Interstitial vs Direct Link vs Frame: Which Format Should You Use?

Interstitial (Recommended for maximum earnings)

Shows a full-page ad before redirecting visitors. CPM rates: $1.00–$4.00 per thousand for Tier 1 traffic. Best for: YouTube descriptions, Telegram channels, forums.

Direct link (Best user experience)

Sends visitors immediately to the destination with a small banner overlay. CPM: $0.50–$2.00. Best for: Professional networks, email newsletters.

Frame / Banner (Social sharing)

Loads the destination inside an iframe with ads above or below. CPM: $0.40–$1.50. Best for: News sharing, content aggregation.

Smart link (Advanced)

Sends visitors to different destinations based on their country or device. Ideal for affiliate marketers with geo-specific offers.
