Which beginner ad monetization network should I use?

Hi there,

I need to find an ad monetization network for one of my websites (to earn money from showing ads to visitors).

Unfortunately, it does not yet qualify for Mediavine or AdThrive (in regards to required page views).

So which beginner network would you use and why? Please share your experience (i.e. RPMs if you did a comparison).

Thanks,

    I've heard some pretty bad feedback about Ezoic. Ads are slow, slowing pages down, messing up formatting, etc.

    They've been pitching me for a while, and shared a couple of case-studies. I checked out one of the case-study sites and it was hideous. Maybe their ads generated more revenue for the site owner, but the site seemed so shady that it completely discredited Ezoic for me.

    I suspect they work well for some, but I wouldn't consider them based on the above.

    Here's a few others you could take a look at.

      Thanks, Mike. Wasn't aware of the ones you mentioned, but will review them. Same feeling about Ezoic somehow!
