It seems like a hybrid between an ad network and affiliate program but I can't determine if the two have to work exclusively together or if you will sell traffic to everyone like we do. I know you explained above but sometimes new ideas take a minute for me to process.

It is basically a mix of an affiliate program and an ad network, yes. But for it to work we need to control the ad display all the way to the members area. Since it all counts into the optimization.

So, it is only our own networks that we can advertise. But instead of you putting up an ad on a site, you put up an ad zone and let us handle the ads in it through our optimization.

This is an extension to our own ad sales team. Usually they just go to sites and buy an ad zone flat for a month. Now, the sites can come to us, setup the ad zone, and decide how to get paid, CPM, Flat or PPS/Revshare.

So whats better here than an affiliate program is that we can optimize the ads for you and we handle the ad bandwidth, which especially with video ads is quite a bit usually.

Whats better than a normal ad network is that we do not resell, we control the whole sales funnel down to rebills. So we can much better optimize how much we pay you and get you the highest payout possible!

Eventually we might add other networks to this, but then we need to get pixels for tracking certain events and need to be sure that these are fired correctly.
