BidVertiser for Publishers |
NOTE: Since I have written the review, Bidvertiser seems to have gone down with quality, standards and PPC. I no longer believe that it is as good as it was at the time of writing review.
BidVertiser (a division of Bpath, LTD.) is one of the oldest PPC (Pay Per Click) network started in 2003 along with the launch of Adsense. In this post I am going to give a detailed and transparent review on Bidvertiser so that you can know about the network and can decide whether you should join it?

Pros and Cons
BidVertiser Review: Pros and Cons |
Pros
- Signing Up is Easy and Fast. It seems there is no approval process. Your site will get accepted as soon as you will submit it. At the end I have explained “How to Sign Up for BidVertiser?” and start running their ads.
- Various ways to make money: Pay Per Click Ads, Conversions, Toolbar, XML Feeds, Pop Unders and Slider Ads. Right combination of these ways can make increase your income by 2X to 5X (I have myself experienced it).
- Various Ad Formats: Banners, Skyscrapers, Inline Ads, Rectangles and Mobile Ads.
- Ads can be customized to fit the look of your website or blog, by altering the fonts, colors, layout and size.
- They provide 100% fill rate and pays for worldwide traffic from almost any country.
- Subdomains are also accepted. Subdomains include yourdomainname.blogspot.com yourdomainname.wordpress.com, even warez sites are accepted.
- It has also a referral program from which money can be made referring Advertisers and Publishers to BidVertiser.
- Minimum Payout is only $10.00 for Paypal. If your account’s balance did not reach minimum payout at month end, the balance will be carried over into the next month and paid out once you have earned the minimum payout or more.
Cons
- Design of website is not attractive. This is one of the reasons that only few people Sign Up to BidVertiser.
- Initially Earning is low due to less exposure of your website to the advertisers.
- There are fluctuations in daily earnings. You may earn one day $12 but at the very next day only $3.
- Ads are displayed according to category and may not be relevant if your niche is small.
- It may sometime appear that BidVertiser is not counting some the clicks you get; it is because of their click protection algorithm and fraud detection team which do not count repeated clicks on same ad, invalid or fraud clicks. This is done to ensure that advertisers pay only for real and valid clicks.
- Quality of ads is not very good.
My Earnings and How much will you earn?
BidVertiser Earnings Screenshot June 2013 |
BidVertiser Earnings Screenshot July 2013 |
Note: There is increase in my earnings from June to July even after having less page impressions and clicks in July. This is the reason I suggest everybody to stick to BidVertiser to see constant improvement in their earnings over time.Are you tensed that earnings are too low (compared to Adsense, because it is higher than other ad networks)? Then you should know the reasons behind it.
- The above earnings are made from my blog which was based on Games (generally the lowest paying niche).
- 85% of my visitors were from India, Pakistan and Indonesia which are again considered as low paying countries.
So it all depends on your niche and country your site is targeted. You may earn 10 to 20 times more from the same page impressions if your niche is high paying and country targeted is USA, UK and Australia.

BidVertiser as an Adsense Alternative
BidVertiser as an Adsense Alternative |
I guess, more than half of you who are reading this post are not getting approval for Adsense or you are banned from Adsense. The previous statement would have been scary if there would have only Adsense as an Ad Network, but it’s not the case. In fact there are hundreds of Ad network other than Adsense to monetize your site and one of them is BidVertiser.
- It is quite similar to Adsnese as it provides text and PPC ads. The only difference is that Adsnese displays ads according to content while BidVertiser displays according to category.
- Its Pay Per Click is lower than Adsense but higher than most of the other networks out there.
- Similar to Adsnese you can customize the look of the ads.
- It has 100% fill rate and pays for traffic from any country.
Should you Sign Up for BidVertiser?
Should you choose BidVertiser? |
Read the whole review but still confused if you should choose BidVertiser? Then here is help for you…
- You are banned from Adsense or not getting approval for Adsense
- You have a new blog
- You have your site hosted at subdomain like yoursite.blogspot.com or yoursite.wordpress.com etc
- You have warez site.
- You are trying to make money from your blog but other networks are not giving good results.
- You are experimenting with various ad networks. I Sign Up to various networks just to test. I love doing it.
- You want to use additional money generating source for your site.
- You are approved for Adsense. Though you can use Adsense and Bidvertiser together if Bidvertiser’s ads does not look similar to Adsense ads, I recommend to optimize you Adsnese ads instead of adding Bidvertiser ads.
- You are very professional. Yes, this point is important, professional here means you care of your visitors very much. It is because some of the time Bidvertiser shows non related ads which may be irritating to your visitors.

How to Make Money from BidVertiser?
How to Make Money from BidVertiser? |
Since you have placed ads on your website/blog, you must be curious to know how can you make good money from BidVertiser? Here are few tips that will really help:
- Use Rectangle or Banner Ads in between the post. Best places are just below the Post Title or at the end of the post or at both the places.
- Also try to place your ads above the fold. Above the fold is place that is visible to your visitor without scrolling down your website. But please do not fill lot of ads there; it will discourage your visitors.
- Use their ToolBar and XML feeds ads. I’m not using them now but they can make you some extra money.
- If your site is professional, I recommend you not to use their slider or pop under ads. But if it is not the case you may use one of them. They can boost our earnings.
- Don’t use more than three ads. Research shows that users do not click on ads if they see more number of ads filled in website/blog. So, fewer ads can eventually lead to more money.
- Experiment your ad positions: Every time my #1 tip may not work. It all depends on the site design and niche. So if one ad position does not work, do experimentation. You may be surprised from the results.
- Work on your blog (Most Important): add more content, do SEO, design you blog beautifully and try to increase your visitors. Because more the visitors more will be the clicks and finally you will be making more money.
- Be Patient: It is the most important thing, especially in case of BidVertiser. If you would be patient with BidVertiser, it will reward you by giving higher PPC rates and exposure to better advertisers.
- Don’t Give Up: You may get depressed some of the time when you struggle to make money. But giving up is not the solution. Try out the above tips more seriously especially #7. Working on your blog and content can do a miracle.

Thanks for reply jitesh..
Happy christmas…
Very good Post. But I have to ask one question from you. I have get almost 500 impressions but there is no revenue in my account. What is the reason for this and I'm waiting for your reply. 🙂
Hi Shehara,
Being honest, I cannot tell you the exact reason you are not making money out of your impressions because it depends on number of things like your niche, ad placement and size, your site's theme and much more. But, I can suggest you to experiment with the resources you have to maximize your earnings. I will also suggest you to keep trying, because this is where majority of people fail. You can also refer to the last section of my post to get some tips to increase your earnings with Bidvertiser.
Good Luck and All the Best.
This is my site http://depositapps.blogspot.com and this is bidvertiser report http://i.imgur.com/77s2vVf.png
And my site gain around 150 daily page views and I don't know what's the reason for this.
Please take a look and tell me what is the reason!
Hi Shehara,
First of all I would like to say that Bidvertiser takes time to update its stats and it also takes time to expose your site in front of high paying advertisers, so keep patience. Also 150 daily views is very less considering your niche, so try getting more organic traffic. Also you will get better earnings if you can get visitors from high paying countries.
Keep trying and all the best!
hi my website is http://www.extracric.in and is quite new with around 1000 unique visitors per month. can i make something via this ?
Hi Gaurav,
1000 unique visitors is quite less considering your niche and target country. Try writing unique SEO optimized articles. Also you have to work on your site's design and make it better.
Don't give up, because everyone starts from zero. You said, it's a new site hence 1000 visits a month is not bad. Just keep trying.
Good Luck!
Admin please help me 🙂
1. How do I make transparent ads (hide ads –> get more clicks)
2. Place ads on any position at blogger
Thanks
I dont't practice tricks to get clicks, so i have no idea. i also recommend you not to do this trick because it will end with ban on you.
You can place ads in blogger through layout editor or through editing template.
what is the largest ammount you pay since 2007???
I have got $162 at most in a month. Other publishers make even more than that.
what is the time of payment?
Bidvertiser pays on Net 30. That means you If you earned $100 till the end of April 30, you will be paid on May 30.
Nice blog
Hi Gaurav,
It's my pleasure that you liked my blog 🙂
Thanks bro . For nic information
I have mothly 1,50,000 monthly views on my blog .
How much i can make minimum
Hi Noor,
Actually I cannot tell how much will you make because it all depends on your niche, ad placement, targeted countries etc. i can just suggest you to keep experimenting to find the best combination to earn most amount of money. Best of luck….
Bro what are revenue points
Hi Abhishek,
I have already described revenue points in my post, within the sub-section "My Earnings and How much will you earn?". You can check it out there.
HI
I would wish to know how long it takes for bidvertiser to make their payments after the 30th day.
Hi Kenneth,
Bidvertiser pays on Net 30. That means your earnings of May 2015 will be paid on 30th of June.
What could be the reason behind that since I had exceeded he minimum threshold of $10 to be paid through pay pal?
Hi Kenneth,
Let me clear it out for you. Let's say you made $10 or more in month of May, from May 1 to May 31. Since Bidvertiser pays on Net 30, it will pay you 30 days after May 31. So you will get your payment on June 30 or June 31. I hope this clears your confusion.
Thanks Jitesh for your advice i received my payment from bidvertiser on time.
I have 469 impressions but my revenue points is still 0 why?
Hi Okey,
Sometimes it takes times to show up revenue points in Bidvertiser, so it's not a thing to worry.
Nice post. it's so easy to adding bidvertiser adds to my blog
Please do i need to be changing Ad Code everyday?
No,you don't have to change Ad code everyday. Just place it once and your ad will be shown there till you remove it.
Hi, great article! ?
I want ask you something.
How many visitor/view/click of your blog to get $100/month?
Thanks
Hi AmangUdan,
It depends on many factors like your blog niche, quality of traffic, placement and types of ads used, targeted country and much more. So, I cannot answer your question. Just use the tips given in post to maximize your earnings. Good Luck.
Hi Prasad
nice post you are putting here.
I recently use bidvertiser to monetizing my blog and so far I feel great. In my opinion a small medium blog like my blog (www.kandrawilko.info) using bidvertiser to monetize the traffic is the best option so far. Previously I used Google Adsense and the result was bad. With a lot of things changing, earning with adsense will be bad for small medium website or blog.
Your review just answered my question about this network.
Wow! great review with answers for my question.
Hi Jitesh, very well blog indeed. Thanks.
I guess you need to add what account to choose, e.g., "Advertiser", "Publisher" or "Referral" when we sign up? or we simply can use the same email for all? 🙂
Hi Terence,
After you sign up at Bidvertiser, you automatically become "Advertiser", "Publisher" and "Referral".
what is the minimum and maximum ppc of bidvertiser
They are providing very low quality ads and CPC and RPM was very low. I found adsense, Infolinks better than bidvertiser. Never had a good luck with Bidvertiser.
Hi jitesh .
My site is bollybell.com . my 70% traffic is from ind-pak , and rest from middle east . i got 2000 impressions per day . with an avg of 300 visitors per day . but my revenue points are only 2 ? Why ?
And i had connected my website from google analytics and google shows 5000+ pageviews per day . whats the difference between pageviews and impressions ?
And also tell me if someone signup after click on ads or install apps after click . how much they pay for that ?
Hey bro how did u got more than 10000 visitors per day?
Sorry for late reply friends. I was actually busy in some of my other projects.
@unishort
It is not possible to know the maxiumum and minimum cpc bidvertiser pays.
@Vishwajeet Kumar
Thanks for the update. I actually have stopped using Bidvertiser long ago after I got approved for adsense. After hearing sour recent experiences, I no longer support Bidvertiser.
@deepti
As I said, stop using Bidvertiser. it has gone way down compared to what it was earlier.
@Ankit Raj
That needs lot of hard work. Keyword research, quality content and SEO can do miracles!
What do you recommend to my site if I cant use adsense?
I tried Bidvertiser but I think its ruin my sites quality…
Do u have any experience about ''media.net'' ?
Hi Roki,
I don't have experience with Media.net but you can try it out.
@ Jitesh Prasad can you recommend good ad website instead of bidvertiser. For 75000 impressions i got only 7 $ and that too now he is giving only 0.01 $ per day for 2000 impressions…
Hi Radz,
I would recommend Adsense. BuySellAds will be good too.
I earned $623 US Dollars Just in four months. Bidvertsier is a great ad network.
