Monetize insights for publishers

  • Article

Monetize Insights delivers actionable data for publishers directly within the Microsoft Monetize UI. It helps publishers to save time by removing the need to configure reporting dashboards or rely on in-depth reporting to access high level inventory information.

Ad quality

Ad Quality shows revenue-impacting blocks to help in identifying and evaluating opportunities to adjust ad quality settings. Ad Quality contains controls for brand safety, technical attributes and other parameters that can act to block a bid in the auction.

Note

As an organization, we recommend you to regularly view your Ad Quality settings (at least quarterly) to make sure that are appropriate and consistent with settings configured in the other SSPs (that you may also be using to monetize inventory). Generally, the blocked bid opportunity overestimates potential revenue impact and is influenced by the price and frequency of the bids that have been blocked.

The value displayed on Ad Quality tab is the sum of all blocked bid prices. For example, a $5.8m of blocked bid opportunity in last 7 days, up 11% compared to prior week shows that bids with that value have been blocked. This can be used to directionally assess magnitude of potential revenue opportunities. The 11% increase could be seen as significant and warrant further investigation by using the Ad Quality tab to understand if a specific bid rejection is causing this increase.

For more information on Ad Quality, go to Ad Quality.

Deals

Deals tab specifies the most significant bid rejections by a deal. This tab helps to:

  • Sort by total bid value, absolute and percentage changes easily.
