Adsdaq and W3C Markup Validation

A single Adsdaq ad tag generates 22 Errors, 21 warning(s) on my site for XHTML 1.0 Transitional according to The W3C Markup Validation Service. Should I be concerned? If so, is there a way to keep the ad without it causing the errors?

Thanks

replace every & with &

This is probably a dumb question because I'm sure if the answer were no you wouldn't advise it in the first place, but are you sure replacing & with amp; won't affect the tag's functionality?

I wonder why they don't give you the code with amp; instead of &?

It won't affect it. When I was using ADSDAQ I did it with no problems.

They don't do it because they are lazy or don't know any better.

Make sure you replace & with &

Not just amp;

Thank you.

Hello,

While on the topic of adsdaq, what are you using a your backup code. I have adsence and it works no problem. When I put in valueclick it does not display any ads.

Thanks for the tip Bama, i got so frustrated with that, i just threw it into openads...lmao

Peace

last i knew valueclick doesn't allow forums. Has that changed? I'd check their TOS

I have not checked valueclicks TOS, but I only have one approved site and its a forum. My adsdaq fill rate is now 7-9% and my Adsence eCPM is less than .09.

I really need something to bring up my earnings.

I lowered my Adsdaq ask all the way to .25 to .50 eCPM in an attempt to improve the fill rate before deciding today that I'd be better off setting it at 2.00, leaving it, and holding out hope with Adsense.

Does ValueClick perform better for you than Adsdaq, zompus? I applied to them a week or two ago now and my forum was summarily rejected. I can only assume it's because it is a forum. If the program is any good, though, then maybe it's worth applying to again.

I'm looking forward to qualifying for Tribal Fusion and hoping it makes a difference!

I put the valueclick code on my site and in adsdaq backup tags and no ads displayed. I'm not sure how good they are as the code did not work I have also applied to tribal. Hoping to get in there.

zompus, what kind of CPM and fill rate are you getting from Adsdaq?

My ask is 2.00 and i am only get about 7% fill rate

I had to drop you guys because your ads were slowing down my page loads. On top of that your forum has a terrible response time. While this may not be the official way to provide support, it doesn't take long to at least make some kind of reply to the issues I was having. Instead I got nothing.

From what some people still using ADSDAQ have told me, the page load issues still exist.
