We made more changes to the network this morning.

  1. Layout (which was actually yesterday)
  2. We're phasing out the banner style ads and just going with the Title/Picture/Line1/Line2/Link ads.  If you go in  to edit a banner ad you'll be forced to convert to a text/image ad format.
  3. We simplified the bank/budget concept.  There's now only one place that has money in it - and it's your bank.  Ad campaigns pull funds from your bank.  You can limit the amount of money pulled from your bank for each campaign if you wish.
  4. Added a "spent" stat for each ad_campaign.  This isn't historical but will track how much has been spent on each campaign, going forward
  5. Removed the budgeting step when creating an ad campaign - this can now be done in the first step

Do these ads show up on the consumer side as well? I would rather advertise to potential customers than to other realtors.

When targeting the ad you can choose "Non Members" from profile-types and that will advertise to non-members (well, technically, anyone who isn't logged into ActiveRain - which could be members, but that's about the best we can do).  

We'll be adding ads to Localism very soon - which will be an easier way to target the consumer side.

ALways willing to try new ideas- I think this will be a wonderful addition to the Active Rain community and localism. Being able to reach out to non members is important.

 Thanks Guys!
