Help Center Manage Your Account Ad Targeting using Restrictions

Maximum/Target Quotas

You can set an upper limit for impressions/clicks for an ad. When it reaches any of these numbers (total, daily, monthly impressions or clicks), the ad will not be served to visitors. If this ad has a Dynamic Weight, the system will try to deliver up to the target quotas by adjusting the weight automatically. For example, ad A has a limit of 500 raw impressions/day, ad B has a limit of 100 unique clicks/month.

Daily Quota/Target - Auto Mode

If you want to spread a monthly/total quota evenly every day, you can enable Auto mode for the daily value. This means you do not have to calculate the changing daily value. Our ad server will compute this daily quota using the number of impressions and days left for ad delivery.

Hourly Quota/Target - Auto Mode

If you want to spread a daily quota evenly every hour, you can enable Auto mode for hourly value. This option allows you to avoid setting a fixed hourly value. Our ad server will use the number of impressions and hours left for the day to calculate an appropriate hourly quota.
