Congratulations and a big thank you to Coinabul for becoming my first sponsor!
If you'd like to sponsor an ad and don't want to go through Operation Fabulous, there is now a handy form on my site.

Not sure what my average is... maybe 0.1? I'll say that most of the time, it is sitting at the 0.6 BTC rate, but those peaks from the bidding wars are very nice! I only have one banner ad from op-fab, so it's per slot.

Your site does appear, and mine does too (to me). You should definitely be able to see your own site.

Huh, it shows in the old interface but after paging through the new interface I don't see it anywhere. Weird... Maybe it just takes a while for op fab to finalize my listing or something - I am a member of that incredibly impatient generation that grew up with the internet (though, to be fair, I started with 9600 baud dialup, so I'm not as spoiled as most), so perhaps I'm the problem here.
0.6 per day for ~1500 hits is about 0.4 BTC CPM which at current rates is ~$4.77 CPM - a damn good rate, very nice!
Ah, that makes more sense then. Still a good CPM though, yes.

The op-fab ad on my gaming community website (with around 1,500 daily pageviews) pays about $0.70/day at the bottom rate, vs maybe $0.10/day for the USD equivalent on the same site. At peak, the op-fab ad has generated $12/day, and I had a 3-week run with > $5/day too. So, keep it up for a while, it'll start generating some nice revenue soon. Especially since it's a BTC-oriented website, much more of a related target audience than my gaming community website!
Those are some pretty decent stats, is that per slot or total? If you don't mind my asking, what's your average if $0.7 is your bottom and $12 is your peak?
I'm ok to stick it out as long as someone confirms I'm on the listings - maybe I just can't see my own sites? I'm very happy to accept BTC anywhere and everywhere I can, so ad-revenue should be a no-brainer, as long as it actually works

Your minimum bid is too high for me, sorry. Not that it's not worth it, but that I don't have the coin to spend on it. If I were you, I'd drop it down to 0.01, then let the market figure out the right price.
Fair enough, I'm lowering the bid now. Better to have something there than the default op fab ads. I wish I could say I had faith in the market finding the price, but since I'm apparently not in op fab's listings, I don't know how the market is expected to find me
I'll say this much: The op-fab ad on my gaming community website (with around 1,500 daily pageviews) pays about $0.70/day at the bottom rate, vs maybe $0.10/day for the USD equivalent on the same site.

EDIT: My attempt at creating an advertisement worthy of being shown using paint utterly failed. I'll have to wait until I get home to put an ad up.

Odd... I'll get something up on op fab soon, I just assumed someone would jump in there quickly, so didn't bother to put an ad up myself..!
I need to make a new one the proper size though.

Yeah, it's kind of strange. I noticed that on their listings my site doesn't seem to appear at all, so I'm guessing that's why no one is bidding. I PM'd edd about it, but it's been an... odd... experience with op fab so far. I really hope my case is one of those strange unique things that only ever happen to me
In any case, thanks, you're awesome!

I'd really hate to go to an ad network that isn't Bitcoin-related.

Seriously, no interest? CoinURL has delivered 2,000 impressions in the last 24 hours and there's no brand that wants building getting in on it on the OF side of the fence?
Maybe I've just got to wait for OF to populate stats for my site - speaking of which, holy crap it takes a long time for OF to generate site stats...

I think you should keep both banners. Exclusive advertising (like OF) can bring you more earnings if you are lucky enough to find advertisers, but network-based advertising guarantees that you will always have ads in the slots.
Probably a fair plan. We'll see how both networks do
Do you offer 125x125 ad boxes?
Yes, we do.I've replaced two of the OF ad boxes with coinurl boxes as a test, we'll see who wins

Try placing CoinURL banners. We always have ads to show in your slots.
Do you offer 125x125 ad boxes? Because I don't want to put a big horizontal banner above my content.

I'm also open to partnership deals - ad space purchased by the week or month which will appear above the OF ads. Also, since I can control the HTML, filenames and path for those ads there's a much smaller chance they'll get caught by ad blocking extensions - I can react to ad blocking much faster than OF since I only have to worry about your ads and not every ad currently live on every site.
Since I have the opportunity to negotiate with advertisers directly on these I'd like to have partners that I actually believe in, products and services that I use, etc. If you're interested in such a deal, send me a PM.
