can't believe some of you clowns are getting on nickey for posting info about myspace ads...wtf gimme a break, anyways i'm gunna try signing up with fake addy today to see if i can get started on this
 
Getting anything higher than $.25 epc is going to be tough with something like banners on myspace, props to those who figure it out. Are there any lame budget limits like FB?
 
Thanks for the tip. Little birds have a tendency to give good advice ;)

I will try signing up with my cc and a fake address this evening and report back.

Yeah... Cakes ruined it for everyone by exposing this top secret goldmine that no one would have heard of. Now thanks to him - nobody will be making any monies. Or not.

If you want to test non-mobile offers then try setting up on Right Media Exchange instead. It's cheaper and you can use flash banners and set CPA targets and even do CPC buys if needed -- no demo targeting though but with a $0.15 CPM bid you should see some volume.

If you are going to use the CPC self-serve then don't waste your time testing every niche, open up all the popular pages on MySpace and grab the iframe code for all the banner sizes -- the placementID indicates where on the site the banner loads and you'll want to throw in all the popular 728 and 300 sections (Can't view this profile page, browse page, news, music, videos, logged-in homepage -- skip the profile pages it's mostly AdSense defaults when viewed in the iFrame). MySpace is a huge CPA network for advertisers and you'll see based on both the order and frequency how each offer is doing -- you'll see all the usual suspects there and you'll see some banners 20+ refreshes in that you know not even to bother with unless you are banking on the demo target. If you want to really test out the demo targeting create an excel sheet with a list of all the offers for only the homepage placementID (when you are logged in). Again, open up the iFrame in a tab and create 1-2 dozen MySpace accounts with different demo targets (female from kentucky age 16, male age 22 NYC, etc) and clear cookies and cache and go through 20+ refreshes in each and log all of this in Excel. You'll get some good trending data out of this and it works well to find the offers you should be promoting and the type of banners you'll need for each demographic. Don't try to do a regression on the data since all the performance ads default without demographic targeting, your goal is to see where the order of offers changes and when you see a new offer that does not appear outside of other demographics.

Pretty good info. I've tried RMX as a publisher and hated it, but I'll definitely give it a try as an advertiser. .15 CPM isn't too bad. :rasta: Only around 12 clicks for me so far from Myspace, and no conversions.

Still, your just creating unnecessary competition, which makes no sense...... It's almost like your giving part of a business plan away for free...

And who says I'm not smart and dedicated? I think I might be a bit smarter than you when I know when to keep something on the DL. All you've done is created more competition and probably increased the bids across the board by encouraging others to join.

Negative rep given. You are a leach. And a leach that can't figure out why sharing a bit of info on a new advertising platform that is WIDE OPEN will not hurt the person sharing at all. I bet Nicky knows 5 times more than you do right now about the platform already because he's testing AS WELL as networking & sharing info with other smart people who are testing the platform at the same time and learning from each other... Idiot.
 
and no macs

I'm on a mac, and the self-serve ad system works fine.

In any case, I'm at a .08 CTR so far on one ad, 2500 impressions, 0 conversions. I'll keep it updated.

Works pretty well but you need to get everything approved still and they are pretty harsh on certain niches through the exchange (mobile for example). Dating should be fine and there is some bank to be made and you can actually use flash banners and get better CTRs than everyone who will be using GIFs. I've been working with them for over a year now.

Just to note, RME is the exchange, large publishers use it to effectively monetize their inventory better than they can through daisy-chaining networks together. RMX was the advertising side of the business that Yahoo! acquired with Right Media that handled CPM buys to be placed on the exchange -- the exchange is where all the good action happens RMX was just a quick way to make a few bucks before they got acquired without offering everyone a network account.

The url for publishers is direct.rightmedia.com, but what about for advertisers? Or do you buy the advertising through Yahoo?
 
andyt,

You can buy directly from Yahoo!, they should be able to hook you up.

You have two choices, to try to join as a network and have full self-serve capability on the network or you can join as an advertiser and have them do all the leg-work. Advertising networks should opt for the former since they get more flexibility and can 'bid' on the users and geo-target and even have geolocation based banners (ex. Adult Friend Finder) while individuals with smaller spends should let Yahoo! manage the campaigns for you (you'll need to call to make changes).
 
Thanks Cakes!! This is what the forum is for. All you leeches, you could learn from his attitude
