Webdigity Webmaster Forums - Adversal popups

As I have mentioned to other threads here, I was searching for a good popup program for my proxy site.

After yesAdvertising banned me (what a scam company) I tried yield manager from right media which is a cool program, but they

1) have low payouts (about 1-1.2 per 1000 impressions)
2) They don't fill the whole inventory (in my case I got only 2.500 impressions of the 8000 that the site had per day)

So I thought to check some other programs, in addition to yield manager. Adversal seems to be a cool company as they fill whole of the inventory,and have much better rates. Bellow I will give a quotation from a review found here

Quote

Pay rates are flat, meaning that they never change which is a great thing. The current rates are $0.80/cpm for U.S based traffic and $0.50/cpm for international sourced traffic. They pay for all impressions, not just uniques so this is great for websites that generate lots of pageloads per visitor.
Adversal is a pop-only network. This means, no banners of any kind. To add a site, you simply go to “Manage” and enter your URL and two related categories. Because this is a flat-rate network, ads shown will not increase or decrease revenue, rather, they’ll be likely more targetted.
Payments are sent out on the 15th of every month, or if that’s a weekend date, the following Monday. Payouts are made through Paypal or by Check. Minimum payout is only $20 which should be easily reached, and if not, you probabaly shouldn’t be exploring the CPM market.

i will keep you posted with my progress on this, please feel free to post your own experience with this company, or signup using this link

(I attached my referal id :) )

Wow thanks, They pay per 1000 raw impressions rite?
And BTW if they say '1000 impressions' is that 1000 raw or 1000 unique?
Cheers

I can't put it on my page. It says put it between the <head> </head> tags but as im using a .inc page i dunno what to do (its a proxy)

They pay for all the impressions if you ask that.

Regarding the proxy, just put their code on the inc file that displays the surf bar (it is not absolute to be inside the <HEAD> tags)

No they don't need to verify. Propably you will need to modify the class file to put them in head (if you are using the phproxy)

IN what way, add code or just edit an attribute?
Didn't relize it was going to be this hard.

I think you should edit something.

If you want create a thread in the php area, and we'll be glad to help.

Allright I added it, and it works. I was wondering if they show ads on every hit, but only pay for one hit?
Everyday i get about 1,000 pageviews, but only 1,000 ads have been shown, I know it could be popupblckers etc.
Ive made 0.71 dollars in one week which i find nice, but i think there is potential for more.

Today I got my first payment. I am very sattisfied, as this company pays you (paypal) 15 days after the month ends! That rocks :)

Nikolas, are you sattisfied with the ads loading? Doesn't they slow down your site?

Nikolas

Fri 22 September 2006, 11:55 pm GMT +0300

Yeah I mentioned that the last two days.

Hope they will solve it too.

Anyway the good thing is that the earnings are still high :)

You mean that this is happening the last two days?
I registered with them today. Their site is very slow. Their ads too. I removed them after 5'. If this is a temporary problem, i will add them again because i also liked what they offered.

Nikolas, do me a favor. If the problem is temporary and after a couple of days will be solved or it will not be solved, please post here. I am interested.
Thank you.
