Hi. Just a quick question.
Im confused atthe point where you upload an ad creative.
All I want is for google to serve ads from other people, so why do I have to upload an image or anything for that matter if all I want is google to serve ads to my website?
Regards
After creating orders go to Orders > Select your orders > Line Items and select the “Line Item” to upload your creative ads in the form of image or flash or even third party scripts.
To show inhouse ads you have to uploads your own ads.By this you can serve both Adsense ads and your own ads.

actually google adsense allows only upto 3 ads on a page… but with google dfp i can add more than 3 (like 1 from dfp and 3 from adsense). Will adsense disable my account?
Yes Google will soon disable.But if you are using Google dfp to show only in house ads then it will be fine.

Hi Ankit,
Great post, however, I’m still confused on how the ads are published. I work with two third party agencies. I want agency A to be primary and agency B to fill in remaining impressions, however, if ads can not fill I want to place my own social media ads. Currently, I get empty white ads or public service announcement ads. I want to maximize my ad space without adsense.
any suggestions…
thanks

In orders settings, will i need to individually contact the company or just put some name? Kindly clarify. I have not any direct advertisers or ad networks other than Adsense, should I use DFP?
If you don’t have any third party advertiser then put your name and your in house ads
