Do you manage a visitor-based network and wish to generate additional revenue? The easiest way to receive guaranteed income is through Silver Lining’s plug-and-play ad serving network. Silver Lining and its advertising network pay you a portion of the ad revenue based on the amount of impressions generated on your network. The more users and impressions on your network the more revenue. This CPM advertising is the easiest and highest paid form of ad revenue.
An "Ad Impression" happens when one of your custom advertisements is shown. The ad could be one you created or simply code that you inserted to your Ad Zone from a person advertising across your network. Impressions are usually charged in blocks of 1,000. A block of 1,000 Ad Impressions is called a CPM.
