Looking for good sponsors i can put up on my site. A sponsor that pays well for impressions (displays/views).

But i also need one of those sponsors that pay quite alot for every form that is filled out. I herd some of these actually pay $5 and such.

Are you looking to attract sponsors from the forum, or asking where one could go and get sponsors (errrr.. somewhat) ?

Well i didn't even know they had sponsors on this site. Thought it was just WebHosting.

But I need sponsors badly. So if you know any places i could go to get a sponsor from or anything at all that could be of help, please let me know.

Errrr... well... yep mostly web hosts and people who are looking for hosting, etc. Not sure if they are your ideal target, nor what your market is even???

I could try moving this to the ad forum, though if no one contacted you, I'm not sure there was much interest, or maybe they just don't know what you offer, what your site is about, what type of sponsor you are looking for, what area(s)?

Wordplay,

Have you tried any of the affiliate programs? They all have a ton of people to fill your advertising space with. I suggest cj.com, they are the most well known in the industry.

Aloha

well Mathew had a good link to help out CJ.com

but first what are you doing on the web ? selling, teaching, ???
waht is your stie and go after that part of biz
and know what your demographic is
if you have a site about playstation games then I would try to find someone that can benefit from that maybe an online PS seller ???
that is where the money comes into play targeted ya have to go after people that can benefit
like Chicken said ;)

Thanks alot for the help.

I didn't quite get what cj.com was about it seemed like the site is only for sponsors not for people looking for sponsors, i looked at the sponsors they have though (about 7 of the ~25 displayed on that affiliates page, and mailed 4 of them to get more detail on their payments)

I also e-mailed fastclick. Thanks alot that seems like a really great site.

My site is Hip Hop based. But concidering that most people on my site are around ages 13 too 21 i think anything with video games / consoles / softwares / hip hop / record labels / / making money over the internet offers / movies etc would be pretty great.

I recieved a total of 957,511 page views this month already (and it's only the 23rd today). Concidering i haven't begun doing any commercial yet i think that's pretty good.

Anything else?

Wordplay,

You get only one check from ALL your CJ's sponsors. So, if you have 100 sponsors and earned $20 from each, rather than having 100 $20 checks, you would get a $2000 check from CJ.com.

You might also want to check out Burst (no, not BurstNET(tm), BurstMedia) at http://www.burstmedia.com

SIC also have a few good programs well liked by webmasters, check 'em out at http://www.standardinternet.com/affiliate.html

Good Luck!

Well i'm kind'o having some major site difficulties here, hehe.

First FutureQuest (my server provider) told me they wouldn't be able to host me anymore because my UBB alone generated 44GB of bandwith transfer, so they want to cut me loose, then my server got really really slow. So right now i'm in the middle of transfering to a new server.

So i got to wait with all the sponsors, since they always want to check your site etc, i wouldn't want them to check my site when it's kind of down you know.

Thanks though, I'll check them all out the second i get my site back up.
