I'm in Canada and I just added that my whole address in Address Line #2 and it went through. So I'm not sure if its a design feature or a bug. I noticed that the billing address can be only US-based.

Potential advertisers need to satisfy a number of minimal conditions related to their usage of the LinkedIn site, including (but not limited to) a minimum number of connections and completeness of profile information. These restrictions are in place to ensure that LinkedIn DirectAds are being used by members of the LinkedIn community." Can you please tell me how are you profiling the members? What is the criteria? I have a web site design business (that I wish to advertise), more than 800 connections, profile is 100% complete and I am a "member" of LinkedIn community as far as I know.

However, I feel that it should charged on a CPC basis rather than the minimum CPM basis. Let the highest bidder for that audience get the placement. Charging $10 cpm, plus incremental CPMs for additional targeting is just way too expensive, is not exactly something for small biz owners. There're cheaper ways to find their targeted audience. Just my two cents. Great news that LinkedIn is launching DirectAds for small biz owners.
