Hi Anil,
Thanks for stopping by my site. I’m glad you like it.
I have just started using media.net ads, is there any charges for wire transfer ?
Thanks a lot for your quick reply.
My pleasure Sadek. 🙂
Hi Sadek,
Congrats for the Media.net approval. Yes the bank may charge you minimal fee to receive earnings via Wire transfer. The charges may vary from bank to bank. You need to contact your bank for more information. I wish you great success. 🙂
Hi Suresh,
I used Media.net but all I got was $0.00 CPM. I contacted them but earnings (zero) didn’t improve so I had to ditch them.
Can you suggest any ad network good for Indian Bloggers.
Thanks.
Hi Jayant,
It is bad to hear that you haven’t gained anything from Media.net. Unfortunately Media.net doesn’t perform well for Indian targeted sites or blogs. I strongly recommend affiliate marketing ( CPA) rather than relying on contextual advertising programs. I hope it helps. 🙂
Hi,
I applied media.net ads on my site and just 15 days have been passed. They said they will give payment in end of July as they follow 30 day payment system. So I provided my bank details, does all banks support wire transfer or some? If some so it means I will lose my payment? I’m from Pakistan.
Thanks
Hi Mohammad,
It is good to hear that you have been approved as a Media.net publisher. Yes almost every bank accepts wire transfer. But, it is my sincere suggestion to go with Paypal as the deduction price is higher with Wire transfer as compared to Paypal. I hope it helps you. Thanks for asking. 🙂
Hi,
I am Alex Smaithz. after register from media.net. check email not link invite
Why? (GMail)
Sorry I didn’t get you. Did you get the confirmation email about the approval?
This is a good general post discussing media nets ad program. I was looking for something more in depth but thanks for the info.
As of right now I am using Media.net, but I may give them up soon based on my experience and the fact that many other bloggers are having issues with getting paid for their impressions.
I am getting impressions primarily from US,CA, and UK yet my rom says zero while last week I was earning daily with them.
To put it simply, I am getting more impressions, but not earning money from them, if they don’t fix it or if they don’t explain it, then I am done and will just stick to other income methods. Ya know, ones that actually pay.
Hello Laria, You just need to experiment with other networks. Why don’t you try Propeller Ads or Adtomatik?
Hey Suresh,
Thanks for the recommendations, I will check them out!
Yup if they don’t work for you for some reasons then go with Adnow native ads.
