Earning online isn’t easy, especially if you’re like me and you’re in the business of adult entertainment. In order to lure as many users to your site and find the perfect ads on your website, you’ll need a good ad network. Although I’ve visited a plethora of them since I began working in the industry, ExoClick is one of those networks that just keeps improving and popping up on lists as the best ad network on the internet. Even though I’ve used it in the past, it’s been quite a while since I used it, as I’ve been constantly switching things up in search of the best network for them all. After years of trying to find a better option, I believe it’s time to return to this gem and see whether it managed to stay great.
To start things off, I feel like it’s important to give ExoClick credit for simply being in this business since 2006, which is no easy task. Ad networks come and go, and I’ve seen countless of them get advertised as the next big thing, only to fall short and cease to exist within a few years. Another reason why I’m giving ExoClick a chance is the fact that its focus is on adult entertainment, which is exactly what I need. As I was looking into the website again, I was surprised at how popular it still was, and after hearing so many publishers and advertisers rave about its tools, I rushed inside to make my new account.
I know how annoying registering on a new site can be, especially nowadays when you’re required to put in more information than you’d need to get your ID. Even though I’m not a huge fan of lengthy registration processes, I can understand, in some cases, why they’re necessary. Creating an account on ExoClick might take a bit since you’re required to set up your profile and make a good enough password, but the entire process still only takes a couple of minutes. All you have to do is fill out the forms, choose whether you’re looking to sell traffic or buy it, and verify your email address with the press of a button.
Once you’ve finished verifying your profile, the chances of having your account information stolen are slim to none. Considering the fact that your password must be intricate to register and that the site tracks any unusual activity to keep you secure at all times, having your account hacked is the least of your worries. Now I know what you’re thinking: if ExoClick keeps you secure when there’s unusual activity, does that mean you’ll have to keep verifying your identity whenever you log in? Thankfully, the answer is no because it’d be so damn difficult to work while traveling if you had to constantly authenticate every log-in.
Back when I was a newbie, the thought of entering a site and having to navigate through complicated layouts to use tools I’ve never had the chance to use was genuinely frightening. Luckily, ExoClick used to have a very beginner-friendly design, and to my surprise, they managed to improve it over the years. Once you look at your dashboard, you’ll be able to clearly see all of the tools and stats you can use to see how your ads have been operating so far. Depending on whether you’ve chosen to be a publisher or advertiser, your dashboard will look different, but both are easy to use whether you’re a veteran or this is your first time on an ad network.
While on the topic of beginners, no matter how easy everything is to use it’s still not uncommon for people to be confused. This is a common occurrence that I went through even when I was just starting out, so there’s no need to beat yourself up for not knowing all the ins and outs just yet. ExoClick takes great care of its publishers and advertisers, which is why there are plenty of tutorial videos to watch to help you every step of the way to becoming successful. There’s even a blog where experts give various tips, from maximizing your ad zone optimization to guides for publishers on how to make multi-format ads to match your adult content. I didn’t think I’d find much use of this section since I’ve been in this space for a while, but surprisingly enough, I came across a ton of useful information, so make sure to try it out.
Aside from giving detailed statistics on your ad zones in real-time and providing a wide variety of web and mobile formats to monetize your inventory, ExoClick also has 24/7 customer service to aid you on your journey. If you’re a publisher, you’ll be glad to know that this ad network has global coverage, and you can also get prompt payments on a weekly or monthly basis. Running your campaigns is incredibly easy, and by using the various tools that ExoClick offers, you’ll get to see precisely which campaign is running great, which one isn’t, and where the problem lies. These tools might not seem like a big deal, but you’d be surprised at how many ad networks don’t offer this much transparency for your campaigns.
Before you start earning money, it’s important to know at least the basics of the three models: CPC, CPM, and Smart CPM. CPC stands for Cost per Click, so each time a user presses on your ad, you’ll earn cash. CPM stands for Cost per Mile (1k impressions), and the one I used a lot of the time as it’s the easiest is the Smart CPM, which is a system that’ll choose the maximum CPM bid model for you. Depending on which tier of your countries, you’ll have vastly different earnings; for instance, tier 1 countries such as the USA and UK will earn you roughly $2 per 1k impressions, whereas lower tier countries earn much less. This might seem a bit confusing, but thankfully, you’ll have all of the statistics laid out for you to learn from.
Even though ExoClick offers a ton of tools to use, earning can still be quite difficult, so make sure to place ads accordingly and pick the right ones for your porn category and the correct size. If you do end up making a living, you’ll be glad to know that ExoClick provides payments through Paxum, Paypal, Payoneer, WebMoney, cryptocurrencies, and wire transfers. I prefer, and I’d suggest, using the first three options since the minimum payout you can get from those is $20, whereas WebMoney is $200 and the last two are $500.
After returning to ExoClick, I can safely say that it hasn’t just maintained its quality and great relations with members, but it’s improved by a mile. I’d definitely suggest using the ad network if you’re a beginner, but even if you’re a veteran, you can still earn a ton with ExoClick, especially within the blog section. Head inside and find out for yourself just how simple advertising can be with the help of ExoClick and its wide array of free tools.
