Buying and selling ads without the middleman

When selling link and text ads on your site you have 2 options sell ads privately or use an agency such as linkworth, textlink ads or PPP. Their are benefits too both ways of selling advertising space on your website.

Benefits of using a middleman

Using an agency or middleman means you don't have the hassles of trying to find advertisers, telling them about your site, negotiating the price and then looking after them when they keep emailing you to say their links aren't there and THEY ARE THERE.

Ad Agencies

Selling ads using a middle man means you might have to sell them slightly cheaper, all publishers sell ads at a slightly lower price to agencies even large newspapers and TV Channels they don't have the costs involved with trying to find ad buyers. Rupert Murdoch would sell you an ad cheaper if you were an agency.

The ad organisation I like most at the moment is

vcmedia Online Advertising Network
They pay very nicely for cpm ads and a bit more if someone clicks through.

Selling ads privately

Selling ads privately to successfully sell ads privately you need to list the features & benefits your site can offer, think about what your potential advertisers are going to be looking for and the tailor your offering for them. Look on sites like adbrite see what stats they list about your site and then list the same. By the way my alexa ranking has improved to 246,818:)

A new way to sell ads

A site that lets you sell ads and keep all the cash is called OIO Publisher it is a new site which plans to cut out the middle man, benefits to the publisher are higher revenue and because theres no middle man and little cost involved in finding advertisers it should mean cheaper advertising for advertisers:) Everyones a winner.
