Small to medium publishers look for ad networks offering a good CPM rate. When compared with Google AdSense, there are many good ad networks offering better revenue, service, and support.
Finding the perfect AdSense alternative is not an easy task for publishers. However, publishers can try finding ad networks that fit their requirements. If a better CPM rate is your requirement then this list is for you.
Are the CPM Ad Networks Right For You?
Although it is necessary to partner with the ad networks, you need to ensure that they are the right choice for you.If you’ve decided to partner with CPM ad networks, then let me help you.
How much do CPM ad-network pay?
You know CPM ad networks pay you based on the impressions you deliver. Let’s say you gave them 10,000 impressions and your CPM is $5, then they’ll pay you $50 in total. So, keep an eye on traffic all the time. After all, even the best ad network won’t be able to help you, if your traffic is sinking every day.You might find CPM ads very appealing, but they work best for bloggers who get a high volume of traffic. If you are driving traffic in the area of thousands of visitors per day, then you can get a good amount of money from CPM ads.
Most CPM networks pay $1 to $10 per one thousand impressions (depending upon various factors).
Here’s a list of CPM ad networks which offer some of the highest payouts in the industry:

Infolinks:
Infolinks ads are not traditional diplay ads that other networks such as Google AdSense might serve. Rather, the intent of Infolinks ads is to combat the end-user’s banner blindness by introducing less prevalent ad units that are better integrated into the website’s content. Infolinks’ inFrame, inSearch, inTag, and inText units are designed to do just that.
If you are not sure about how Infolinks works, then read on and you will get all the details about this online advertising platform. If you are using Infolinks to monetize your website, then what you have to do is insert links in some of the texts of your content.
Now when any user will visit your site and they will move around the cursor of the mouse over these special texts, then the link will enlarge and an informational window will pop up with the advertisement, making an adview.
So, how do you make money out of it? Simple, you have to generate most number of adviews in order to earn more and more through your sites.
