Advertiser Home and Reports Page Updates

Today, we’re announcing two new improvements to the Google Affiliate Network Advertiser interface. We have updated the Advertiser Home to help you understand your affiliate program more efficiently and see the latest network announcements. We have also updated Advertiser Reports with more robust features, including fast-loading graphs to give you a more detailed visual overview of your program’s performance.

Here's a look at the new Advertiser Home:
