Google AdSense Alternative - PropellerAds

On 6 May 2015, I signed up to be a publisher for PropellerAds media. I'm using PropellerAds as an alternative to Google AdSense. In this post, I will update the impressions, clicks, CPM & income from this Ads Network. There is nothing confidential about this and I think it gives transparency when reviewing the best Google AdSense Alternatives for my audience and followers.

So far, I have tried Google AdSense, Infolinks, RevenueHits, Bidvertiser, Chitika and Adclx.com. Of course Google AdSense gave the most revenue, followed by RevenueHits, Infolinks, Chitika and Bidvertiser. I have to drop Adclx.com because it is not generated any clicks and the impressions that it captured are pathetic. You can click on the above ads networks to see my review on other posts.

Today is 16 May 2015, 10 days after I signed up for PropellerAds. I'm getting earnings of US$0.194 for 776 impressions and 8 clicks. The $ forecast for May is US$0.60. This is the estimate value based on current statistics rate.

Once you have submitted the correct domain information, you will see that the status is pending and your website will be reviewed. You will be notified via email within 24 hours. Normally, you will receive email notification within 12 hours based on my experience. Please make sure that your website is online and does not contain any adult content.

In most Ads Networks, there is this referral program which gives 5% from publishers' revenue who registered via your referral link. I think this is a good idea to increase your income through referral. With a vast network of friends, bloggers, co-workers, social media friends, everyone can benefit from this. Spread the word about PropellerAds and earn money!

PropellerAds Referral Program

There are two drawbacks that I see in this alternative.

1. The minimum payout amount is US$100.00
2. There is no payment via PayPal

PropellerAds Payment Method

The minimum payout amount is still reasonable. However, I think that it can be flexible to reduce it to US$50. Payment via PayPal will be great since a lot of Ads Networks are using payment via PayPal. It would be perfect if PropellerAds can consider reducing the minimum payout to US$50 and allow payment via PayPal.

I think publishers who joined last year or early this year, there is an option for PayPal payment. But it was subsequently removed and I hope it can be put back.
