How to get started with Propeller Ads Media
Propeller Ads Media is a very quick network and the entry barrier is really low. You can sign up and get started in 5 minutes or less.
Their account approval is instantaneous, they have no minimum traffic requirements and as long as you’re not promoting adult websites or using fake traffic, setting up your first ads is just a matter of minutes.
First, go ahead and sign up for a Publisher account here (don’t sign up as an Advertiser) and confirm your email to get access to the dashboard.
Once you’re inside you’ll have all this options and you’ll see your earnings/impressions/clicks/etc.
Make sure you go to your Profile settings and fill up your payment method. They accept Payoneer, Wire, EPESE, Webmoney Z and a few other. Since many people use Paypal they’re going to add it in the next 2-3 months. They minimum payment limit is $100 and they pay on a NET 30 basis (i.e. what you earn on March will be payed at the end of April).
Next thing you’re going to do is to add your website in the “Sites” menu. Click the “Add new site” button and write your domain name then click “Submit“.
Propeller will give you an HTML code that you can now paste inside the body of your website (easy thing to do if you use WordPress or any other CMS) and that’s it. Your site will be verified and ready to go.
Finally, you’re going to choose the type of Ad you want to use so you can add it to your website and start making money! As you can see, Propeller Ads has many ads aside from Popunders. They have the classic banners (in case you’ve been banned from Adsense and can’t use Adversal/Chitika) and they have Direct, Dialog and Interstitial Ads too. I’ll explain how those work in a moment.
Your website will start showing the Ads you’ve select and you’ll be able to check your stats in Real Time within the stats and Earnings Dashboard:

Monetize Mobile Traffic
If you receive a lot of Mobile Traffic you might want to try some of the best Ads I’ve seen. While Adsense and other networks can show smaller banner for mobile devices, they’re not even close to what you can do with Propeller to monetize your mobile traffic.
Propeller has 2 different ads for mobile:
1. Interstitial Ads
This kind of Ads take over the whole screen on a mobile device to show a big banner catching the attention of the reader and increase the CTR by a lot. If you think a CTR of 1-5% is normal with banner ads, you’ll be surprised when you see a CTR of 10-30% with Interstitials.
Here’s how Interstitial Ads look:
Average CPM for Mobile Ads goes from $1 to $5 depending on the GEO of your traffic. I’ve seen good rates for Tier 3 countries like TH, IN, SG, VN, etc. So I know they have a good fill rate even if your traffic comes from small tier 3 countries.
2. Dialog/Push up ads
You should split interstitial Ads with Propeller’s Dialog Ads. The best way to explain how Dialog/push up ads work is to show you this screenshot:
As you can see, the Push up Ad looks like a notification message that appears as a Pop Up in your phone. The CTR with this ads is also amazing and the CPM ranges from $1-5. As long as the reader clicks OK, they’ll be redirected to a landing page/offer and you’ll get paid.
Interesting, isn’t it? This is a totally new different way to monetize your visits and you don’t rely on Banners at all.
Since most of the apps are promoting mobile apps/services like games and utilities (see images above to get an idea), this kind of ads work better for websites about games and everything mobile related. But you should always test and see if it works for you or not.
