Ask HN: Worthwhile ad networks?

7 points by foxpc 12y ago

Hey HN! Our website was recently blocked from an ad network for because "all" of our clicks were fraudulent. While we do know that we did not do anything of such sort, we doubt that any resolution will be found to this problem. We just hope to land on a more decent ad network than we did. What ad networks are used by fellow hackers? We assume that AdSense is usually the best option but it does not look like they want to give us a chance and rejected our application. Thank you for your inputs :)

Hi foxpc- that is a hard question to answer without knowing more specifics. Here are some of the questions that I can use to point you in the right direction. - What kind of site(s) do you have traffic for? - Are they in a specific niche, or is the traffic more general? - Which ad units do you support? - What is your estimated volume (impressions/month)? - What is your geo breakdown? Feel free to reach out to me directly if you don't want to share this info publicly. I would love to help!

Have you looked into AppNexus?

  Hey, well, I've looked at it. But I can't seem to find any clues how to send an application/register on the site.

What are you working on? I run a digital agency, and I'd be more than happy to help if I can.

  Hi, you can find the website in my submission history. Sorry, I don't want to let google have too much fun caching the link on their search.

    I would look at AppNexus as a possible alternative.

I've always thought http://solvemedia.com/ http://solvemedia.com/ looked nice. It's captcha via advertising. E.g., "Please type 'Just Do It'" Not sure if it's applicable to your use case though.
