New feature: Wanted Daily Income (was Min Daily Income)

Update 2015-09-17: in order to prevent confusion, we renamed Min daily income to Wanted daily income, everything else in this article should be valid.

Publishers

We developed a feature that enables publishers to indirectly set the minimum price of their traffic by specifying the Min daily income parameter.

It doesn't automatically increase publishers' earnings but it increases their chances to earn affiliate rewards. If ad unit's earnings are lower than Min daily income then a share of its impressions will be used to display free affiliate ads:

affiliate share = Max(0, 1 - average income / min daily income)

Advertisers compete for free affiliate impressions by rewarding the sources of converting traffic.

If Min daily income is too high then most of the traffic will go to affiliate programs while the remaining traffic will become too expensive for advertisers.

If Min daily income is too low then the price of the traffic will be determined solely by market forces, no affiliate ads will be shown for free.

The default value is 0.00001000 Ƀ, so for new ad units 100% of impressions go to affiliate programs until they get paying advertisers.

Advertisers

Advertisers can set Max CPM parameter to exclude ad units with expensive traffic from their campaigns.

Please keep in mind that:

• CPM is volatile and counted based on the globally-unique impressions;
• average CPM is expected to be much lower than Max CPM;
• your daily budget will not be fully spent if there is no enough traffic that satisfies your criteria.

If you don't want to worry about price and quality of traffic then find out how you can get free traffic and pay only after it converts.
