My Taggify Experience

    I run four Picture/Video-only blogs. These blogs generate a good amount of traffic, but are relatively difficult to monetize as they have very little to no context. I try a new ad network every other day, and generally get around $0.5 eCPM. Three days ago I stumbled on Taggify and signed up.

    So far I've had a very good experience with them. Registration is quick, approval is quick and ad serving is also quick. They have different ways to monetize your site, but I chose all of them for the first test. So far I'm on $1.38eCPM, but I basically make all of my money off their Vidiofy option, where the eCPM is currently at $8.33.

    No payment requested so far, will do an update when I get there.

    Have you tried them? What is your experience?

    Haven't tried them, actually, how do you manage to get much traffic with little content on your blogs?

    The majority of traffic comes from Google Image search. Recently I've seen a decrease in Google traffic, but increase in traffic from social networks.

    Taggify update : eCPM dropped to $0.65

    are you getting the SM traffic from simple reposting of the links to your blog, or have you also created the blog community pages?

    I do have Community pages for all my blogs, but I rarely use them as I'm too busy managing other blogs and their community pages. The social media traffic mostly comes from visitors sharing/liking/up-voting individual posts.

    Wow, then you must have a lot of active and devoted users, I should say. From my experience, the community pages are what forces people to be more engaged, guess your case is like a exception of a rule

    My eCPM rate has dropped from 0.6 to 0.2 since 5 days ago.
    I have emailed support, hope the eCPM rate increase.

    I didn't try to use this ad network, but will check it. Try Stipple that allow ads on the pictures or tagging them. Let us know when you will get first payout.

    Haven' tried Stipple yet, but it looks like the concept is different from Taggify. It's more product orientated.

    How come people get 0.2 CPM. Mine was 0.11 , then next day 0.09 and today 0.01 (the least they can provide :)). Daily traffic more than 2000. Will try them or a week in hope that cpm will get better.
