    Hi,
    I've an image only website dealing with a lot of non-nude images of actors.

    I'm currently using RevenueHits, Qadarbra which are giving me pathetic CPC/CPM rates.
    I would want to know what are the other options for India traffic that don't give pathetic rates and also have text ads. Adcash has rejected me saying no content.
    I'm also using popads which is decent.
    Cannot say anything for infolinks as I've just added that to my website
    eDomz doesn't care to reply to my tickets, which has really put me off big time.

    With over 11k impression Qadabra only gave me 0.22 cents for 11,221 impressions with 11 valid clicks
    I only see iLivid download ads on RevenueHits which gave me 0.03 cents for a CTR of 1.35%

    How do I get over these barriers and choose a network that gives me good rates?

    Hello,
    If your website doesn't have adult content, you can try our (propellerads) onclick popunders and mobile dialog ads.
    If you want to get a higher revenue from banner ads you need to get more impressions and improve your CTR (11 clicks for 11k of impressions is a very low CTR).
    Try to change the placements of the banner ads.

    Already using that. What for Banner Ads and Text Ads. My website is very high on image only. So infolinks can't help much, I believe.

    Hello, sorry for late answer.
    I would recommend you to follow the recommendations from google for their adsense program
    https://support.google.com/adsense/answer/187651?hl=en
    https://support.google.com/adsense/answer/187653?hl=en
    Marking ads as "Advertisement" is also reduces your CTRs.
