Is AdNow.com the best alternative to other networks?

    Hello, I was searching for an alternative network to monetize my site, I used Chitika, bidvertiser etc.. just wanted to try something new… My friend suggested me to get registered on AdNow.com using his referral link (so he is earning money with widgets on my site :) )

    And here are my remarks:
    • Visitors are fed up with banners of well-known networks that repeat on each site, and adnow.com offers completely different widgets. This means you probably will get more clicks.
    • CTR is higher than Adsense, because people got used to these Adsense banners and don’t click on them
    • Sometimes delay in tech support.
    • Sites with a small traffic are allowed (that’s is a big ADVANTAGE compared to big networks that accept websites with 500K and more traffic), but CPC is a little bit low
    • What’s interesting: their ads are compatible with your other partners’ ads. By the way, Taboola doesn’t allow such experiments and normally they want to occupy all possible spaces on your site.
    • Payments can be arranged before payout time for some circumstances.
    • They are young and try to win the market and that’s why they have friendly customer support.
    So, I just wanna say, Adnow offers flexible conditions. In the beginning, I was a little bit afraid by negative reviews, but I decided to try and don’t complain. I think sometimes few mistakes happen to ‘green’ companies’, but time passes and usually they work on their bugs. For me, it was a pleasant experience.

    ain't that the perfect example of how people come to adnow?

    yes, most of the time it's just a wish to try something new. totally understandable, if you ask me. a lot of such platforms don't change their banners too often, so in order to increase CTR it's easier to change the whole platform.

    adnow.com is okay, I usually mix it with revcontent and criteo. strongly recommend to try.

    I wouldn't be able to answer that question because Its not up to a month I signed up on Adnow.com
    but so far, they've been treating me well. I don't have issues with them as I have had with other ad networks.
    Who knows, this could just be the right choice.

    I also came across this young company here on this forum. But I saw so many degrading reviews about them.
    Have you received any payments yet? What can you say as regards the CPM and CPC?

    That's almost offending! :)

    Check this, this and this. Most of the people actually like Adnow. :)

    I personally prefer to use Adnow only with other networks or not to use them at all, but that doesn't mean that there isn't people who like them.

    Adnow is better than any other one I used. Say Taboola, Chitika, Adsense, and whatever!
    It is the only fair adnetwork I've used. Period!

    The worst experience I had with them was few days ago. My ads code weren't working.
    Though they fixed it the next day, but I was pissed off because that day's traffic wasn't worth it.

    Oh, it's a pity that this network goes from not bad to worse...

    I wouldn't be right if I say they are worst.
    I was also practising something unhealthy. I paid someone for traffic generation. Little did I know he was sending in fake traffic.
    My site was also looking spammy.

    Oh.. you see..
    Most times we tend to blame different ad networks when we don't make enough profits, putting aside our own UNHEALTHY site practices which could even give us a bad site reputation and Alexa ranking.

    I don't think they are bad. I gave them a shot. I haven't had a cause to regret.
    I'm watching closely but I'm still satisfied.

    Adnow pays. I once spoke with a customer care representative. She said the payment process may take time due to compilations and other bottle necks sometimes but that they do everything within their power to speed up payment processes.
    I believe this because about 3 people in my circle of website owners have received last month's payments

    So you mean you mean it took time.
    well thank goodness you eventually got your payment.
    That's something to trust them for.
