Hi. I am currently using adsense, which is good, but I am wondering if there is something else I can add? I am also using popads.net, but it doesn't even count all of my traffic. I get around 1000 unique visitors a day.
popads only count sold visitors. So if a visitor has something like Adblock installed, they will never get a popunder, so popads will never be able to sell them for you. Also you can try Media.net , it is best alternative for adsense. + infolinks & chitika
You can try PropellerAds Media. They are offering good CPM rate. You can make upto $10 per thousand CPM for Onclick Ads. I am also working with them.
Do not over do it with ads, let your site grow with less ads, more ads is going to ultimately increase distraction and bounce rate also! You dont want to get rich and lose it over night, you was long sustainable income with a domain which has a clean history and no blacklistings or bans. So stick with adsense for now, when the volume picks up, then I would look to spread it out. But adding MORE is not the answer.
I'm looking for ways to monetize my website as well without AdSense. Growing with fewer ads makes since in the beginning. Because honestly without traffic a site isn't going to make good money anyhow. I'm personally about to be going with Infolinks and an undecided ad network. Would you recommend maybe one banner ad at most while growing?
I generally wouldn't recommend info links on a new site, I'm also not really a fan of their product offering. The big web properties right now, are killing it with RTB and Programmatic selling which is also starting to grow amongst TV Commercials which are starting to push toward programmatic buying. Realistically a new site only needs 1 network, just needs the right partner. The below options are usually done together / in combination, but I would suggest only 1 option at the moment. option 1: a 728x90 ATF / Above or Under Navigation Menu. option 2: content ad, usually a 300x250 or a 160x600 option 3: footer ad usually a 728x90. I would suggest sticking to option 1 for now. ATF 728x90 either above / below navigation. The good money is finding a network who can turn exclusivity into strong demand dollars. PM me some more info about your site, I'd be happy to give you a few options, including the network I work at which specializes in exactly that and is RTB Based while catering to Programmatic Buying Houses and Agencies.
