Do you have a high-traffic website and are looking to monetize the footer of your website with CPM ads? Here, I have compiled a list of the best CPM ad networks that a publisher like you can join & start earning money.
What are CPM ads?
CPM (cost per thousand impressions) advertisements are a great way to earn income with your blog. CPM advertising pays you according to the amount of impressions received on an advertisement.
An “impression” means a single instance of an advertisement appearing on your website. This means that even if your readers are not clicking on your blog’s ads, with CPM ads, you can still get paid.
Note: To ensure a better income from CPM ads, be sure to place them in prominent positions on your site.
You might find CPM ads very appealing, but they work best for bloggers who get a high volume of traffic. If you are driving traffic in the area of thousands of visitors per day, then you can get a good amount of money from CPM ads.
Most CPM networks pay $1 to $10 per one thousand impressions (depending upon various factors).
If you are interested in making money through CPM ads, here are the top CPM advertising programs which you can join to make money from your blog.
For a quick glance, these are the listed ad networks:
- PropellerAds
- HillTopAds
- AdBuff (Offering $25 as bonus if your site is approved)
- ClickADu (Do not use this with AdSense)
- Amazon CPM
- Conversant Media
- Exponential

Amazon seems to be coming up with all the possible monetization solutions for publishers.
Recently I talked about Amazon Native Ads, and you likely already know about the popular Amazon Associates program. Well, now you have the option of monetizing your blog using Amazon CPM Ads.
Right now, Amazon CPM Ads are only for selected Amazon affiliates. If you already have an Amazon Associates account, you can log in to your account to see if you have the Amazon CPM option or not.
The first thing you need to do is create your site list.
It can consist of just one site, or if you own multiple sites, you can list them too.
They also support a “passback” feature, which means if the ads don’t match your minimum CPM guarantee, your fall back ads will display.
Currently supported sizes are: 728×90, 160×600, 300×250, and 300×600.
Here you can read all the FAQ’s related to Amazon CPM Ads.
