- **Available to:** Site admins
- **Plans:** All plans

Ads are managed on **Websites → Manage → Ads**. Your ads are listed as cards, with **All, Active, Paused, Draft** tabs and an **All ad slots** filter at the top.

## Adding a new ad

1. Click **+ New Ad** at the top right.
2. Enter an **Ad Title** (e.g. Main Sponsor Banner).
3. Choose the **Ad Slot** (e.g. “Sidebar — 300×250 / 300×600”: a square or vertical ad in the side column). Ad slots from your site’s design appear in the list too.
4. Choose the **Ad Type** and fill in its fields (below).
5. Set the **Status** (Active or Inactive) and optionally **Show an “Advertisement” label above it**.
6. Check how it looks in the **Preview** on the right (**On page** / **Ad**) and click **Add Ad**.

## Ad types

| Type | What you enter |
| --- | --- |
| Image Banner | **Ad Image** (address or **Upload**), **Click-through URL**, **Alt Text** (SEO and accessibility) and **Open in new tab**. The window shows the recommended size for the slot. |
| HTML / Script | Third-party ad code or custom HTML. For security, scripts don’t run in the preview; the code runs as-is on the site. |
| Google AdSense | AdSense publisher ID and ad unit ID. See [connecting AdSense](https://ulakom.com/md/en/help/ads/adsense-ad-manager.md). |

Only **Active** ads are shown on the site. To stop an ad temporarily, use **Pause** on its card.

> **Tip:** New ad slots are added to pages from the design editor. Keep page speed and reading experience in mind before adding more slots.
