Ad Speed reports

Ad Speed reports display a snapshot of your network's ad serving speed. They can help you identify the factors contributing to fast or slow load time and help you find ways to improve latency across your network.
Ad Speed report data appears in your Ad Speed Home workspace.

  2. Click Reporting, then Reports.

    Note: Some impressions may not have ad speed or latency data associated with them.
    • Creative load time
      Refers to the elapsed time from the moment the ad creative began to load until it completed loading (as determined by the ad’s onLoad event). Measured in seconds and assigned a grade relative to the 80th percentile load times of a group of technical peer networks similar to your own.

      You may be able to improve this score if you built the relevant creative for the advertiser.

      Note: Some impressions may not have ad speed or latency data associated with them.

    • Non-viewable impression reasons

    • Tagging speed
      View ad speed by elapsed time for different periods, including "Page navigation to tag loaded time," "Page navigation to first ad request time," and "Tag loaded to first ad request time." Measured in seconds.
