We understand that webmasters and companies looking to promote their online products have a wide variety of goals, and budgets to meet those goals. To meet these objectives, we’re proud to offer a wide variety of advertising methods using our custom P2L Network Ad System. Please read below for an overview of our campaign formats:
Time-Based Campaigns:
Time-based campaigns are purchased in timed increments of weeks, months or years. You do not pay per click or per impressions, you simply pay a flat fee for a pre-determined amount of time for each campaign. The process if very simple – you pick the ad format you want and how long you want to run the ad for, process the payment and the campaign is ready to go.

PPC and CPM Campaigns:
Our advanced PPC and CPM system is a fantastic tool for advertisers looking for high conversion and very precise target goals.
PPC stands for Pay Per Click, and is one of the most popular advertising methods in the global internet market. The concept is simple, you pay for each unique click your ad receives. In order to create PPC campaigns, you simply purchase P2L Click Credits. Once you have acquired Click Credits on your account, you can create as many PPC based ad campaigns as you wish and assign clicks from your Click Credits. As a quick example, if you were to purchase 1000 Click Credits, you could then create 1 PPC ad campaign and assign all 1000 credits, or create 10 campaigns with 100 credits each, or even 100 campaigns with 10 credits each.
CPM stands for Cost Per 1000 Impressions. This means that you pay a set amount every time your and is displayed on the site 1000 times, regardless of how many clicks you receive. CPM campaigns run on the same credit based system as PPC campaigns, only you need to purchase CPM Credits rather than Click Credits. Once again, you must first purchase CPM Credits and then you are able to create as many CPM campaigns as you wish, and then assign CPM credits to them.
One of the wonderful features of the PPC and CPM system is that you can purchase any of the available designated ad types in either format. This means that no matter if you prefer PPC or CPM ads, all credit based ad formats are available for both. Click here to view the available ad campaigns, or click here to purchase credits.
You can also view your available Click Credits and CPM Credits on the left side menu from anywhere within the ad system area, as well as purchase additional credits.
Step 3: Enjoy!
Now that you have created your ad campaign, it will be reviewed and approved within 12 - 24 hours and enabled on the P2L Ad System. At this point, you can visit the Campaign Management area (make this clickable to the management area) and view all of your ad's statistics in real-time, plus edit your campaign, pause and unpause, and renew expired ads.
