Cubics Description

Cubics is an advertising network designed exclusively for social networks - in fact it was the very first advertising network within this niche. Cubics was bought in 2007 by Adknowledge and they are headquartered out of Kansas City, Missouri. They display highly targeted ads and provide advertisers with the best way to reach their target audiences - and all of this is done in such a way that the ad space value is maximized for the Cubics publishers.
Cubics Detailed Overview

Cubics will give you the opportunity to actually monetize your social profiles. So, if you have a Facebook or Myspace page you can put ads on there and start generating revenue. To get started all you have to do is place the ad code on your applications - very simple and easy to do, it will only take a minute or so. Once you have done that, the ads will be immediately displayed on your page, then as people view your ads you will begin to generate revenue. Once you start making money (and it could be as much as $1.50 for 1000 views) you will be able to choose how and when you want to be paid. You can choose to be paid either through your PayPal account or with a check, you can choose the minimum amount you want to be paid, and you can choose how often you want to be paid.

Advertisers using Cubics will find their ads placed on social sites in just minutes and see traffic being generated through one of the most popular ways - social media. It is very simple to get your advertising campaigns up and running - all you need to do is type the text that you would like displayed, choose your target customers (this can be done by age, gender, and location), and then sit back and watch your website visitor count grow. You can set up an advertising campaign that fits into your budget, you can specify the exact amount you are wanting to spend and you can also choose how much you are willing to pay for each website visitor. With Cubics you will have effective targeting of your ads, as well as having them put where you can reach the most customers.

Cubics Reputation

Being able to make money off of your social profiles is pretty exciting - always nice to make money doing something you are already doing. This is a great way to generate some extra cash without any additional effort on your part - and if you have a lot of visitors you could see a significant amount of income being generated. Since the ads are going to be geared toward your page interests - you will find a lot of your visitors interested in and clicking them.

This service is a rip-off

I used cubics on my social photo sharing web site that has 100% user submitted content. I ran their ads for 2 weeks.

1) I got really poor CPM, about half of adsense. Clearly them being "optimized" for social networking actually is worse for my site.

2) Their ads load extremely slowly. About 25% of the time, the ads either did not load or loaded after 5 secs, a situation that guarantees no clicks.

3) Some of their ads are really annoying seizure inducing flashing images, or with annoying audio ("Congratulations, you've won!"). There are options for turning off such ads but they continued to display those ads even after I turned such ads off.

4) I earned about $25, but then I learned that they had closed my account (WITHOUT paying me). They cited adult content as the reason. I review the submitted photos from time to time to ensure that there is no adult or pornographic material. Sometimes 1-2 weeks pass before I can review, and in the interim someone may upload such photos. However, my site has 8,500,000 photos, so 99.999% of the site is free of such content even if 10 photos happen to be adult for the short time till I delete them. I mentioned this to them and they did not even reply. They simply found an excuse to not pay me.

In short, a disappointing service and not worth consideration. FAIL.

Cubics deletes account

It was actually Lookery and then sold to Cubics.

Benefit of ads is every few seconds new ads appear giving more ad impressions.

Disadvantage, site using it becomes a little slow compared to other ad networks.

Payout $10 via Paypal->Advantage

It deletes accounts, without proper notification, justification and never replies to mail of deleted users.

Interesting and Easy

This is a very interesting type of advertising. I, like many other reviewers, am using it for my facebook pages. I don't have many friends in my list, but I do have enough to generate $20. It may not be much but you don't have to do anything! The program pays with paypal whenever you want.

It was very easy to signup and get started. All you have to do is place the ad code on your Facebook page. I set my pay rate to twice a month and I received payment exactly on time. I would recommend this to anyone with enough friends to actually make money.

Interesting approach and idea

I’ve never come across such advertising networks before. It was very fun trying Cubics out. I was surprised and happy to see how good it can be sometimes. All I did was putting some ads on some of my facebook pages. And because I am a relatively active facebook user and I got lots of friends in my list, I’ve started to make money with Cubics very fast. I know, that it’s not much, but you don’t have to do ANYTHING either. That’s pretty cool. Right now my average rate is $1.1 for 1000 views. I’ve made $14 so far. The program pays via PayPal whenever you want and with customizable minimum. It’s all one might ask for. It suits member's needs very well.

The Greatest!

Cubics is a great advertising network. I heard about them from a friend who is big into blogging and he highly recommend Cubics. So I figured I would try Cubics out. I posted a few ads on one of my most popular blogs and I was amazed at what I saw. Just after a few days I was making some pretty good money. It takes only a few seconds to get your ad setup. The best part about it all was I can get paid when I want and how often I want and it can be done all through PayPal. This is a big bonus from me because PayPal is my favorite of all online payment processors. I have already been paid once and I will be getting paid again very soon. I am now putting ads from Cubics on all of my blogs as well as my facebook page. Cubics is a spectacular advertising network and pays extremely fast. I highly recommend you try them out if you want to make some easy money.

Cubics is an unique advertising network

Cubics is a unique advertising network. I can earn money through my social network websites. I am using it for my Facebook page. It’s very easy to start earning money. All I had to do was to place the ad code on my Facebook page. I like that I have the possibility to receive payment through paypal. I can also choose the minimum pay out and how often I would like to receive payment. I asked to be paid twice a month. I was already paid twice. I must say that they are very serious. They always pay in time. I was able to earn 200$.
