    Anyone NOT using AdSense?

    I'm not, for the simple fact that I have been banned for 'invalid clicks' (Google = ).

    When I had AdSense, for an amazingly long period of 2 and a half weeks, I was making anywhere from a few dollars a day to 10 dollars a day, depending on my forum activity. I have tried AdBrite, after a colleague of mine recommended it, and I'm very disappointed. My site results in 4K-5K impressions during the weekends and up to 5.5K-7.5k impressions during the week; accordingly, I was expecting around 4 or 5 dollars daily when strictly using CPM (since forums have horrible CTR). Instead, I'm getting around 70 cents a day and a CPM of .09! This is with me manually approving Ads only for Ads with a CPM of 20 cents or more! Does this mean AdBrite is taking 50% of the revenue or are their reports wrong?

    Either way, I'm not staying with those awful CPM rates.

    I have applied to a few CPM Networks, which are suppose to be better:

    ADSDAQ (Disapproved)
    ValueClick (Account waiting to be reviewed)
    Agency1 (Account waiting to be reviewed)
    CasaleMedia (Disapproved)
    (Probably another I'm forgetting)

    I've also applied to:

    Chitika (Account waiting to be reviewed)
    InfoLinks (Account denied for having "Arab Sexy" as a keyword WTF?)

    ---

    My site is going to have a hard time getting accepted. Oh yeah, my Adbrite CPM is now 2 cents!! Ridiculous. I should be making a dime a day but it's more like 5 cents a day. Such a rip off.

    AdBrite has gotta be the worst network for CPM...
