Premium CPM in Traffic Volumes statistics
An amazing novelty on our platform is Premium CPM. This metric is the best combination of cost per thousand impressions and a high number of conversions.
Last year’s update introduced the Recommended CPM — the best price to start. And there is also a minimum CPM — the minimum amount from which ads can be shown.
Choose the option that suits you best after setting all the campaign configurations in the last field, allowing you to run the campaign on the best current conditions.
The cost depends on your chosen geo, traffic source and other targeting options.
VAST/VPAID tag tester
When creating a Video/VAST ad format campaign, choosing a VPAID Url video format you will see a new Test your code bouton.

Testing is possible in two ways. With the Tag selected, paste a link to your XML feed. If you choose Custom XML, you must copy and paste your VAST XML file. After that, click the Load Ad bouton.
Below, the video will start playing, and you will see what your ad will look like.
