For bloggers, if you want to build your blog and making it a cash profit machine for you, BuySellAds is definitely a great advertisement network besides Google AdSense.

BuySellAds, actually they are now increasingly popular for the bloggers especially in the Web design and development niche. Currently, there have attracted nearly 1,400 blogs as their publishers in which they used BuySellAds as the ads network to sell advertising banners onto their sites. While it’s free to sign-up and use BuySellAds, but you must add a Web property, i.e. your blog’s URL address and get their approval before you are allowed to set up the ad zones onto your site.

It’s important to note that not every blog are qualified as the publishers of BuySellAds. For those who have rejected by BuySellAds, although the blog you’re running is occupied by rich content and high traffic. Perhaps what you can do now other than wondering about why you’ve been rejected via a standard reply email, you can visit this forum thread and learn more about their selection criteria:

…actually in we are #1 in our main vertical which is web design/development, this means it’s easier for us to find an advertiser for someone interested in this niche. We’re sketching up new verticals in the near future.

Bottom point is, although you’re site might have been fantastic, we try our best to keep our publishers happy.

On the other side, once you blog has been approved, BuySellAds will then acts as a broker between you blog and the pool of advertisers. On the downside, however, they do take a slightly larger cut of the cost of the ads. For instance, if the cost of your ad is $10 (the minimum you can price your ad), BuySellAds will cut 25% as the fee of their service, and the remaining $7.50 will be your payout. In the meantime, you can choose the payment option to be PayPal, Check or Wire Transfer.

Overall, BuySellAds is a perfect ad network should you decide to give it a try.
