Making money online for your website through advertising networks makes web traffic monetization less strenuous. Many rely on the Google AdSense ad network but there as numerous other ad networks out there, networks more finely tuned to your demographics, site content, and monetary goals. I have written previously about the basics of making money online, in-text advertisements, picture advertisements, video advertisements, and I have spoken about other ad networks beyond Google.
Now it is time to bring to your attention new ad networks that I have discovered (many from other film websites) that you can use on your own website. Note: read over their requirements before applying. It will save you time and effort.
First, what is an Advertising Network?
An online advertising network or ad network is a company that connects advertisers to web sites that want to host advertisements. The key function of an ad network is aggregation of ad space supply from publishers and matching it with advertiser demand. The phrase “ad network” by itself is media-neutral in the sense that there can be a “Television Ad Network” or a “Print Ad Network”, but is increasingly used to mean “online ad network” as the effect of aggregation of publisher ad space and sale to advertisers is most commonly seen in the online space. The fundamental difference between traditional media ad networks and online ad networks is that online ad networks use a central ad server to deliver advertisements to consumers, which enables targeting, tracking and reporting of impressions in ways not possible with analog media alternatives.
With the explanation of what we are looking at out of the way, lets begin.

Giant Media works with brands and their agencies to distribute brand videos, harnessing our social video platform, VideoStat, to seed branded content through our publisher network.

Complex Media ads appear on film websites: Geektyrant, JoBlo (interview here), We Got This Covered (interview here), The Film Stage, and Collider under the banner of ‘Complex Movies.’
From the film sites listed above, my guess is that you need millions of hits per week to be granted admittance into this ad network.
