Adserver payment? How does that work?

You all had one of those adserver payments either saying publisher payment or owner payment but I have seen quite a few people confused to what it actually means and why it is never a round number.

It doesn't mean that all the money was gathered from an owner or published post, just that the last one was.

Each time someone clicks on a post you own or created you get some part of the advertisement banner in place. For METABBS we are boosted to $150 plus whatever the person running paid so $150+1 to $150. This money is divided in 1000 clicks CPM meaning Cost Per Mille (I.E. 1000). So say you have a $151 campaign running this is a click giving $.151 divided equally between owner and publisher. So you get $.0755 per click unless you are both.

Now imagine that the adserver is a Japanese Shishi-odoshi (see bellow). The water is the impression money and it fills the bamboo bellow but until the bamboo reaches a certain amount of water, it will not pour it down.

It doesn't matter how long it takes to fill it to $1 or over, you will only get it once that limit is reached. Though since you get uneven amount of money you can easily get widely varying sums.

I hope that made this clearer.

If you like my tutorials, I have quite a few more on my profile.
