Which CPM network to use as primary?

Since I haven't made anything appreciable with AdSense, I have just joined a few CPM networks. It seems they each allow you to specify which network to default to if they can't "fill" you. As between Adsdaq, adBrite, and ValueClick, how should they cascade? Which should be the one I specify the order in? I'm new to all this - I'm used to just pasting adsense code.

Thanks!

Well I run openx and use time slots for adsdaq and adbrite, with google as my backup. I only use adsense for guests ad adsdaq for members and members RARELY ever click on ads, so its better to make money off of impressions......with time slots you can work out through experimeation the best times to run certain ads.....ive learned with all this its just trial and error and see what works best for u

Peace

ADSDAQ > Valueclick > AdBrite

You can use ADSDAQ to serve the other two as backup 50/50 or whatever percentage you want.

Thanks for the input, guys.

I would agree on that, I personally like ADSDAQ most as well, simply because you can set the pricing you want for your ads which has quite some advantages. Adbrite? Why that?

I thought ValueClick didn't allow forums. Did their policies change?

Hmm, good question. I still remember that I had that problem as well. I asked the team and they said no problem to me. Just make sure you place the ads above the fold - that's all they request as far as I know. Popunders are definitely allowed and you should try them.

Let me know how your application goes .

according the TOS you cant use valueclick on forums
