Can I put ads on my subdomain?

Answered

I have a new subdomain that’s doing well as far as traffic but am not sure how ads get placed there. Currently, ads are not being shown there. Is there something I need to do to add ads to that subsite or is it not eligible for ads from Grow?

    Hi Kreg,

    Thanks so much for reaching out. I just took a look at the site and was able to check on the subdomain as well. It looks like posts on the subdomain have very similar markup to those on the main domain. Placing ads on the subdomain should be possible here, but we haven't actually placed Journey ads on a subdomain just yet. So you'll actually be helping us to test out the functionality.

    What you would need to do to gets ads on the subdomain is to ad the script wrapper and to add the Grow script (to make sure analytics work properly). Depending on your setup, this would likely need to be done manually. You would just want to make sure that both the Journey and Grow scripts are running in the head of all the pages in the subdomain. 

    You can find both scripts in your Grow Publisher Portal - the Journey script is in the Journey settings, the Grow in the Grow settings.

    Once the scripts are added, ads should display on the subdomain given the similar markup. If you could let us know when you have the scripts added, we can take a look to make sure everything is working.

    Thanks!

    We’ve installed the script for our subdomain page and ads seem to be populating but please check it to make sure everything is functioning properly. Thank you!
