Looking to sell ~125mil ad impressions per month at 0.04 CPM

wutz · 05-04-2011, 10:36 PM

I have a site that shows a large number of ads per day. About 3-4 million. Getting an average of 1.75 million pageviews per day with slightly less than 3 ads shown per pageview. But the actual number of visitors is relatively low, about 20,000 unique visitors per day, 300,000 unique visitors per month. I've been getting low CPMs recently and I'd just like to stop having to deal with this stuff, and sell the whole lot of ads to someone for $0.04 CPM, and be done with it. Will serve ads using google small business publisher or whatever it's called.

The site is somemangas.com and it is a manga reading / discussion site. Site is 54,795 in alexa and 38,335 in the US.

Ads are roughly equal parts wide skyscraper (160x600), leaderboard (728x90), and medium rectangle (300x250). There are places which would be very conducive to a large rectangle, or even an interstitial ad, but I do not currently show those and would need higher CPMs if I was going to.

I don't want to deal with anything like "only show X ads to each individual per Y hours" stuff I just want to sell the ~125 million ad impressions per month straight up, and let the advertiser worry about what to do with them. $0.04 is a really low CPM so I figure someone who knows what they're doing should be able to make a good profit from it.

I will entertain offers to purchase some lower number of ads, but only if they are a substantial amount (at least 25%) and you will need to pay $0.08 CPM instead of $0.04. I really just want one person to take the whole thing.

Might even be willing to go down to $0.0375 CPM for someone willing to guarantee purchase of all the ads right away and pay upfront for a month or so.

First come first serve unless two people message me / post here within the same ~4 hour period and one of them offers me a higher CPM than I am asking.

Hopefully someone is interested.

The thing is, most people like to test before laying down $5,000 a month. Maybe offer a test of 1 million impressions for like 500 dollars

wutz · 05-04-2011, 10:47 PM

it's only $5,000 per month not $50,000

125,000,000 / 1,000 = 125,000

125,000 * $0.04 = $5,000

i could do tests but really i have other stuff to do, and a 1 million ad test would be $40. i make more than $40 in an hour doing actual work and it would take me more than an hour to talk to somebody and set up the ads and stuff and it's just a pain.

Well, the thing is, laying down $5000 is alot when you don't know the traffic. Why don't you just set up your own CPA lead generation sites with traffic related offers.

If you got that many impressions, why dont you do a revenue share type of deal or collect leads in order to sell them to brokers, etc? With that many impressions, I'm sure you can monetize that traffic MUCH better instead of selling it. Lead generation in finance is the way forward!

I agree with Nick, collect leads! very powerful stuff.

wutz · 05-05-2011, 08:48 AM

I don't know what collecting leads means, or what a revenue share would entail. I just want a set amount of money per impression per month, and I don't want to need to deal with it. I want it to be passive income, so somebody else needs to do the work. If you guys want to offer me some certain amount of money per month and use my site for collecting leads, let me know what that would entail and maybe we can work something out.

If someone wants a million impressions for $500 like xaxistech suggested, I would be totally open to that, since I'd be getting like $0.50 CPM for that.
