Ad network or your own sponsor spot?
A network finds the advertiser and pays per view. Your own spot pays a monthly price you set, and you find the sponsor.
Free for 1 site and 3 spots · no card
At 50,000 pageviews a month: Your sponsor spots $80 asked, Google AdSense $90–153, Carbon Ads $60–115, EthicalAds $125.
Networks pay every month they fill. A spot pays for the months someone books, and it can run beside AdSense.
Estimates from each network’s published rates and sites’ own advertise pages. More on prices
