CPM (cost per a thousand impressions) is a campaign type, in which an advertiser pays for 1,000 ad impressions. CPC (cost per click) is a campaign type in which an advertiser pays for each click on an ad.
CPM is very common if the goal of the campaign is branding or awareness. CPC campaign type should be used when an advertiser wants to pay for the direct visitors’ response.
There are 2 available ad formats: text or image ad. An image ad may be static (max size - 200 Kb) or dynamic (max size - 400 Kb).
You can choose from among this list of available banner formats: 728x90, 468x60, 125x125, 200x200, 250x250, 300x250, 300x100, 250x100, 336x280, 160x600.
The minimum bid starts from 0.0000205 BTC (CPC campaign) and 0.000025 BTC (CPM campaign). The higher the bid is the better visibility your ad has.
Top up your main balance (we request at least 3 network confirmations) and get an email saying that the funds were charged. Then transfer funds from the main balance to the campaign balance and get new visitors.
Top up the main balance first and then transfer funds from main balance to the campaign balance. By the way, you can use your main balance as a wallet: you may transfer funds to your campaign, split them between several campaigns and withdraw them.
At the moment geo targeting, device and daytime targeting are available for our advertisers. Interest targeting and categories of interests coming soon.
When selecting countries and websites from which you want to get traffic, you can also choose to get traffic from other countries/websites. You can set a lower bid for such websites/countries.
It’s recommended to set 60% from your initial bid.
Frequency capping is a number of impressions you allow each visitor to have per day / per 3 days / per week. You can also choose to set the limit for each ad or campaign.
For example, if you set frequency capping at 5 (per ad & per day), it means that each website visitor won’t see the ad more that 5 times a day.
The ad spaces are optimally chosen by our algorithms from among our publishers on the basis of the bid selected and other various parameters. However you can manually choose the sources where your ads will be shown and forbid to show your ads on some of our sources.
Analyze the sources from which you get clicks and ban those with poor conversion rates.
You can whitelist countries and websites from which you’d like to get traffic. At the same time, you can blacklist countries and websites which you don’t want to receive traffic from or which have poor conversion rates for your ad campaign.
