quietly in 2014, at the end of September.\n\nFor those unaware, Amazon CPM Ads was designed to allow smaller publishers that were a part of Amazon Associates affiliate program to run additional ad units.\n\nCPM Ads, which appear in website banners along with other placements, operate on a cost-per-impression (<a href=\"https:\/\/www.mediavine.com\/cpms-ecpms\/\">CPM<\/a>) basis, but their days are officially numbered.\n\nAmazon Associates members were notified, and a help topic for affiliates also confirmed, the end of CPM Ads as of September 30 of this year.\n\n<img loading=\"lazy\"

noreferrer\">sunsetting CPM Ads<\/a>, but its elimination leaves a void for many publishers, especially smaller ones.\n\nAmazon&#8217;s other offerings in this area, such as Unified Ad Marketplace, seem engineered for larger websites, rather than smaller publishers, as Amazon CPM Ads were.\n\n<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">As we discussed in a recent comparison of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.mediavine.com\/mediavine-vs-adsense-a-world-of-difference\/\">Mediavine and Google AdSense<\/a>, programs like that and Amazon CPM Ads offered a safe, introductory option to online advertising. <\/span>\n\n<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Working in tandem with Amazon Affiliates, and run by one of the planet&#8217;s preeminent tech giants, it&#8217;s not a mystery how many bloggers implemented this basic monetization strategy.<\/span>\n\n<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.mediavine.com\/mediavine-is-for-big-publishers-and-smaller-blogs-too\/\">Mediavine is for big publishers<\/a> and small publishers alike, but especially in the case of the latter, the end of CPM Ads offers an opportunity to upgrade your ad management and more.<\/span>\n\nLike AdSense, Amazon CPM Ads are hands off, while Mediavine is as comprehensive and hands on as it gets, from the moment you join our community and as long as you&#8217;re with us.\n\n<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">We work with more than a dozen ad partners on the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.mediavine.com\/what-is-an-ssp\/\">supply side<\/a> to compete with one another &#8211; including the biggest, by far, in Google &#8211; for your inventory in real

of bare bones ad solutions, Mediavine is at the leading edge of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.mediavine.com\/what-is-programmatic-advertising\/\">programmatic advertising<\/a><\/span>\u00a0thanks to its technology and relationships within the industry.\n\n<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">As a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.mediavine.com\/mediavine-google-certified-publishing-partner\/\">Google Certified Publishing Partner<\/a>, Mediavine is one of a few dozen companies worldwide to be vetted and approved as industry leaders in ad technology.<\/span>\n\n<em>Just as important, however, are our company&#8217;s core principles<\/em>.\n\n<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Taking a holistic approach to ad management that begins and ends with content \u2014 and a support team standing by 24 hours a day to bolster your efforts however we can \u2014 sets us apart.<\/span>\n\n<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Content is a website&#8217;s lifeblood, which is why audience engagement and quality are

style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Beyond implementing and configuring your ads, Mediavine is constantly working on<\/span>\u00a0optimizations, help articles, site health checks, videos, marketing and other initiatives to help you grow.\n\n<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">AdSense and Amazon CPM Ads support, on the flip side, primarily revolve around forums, help topics and generic tools. Worlds apart from the comprehensive approach we offer.<\/span>\n\n<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><em>Mediavine is not an ad network.<\/em> <\/span>\n\n<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">With the
