Ad spot for sale

[Servernova]

We would like to sell ad space on our free host. I dont know how what would be ok price. We are thinking to sell 100.000 for 160$. What do you think? Too much? How much would you pay for free host ads.
Thanks and regards.

P.S.
It is my first post here and I would like to say hi to all.

I think it would help to tell us how many uniques and impressions you get.

For free hosts I think you'll find it harder to sell for more than 20 cents CPM.

Hi Archbob and thanks for your reply.
Well for this month that was about ca:

Unique visitors 149586
Number of visits 177975
Pages 521349

Even fastclick ads average only 40 cents CPM or so trying to sell banner ads at $1.60 CPM on a free host is going to be hard. Free host traffic is untargetted traffic since you can't control what your client sites are about.

I'm not sure, but everyone.net I think still has a plug-in ad-sales program, you may want to contact them.

Last time I checked, everyone.net was paying 4 cents CPM...

Also takes 90 days to get paid by them.

[Archbob]

well, screw that idea then.

Hello,

CPM = What again?
I'm interested. I would want exclusive advertising. Meaning I would be the only advertiser. Rates wont be that high because as said its a free host.

Cost per thousand.

Me and others often sell 1 million to 5 million impressions for $5 to $10...

Hey venomax, what type of traffic do you get?

[venomx]

I run 3 paid to read email sites.... thats why the price is so cheap...

The traffic really depends how many emails I send a day and stuff... Basicly ads for other paid to stuff and some affiliate program ads do real well....
