CPM for video game sites

I run a small network of video game sites. The largest of these is a forum that gets around 2,000,000 impressions monthly.

I've searched around but not found much better than $0.5 CPM offers. Is anyone out there doing better than that with semi-large video game sites?

 

Epic Game Ads
Surge Direct
CPMStar

 

What kind of CPMs are you getting with those companies?

Every time one of these threads pops up everyone just lists off a bunch of sites with no explanation. Of course, the sites are unwilling to give any details about what kind of actual CPM you can expect and applications often take weeks for approval. I'd rather know whether or not a site is worthwhile before signing up for 100 of them blindly only to find out they're actually useless.

 

$0.50 CPM is pretty good, i don't think you will find anything better.

 

Agreed $0.50 CPM is great. You will not find much better.

 

I think the OP may actually mean $0.05. With $0.5 i don't know how anyone in their right mind would be unsatisfied, especially if they own a video game site.

 

I do think the best way is to fish around. Why not try a different ad network. It might convert better for you. At trafficbroker.com you can get an accurate impression of your revenues in about 24-48 hrs. And can benefit from bonuses

 

true, 0.5$ i think is far beyond what any ad network would offer

 

EpicGameAds.com will give you $5 CPM rates (popunders) (They also work with CPA/CPC)
They also have banners,leadersboards,blocks etc. The CPM rates for those are a bit lower unfortunately, but you should try it out.
If you get 2 million impressions monthly, you can make big amounts of money

 

If you have good US, UK and European traffic, you may try Fidelity Media Brand Safe Remnant Traffic Network. It's a good solution to monetize your remnant inventory as you may use us jointly with other networks. We offer 60/40 revenue share deal and run CPM banner and pops campaigns.

are you hosting live games too ? if so spotXchange have in Game ads , around $6 CPM for US traffic

 

Nope, no flash games or anything. These sites are information sites about console and PC video games.

 

Nope, I did mean $0.5.

Keep in mind this is CPM, not CPC.

 

what adnetwork are u geting for $0.50 cpm.

Thats alot for an adnetwork.

 

Exactly, if you wouldn't mind sharing .. it'd be great.

Also, how are the eCPM rates for US traffic and international traffic on SurgeDirect?

Thanks

That post was from almost 2 years ago. The network that was paying $0.5 CPM for gaming sites is no longer in business.
