    Understanding Network CPM Rates

    One of the most common Internet advertising models is CPM, or cost per mille, which pays the advertiser a flat rate every 1,000 times an advertisement is displayed on their website. The price of the CPM is reflective of the quality of impressions an advertiser is receiving. So, for example, if an ad is being displayed many times but results in few sales, an advertiser will pay a lower CPM to account for the low-quality traffic.

    How to Increase Website CPM Rates?

    Give your ads a key position. Successful advertising depends mainly upon the location of the ad. The most valuable real estate on a website is the area referred to as “above the fold,” meaning the part of a page a user can see without scrolling down. Placing ads in this area will increase the probability that they will be clicked on, thereby increasing the value of the ad displays you are serving.

    Display Ad CPM Rates in South Africa

    Display advertising is a method of attracting the audience of a website, social media platform, or other digital mediums to take a specific action. These are often made up of text-based, image, or video advertisements that encourage users to click through to a landing page and take action (e.g., make a purchase). The CPM rates vary depending on the site’s niche and how well the traffic converts for the advertisers. For general purpose sites like news, entertainment, etc., the US display CPM is around USD 0.5 to USD 1. For specific niche sites, it goes higher due to the increased competition. However, it is comparatively lesser than AdSense.

    Video Ads CPM Rates in South Africa

    The video ad industry has exploded in recent years. More publishers have started incorporating video content into their sites, and advertisers have embraced this medium as an effective way to promote their products and services. This growth is expected to continue for the foreseeable future, with many advertisers shifting budgets towards video. As a result, the video CPM rates for US traffic vary from USD 3 to USD 7 for general and entertainment sites.

    The most lucrative approach to maximizing revenue is selling ads directly to advertisers and hosting the video within your site. This approach requires developing relationships with advertisers and agencies, which can be a very time-consuming process. But it allows publishers to keep 100% of the revenue generated.
