I’ve been using Adsdaq ads now since about January of 2009 on one of my other sites. Not this one at the moment,since I just started it. I will be adding them to this one in the not to distant future, once I get more content on this site.

Now, the way Adsdaq works, is they allow you to set your own cpm rate on the ad units that you display on your site. They have the 120×600,160×600,728×90 (leaderboard),and the 300×250 box display units.

I currently run all of them except for the 120×600 unit on my entertainment news site,ontheflix.com. The 120×600 doesn’t seem to have a lot of ad inventory so I stopped running it.It would also have a low fill rate,like around 14%. The 0.70 cpm seems to be the magic number for me. I get about a 60% fill rate at that price.

I haven’t tested the 0.80 cpm range yet,but I could guess and say that it would fill around 40% to 45% at that price. The good thing about Adsdaq is they let you add backup tags to your units so any impressions that adsdaq can’t fill,gets filled by your other ad network that you’ve chosen to use as a backup.

The site I run them on gets between 10,000-15,000 uniques a day,and about 16,000-20,000 pageviews a day. I currently make around $500 a month using about four Adsdaq units on that site. They also pay on time by direct deposit right into my bank account so that’s really nice.

They let you choose to be payed by Paypal or check as well. They have multiple payment options,but yeah Adsdaq is the real deal,and probably the best cpm ad network I’ve worked with to date,and I’ve worked with quite a few.

What sets Adsdaq apart from the other cpm networks, is they let you choose your own cpm rate. I’ve ran one of their units at $5.00 cpm once. It only filled about 300 or so impressions,but I still made around $2.00 since it was such a high cpm.

I would say,though, if you get a lot of traffic or any decent amount of traffic like 5,000 or so uniques a day, that 0.60 to 0.80 cpm will add up to a nice chunk of change at the end of the month for you,since the fill rate will be high.
