Ask HN: What kind of CPMs are you getting for your ad-supported site?

We had a hard time making sense of our ads. We're only pulling in $1.50 cpm. It hurts!

We have some experimental Google Adsense running on our consumer site (www.newscred.com), and we get around 1.80 CPM. Which is better than I expected, but still pretty shitty.

We've tried making the ads look less gross so they are more inviting, and some minor tweaks have helped.

Wow your site looks great. What sort of CMS are you using to manage all that content?

That's better than us. We're currently in the sub-dime range :( Do you have any tips?

Well we have a PR5 so that might be one reason. What's your PR?

Thanks for your answer.

Our page rank is 3. Do ad networks use that to discriminate the quality and/or the payout? Or do you sell ads yourself?

I think google probably puts some emphasis on PR since its an indicator of your sites value. I don't have hard data on PR vs cpm though. Let me know if you find any data on this...
