CPM advertising networks behave pretty much as PPC networks, except that you get paid according to the number of impressions (i.e., page views) that the ads displayed on your site will generate. CPM stands for Cost per Mille, and it refers to the cost for 1,000 impressions.

A blog that generates 100,000 page views monthly displaying an advertising banner with a RM1 CPM, therefore, will earn RM100 monthly. CPM rates vary with the network, the position of the ad and the format. The better the network, the higher the CPM rate (because they have access to more advertisers). The closer you put the ad to the top of the page, the higher the CPM. The bigger the format (in terms of pixels), the higher the CPM.
You can get as low as RM0,10 and as high as RM10 per 1,000 impressions (more in some special cases). CPM advertising tends to work well on websites with a high page views per visitor ratio (e.g., online forums, magazines and so on).

List of popular CPM advertising networks:
1. Burst Media Online Advertising Network and Publisher Ad Network Representation
2. AdsDaq (no traffic requirement) – While they only provide CPM ads to specific countries.
3. ValueClick Media – The Pure Performance Advertising Network
4. Advertising.com | We Make the World Click

Previous post regarding to WordPress Plugin: Thumbnails images to your blog via Get the Image, which is useful for magazine style themes, and allow you thumbnails images for your blog. Today, i will share with you a greatful php script (TimThumb PHP Script) written by Tim McDaniels as a way to achieve the core functionality of phpthumb while using half the code. Ben then added PNG and GIF support, plus improved speed and caching.

How do I use it?
Simply copy the source code into a new document called ‘timthumb.php’, place it in a folder on your site (ex: /scripts/) and call the image like this:

<IMG alt="" src="/scripts/timthumb.php?src=/images/image_name.jpg&h=150&w=150&zc=1" >

Some important things to note:
•TimThumb requires the GD library, which is available on any host sever with PHP 4.3+ installed.
•Once installed and in-use, TimThumb will automatically create a /cache/ subfolder with proper write-permissions. If your host server doesn’t allow this by default, be sure to manually change the /cache/ folder permissions to 777.
•In addition, make sure the folder which contains TimThumb is set to 777.
•As in the example, use absolute paths for your script and images

TimThumb allows the following parameters:
•w: width
•h: height
•zc: zoom crop (0 or 1)
•q: quality (default is 75 and max is 100)
