A long while back, I wrote about making money online with Voxant Newsroom. Since then, I make a small amount as a publisher every month, and it’s actually quite a nice addition. Back when I first mentioned it, Voxant provided video feeds which would play automatically on a visit to the site. That was a decent income generator on sites which had high traffic (as Voxant pays on CPM), and I had the video feeds on relevant news sites of my own.
Since then, they have stopped releasing automatic video feeds due to abuse by a number of publishers and subsequent complaints by advertisers. I thought that was a great move as abuse by a few black sheep would never be good news for the rest of the field who played by the rules. However, those who had previously been using these feeds were still allowed to do so as long as they stayed off the blacklist. If you missed the boat, it is unfortunate, but Voxant Newsroom has loads of quality videos, text and pictures for you to publish on your site, and with decent CPM, you should check out what they have to offer in terms of making some extra cash online while providing relevant content for your readers.
For example, if you have been blogging about the Presidential race in the U.S., they have numerous videos every day. If you are providing highlights of the daily NBA games, they have all the necessary reports and pictures which you can use. There are also timely updates on many celebrity news bits such as news on American Idol finalists such as the popular Asia’H Epperson and David Archuleta, and all sports from ice hockey to soccer. Various other niches are also available including health topics to even women interests such as fashion and beauty. Take your pick from their varied offering and surely you can monetize your site in one way or another with the Voxant Newsroom.
The only negative point so far has been their lowering of CPM rates about a month back. While I never probed further, I could only contribute it to lower advertising demand due to the U.S. recession.
But when it comes to making money online through CPM programs, this program definitely provides one of the best payouts that I have come across. Many other advertising networks have low CPM rates, and while the market for CPM advertising has dramatically decreased in recent years, using this program has been one of the better paying options.
On top of this, I have had very pleasant service correspondence with their staff. They have even started some impromptu rewards for publishers this week. 3 Ipod Shuffles are up for grabs for the top three publishers next week who manage the highest number of advertising impressions and % increase in impressions over the last week. It is the first time, in my experience with them, that such a contest has been held, and hopefully with more to follow in the near future. So, if your blog has a need for fresh content in various media, why not find out if the Voxant Newsroom would be a good fit?

1There are a million and ways to make money online, but it is always nice to hear when someone is getting paid, if for nothing more than to give everyone an idea of what works. This Voxant Newsroom sounds interesting I will have to give it a go and see what happens, thanks for the share.

2Hello YC, I was just stopping in to say Hi. I noticed you’ve been commenting over at Blogger Unleashed and I was jus wondering how it’s going. I know from personal experience that making money online is not all that easy. I hope it’s going well for you. I know Vic’s videos are inspirational, informative, and usually make me laugh. Take care, Emma
