Hey guys, I've been using ADSDAQ on my site since the beginning of December and I'm somewhat confused on how the fill rate works. When I first set up my account, I set my ask price to $1 and was getting around 20% fill rate for the first couple of weeks. Normally my site gets 250k impressions on an average day, so it was working out pretty well. Then my fill rate sank to about 6% (), so I lowered the ask price to $.80 and the fill rate went back up to about 25% for a few days, and then hovered around 15-20%, and in the last couple of days it's hanging around 10%... what's up with that? Does anyone have experience with ADSDAQ and how their system determines your fill rate? Thanks!
I use Adsdaq and from my experience the fill rate is really bad. I found what works best (for me anyways) is just leave the fill rate high at about 2.00 and have the ad network you usually use (in my case google adsense) as your backup impressions. Why? In my case my adsense earnings are still the same but now i am earning extra revenue with Adsdaq. I can't complain if i get an extra 50-100 bucks every few months on top of what i get from google adsense right? Basically, even though the fill rate isn't great don't drop Adsdaq. It's a really great network for getting those few impressions at a really high price! This is my personal experience with them anyways, there are probably other forum members who know more then me and have figured their system out.
I find a good trick is to keep altering your asking price. I don't know if this actually works or if it's just my perception, but I find that for a couple days you get a high fill rate for your asking price (starting about 50-60%) and then it continues to drop. I've heard other people say they find this helps as well.
