Creative Start/End Date
Assign a start & end date for time-sensitive campaigns and promotions.
To help you manage your links and give you greater control of special campaigns and promotions, LinkShare has implemented a start and end date for all your creative, including text, banner, and individual links. This change will help you better plan special campaigns and seasonal promotions. All creative will expire at 11:59 PM GMT on the date specified as the end date. Please note that a link expiration date may be different from a promotion end date.
When uploading creative, simply select the date when you would like the creative to appear and the date you would like it to end. For your creative that is already in the interface, we assigned a default end year of 2012.
Important! – On affiliate pages, your default creative will appear instead of the promotion-specific creative on the dates outside of the start/end date. It is important that you have default creative in place in order to effectively use this tool.
