Generally not all inventory generated on your content or your properties is available for monetization.
Within the No ad rate metric in your Analytics, we categorize any inventory that is not eligible for monetization through the No ad reasons dimension, and make it available in the dashboard for you to review and identify the reasons.
Access the no ad reasons
- Log in to your Dailymotion Studio
- Go to Analytics > Ads to view your Ads dashboard
- Click on the metric No ad rate and watch the No ad reasons dimension further down in the page
Understand the no ad categories
In order to simplify the dashboard, the no ad reasons are classified in different categories depending on the source of the advertising rule which has been triggered.
