My placement is live but I have received few or no clicks yet. What’s wrong?
We recommend that you monitor your placement performance closely for the first 24 hours. After that time, you can evaluate your placement performance and make adjustments. You may need to increase your bid, or adjust the targeting to improve placement performance. You should also review the performance of individual ads, and change those that are not generating the desired CTR.

You can contact your
account manager or
support@medley.com for technical assistance. There may be a problem with the ad code that you uploaded. Send us your technical contact person’s email and the code or creative that is not working.

Manage Placements and choose edit for the placement you’d like to add exclusions to. You can set the exclusions for each site, (up to 100) by entering the URL for each site that you’d like to block.
How should I use Exclusions, also called Blocked Domains?
You should determine which sites or pages in the network you might want to block for competitive reasons, or because you simply don’t wish your brand to appear on.
Then, add those domains, sub-domains or directories to your list of blocked domains via the Manage Placements page by editing the placement and adding exclusions.
How many domains can I block per account?
You can block up to 100 domains per placement.
Can I block certain domains specifically for one placement?
Yes, Medley Ads provides flexible controls to block individual placements. We realize that you might not want to block the same sites for every placement.

You can set daily spending limits at both the placement and the account level. To set a placement limit, go to
Manage Placements and choose to edit the one you’d like to limit. You can view and edit a daily limit on this page. To set an account limit, the account admin would set a daily limit in the My Account – Accounting Information Page. This account level limit will have precedence over the individual placement limits once the maximum daily spend amount is reached.
How do I add funds to my account?
You can set your account to autofund from a credit card every month, or make individual transactions to add funds when your balance is low. The system sends an alert when your balance is expected to run out within 3 days. To make a payment, you can either go to the
My account – accounting information page, or go to
Manage Placements and choose to add funds to a placement in the list.
