What is a Campaign?
A Campaign is the basic unit of ad delivery. Advertisers select an ad product sold by publishers, set their desired period and budget, and book a campaign. Once the campaign is approved, creatives are registered, and ads are displayed when the start date arrives.
Campaign Workflow
Campaigns progress through the following stages from booking to ad display.
| Stage | Responsible | Description |
|---|
| 1. Campaign Booking | Advertiser | Select ad product, set period/budget, choose targeting |
| 2. Payment & Submit | Advertiser | Enter payment information, agree to terms, and submit |
| 3. Campaign Review | Publisher | Review campaign content and approve/reject |
| 4. Creative Registration | Advertiser | Upload image/video creatives, set landing URL |
| 5. Creative Review | Publisher | Review creative content and approve/reject |
| 6. Ad Display | System | Automatically display from start date to end date |
Creatives can be registered at the same time as campaign submission, or separately after campaign approval. Both the campaign and creatives must be approved for ads to be displayed.
