With so many websites showing up on the web earning from CPC becomes super difficult. And affiliate marketing too is tentative (no wonder it is super powerful but equally tentative) and that too has competition that makes your earnings so narrow that you are forced to maintain multiple sources of income from multiple sources. And in this post, we will see what are the super amazing ways you can earn from CPM ads which technically reduces the margin of revenue you miss when CPC ads occupy space on your blog.
And in this post, we will see what are the super amazing ways you can earn from pure CPM ads which technically reduces the margin of revenue you miss when CPC ads occupy space on your blog.
Since most of the ads on Google Adsense are CPC (Cost per click) it becomes really important to find a bypass that bridges the gap between CPC & CPM. CPM stands for Cost per thousand, don’t mind the “M” there it’s just roman representation of 1000.
CPM is calculated as cost of a campaign divided by the total number of impressions multiplied by 1000. Each time an ad is shown on your page it is counted as a single impression. Now that you know what CPM is let’s get into the main crust of the topic.
Easy, simple and guaranteed approval is what I get in mind when I see Propeller Ads. It’s made for advertisers who are looking to show up to the crowd and for publishers who are super amazing traffic but CPC cuts of their huge margin of revenue.
The reason for signing up for Propeller Ads is that it never rejects you. Even if your blog has low traffic or if you are a newbie it’s perfectly fine, Propeller Ads will welcome you onboard.

Here’s how you can get started with the process
Step 1: Create a free account on Propeller Ads.
Step 2: Navigate to Sites and add sites that you want to monetize.
Step 3: Once you add sites, it’s time to choose from a big set of option that Propeller Ads provide. Click on “New Channel” button and you will be redirected to ad setting window.
Step 4: Once you set up the channel(s) get the code and place it as per instructed or as per your need.
NOTE: For now, banners are not in action but you can make use of other options like Native Direct Ads, popunders and Dialog Ads/Push up
Note: The type “popunder” is little annoying when used on mobile as sometimes the user will be redirected app store (if the ad shown is of an app) which would result in user closing your site directly. This will affect your bounce rate and session time. Use it with caution.
However, on a browser it just open a new tab which still keeps the user on your page and hence your bounce rate and session time is safe. Use this ad type in case maximum traffic on your blog is from desktop and not from mobile.
