impressions per month.

ramping them up, so expect that number to increase
significantly.

within web pages.

with 234×60 also available. Here is how it looks (top image):

10. NEW IMPROVEMENTS
New Inventory Feature: “Add All” Button
For adding all the visible sites within the inventory screen when creating a
new campaign. This button supports the bulk addition of up to 2000 sites.
Improvement: Increased Inventory Export Limit
When viewing the Inventory tab, there has always been an Export button
that allowed you to export your current view of the site list. The limit used
to be 1000 sites, but that limit has now been increased to 10,000.
Improvement: Ad Quality Process Change
After creating a campaign, if you wanted to add additional sites, those
sites would automatically require review before becoming active, but no
longer. Sites now immediately default to “eligible” review status, which
means they are active. This should speed up the review process and allow
you to scale your campaigns that much quicker.
11. NEW FEATURES
Bulk Add Sites By Site ID
You can now add a “whitelist”, so to
speak, composed of sites (using their
Site IDs) when creating a campaign and
adding inventory targets.
Easily Apply for API Key
Apply for an API key, which will allow
you to programmatically create and
control campaigns, and access all of
your campaign reporting and asset
statistics.
Search Field For Contextual
and Audience Segment
Selection
Search field above the grids, making it easy
to find the segment of your choice by name.
