Advertising Advice

Hey all,

November is going to be one of the biggest months of the year for my website, as such I'd like to make sure I can optimize my adverts to provide the best revenue.

At the moment we use Infolinks (Text-Ads) GAO (Game advertising online) CPMStar, MaxBounty and Powerlinks. Infolinks is performing well, earned $100 off them for traffic we received on Saturday, however GAO and CPMStar both failed to perform, offering terrible CPM rates as low as 0.03.

They've never performed well but I was hoping with higher traffic I may seen an improvement, alas I have not. Could anyone suggest other networks? Specifically after banner advertisements to replace GAO and a Site Skin to replace CPM Star.

Thanks

    Whatever happened to adsense? Nobody using big G anymore?

    But yeah, Neverblue had some good stuff in there a while ago.

      I used adsense for Triond a couple of years back, Adsense went and banned me 2 weeks after adding it to my website, took all the cash I'd earned as well, haven't gone near them since.

    What niche is your site? Demographics? And how many visitors?

    Any more info guys? I've tried several websites since making this, I wasn't aware banner ads offered such terrible CPM figures.
