The new Adskeeper publisher dashboard puts website management, widget creation, payments, and reporting in one reworked interface. This guide covers the four things you’ll do most: adding a website, creating a widget, setting up a payment method, and building a report. The first three come with a short screencast you can follow along with. Every one takes a couple of clicks, and your data carries over from the old dashboard automatically.
If you’ve just switched, or you’re about to, start here. Each section is self-contained, so jump to whatever you need. For the full rundown of what changed and why, read what is new in the Adskeeper publisher dashboard.

| Check performance | Reports | Ready-made library plus saved custom reports |
How do I add a website to the publisher dashboard?
To add a website, open the Websites section, click “Add website”, enter your domain and its details, and submit it for review. Once approved, you can start creating widgets for it. The whole thing takes under a minute.
Step by step:
- Open the Websites section from the main menu.
- Click “Add website”.
- Enter your domain, then set the category and language so we match the right demand to your traffic.
- Submit. Your site appears in the list with its current status while it’s reviewed.
Adding a website, start to finish
Add every site you plan to monetize up front. You can manage them all from the same list and see their status at a glance.
How do I create a widget?
A widget is the native ad block you place on your site to earn revenue. To create one, open the Widgets section, click “Create widget”, follow the guided flow to pick your site and format, preview it live, and generate the code. Then paste that code where you want the ads to appear.
Step by step:
- Open the Widgets section and click “Create widget”.
- Choose the website the widget belongs to.
- Pick a format. Each option has a short description, so you can match the widget to your layout and placement.
- Configure the basics and watch the live preview update as you go, no guessing how it’ll look.
- Generate the widget and copy its code to your site.

The live preview is there so you can test formats before publishing. Try a couple and see which fits your page without leaving the dashboard. If you want the full breakdown of what each format does, see the Adskeeper ad formats page.
How do I add a payment method?
To get paid, open the Payments section, go to Payment methods, click “Add payment method”, pick your option, and fill in the details. The new payment setup is simpler than before, and depending on your region you’ll see new methods including crypto.
Step by step:
- Open the Payments section and go to Payment methods.
- Click “Add payment method”.
- Select your method from the list. Available options depend on your region.
- Enter the required details.
- Save. Your method is stored and ready for your next payout.
Adding a payment method, start to finish
Once your method is set, you can track every payment request and see your payout schedule in the same section, so you always know what’s coming and when.
How do I create a report?
Reports show how your sites and widgets are performing. To build one, open Reports, start from a ready-made report or create your own, choose your metrics, groupings, and filters, and save it. Saved reports reopen in one click, so your routine checks stop being routine work.
Step by step:
- Open the Reports section. You’ll see a library of ready-made reports built around the questions publishers ask most. Use these as-is, no setup needed.
- To build your own, click “Create report”.
- Choose your metrics and a grouping, for example by website or widget.
- Add filters like country, device, or traffic type to narrow in on what you’re checking.
- Turn on period comparison to see two date ranges side by side and spot what changed.
- Save it. Your custom report is now one click away whenever you need it.
Make a daily health-check report once (RPM, CTR, revenue, grouped how you like it) and reopen it every morning. That single habit catches problems before they cost you. Reporting keeps changing too, so check the latest product updates for what is new.
