I've heard many people getting lots of success using adbrite, and I've also heard it was better for sites that get lots of views but have a low CPC. I remember using it a couple years back and it having a lot of weird options, and it paid extremely low compared to adsense but I get the feeling it paid so low because I didn't know how to use it efficiently.. Is there a certain way to use it correctly? Can somebody please fill me in.
The following are fairly basic tips to maximize your earnings, but often it's the tried-and-true advice that works best. 1) Choose prominent, above-the-fold zone placements The old adage says three things matter in real estate: location, location, location. The same is true for online advertising. To maximize revenue production, make sure your AdBrite ad zone is prominently placed. This usually means "above the fold" (at the top of the page) or near other content areas where users are likely to discover and engage with ad messages. With more prominent placements, users are more likely to click on your ads, and advertisers will find your inventory more desirable. All of this should increase your revenue yield per page. 2) Choose banner-and-text zones AdBrite offers site owners lots of flexibility to choose how ads are displayed on your sites. Over time, we've found that standard zone sizes, which expose your site to banner and text ads in our auction, yield maximum revenue for publishers. For example, the medium rectangle (300x250) is our highest-yielding ad placement. Choosing one of our five standard banner-and-text zone sizes exposes your zone to the maximum possible advertiser demand from both banner and text advertisers. More buyers usually mean more relevant ads and a higher price. 3) Try Inline and Full Page Ad products By choosing above-the-fold banner-and-text zones, you've already set yourself up to receive our highest-yielding banner and text ads. To boost your revenue even further, try inline ads and Full Page Ads. Inline ads are interactive and take up less real estate than standard zones. Up to eight words that you already have on your site will be highlighted, and you generate revenue when a user mouses over the double-underlined word and clicks on an associated text ad. Full Page Ads allow you to earn incremental revenue without using your website space. Your site visitors will be directed to an advertisers live url and will have the option to 'Skip this ad' and return to your site. I would recommend reading through our Publishers FAQ which has many tips and tricks on how to maximize your earnings and optimize your site. You can find it through our help page.
