    2) If not, what's the difference?

    3) What are some good CPM networks?

    Thanks a lot!
    Media Buys mostly refer to buying ad/banner space on a website.

        CPM = Cost Per Mille (Mille is 1,000 in Latin)

        Therefore, CPM is how much it would cost to display an ad on a website or with a network (in a media buy) 1,000 times.

        So let say that a site's CPM is $20. They will display your ad 1,000 times on their site for $20.

        This is much different than PPC (Pay Per Click) because you pay per impression, whether they click through or not.

        CPM can be really effective if you know you have a banner/ad with a high CTR (Click Thru Rate) and an effective ad placement on the website

        As far as CPM networks are concerned, you can try going directly to the website, use BuySellAds.com or Clicksor.com. I know quite a few of them have deposit minimums, though, so have money ready to put down.

            CPM is how you are paying. If the CPM is 0.50 you are paying that per 1,000 impressions..

            A Media Buy can be on a single website or across a network of sites.

            Not at all.

            Media buying is the act of purchasing a banner or ad on a website. You could even say that purchasing an ad on a billboard on the side of the highway is media buying.

            CPM is a statistic, just like CPC (Cost Per Click) is a statistic.

            Think of it like this:

            1. You run a PPC (Pay Per Click) campaign on Google. This is the method, but first you must determine your CPC (this is a statistic) so you know if your PPC campaign will be profitable. Your CPC may be $1 per click aka you pay $1 everytime someone CLICKS on your ad.

            2. You run a media buy (banner ad) campaign at The Music Ninja - Discover new music everyday. You pay the owner of the blog so much money to display your banner ad at the top of his blog 1,000 times, which is the CPM.

            Also, not to confuse you even more, but Google Adwords offers CPC where you pay every time your ad gets a click or CPM which is where you pay them for 1,000 impressions spread across various sites within their network.

        Well, I think for media buy you should find someone to guide you. Some one who really knows details about media buy.

        If you want to do it buy yourself then I think it's going to be a hard way, you'll so much time and money. Do yourself a favor, find someone to guide you.

        bro you have to use each of them and see which one works for you, what works for me might not work for you and don't expect anyone to guide you to the success and person above me said is absolutely wrong, you need to find the winner campaigns yourself, no one is going to tell you there campaigns making them millions.
