Top 10 PPC Sites
1. Infolinks
Infolinks is the 3rd largest monetization
network today, after Google AdSense and Amazon Associates. They
generate high revenue for over 200,000 online publishers in 130
countries. Infolinks is one of the more popular supplementary income
sources because their ad units are comparatively unobtrusive – they
don’t have standard banner space. Instead, the ads appear minimized or
in hyperlinks, and visitors need only to hover their mouse pointers over
the links for the ads to appear.
Infolinks ads are native, free to use,
work great with all other ad solutions and don’t interfere with the
user’s experience. Approval time to Infolinks is quite short, and that’s
because it’s based on your site’s content and not on the amount of
traffic you generate. The installation is super easy with a code you
simply add to the body of your website. You can even use a plugin that
does the work for you if you use WordPress, Joomla, Blogger or Drupal.
You have lots of control over the ads as
to location and number, and their support team is very friendly and
quick to respond. Infolinks’ advertisers are selected based on their
quality, that’s why they work with the best brands in the world like
Facebook, Amazon, Taboola, Ebay, Ali Express, Pizza Hut, TripAdvisor and
many more.
2. Google AdSense
No list of this type would be complete
without mentioning the Google Ad network (The Undisputed King of PPC Ad
networks or easily the best ad network). For bloggers and other website
owners, the place to go is Google AdSense.
One of the main benefits of AdSense is
that Google works with millions of advertisers (it’s Google’s main
source of income) and this makes it more likely that they can deliver
ads that are both relevant and high quality which in turns leads to a
higher CTR and more money for you.
As the website owner, you can control
just what types of ads appear on pages of your site. You’ll have access
to reports and metrics which can show just how effective your website is
working for you. It’s very easy to use, and there are no signup fee
involved. If, you already use Adsense, read some testing and optimization tips to increase your Adsense earnings.
You’ll get to display ads that are associated with the interests of
your visitors, and you get paid depending on the number of visitors who
click on the ads on your site. You can also put in a custom search bars
on your site, and earn money from the ads that appear on the search
results page. You just need to have sufficient ad space and decide where
the ads should go. Advertisers then participate in a real time auction
to appear in your ad spaces and the highest paying ads then appear on
your reserved ad spaces. This video shows you how the auction works.
A lot of people make money from Adsense,
so what’s the catch? If Google AdSense is so good, why doesn’t everyone
use it? The simple reason why- not everyone uses Adsense is that not
everyone is approved to join the network. You have to be approved, and
that means you have to comply with all the conditions Google has laid
out. For example, if the primary language you use in your ad is not
among their list of supported languages, then you’re out of luck.
Many former AdSense members have also
been suspended because they’ve been accused of click fraud. Of course,
being accused is not the same as being guilty, but Google is both your
accuser and judge. If they say they’re suspending your account, there’s
not much you can do. You can appeal, but since you’re also appealing to
Google… well, you get the idea. So make sure your never completely
dependent on it. So despite the Google monolith, there’s space for ad
network alternatives out there.
3. Media Net
This is the Yahoo-Bing ad network and
this PPC ad network pretty much gives you an idea of just how dominant
Google’s PPC ad network is. Internet giants like Yahoo and Microsoft
actually had to combine their efforts and resources in order to offer a
viable ad network alternative to AdSense.
Media Net
gives you relevant ads, and you also have tools to track your
performance in real time. You can control how the ads look so that they
fit right in with your color palette, and you can filter advertisers and
block ad topics. While the number of advertisers can actually compare
to Google’s, the conditions for being approved may actually be more
difficult for many international bloggers.
Aside from the usual conditions such as
having high quality traffic and content, your site’s visitors should
mostly come from the US, Canada, or the UK. You’re also required to use
English as your site’s primary language.
4. Revcontent
Revcontent is one of the biggest content
recommendation platforms on the internet. Even though Revcontent was
founded several years after its competitors Outbrain and Taboola, it has
managed to play catch up exceedingly well and currently serves 100
billion content recommendations a month across the globe with a growth
rate of 900% last year.
Revcontent rejects almost 98% of websites
that apply – focusing therefore on the quality of its publisher network
rather than the quantity. This strategy has helped Revcontent generate
higher revenues, better engagement rates, and loyal audiences for their
partners.
As part of continuous product improvement
efforts, they’ve just launched Revcontent v2, which features an
intuitive user interface that enables transparent reporting and easier
customization of widgets.
5. Bidvertiser
While not quite as well-known as the
first two, Bidvertiser does have some benefits especially if you’ve been
banned from AdSense for some reason. If you have a website and you want
to join, there are the usual conditions such as not allowing adult
sites as well as those sites that sell illegal drugs and those with too
much profanity and hate speech. You can’t join if your website is under
construction, or if your site already has too much advertising to begin
with.
However, many have commented that the
approval process is quick and easy because there seems to be no
requirement regarding traffic volume and language used. There’s an easy
installation with an HTML code to be added to your webpages, and you can
easily change the appearance of the ads. The payout may not be as high
per click, but you earn money not just on clicks but on conversions as
well. Conversions are when the clicking visitor goes to the advertiser’s
website and actually makes a purchase.
There are still problems, though. If you
are focused on a small niche, then the ads that appear may not be all
that relevant to your site. And the reporting is not quite as detailed
as they ought to be; you don’t get a lot of info regarding impressions
or click through rates.
6. Chitika
While the AdSense-deprived website owners
may be flocking to alternatives, the thing about Chitika is that you
can use it alongside other ad networks. It is also considered one of the
best ad networks for adsense banned sites. Approval can take a while
(it may take up to a week), but then you only need to have one of your
websites approved. After you obtain the approval for that one website,
you can then use Chitika for any of your other websites. You can also
resize mobile ads to make it easier for you to generate income from
mobile traffic.
The pay per click rates will of course
depend on the keywords and niche, and the PPC rates may be considered
lower than other ad networks in general. But, there’s a low pay out
limit before you get your money. You’ll need to generate $50 if you want
your money by check but if taking payment through PayPal the limit is
only $10. The main difference between Chitika and the other ad networks
is that the ads aren’t contextual at all. Instead, the ads depend on the
keywords that the visitor typed in the search engine to get to your
site. This can result in somewhat more relevant ads too.
7. Clicksor
This is another haven of AdSense exiles,
and the thing about Clicksor ads is that it doesn’t look quite like the
ads in AdSense (which many ad networks seem to emulate). There are
numerous sizes available to make your ads look different, and there are
unique types of ads as well.
It’s also very easy to install, and like
Infolinks there’s a plugin if you use WordPress, joomla, Blogger, or
Drupal. The approval process is quite quick, and you can have ads from
other networks on the same page as long as you only have 3 ad units from
Clicksor at the most.
8. Vibrant Media
This is one of the more well-known PPC ad
networks right now, and their premium brand advertisers can be seen in a
lot of popular high traffic sites. Their PPC rates are among the
highest in the industry, but the catch is that they just don’t let any
website join in the fun. They have to consider your site to be a premium
site, and one of the conditions seems to be that you ought to get at
least half a million page views each month. The usual publisher
guidelines are also in play, so this means you can’t have anything to do
with adult, gambling, drugs, profanity, hate speech, violence (you
can’t even sell stun guns), or just about anything illegal.
The types of ads Vibrant Media has are
quite innovative, with 11 intext ad formats available to use. This
includes expanding video boxes, multi-button videos and expandable
flash. There’s also in-image advertising, which a lot of visitors find
professional and unobtrusive.
The ads are so effective that the click
through rates can be 5 times higher than the ads generated by AdSense.
They also look great on mobile devices like tablets and smartphones. So
if you are already successful in luring lots of visitors to your site,
you can leverage that popularity by joining Vibrant Media and partnering
with other premium advertisers.
9. Blogads
With a name like that, it shouldn’t come
as a surprise that the ad network focuses its efforts on helping blogs
maximize their profits through PPC ads. If your blog discusses just
about anything under the sun then advertisers may wait until you have at
least half a million impressions per month before they start to
advertise on your site. But if you focus on a very narrow niche (you’re
all about werewolves or Chilean football players) then even 30k
impressions per month may suffice. As a publisher, you control your own
ad offerings and prices, so the income you generate is all up to you.
10. Kontera (rebranded as Amobee)
Getting
into Kontera seems easy and quick enough, and as long as you don’t have
any adult content you should have no problems. The installation is easy
and they also have a plugin for WordPress, joomla, Blogger, or Drupal.
The ads look impressive enough that you won’t be embarrassed by them,
and they have a large ad inventory. The rates are decent too, and you
even get $50 bonus if your site gets at least 25 thousand page views in
the first month with Kontera. They specialize in “in-text” advertising,
and they are focused more on the user’s search terms.| Neobux | ||||
