There are many ways you can make money blogging, such as advertising, affiliate marketing, selling digital products and sponsored posts among others.

Joining the right ad networks can help you to make fulltime income from advertising.

However, some of the best ad networks have minimum traffic requirements you must meet before you apply.

This can be discouraging, especially for beginners who have new blogs with zero traffic.

In this post, I have compiled a list of 7 best ad networks for new bloggers. You do not need to meet any minimum traffic requirements to join these networks before they have instant account approval process.

Vertical Ad Networks: These are niche or topic-specific ad networks, which display ads from a particular subject, such as technology, fashion, and automobiles among others.

Inventory specific Ad networks: These are ad networks which deal with specific inventory, such as mobile, video and native ads among others.

Affiliate Ad networks: These are the ones which use CPC, CPA, CPM and other revenue models to compensate publishers who display the ads on their websites.

Ad formats available: An ad network which offers a variety of ad formats is the best you should choose because one type of ad does not fit all your audience needs and content types.

Payment terms: Carefully research on the compensation model (such as CPC, CPM, CPV or CPA) used by the ad network to measure the returns. Also, make sure that the ad network supports your most favorable payment method.

Customer reviews: Carefully research or ask customers who have used the ad network about their experiences before you use it on your website.
