How can I get into Fastclick?

[coolrom]

I have tried to apply as a Fastclick publisher but they always denied me. Everytime I apply, I need to use a different url to redirect to my site and I did this 6 times! Can anyone tell me about their experience with Fastclick and recommend some other company that is just as good?

[mewgood]

they denied my website too
I dont think they like game sites.

Sorry coolrom, you will find your prospects of a reputable advertising network accepting an emulation site severely limited. I am surprised FocusIn accepted you :eek:

[Kaliber]

uhh, all of those popups are annoying! Get rid of them.

[KevinUK]

Fastclick denied me too, they said no game sites :(

[Force]

fastclick denied me too!:(

it seems focusin is accepting everyone these days. even im using focusin, but im just finding out they suk. im getting a dollar a day with like 10000 impressions per day!! i just applied to burstmedia and i hope they accept me!

[nitroboy]

fastclick denied my site too :(
and burst also did denied my site...

[cheatpark]

Seems like fastclick is not for me. I think doubleclick.net accepts most types of sites but they are hard to get into. :(

[Archbob]

Fastclick accepted my site, but its a freebie site, they don't like gaming sites.

[findws]

Archbob, how many page views do you get per month?

[Jan]

You need at least 2,500 pageviews a month before they will consider you.

Also check this page (https://www.fastclick.com/pub/site_spec.html) for a brief rundown on the types of sites they will accept.

[mewgood]

:(
they denid my website too cuz it was a game site
:(

Oddly enough, FastClick denied my webmaster resource site (averaging 60,000 pageviews a month)..

It also denied my gaming site, however I've been accepted into Advertising.com and DoubleClick, instead..:)

[coolrom]

Sky, what is the url of your site?

[sky]

http://www.gamingincite.com . Currently, We're just fixing up our servers after our server change..

I would be surprised if focusin refuses anyone. I heard that they have no cpm banners at the moment and this tells me that they could be shutting down soon. Also you need to earn $50 before they send the first cheque. I don't think anyone should go with them.

Right now so far this month I've hit 10,000 views. Alot of the time, they run my default ad since their inventory is a bit short.

[coolrom]

Well, my site DOES get the hits (800,000 page views and 17,000 unique visitors per month), but since its an emulation site, I havent been lucky with any ad company. But recently, DoubleClick accepted me into their program and I signed and fax the contract sheets and all that. I am just waiting for the html tags to come.

[Archbob]

Actually according to webalizer installed on my server, I got just over 22k pageviews and 11k uniques this month. I've made about $11 off fastclick. They don't accept gaming sites cause they have very few gaming ads and it converts to bad performance.

[cheatpark]

I think webalizer has calculated wrongly. How could you get 11k visitors and they only look at 2 pages in one month. That confuses me.

your presuming every person actually went to another page after loading the site :biggrin2: :eek: :)


look at the stats for scripthive.com .. even though i don't use it anymore

http://www.scripthive.com/webstat/

[Archbob]

I have free offers on my main page and alot of people click on an ad when they come to the site so page views per visitor is not that great. I suspect webalizer is a bit off though. I don't get many return visitors either.

They're not as bad, as some people think though. They currently are giving about .24 cpm for banners.. Not bad, plus they now pay.

[cheatpark]

Thats if there are cpm banners to show. Not all are cpm. Some are cpc and some are pop ups. If nobody clicks them then you don't get money.

[Archbob]

Fastclick is about the same. ABout half are CPC, I currently get 27-35 CPM . But I get a pretty decent CTR.

[sky]

I don't currently use focusin, but from looking in my account i can see that currently they have CPM banners ranging 0.07-0.24.. and they have cpc from 0.06 - 0.16, with popups ranging from .20-.80 cpm.

I can't find the sing up page for www.doubleclick.net

can anyome help me out?

Ive been with focusin now for about 5 months and every month so far my earnings have increased. Right now I'm making approximately $1500 a month from them on my site www.originalicons.com most of the revenue comes from their popups delivered from their banner. I also like that they allow you to choose a third party advertisement to appear in the banner window when they do not have anything to show. This means I won't lose money to un-used inventory. I use a banner from fineclicks.com for free starbucks chocolate and that earns me and extra $50 a month at least. I've been declined by both doubleclick.com and fastclick.com . I don't think they like entertainment sites at all.

Fastclick didn't object to mine :classic2:

Slightly off topic but generally how much does FastClick pay for popunders?

[Kaumil]

FastClick.com is a very hard ad-network to get into. They didn't even accept Snooply.com. I'm guessing their role in keeping out "non-productive" traffic and not accepting certain types of sites is allowing them to stay alive in the game today.

I just saw a fastclick banner on that site

DoubleClick accepted your emulation site?

btw let me warn you have a 47:1 page view to unique ratio ratio, you will end up showing more defaults than ads to doubleclick and could end up in debt!

Re FastClick: I recently got in with my small real estate relocation site. Currently, I'm giving them around 12,000 impressions per month. I guess they liked the type of traffic over volume.

I've got to say, this is one nice network and my sites visitors are clicking on them.

Still, I'm making about 4 times as much daily with with TextLinks.com that I also use on the site.
