Any broker.
Bad brokers have shit traffic, good brokers have good traffic that they send to their good clients, and shit traffic they send to newbs.
Not because they're scammers, but because if they are good, they have more buyers than sellers. End of the line gets shit.

But what do I know about brokering traffic?

If you're going to use a broker, when you get to the point that you have excess, stop buying it from them and work deals yourself.

Otherwise you may end up selling traffic for half of what you have to buy it for. That defeats the purpose... Simple math, but I'm surprised at the number of people that simply don't get it.

If you go to "advertisers" and click on "Marketplace" you will see them

Google pagerank, Alexa Rank, views, it's all there....

My advice would be to start with a small limited budget but spread it around on a few different sites/networks to find out what works well with your particular offer.

Once you find something that works and that you can scale, then open the floodgates and start hitting it as hard as you can before everyone else catches on and copies you LOL! ;-)

Google brokers traffic too. I am pretty happy with the results if you ask me.
Sites and networks are just an extension of people. If they have the right intensions, then you can work from there.
When it comes to adult, ask around with all people that actually use or used the network and get results from it / or at least have experience with it:

Can't post them all...

all depends from which site you'r buying. All brokers have option to buy from domains.
buy 5-10k to test, check referers, then buy from each and test - you'll have few urls with suitable for you traffic.

With the ROI pixel option on the advertisers thank you page and the xml back to ero-advertising.com's admin of the referers, buyers can easily block/drop/delete any referers for campaings that are not useful or profitable to them according to their wishes, before they start adding more funds into successful tested campaigns with the help/advise of the expert staff online there to help.
