For publishers Make money from your website

AdNow is a new advertising site that gives publishers the opportunity to use native ads based on widgets.  At present it has one and a half million publishers.  If publishers are not able to use Taboola, RevContent or Outbrain, AdNow will often accept them.  The RPM rates are similar to Taboola, so AdNow is a good choice.

A little about the company

Digital marketers started AdNow in 2014.  Including people from Big Data and RTB, they created a new hybrid format for advertising.  In order to improve the engagement of users they serve advertising and other areas of interest from websites.  If you are trying to interest clients they are able to use native ads and banners in a simultaneous campaign.

It has taken almost a year for AdNow to develop this prototype, but it got the algorithms right.  The founders had a great deal of experience in RTB, Big Data, Pay per click and other platforms used for advertising.  It has only taken them 2 years to reach the target of being the top Native ad, and this year their statistics include having 1,500,000 clients, with more than 4 billion impressions each month, reaching 107 countries.

What are the requirements for joining the network?

 There are no specific requirements, but they are looking for quality in ads to attract more users.  They actually review each website manually.  There is a short form for registration which is sent in for approval.  They accept publishers, but not if the site actually generates fake users.

Verifying owner ship needs to be completed, either by a file being sent, or the HTML tag.  Once approved publishers can begin earning through the advertised content.  Approval takes only 3 hours, but adult only content will not be approved.  There are no requirements for traffic, but if good traffic is generated that is an advantage. Generating fake traffic through changing the code of the ad, using traffic exchanges or the use of automatic refresher software is not allowed.

How AdNow works

AdNow recommends content offering widget posts that are related to publishers to put up on their websites.  This shows content that is sponsored, which earns money when it is clicked on or visited.  Many webmaster are able to make this very profitable.  AdNow is an effective place to monetise your website.  Content is always checked.  In addition, there are measures taken to ensure there is no conflict with others.  Other advantages include payments made weekly, support in various language and they have made it easy to customise.

The company helps owners to increase the traffic on their website through selling advertising ideas.  Publishers can make money from their own website and additional income when a user is diverted to their advertisers.  The speed of approval makes it one of the best platforms available.

It is difficult to earn money on sites with only a few users.  Publishers need to concentrate initially generating more traffic to their site.  This will entail the use of social media marketing and also optimizing positions in search engines.  The best way to do this is to use quality content, particularly on blogs and do this at least once a day.  When a website has achieved the maximum traffic the company can add a PPC to their own website.

How to get the most from AdNow

AdNow is a great alternative for the beginner blogger who wishes to try to earn some additional revenue through advertising.  AdNow is more flexible than some of the other big names in this business as they do not require the same amount of evidence of users.  It is suggested that you start with 2-3 widgets, and once the codes are written it ads will start appearing.  The widget can be on a sidebar, within the actual content, or at the end.  It has been found that a sidebar works well on a desktop, but not so effectively on mobile devices.

 Reports of earnings

Reports contain all the information you will need.  For example, with two widgets on your site you can almost reach $1RPM.  Because they are native ads they are considered to be content and with a good CTR you will have a nice profit.
