CPM ad network

[superguy 137]

Can anybody direct me to a good CPM Banner Ad Network?
Help is appreciated.

How many impressions do you get monthly? I have to ask because every CPM ad company has different minimum impression requirements.

 

[superguy 137]

Around 0.5-5k (my traffic varies a LOT).

 

[JLogan]

Yeah, not many CPM companies are going to accept you. Plus, you aren't going to make anything with that traffic. You're much better off using affiliate programs and marketing those toward your visits. With 5k impressions you won't even make a $1.00 from CPM.

I would agree with JLogan that if your traffic is that low that you should look into going to another direction. I have never had much luck with CPM anyways.

Yeah, with that amount of traffic you would seriously make more targeting your visitors with super niche related affiliate programs. Or you should really consider selling banners by yourself. You can easily make $5-10 every 2 weeks if you wanted to by selling ads manually. And you could make $xxx with an affiliate program if your monthly traffic is legitimate ... it's just a matter of targeting and picking out good things to market to your visitors.

Yeah, you're not going to make much with that kind of traffic, but there are some CPM networks that don't insist on a minimum: Smowtion, CPMFun and CPMLeader come straight off the top of my head, but they don't pay very well.

Actually I am in the process of getting things ready to sell banners myself. I was just hoping to put in when I had no people interested, but take them off when people were buying adspace.

Why not fill the space with an ad that directs to page where people can contact you for an ad purchase? Seriously, with 5k impressions you're not gonna make much from a CPM company.
