When you are running a website, it is very likely that your first priority to monetize your website is through Adsense. Adsense is a PPC ad network. PPC or Pay Per Click is an advertising model where the publisher earns from the legitimate clicks on the ads. In other words, if you are running Adsense ads on your website, you will earn when the visitors voluntarily click on the ads displayed on your website.Adsense is an advertising program for Publisher from Google. Yahoo Bing also has an advertising program for publisher known as Media.Net, which is also a PPC ad program.

Second option to monetize your website is through affiliate ad networks. Affiliate ad networks are CPA Advertising program. CPA or Cost Per Action is an advertising program where the advertiser pays for the action on the ads. The actions could be a product purchase, sign-ups, lead generation etc. One of the most used CPA programs is Amazon. You can learn more about CPA here viewtopic.php?f=67&t=23983

It is very difficult to earn from PPC and CPA program because the visitors have to click on the ads or perform actions. For the publishers who receive small traffic, it is even more very difficult to make money from PPC and CPA programs. Here comes the importance of using CPM ads on your website.

CPM or Cost Per Meli (also called Cost Per Impression) is an advertising program where the advertiser pays the publisher for an ad impression, which is generally calculated on the basis of 1000 impression. In other words, if you are a publisher running CPM ads, you will earn some amount every time someone visits your website.

Here are some CPM ad networks that I am using. I am not saying these are the best CPM ad networks, however, you will be earning from the traffic without worrying about clicks or actions on the ads.

Propeller Ads: If you Google CPM ad networks, you will find Propeller Ads ranked very high. It is true that Propeller Ads is one of the most used CPM ad networks. However, Propeller Ads is a Popup/Popunder ad network and visitors do not like these ads. Popup and popunder ads are the ads that appear on the front page or on the background when you click on the website. In case you do not like to use pop up and pop-under ads, you will not find propeller ads very useful.

Adhitz: Adhitz is a PPC as well as CPM ad program for publisher and advertiser. If you are a publisher, you might find Adhitz useful because you not only earn for ad clicks, but also from impression as well as actions. For example, when a visitor clicks on Adhitz ads on your website, you will earn from that click. If the visitors perform the action on the ad, you will earn from that action. In case there is no click or action, you will still earn from the impression.

Bitcoadz.io: If you are a small publisher another CPM ad network you might consider using Bitcoadz. Bitcoadz is a CPM, CPA, CPC, and POP ad network. If you are not a fan of POP, you can still use CPM, CPA, or CPC ads from Bitcoadz.

It's many similar sites on market but some don't accept new sites, some don't pay with PayPal or payout is very high. Publisher should consider all coditions and choose best.

[Rational Mind]

I am using all of these ad networks, however, I think only Adhitz can be considered good paying.

I think ADhitz has a decent pay rate. Propeller ads is terrible.

[MysticMoons]

I tried all these and all of them did not count views. and did not pay anything after 3 weeks I got rid of them.
Adsense is slow but at least counts some views and earns something. But I earn more from my funny pics site now, so I try to direct traffic to that site with many things now.

I will keep adsense for now, it's the only network that works somewhat well.

I do get occasional clicks on my adhitz ads, I get 4 cents per click if it originates in Tier 3 country and 8 cents of it originate on tier 1 country.

I think most of the CPM networks are actually Pop up or Pop under ad networks. Pop up and pop under ads are not only bothersome but also low paying.

That's very true. Most of the CPM advertisers are Pop up ad networks.The CPM rate on these pop up ad networks is very low. For instance, I am using Propeller ads and the rate is between 21 to 35 cents for 1000 visits.

[johnywalker]

I think pop up campaign with CPM ad network is better than running pop up ads on your website

[Chameli]

I have used pop up ad as a publisher, however, I have never tried pop up ads as a publisher. You can get traffic through this advertising method, however, I am not sure whether this traffic converts or not

[Rational Mind]

Even after using pop up ad networks for many months, I have not reached the payment threshold. There is no hard and fast rules to join, however, making money is even harder.

[Chameli]

I am using the ad networks that I mentioned in the article. However, I am yet to reach the payment threshold on these ad networks. I have been using Adhitz since November, and I have not even made $10.

[johnywalker]

You can benefit from pop up ad networks only when you have a lot of traffic. But then if you already have a traffic, you will benefit more from PPC ads than pop up ads.

You have a point. The CPM rate that I receive for my site for propeller ads is $1 per 1000 visits. If I am receiving 1000 visist per day why should I use Pop up ads as I can earn more from PPC.

The CPM rate for propeller ad depends on the traffic location. If you are receiving traffic from Tier 1 countries, you receive better CPM rate.

[Rational Mind]

I have decided to stop using Propeller ads once I receive my first payment. You need a lot of traffic to earn from propeller ads, however, if you already have a lot of traffic why should you waste it for a pop up ad network.

[Chameli]

If you are using pop up ads, it is very difficult to make your traffic returning traffic, Pop up ad networks are very harmful in terms of traffic retention. However, they can at least help you make money as you do not require ad clicks or product sales.

[Rational Mind]

Pop up ads are good for the PTC and faucet where thre are a lot of registered users who visit the site regularly.

[johnywalker]

If most of the CPM ads are pop up ads, I think I will have to forget about CPM ads. I will concentrate on CPA an PPC ads.

Yes, most of the CPM ad networks are pop up ads. The pay rate for pop up ads is very low. On Propeller ads, I am not even receiving $1 per 1000 impression.
