    Would like to get some good ones too, but with no pop-ups and don't mind for every view, uniques are good too.

    Most cpm networks don't like forums due to the high pageviews per unique ratio, as with cpm the advertiser would have to pay for each impression, some of which would be on the reply page which I imagine gets very few clicks. Yes forums can be good for branding, but for that I would go with full sponsorship rather than a cpm network like the Sitepoint forums. That way the advertiser gets a good bit of branding as they are on every page.

    Burst Media does accept some forums, but their rates are lower than for general content sites. Otherwise you might try a second tier network such as CPX Interactive, Right Media, Realtech or Joetec.

    In contrast, cpc networks are normally happier to accept forums as long as they are well moderated as the advertisers only per for performance, so if you only get one click from every 10,000, they will only pay for that one click rather than all of those non performing impressions. Give AdSense or YPN or similar a go.

    CPA - AzoogleAds, CJ, etc is always another option

    i really don't feel the quality will be there on the forum traffic....

    may be because the traffic coming of forums is not unique and is not generally potential traffic.

    CPM agencies that sometimes will end up paying $0.25 CPM or no payment at all? No thanks. Better stick with targeted affiliate programs and PPC.

    so that depends with which you choose to go..

    fraudal are every where but you need to pick the one that is correct..
    :D

    don't try to misguide saying CPM don't pay.. the support and feedback varies with the Network itself.

    I'm not misguiding anyone. I'm just stating that most ad providers will have low cpm's. This is a fact. I have tested dozens of them as a publisher, and as an advertiser. Some don't even pay when you have less than 50% of US traffic.
    How can you restrict that? Only if you do IP cloaking.

    But a quick search on DP will show lots of similar experiences. Read a lot before signing with a company.

    If you read carefully I said sometimes. Never said CPM doesn't pay.
