Internet marketers are constantly on the lookout for new paid traffic sources. While many have tried their hands at PPC advertising, few have unconvered the world of contextual advertising. It is also known as pay per view (PPV) or cost-per-view (CPV) advertising.
Internet marketers are constantly on the lookout for new paid sources of traffic. Many have tried pay per click marketing, but not many have played with contextual advertising. You may also see contextual advertising referred to as pay-per-view (PPV) or cost-per-view (CPV) advertising. With contextual advertising, you pay to have a popup shown on a person's computer that has installed adware on it. Many networks will use adware to support the cost of giving away free games, toolbars, screensavers and wallpapers. An example is Vomba which offers free wallpapers and screensavers that are bundled with its adware software. Adware often has a negative meaning, but most companies currently follow strict rules with regards to installing and uninstalling their adware software. When using PPV, you will be bidding on different urls and keywords. This will spawn a popup with your advertisement on the user's system whenever they enter in that keyword or visit that url. You don't necessarily need to develop your own landing page either, as direct linking can work equally well. Just remember that you are limited by the size of the popup. On MediaTraffic for example, the popup dimensions will be 750 x 550 pixels. Therefor, make sure that your ad is optimized around these size constraints. The cost per popup will vary depending on your bid. Usually the minimum bids on most CPV networks can get as low as $0.01, but if you are bidding on competitive keywords/urls the costs can get higher than $0.50 a view. Just remember you are getting charged per view. Regardless of whether the visitor ignores your popup or immediately closes it, you still need to pay. Contextual advertising is attractive because of the low minimum bids, and fewer rules compared with the PPC networks. It still is a difficult platform for those who don't know what they are doing. If you aren't careful, CPV traffic can blow through your budget very fast. Still, when you discover the right offer you have the potential to make a huge ROI from it. CPV is a potentially profitable form of traffic that you need to be aware of. Not everyone will be successful with it, but there are many who are finding it quite profitable. Give PPV advertising a try, and see if you can't start making some money with it. More information: Many CPV marketers are now joining Affportal to try out the best CPV Tools available.
