For Those That Use ValueClick

[jfontestad]

I just recently signed up to ValueClick.

I was wondering if you all could help me out and point me in the right direction as to what I should do to maximize potential revenue for my site. (Are there specific Ads that I should display etc...). I'm new to ValueClick and still do not fully understand how it all works, but hopefully with help from you all things will turn around.

Also wanted to know is it alright to have ValueClick and AdSense on same page?

hey, there... i'm pretty new to it too and am looking for the same things you are :)
hope someone with experience posts here.. as for having adsense with valueclick, that is allowed.

Anyone, No-one, Someone?

I'm also wondering what banner would be best to place on the site.

>.> valueclick pays you on visits alone, and anything interactive ppl usually click anyway :\

ValueClick is CPM banner advertising. Not too much to understand. Put ads on your webpage and you get paid per 1000 views. I run adsense and valueclick on the same page, I made sure to disable and CPC campaigns in valueclick. From my experience the medium rectangle seems to pay the best other than the popunders.

I suggest you read the "tutorials" section in the your valueclick start page. There is a lot of info there.

The tutorials on VC are very good. Just read them. Adsense and VC do not have any problems together. Everyone uses this combo

I make about $65-70 per day with 180,000 page views. I use their pops, 468x90, 728x90, interestrials, and ivue.

They are OK - they don't fill much and ivue doesn't display much. There pops are however pretty cool because they don't come up often but still make good $.

Did you get into fastclick, or just sign up and are awaiting a response?

Does taking out all the cpc ads help increase earnings? on the site they advice you to leave the cpc ones on... just wondering. Also, would taking out those ads that pay like .03 ecpm help? or will i just get a lot of blank ads being displaced.. right now I just left everything on

[idzone]

The more variety of ads you allow, the better fill % you get, more the money. This is a thumb rule.

[jfontestad]

I noticed that you can only have 1 ad per page (can have multiple ads but the same one shows up in different spots), is there anyway to integrate different ad type?

Ex. One Medium Rect. & One 768*90 banner?

I'm sorry but I am kinda bad at math, how much unique visitors would that be?

I just applied for valueclick lastnight.

One other thing I was wondering was how often do stats update?

I've been running the ads on my site for a few hours now and still all the stats say 0. I'm guessing that they aren't live, so I was wondering about how long does it take for an update cycle.

[DavidR]

It's about 1-2 hours delay on stats.

[MaxS]

VCM is alright - decent fill rate, pathetic CPM rates.

[jeremy860]

valueclick rejected me. Anybody know any good alternatives?

cpx interactive i think.

cpx interactive i think.

right on... you ever try adversal?

[Marx]

Yea I use adversal, low rates $0.83 FOR US traffic and about $0.23 for other, they pay on time and by paypal if you wish

Medium rectangle does the best for me and it can be placed it below the fold. I don't use pop-ups, invues or interstitials. I turned off all CPC and takeover ads at VC. There is no restriction on mixing PPC ads with VC ads.

Try casalemedia.com as an alternative to VC.

I would also reccomend teh tutorials, also you should simply study a few competitors sites...
