Hi I'm a peon, completely DP green, I've added a site with the ads, got it validated and enabled my ad. Now what? I didn't do the API thing, is there a way to check my stats? They say 0. How long does it take for things to get activated? For my ads to be broadcasted on other sites? The main question is, if my site is validated and my ad is enabled; am I good to go or is further action required? Thanks!
Expect 10 days for your links to be fully displayed on other sites. Is it your weight that says zero? If so that means you won't have any ads shown. You can check the status of your links over time, most easily by performing a link: query in either MSN or Yahoo!, but don't bother to do it with Google as the results have been misrepresentative(sp?!?) for a long time now.
