Posted by Josh Lim on Jan 11th, 2008 | Filed Under: Announcements, Charity, Contests, Advertlets Team, Year 2, Advertlets 2.0

All systems go! As promised, we are bringing lots of new things. Here’s an exhaustive list:

New Ad Format: 728×90 Leaderboard & New Ads
We’ve launched a new ad format! This new ad format will allow us to deliver better earnings to bloggers and more prominence for advertisers. Quite a few blogs are already sporting this new ad format, including Thiang, ShoppingNsales, Naomi Tham, Syokkahwin Blog and more!

Malaysian visitors will see various special deals from Mystyle (including G2000, Delifrance, Giordano, Royal Sporting House, GNC and more), and Singaporean visitors will see the CJ7 Pinball Challenge contest ad. In addition, we have another new campaign from for their Chinese New Year promo in our other formats. More ads will be launched over the weekend!

New Team Advertlets Members: Daniel Tan & Kim Ong
We’re happy to announce that Daniel Tan will be joining us more extensively in our operations as our newly appointed Marketing Director. Last year, he was instrumental in bringing in campaigns such as StarCeleb and Mystyle. Read his blog “Daniel Tan & Friends” to find out why he was so busy last year (including a knee injury, and shooting a movie with Fann Wong…).

Now that Daniel is back on his feet, so to speak, he will be assisting us even more in getting more new campaigns for our Advertlets Bloggers! Thanks to his involvement in showbiz and entertainment, he brings in valuable contacts and relationships into Advertlets. Write to him at daniel.tan@advertlets.com if you’ll like details on starting your exciting new campaigns with Advertlets!

Kim Ong, Bloggerina Extraodinare and Advertlets Exclusive member (and all round classy & charming chick) will be joining us as well to assist in blogger relations. Feel free to contact kim.ong@advertlets.com if you have any questions about your Advertlets code, earnings, campaigns or anything else! She’ll be posting here herself soon with more interesting details.

Advertlets 2.0 Beta Test Invitation
A few of you are already on the Advertlets 2.0 beta test team, and we’ll like more feedback from more of our members. E-mail us at info@advertlets.com if you’ll like to be included in the beta test as well. Its a total revamp of the previous interface, with lots of great new things: some of the exciting new features include social features, earning graphs, trend monitoring, pie charts, and a multi-tabbed access interface.

Increased Earnings & 10-20% Compensation Payout for DNS issue
Most of you would have noticed an increase in your earnings over the past few days due to the new ad campaigns we are running. Additionally, as compensation for the recent downtime, you will earn an additional 10-20% extra on top of all legit earnings for the month of January. The amount will be calculated at the end of January, and credited within the first week of February. Members who have been with Advertlets longer will get reimbursed to the higher ratio of 20%. To make sure you earn optimally, make sure that you install at least 2-3 Advertlets Ad units on your blog! We recommend you install them in the following order of priority: 728×90, 165×240, 336×280, 468×60 and 180×150. Remember, you can only have a maximum of 4 ad units per page, so we recommend installing the larger formats to earn optimally.

PS: Advertlets is announcing new earning structures for loyal members. Have you been with Advertlets for 3-6 months or more? Do drop us an e-mail for details.
