How to use CPM networks for making money at home

Have you ever heard about a technique where you will be making money even if none of your blog or website visitor click on an ad? Yes, it’s possible with CPM (CPM stands for Cost per Mille or cost per thousand impression on an Ad) ad networks. Some CPM network pays you $3 per CPM, some $5 per CPM and even $10 depending upon your website niche and the kind of ad you place on your website and the ad placement.

But to make some good amount of money with CPM ad networks, you need a website with thousands of impressions daily. With CPM advertising networks, we are going to get paid for every thousand impression for an ad. And the amount of money you will be able to make depends upon your website niche. Finance, health or travel websites seems to be making more amount of money compared to education and entertainment related websites per thousand impressions. CPM rates also varies with networks, ad format and ad placement.

If you are working with a popular CPM network, you will be able to make high amount of money per thousand impressions as they have access to large number of targeted advertisers. And when we place CPM ads at the top of our website and use big banner formats, we will be able to earn more with CPM ads. CPM networks share revenue earned in the 60:40 or 70:30 ration with the websites they partner with.

Suppose you have a website that gets 50,000 page views per month and you are getting $2 CPM, then you will be able to make $100 in a month time with that ad.

Here is the list of some of popular CPM advertising networks:

- Adbrite
- Kontera
- Casale Media
- Burst Media
- Value Click
- Tribal Fusion
- Right Media
- Nuffnang
- Click Booth
- Vibrant Media
- Double Click
