Hey guys,
As most of you know, I spend a lot of my time working with successful website owners who regularly generate $XXXX+ a month from their sites.
I've spent a lot of time with my own sites and have seen clients looking for alternatives to Adsense. Some of the reasons you may need an alternative:
- To spread your risk from just using Adsense
- Adsense account banned
- Don't like Google
- Testing for highest earnings
I usually recommend no more than 80% of your income from Adsense. That way, if you do have issues/get banned/earnings drop you can quickly switch to something else where you have an established account.
I've tried quite a few networks now, but media.net usually win it for me vs. others that can pay much less. It usually takes a few days to get approved and their account managers can be a bit slow but at least you speak to a human rather than Google! Tip - use the ads that look like regular navigation - always get good CTR with those!
Attached a screenshot from a dashboard - I've blanked out exact stats but you can see most of what you need.

My friend runs a site where they have great relationships with a number of networks and they are currently offering his readers 10% extra for the first 3 months working with them (media.net). You can see a little more here.
Enjoy
