Premium full-service ad-management network for content creators and bloggers.
After years of mediocre networks this felt like a different league. The reporting is fully transparent down to the ad unit, the ads load without wrecking my speed scores, and any time I email I get a thoughtful human reply. My monthly revenue is consistently the best in my blogging history. Couldn't be happier.
Transparent reporting, low speed impact, genuine human support
For established sites this network is brilliant, the RPMs and payment reliability are top notch and the optimisation is genuinely smart. My issue is more about access, the 50k session minimum locks out smaller creators who could really use the revenue, and I sat just under it for almost a year. Once in I'm happy, but the gatekeeping is real and worth knowing about.
Revenue has been excellent since I joined and the reporting breaks everything down by ad unit and device which I love for analysis. The team genuinely cares about creators and the Facebook community is full of useful tips. My one complaint is the approval and setup took longer than I expected, almost three weeks before ads were live.
Adding their video player to my recipe posts was the single biggest revenue change I've ever made. It auto-generates clips and the in-content video CPMs are excellent. Combined with the display ads my overall RPM is the highest it's ever been. Payments arrive like clockwork and I never have to think about ad ops again.
I run a travel blog and seasonal CPMs through this network have been the best I've ever seen, especially in Q4. The optimisation is fully automated so I can focus on writing instead of fiddling with placements. Got paid right on schedule every single month with zero chasing. Could not recommend more for serious bloggers.
The full-service side is what sold me. I don't touch ad code at all, they handle the optimisation and I just watch the reports. My RPM has been steady around $32 and the script is lightweight enough that my Core Web Vitals stayed in the green. Support answered my CLS question within a day with an actual screenshot walkthrough.
Everything about this feels professional. Ad quality is high, nothing spammy or malware-ish ever slipped through, and the layout looks tasteful on my home decor site. My RPM sits comfortably above $30 and the support team treats you like a partner, not a ticket number. Worth crossing the traffic threshold for.
I was barely covering hosting costs before. Within two months on this network my food and DIY site was earning enough that I went part-time at my day job. The script is fast, payments are punctual, and the community resources taught me more about content strategy than any course. Genuinely life-changing for my little blog.

Excellent RPM and payments for qualified sites
High entry threshold shuts out smaller blogs
Switched my parenting blog here last year and the earnings bump was immediate and substantial. The video monetization in particular pulls in revenue I never had access to before. My only minor frustration is that some of the dashboard metrics take a second to understand, the difference between visits RPM and session RPM tripped me up at first.
Big earnings increase, strong video revenue
Dashboard metrics have a small learning curve
Detailed reporting, supportive community, solid earnings
Onboarding and setup took longer than expected
Outstanding video monetization, hands-off, punctual payments
Top-tier RPMs, automated optimisation, dependable payments
Hands-off setup, excellent RPM, fast knowledgeable support
Honestly torn on this one. The payouts are clearly better than what I had before and NET-65 means I always get paid on time. But the default ad layout felt heavy on mobile and a couple of readers emailed me about it, so I spent a weekend tuning settings in the dashboard. If you don't optimise it yourself the user experience suffers.
Reliable payments, higher revenue
Default ad density felt aggressive until I adjusted it
Clean ad quality, high RPM, partner-level support
Massive revenue lift, fast script, great educational resources
