Adgitize will be paying March Publisher payments this week. Make sure you have updated your Adgitize Profile with your payout options.
Your options are to be paid by check which requires a minimum payout of $50 and comes with a $10 check writing service charge. The second option, PayPal, has a $10 minimum payout amount. There is no additional charge for payout by PayPal.

We have updated the member earnings report to reflect days that were missed because of server problems. We had two choices. We could just not award earnings for the days that ads weren’t being shown. Or, we could pick your highest earnings day from January 2nd to January 29th and give you the earnings from that day for the missing day.
We chose the latter. So, when you look at your report for January 23rd, 24th and 25th you will see earnings have been added for those missing days. Since you didn’t really score points for those days we have not updated the points report and for points earned for those days we have left them at zero.
The only critical value is the amount earned. I think in every case members have earned more than they potentially could have if everyone had participated for those days.
We will finish up the advertisers ad extensions on Thursday. Our plan is to extend all ads in process when the server failed.
It appears upon final analysis that the problem was caused by an update to AVG 9.0 an anti-virus product. The latest update had functionality that disrupted the proper operation of a web server.

This is just a reminder for new publishers to Adgitize or to publishers that may not remember how to reject an ad. Early on at Adgitize we learned that not all publishers are interested in having all ads running on the network to show up on their blog.
Some ads may be from your competitors, ads that you don’t feel work with your blog color scheme, ads that are too sexy or provocative or ads you consider offensive. We have a way for you to ensure that these ads don’t run on your blog. Remember it is your blog not Adgitize’s. You decide on content and ad content.
So, if you don’t want an ad to show on your blog then follow these steps.
Click on the Manage Blogs button. Choose the Reject Ads Button which will take you to the reject ads page. Once there you can peruse all the images of ads currently running on your blog. If you find one you don’t want to show on your blog then click the check box.
Continue until you are satisfied that you have checked all that you don’t want to show then go to the top of the page and click on the “Reject Checked Ads” button. This will update the database and the checked blogs will not be shown on your blog in the Adgitize Ad Group.
You can go back to this page and see which ads you have rejected and reject more or un-reject ads if you want. As always you are in total control of what is on your blog.
