## Why higher CPM matters

### Fewer ads, more revenue

At higher CPM, you need fewer impressions to hit your revenue goals. One tasteful sponsorship instead of cluttering your site with ads.

### Quality sponsors only

Higher rates mean we can be selective. Every sponsor is reviewed manually. Read our [sponsoring guidelines](/content/sponsor-guide/index.html).

### Lower payout threshold

Get paid at $5 instead of waiting to hit $50. Perfect for smaller sites and side projects that still deserve to earn.
