A discussion of earning with the Best Affiliate Programs, SEO, Wordpress Blogging and General Motivational Ideas for Internet Publishers and Affiliate Marketers.

Every now and then a new affiliate program comes along that I’m just totally excited about. My most recent discovery and favorite new affiliate program is ADSDAQ (by ContextWeb). The program offers a CPM model which refers to advertising bought on the basis of impression. This is in contrast to the various types of pay-for-performance advertising, whereby payment is only triggered by a mutually agreed upon activity (i.e. click-through, registration, sale). Publishers set their own CPM rate and ADSDAQ matches advertiser to sites based on the publisher set rate. Any unfilled impressions will be automatically redirected to any other network you have set-up in your Selling Desk which means if ADSDQ doesn’t have a banner to match your site a the moment, they will display and Google Adsense, Adbrite or other networks code on your site.

Here are some common questions that are answered in the ADSDAQ Faq.

How can ADSDAQ let me set my own AskPrice™? ADSDAQ pays 100% of the Publisher’s AskPrice CPM for all filled impressions and redirects impressions that aren’t sold for their ADSDAQ AskPrice to another paying Backup Tag source specified by each publisher. What kind of ads are served by ADSDAQ? ADSDAQ serves primarily graphical ads. Sometimes ADSDAQ will also serve rich media and expandable ads. There are no text ads served by ADSDAQ currently, but we expect text ads to be served starting in Q1 2008. Can I work with ADSDAQ and Google AdSense? Yes, our AskPrice technology relies on you working with Ad Networks to make money most effectively. The Google AdSense terms and conditions do not have any exclusivity terms that prevent you from using ADSDAQ either; they simply say “Although you may sell ads directly on your site, it is your responsibility to ensure these ads cannot be confused with Google ads.” Since all Google ads have the label “Ads by Google”, and ADSDAQ ads obviously don’t have this label; we don’t conflict with the AdSense Competitive Ads and Services provisions. See the “Competitive Ads and Services” section of the May 2007 updated AdSense Program policies for this specific section: Can I work with ADSDAQ and a display advertising network like Tribal Fusion or Burst? Yes, our AskPrice technology relies on you working with Ad Networks to make money most effectively. You should use a network like Tribal Fusion or Burst as the destination of your ADSDAQ Backup Tag.

The minimum payout is $50 on net 30 basis so it shouldn’t take most established sites to reach a payout. Payouts are made through ETF direct Deposit or by check. I’ve been doing quite well with ADSDAQ and I’ll keep integrating their ads on mysites more over time. If you have noticed the new banners at the top of this blog, those are being served by ADSDAQ with my alternative network set to Google Adsense.

At the moment ADSDAQ does not have a referral program, however I did ask the question on their support forum and one of the admins responded that they are currently working on implementing one soon.

2. Goodbye AdBrite and Goodbye ADSDAQ (Malware, Spyware) Affiliates Use Caution on March 21st, 2008

   […] Considering the fact I serve dynamic ads through several providers, I had to take each one into account and analyze them one by one. Start at the top… The 728×90 banner at the top of this blog was served by a combination of providers. The main fill source is ADSDAQ (by ContextWeb) which is a CPM network and if my available banner space is unable to be filled by ADSDAQ, my backup ad provider was Google Adsense. I had believed ADSDAQ to be a very reputable source for my primary source and I’d even wrote a favorable article about them. […]
