ad collapse not working, blank space shown

    I installed DPads on my website http://TheTechnofreak.com
    below the search bar, you'll see a blank space where the ads are supposed to be shown, tohugh I selected the collapse the ad when no ad is available option.
    Also, why are ads not available?
    Does it take time for ads to appear on new installations? And will they start shoing automatically, or do I need to approve each advertiser, receive payment and stuff?
    Sorry if this question has been asked many times before, but I couldn't find an appropriate result on searching with your search bar.
     
    Solved! View solution.

    The collapsing should be working properly for you now.

    As far as ads to display, advertisers advertise specifically on your site, so you would have had to gain an advertiser (and they paid you) first.

    It appears to be working now, but takes a bit of time to collapse. First the space is shown and then it dissapears. Still better than AdSense, where the collapsing never works. Thanks :)

    The system doesn't load ads until your web page is finished loading. So if your page takes a little bit to load, the collapse isn't going to happen until the page is completely loaded.

    Oh, I forgot about that. And as I don't have any advertiser as of now, can I remove the js code? (as it slows down the loading a bit), without affecting my visibility/availability to advertisers? Or is there any other solution to this?

    No, sorry... the system will just assume you aren't using Digital Point Ads any longer if you remove it. It should not slow download loading at all... I just double checked, and the Digital Point Ads stuff on your site takes 0.024 seconds to load. It's the images on your site that are slowing it down. Some of them are taking 36 seconds to load.
