    The green area or the Banner on the bottom which one should I charge more for?

    Also what is a good CPM advertising price?

    Thanks!

    (size of content is smaller than it will be it just gives you some sort of idea).

    So 5 cents per impression? And which spot do you think should cost more? The banner @ the bottom or the side 350x350 box?

    It isn't a proxy site. It will be a site similar to Freerice.com

    Thanks!

    Another question:

    Is 2x for the 350x350 fine? It will get a bunch of more clicks I believe.

    If I charge $8/1000 for that and $5/1000 for the bottom banner is that a good price?

    Let me know people :D.

    Nice site dude. Bottom banner price seem to be a bit higher to me. 350 * 350 I think will get more than twice traffic. So bottom banner should be 50% or lower of the 350

    Also an unsolicited suggestion - Your site will get huge traffic if you make it as a facebook app.

    Depends on how good the traffic is, but $$3-$5 should be about right

    So what kind of price range are you talking?

    And would I be better off just using CJ, Adsense, and Linkshare ads?

    I will say $8 CPM for 350 and $4 CPM for Bottom Banner. Try and see if it converts.
    U probably wont make much at least with CJ and LinkShare. Adsense you may give a shot.

    Would adsense be allowed on a site like this?

    site like Freerice.com makes their money off linkshare, if you think of 1000 impressions = $12 with ads, you don't think every 1000 impressions with mix of CJ/Linkshare + adsense I would make that much?

    Also which other advertising platforms would u suggest?

    Would you consider allocating more space for content, mate? :D LOL
    As the market is right now, nobody will advertise on a site that is prevailed by ads.

    How much traffic are you gettin? What is the traffic like (what countries, what age group etc)?

    As you should know, the sidebar banner attracts more attention. SO the CPM for that should be high than the banner below,

    I would suggest to fix a low CPM at first like some 2-3$/1000. See the results of conversions and click through and if they are good...be free to increase it to $5 or higher from the next month itself.
