The Ad Library

Open and search the Ad Library

1. 1Open sikhami.com/ads-library.
2. 2Type an advertiser's name in Search by advertiser name.
3. 3Choose Search.

Every word you type must appear in the advertiser's name; capital letters do not matter. The page tells you how many ads it found. When there are many, it shows the 60 most recently shown. To see everything again, clear the search box and search.

You can only search by advertiser name, not by headline, topic or exam.

What each ad shows

• The advertiser's name and the word Sponsored, as on the ad itself.
• Active if the ad was shown in the last 48 hours, or Inactive if not.
• The picture or video. For a carousel (cards people swipe through), the first card is shown with a count such as 1 / 4.
• The headline and the text.
• Button: the words on the ad's button, such as Enrol now.
• Started running with the date it was first shown, and last shown with the date it was last shown.
• Shown in: the places it appeared, such as Home feed, Clips, Stories, Search results or Explore.
• Ad ID: the ad's own number, useful if you write to Sikhami about it.

If an advertiser wrote several headlines or texts for one ad, the library shows the first of them.

Which ads are listed

• Only ads that a person at Sikhami approved and that have been shown to someone at least once.
• Up to the 500 ads shown most recently.
• Drafts, ads still in review and rejected ads are never listed.
• The page is updated every 10 minutes, so a new ad can take a little while to appear.

What is never shown

The Ad Library is about what learners saw, not about the advertiser's business. It never shows:

• how much the advertiser spent or their budget
• who the ad was aimed at (targeting and audiences)
• how many people saw or tapped the ad
• who saw it

For advertisers

• Every ad you run appears here once it has been approved and shown. You cannot hide your ads from the Ad Library.
• The name shown is the Advertiser name from your ad account's Settings, as it was when the ad was saved. If you change it, existing ads keep the old name until you edit them.
• Older ads that have no advertiser name show the ad account's advertiser name, or the owner's profile name.

To learn how to run ads, start with The Ads Manager.

If an ad looks wrong

The Ad Library has no report button. If you see the ad on Sikhami, use the ⋯ menu on the ad and choose Report ad; see Sponsored posts, clips and stories. You can also write to help@sikhami.com with the Ad ID.
