Hi DPs, I need some advice from experience DPs. I've been accepted by both TribalFusion and ValueClick Media and now I don't know which one to use really. I've used Valueclick Media for a week and the results are pretty good. 1) Medium Square - ard 50cents/CPM 2) 120x600/160x600 - ard 50cents/CPM 3) 720x90 - ard 40 cents/CPM And trying Tribal Fusion for 2 days. 1) Medium Square - ard 65 cents/CPM 2) 720x90 - ard 65 cents/CPM However, tribal fusion only pay 55% of the earning, so even though the CPM is much higher than VC, it still pay much lesser. However, I heard from many Tribal Fusion is better. Does anyone know whether will the CPM for Tribal Fusion goes up eventually? Need advice. Thanks!
I've run on Tribal Fusion for the last two years and loved it. I have yet to try a better return company so yep, if anyone here has any better suggestions, I'm all ears.
I've give VC a week and it's pretty good so far and now i'm giving TF a week too. Looking at the current stats, VC looks way better to me... will monitor it and let you guys know.
Dont want to break this to you but I guess I gotta. VC and TF both are similar in earnings, because they will be great but overtime they will adjust your earning base on the performance on your site. You won't be getting great rates all the time if your site isn't delivering clicks. You should be seeing good cpm rates for a few months though.
I would recommend to use both i personally used VC and its working great for me, and regarding Tribal i have heard a lot of good reviews.
I have personally used both and it all depends on your Niche. Tribalfusion is very good with Tech Traffic ... they have one of the highest CPM in the industry for Tech ... for VC it depends, I have been with them for at least 5 years and the numbers are steady but vary from time to time. Personally I like TF better! Darin
I think I'll stick to VC. TF Direct have really low CPM and the 55% revenue sharing makes it even worst. The only thing i like abt TF is their real time reporting capability!! Thanks to those who contributes!
One more question I have is how come some people say VC pay via paypal but when i ask them, they said no. I'm in Australia fyi. Anyone know why is this so?
you have enough traffic,so use both. set the min. bid to 60 cents and add vcm to TF's adserver. i've only used TF for a week. it sucks that the max min. bid is 60 cents,that's only 27 cents and that's what i get from TF direct ads. over all, i'm making more with adding them to my line up so far. depends on the country that handles your account. the US office offers paypal (and direct deposit).the office that sends payment to Australia,may not offer paypal. http://www.valueclick.com/about/contact.html those ValueClick International branches are like separate companies.
I'm fairly sure that VCM does not pay via PayPal at this time. They might have another product out that does though. ValueClick has their hand in affiliate marketing, video, display etc.
Hmm.. then shouldn't it be the other way round, where we should put VC first than add a floating default to TF since VC CPM is much higher and TF CPM is lower (55%)?
