Full reviews of the top Bitcoin advertising networks.

I have personally used every network listed here, if you have any questions ask in the comments below.

BitMedia.io

Payment Frequency - On Request
Minimum Payout - 0.01 BTC
Commission Type: CPC, CPM

Bitmedia is a PPC (pay per click) and CPM (cost per thousand impressions) network. Bitmedia has fairly strict requirements for becoming a publisher and they review every site carefully before accepting it in their advertising network.

Bitmedia claims to take a 20 30% cut from publisher earnings, which is on par with many other ad networks in the industry.

Bitmedia does accept sites in any genre, however they definitely prefer to work with cryptocurrency and Bitcoin related websites.

From the advertiser side, Bitmedia offers geo targeting, device targeting, day parting, frequency capping and ad retargeting. The offer both image and text ads.

Overall Bitmedia is one of the higher quality Bitcoin advertising networks and has a solid reputation in the industry. Strict approval guidelines keep the shadier sites out and improve the experience for advertisers and increase earnings for publishers.

The top CPC (cost per click) for Bitmedia is currently around $1.50. Which means publishers would earn about $1.00 per click for the top bids. However, you can expect to earn closer to $0.15 to $0.60 per click on average.

MellowAds.com

Payment Frequency - Daily
Minimum Payout - 0.0001 BTC
Commission Type: CPC, CPM, PPV, Pay Per Day

Mellow ads is one of the most well known advertising networks in the Bitcoin space. They are very transparent and provide full stats of their advertising network. Mellow ads currently offers PPC, CPM, Popunder & link shortening for publishers and advertisers.

Mellow ads is currently only accepting new sites with an Alexa Rank of less than 200,000 that are over 3 months old. This previously used to to be 1 million, so one could assume they are trying to increase the quality of their network.

CPM campaigns run from 0.0002 to BTC to 0.0005 BTC while CPC campaigns average 0.00002 per click. That currently works out to roughly $2.50 for CPM campaigns and $0.10 per click. Mellow ads only takes a 10% cut from publishers so you can expect to earn close those amounts. Of course actual earnings will depend on traffic quality and the daily network pool (how many advertisers and funds their are).

Popunder campaigns on Mellow Ads are in the 0.0008 BTC to 0.001 BTC range - currently about $4.00 per 1000 popunders.

Mellow ads also offers a link shortening service for Publishers, similar to Adf.ly.
Shorten your links and send traffic to them for extra earnings. You will earn based on the % of the traffic you send for the day, and will be rewarded with your share of the network pool.

Additionally, for advertisers, Mellow ads offers a free Bitcoin faucet that pays out from 1,000 to 10,000 Satoshis every day. The faucet earnings can only be used to pay for campaigns on Mellow ads however.

A-Ads (Anonymous Ads) - A-Ads.com

Payment Frequency - Automatic When Threshold Reached
Minimum Payout - 0.0001 BTC
Commission Type: CPC, CPM, PPV

Anonymous Ads is an interesting network. You do not need to create an account to advertiser or to become a publisher (though you can if you want). Instead, you simply use your Bitcoin address to manage your account.

Anonymous ads offers both image and text ads and works on a CPM and CPC basis. They offer full transparency and stats for the network and you can track your own ad units stats in real time as well.

Earnings seem to fluctuate wildly on Anonymous Ads, based on the number of advertisers currently running campaigns. You can expect to earn pretty low CPM's and CPC's. I've seen EPC's as low as 50 Satoshi, though they usually seem to be closer to 200 Satoshi (less than 1 cent still).

That said, they are definitely worth trying out - the ad units are simple to create and it only takes a few minutes to test them out on your website.

If you're an advertiser you can select targeting options based on site quality and choose which categories or specific websites you would like to advertise on.

RunCPA.com

Payment Frequency - On Request or Hourly, Daily, Weekly
Minimum Payout - No Minimum
Commission Type: CPA, CPL, Revenue Share

RunCPA is a CPA (cost per action) only network. Publishers only earn when their traffic converts and advertisers only pay when they get a conversion.

If you have high quality traffic you can do very well with RunCPA. However, if you have a high volume of low quality traffic you probably will not get very many conversions and are better off sticking with CPM and CPC campaigns.

Offer payouts range from $0.10 to $10 per lead and there's a wide variety of offers to choose from. They also offer ongoing revenue share (affiliate programs) which can add up over time if you're driving a lot of leads.

CoinZilla.io

Payment Frequency - On Request
Minimum Payout - 0.01
Commission Type: CPM, CPC, Pop Unders

Coinzilla is one of the highest quality Bitcoin advertising networks. They have fairly strict acceptance guidelines and only accept websites with an Alexa rank of under 1 million. Websites also have to be over 3 months old and use a unique design (no cookie cutter websites). They offer a 0.01 BTC bonus for all new publishers upon account approval.

Coinzilla is primarily a CPC and CPM network but they also offer popunder traffic. They focus mostly on Bitcoin related websites but do accept websites in other categories as well.

Overall, Coinzilla is a solid network with higher then average payouts and higher quality traffic than most networks. You will see Coinzilla ads on a majority of the most popular Bitcoin websites as well as most of the highest traffic Bitcoin faucets.

If you can get accepted as a publisher they are definitely worth trying out.725_Ly9jb2ludGVsZWdyYXBoLmNvbS9zdG9yYWdlL3VwbG9hZHMvdmlldy85NzAyNWI4ODI4OWU2OTYyM2ViOTU0NGUwNTNmYTA5Ni5qcGc=.jpg
