What's up with SiteScout impressions?

AD NETWORKS

Right now I'm logged in the SiteScout platform and I see a lot of sites with impressions from 100.000 to 1.000.000 but when I check them out on Alexa, Google Ad Planner, Quantcast, they barely have 3-4 visitors a day. What's up with that?

I'm not sure where you're getting those numbers from but I've always had no problem getting impressions on SiteScout. Are you sure you have the right region selected in SiteScout or AdPlanner? A lot of the placements on SiteScout get most of their traffic from second tier countries.

Remember, you're buying remnant traffic so a lot of it will be from countries that are hard to monetize with other networks.

I'm just planning on starting a campaign but almost all the sites that are showing 100.000 to 1.000.000 impressions are not even in the Alexa 1.000.000+

Nope non of those stats type sites are ever accurate.

They're just guesses.

I understand that they are not accurate. but from 2.000.000+ to 1 or 2 it's simply too much.

  Take slimfitchoices.com for example. Looks like most of their traffic comes from mobile, so if you filter for only web on site scout, you should get results which more match up with what Alexa etc are saying.
