    Hi

    I have started to use Adbrite as a test 7 days ago.
    I have put it on a few zones of my page which generate around 4000impressions per day

    (http://site.www.adbrite.com/mb/commerce/purchase_form.php?opid=195904&afsid=1)

    How long did it take for your site to sell the first ad space on Adbrite?

    How long do you think could it take for me to sell adspace on Adbrite?
    I run network ads from them but they generate around 5-10cents a day, which is crap ;)

    What can I do to improve/speed up ad sails on adbrite?

    Thank you in advance

    the problem is people think a ad spot is worth more then it realy is.
    look at it as a advertiser point of view.would you buy an ad on your site?just looking at the stats,it could cost the advertiser dollars a click.
    an ad on your site may be worth $1.80 a month,not $180.
    drop the price way down and see if you get any bites.

    and what do you base this assumption on, please?

    The internet is so messed up with the attitude towards marketing and advertising it is at times unbelievable.

    If you have a site of value with users coming to your site for a topic etc, there is no way why your site cannot be given the value of a paper magazine, if not higher considering the ability to track your users. When last did an advertiser ask how many clicks their advert got in a paper magazine.

    If you under value what your site is how do you expect others to value it

    by the way, just an opinion

    Our site has a very targeted audiance and the price for the ads is actualy lower as we sell it to advertisers directly.

    But the price always depends on the market so if no one is willing to pay your price it is to high (or you have not searched enough for advertisiers) regardless of the quality of traffic.

    But for now I think the price is justified and I will give it 1-2 Month and see if it works.

    Any tips on how to speed up the adspace sell?
    Other then lowering the price?
