That particular website receives 3K unique visitors daily. So over a 10 day period, approximately 30K unique visitors. Uniqueness is measured over a 24-hour period only. I’ve just been paid $2.83 via PayPal of which $0.41 went in PayPal fees.

I don’t think there is a need to do the calculations. The average CPM is extremely low. The quality of ads shown is also quite poor.

Feel free to evaluate CreditBurner on your own website to see if you get better payouts.

CreditBurner is a Paid-To-Promote (PTP) network. They provide a wide range of options ranging from banner ads, text ads, pop unders, interstitial ads, etc. All paid on a CPM basis. Currently all publishers get a $0.35 bonus on signup. Payments are made via PayPal or EGold on a fortnightly basis and all you need is a minimum of $2.50.

CreditBurner calculates CPM based on unique visitors. Earnings details are shown below:

As you can see, size and location of banner ads on your site does not impact the earnings. I’m giving this a try on one of my websites. I’ll post a review of the earnings I make from it after a week or two.

We are seeing some changes to the AdSense program after the DoubleClick acquisition by Google. Google is going to be discontinuing the AdSense referral program in the last week of August ‘08. Instead of this, they will adopt the “DoubleClick Performics Affiliate Network” as a replacement.

An excerpt from their email:

Why is this happening? We’re constantly looking for ways to improve AdSense by developing
and supporting features which drive the best monetization results for our publishers.  Sometimes, this requires retiring existing features so we can focus our efforts on the ones that will be most effective in the long term. For this reason, we will be retiring the AdSense Referrals program.

MarketLeverage is one of the web’s largest “Cost Per Acquisition” (CPA) networks. They believe in the concept of Performance Marketing for both Advertisers and Publishers.

Advertisers using MarketLeverage only pay for verified leads or sales and not on a CPC/CPM basis.

Publishers benefit significantly from MarketLeverage as well. You are assigned your own Publisher Manager right from day one. Publishers receive commission cheque payments via FedEx , and can take advantage of the industry’s highest paying lifetime referral program, where you earn 5% of the commission for each and every publisher you refer that signs up as a MarketLeverage Publisher.

WidgetBucks has secured a $10 million investment to expand its ad network.

An excerpt from their blog post:

The investment was led by Draper Fisher Jurvetson, one of the world’s premier venture capital firms. Ignition Partners, which supplied the company’s original venture backing, also participated in the financing. This investment really allows us to expand our vision as an ad network, which will only mean great things for our publishers.

I received an email from Smorty today announcing the launch of their Digxa Mini Store. An excerpt from their email:

Publish contextual click through advertising on your blog with Digxa Mini Stores. This customizable solution allows you to place both standard and pop up product banners from related words within your posts. For example, the words “mobile phone” may generate a visible link that pops open a banner advertising a “mobile phone” if the visitor places their mouse over it. If this product is clicked on, you will receive a commission ranging up to $0.60.

You get the option of customizable banners and rollover pop-up ads, similar to Kontera ContentLinks. I have not yet evaluated this service, hence I’m not in a position to comment on how good it is. I’ll try and cover that in a future post.
