AdEngage – A Decent Advertising Network

AdEngage Logo

AdEngage is a popular advertising network (recently acquired by Technorati) providing a platform for publishers to sell advertising via the AdEngage marketplace. Very similar to the way Adtoll functions, AdEngage puts your site’s custom advertising on auto-pilot after placing the AdEngage code on your website. With several thousands of publishers and advertisers, You can be assured that as advertisers you will find good value for your campaign and as publishers you will always have your ad spot busy provided that you give value in terms of CPC/CPM.

For publishers, for a decent 25% commission they simplify your whole process of custom advertising, providing a detailed rate card with plenty of details including estimated CPC, CPM and CTR among other details. Payment is made per month via several methods including PayPal and Check. When ad spots are not booked by an advertiser, the ad space is occupied by ‘Run of Network’ pay per click ads which offer low CPC’s usually in the range of less than 10 cents.

Advertisers get complete transparency letting advertisers know beforehand how much ROI to expect. For an extremely cheap estimated cost per click of a minimum of 1 cent with an array of websites from all niches to choose from AdEngage is a recommended place to make the most out of a tight budget. Advertisers are offered plenty of versatility in terms of thousands of websites to choose from, direct purchases on sites for a period of time and targeted PPC campaigns.

The fact that it was recently acquired by Technorati virtually gurantees that service should be spot on as their reputation is at stake. However, AdEngage is not all ‘flowery’ as it seems. Based on some of the user reviews expressed in some webmaster forums AdEngage has a bad reputation atleast over the past for poor quality traffic and low performance for publishers.

The fact is that AdEngage like most other advertising networks work for some and not for others, thus bringing around plenty of mixed feelings for the service, just take a look at this posts from Digitalpoint:

I paid for 3 weekly placements costing a total of $50 for the period. I used AdEngage to promote a web site that offers free memberships and upgraded paid memberships. I received over 1,800 clicks and not a single click turned into a free membership. AdEngage’s traffic is utter garbage — in fact, it’s worse than garbage — it’s absolute cr@p.

AdEngage works fine for me. My average CPC is 0.13 and they have that small icons that make people to click on them.

as an advertiser i love adengage, because I will buy $3 in text links and make $10 on adsense. but as a publisher i hate adengage because nobody will click on their ads.

The last statement was a little conradictory but I guess all the above ‘mini-reviews’ just goes to show that you need to try the service out yourself to see if it would work for you.

    I have never heard about this network. When you said it is from Technorati, I would say yes. It must be a well connected network, how did I miss this.

    Never heard about this ads network. I would love to join, but anyone has received any payment from them? If yes, it could add up my meal.

    Hello Freelife,
    AdEngage has been around for a while, guess it’s been under the radar though, thanks for commenting.
