BuySellAds is just like the name sounds, It is a platform where advertisers go and meet publishers for their ads and you (publisher) go and collect ads that you will like to show in your blog and make money. It is not a Pay-Per-Click program but it is still a very good adsense alternative for a blog with big traffic. When your application got approved in BuySellAds you will be required to choose a space where you will like to show your BSA ads, the perfect place is in the blog header or after post title. After which advertisers will place their ads on those spaces, the ads stays for 30 days and it vanishes and can be replace with another one. Before ads can be shown in space created you will see the ads in  your BSA dashboard, you can approve it if the price is ok for you or disapprove if it is not. But remember that if the advertiser pays $100 for putting ads in your blog for a month. BSA will take $25 which is 25% per their policy.

BuySellAds advertiser's price are usually favourable to publishers and you have the right to disapprove any ad that you don't like the bid price. You can be making up to $1000 per month with BSA if you have a blog with high traffic volume especially traffics from US.  BuySellAds like Adsense have stringent approval process.

Wouldn't it be cool to make money from Google's biggest rivalry when it comes to search engine? Media.net is contextual advertising platform that is being managed by Bing and Yahoo network who also has their search engine known as Bing search. They provides high quality targeted ads to it's users. This means if you want to get accepted as Media.net publisher you need to have a blog with targeted and quality content. Media.net admits to me that they have a backlog when it comes to admitting new publishers, so it can take up to two weeks to get approved. They are a very good adsense alternative.

Revenue Hits is an Isreali performance (CPA) based advertising network that have been operating since 2008 but not many people knew about them, They pay you based on the action took by individuals who click on their ads and not by the clicks.

Nobody will click on the ads on your blog if nobody is seeing them, When it comes to making money with ads you placed on your blog, targeted traffic matters a lot. Do a proper Seo and also use social media like Facebook to drive massive traffic to your blog, the more people visiting your blog the more clicks you will be seeing, most of these recommended ads are contextual, meaning ads are served based on the content of your blog so your visitor is likely to see what interests him/her.
Don't settle for normal traffic if you want extra-ordinary earnings, spend money to get more traffic to your blog for chance to earn bigger, that's how the pros does it.

1. Header (Recommended Format: 728x90)
2. After the post title (Recommended format: 468x15, 468x68)
3. In the middle of the post (Recommended format: 180x150, 125x125, 120x240, 200x200)
4. Immediately after the post (Recommended format: 300x250, 468x60, 336x280)
5. Sidebar (Recommended format: 125x125, 120x600, 300x600)
