become Commission Junction's default link type in the CJ Marketplace.

However, we will continue to offer Legacy links through the beginning of 2007. The Legacy links will be available for all your advertiser relationships, including those joined to before and after June 23, 2006. At this time we have not scheduled a date for which the Legacy links will no longer be available or supported. We will notify you at least six months in advance of making this change and will not require the change during the 2006 holiday season.

Though you will have the option to use Legacy links, we encourage you to start using the new JavaScript links as soon as possible, to take advantage of the benefits planned as part of the LMI. Please check our online FAQs frequently, as we will regularly update them and provide more documentation on the changes introduced with the LMI (login required).

We are confident that the features delivered with the LMI will provide long-term opportunity and success for your program. We recommend taking the additional time provided to understand the changes and continue to build sustainable relationships in the CJ Marketplace.
