LinkShare’s Media Optimization report offers a Near Real Time Snapshot of the transactions you refer to advertisers. This report allows you to see all transactions in near real time, providing insight on how your campaigns are performing. The Media Optimization Report is available from advertisers who report their transaction data in real time and approve you to receive this data.
There’s a NEW ICON in the Publisher Dashboard that tells you which Advertisers offer the Media Optimization Report. The icon looks like a clock and you’ll see it along with other icons in the programs area. Just hover over the icon to get a description of what it represents.
