If you are offering a customised package, you must provide a starting price in the “price” field. There is no need to put in the dollar sign ($) as this is built into the field.  All prices are in TTD.

Can I see the number of times my ad has been viewed?
Yes, you can see the number of views on your ad’s homepage.

What format and orientation should my image be in? 
Ideally the image you post should be in jpeg or png format. It should have a horizontal format/orientation and should not be more than 2MB in size. You can post an image with a vertical orientation but it will be re-sized into the existing image template parameters.

When should I pause my ad?
