The first point to remember is CPM. Advertising media have various modules like CPM, CPC, CPL, CPA.

Let us know some brief information about the above.

CPM - Stands for Cost per Mile - (Or) Cost Per 1000 Ad Impressions.

CPC - Stands for Cost Per Click - You get paid every time when User clicks on your Ad.

CPL - Stands for Cost Per Lead - You get paid every time when User Signup using your links.

CPA - Stands for Cost Per Action - You get paid every time when User Completes Action like Making Sale or Purchase.

What is CPM in the Advertising Module?

" CPM is an Advertising Module that Networks with Ad Impressions. CPM Stands for Cost Per Mile means Cost Per 1000 ad Impressions. This is the most popular Bid type next to CPC. The CPM process is so simple. Advertise Bid on Adspace as per Ad Impressions."

Let us take an example, Suppose your website generating 1000 views a day and you place 3 ads on a page.

So Total impressions = Pageviews x Ad units

                                       =1000x 3 is 3000 impressions

Now suppose your website generating 50% Organic traffic and rest from other sources.  We will make the CPM will be $1.00 (thousand impressions)

Your Earnings: CPM x impressions.

                              0.001x3000 = $3/ day

We will add some more earnings i.e. Clicks. Yes, now let us assume your website generates 10 clicks on ads per day and CPC ( Cost Per Click ) is 0.01 = $0.10 and conversions will be $1 so you get at least $1.1 a day. 

Total earnings : $3+$1.1= $4.1 on average.

Note: Conversions mean when user signups, buy or make a payment on the advertiser site.

So now lets us get in the Ad Networks that satisfy the above conversions.

Here I am not including Major ad networks like Adsense, because they are a bit difficult to get approved.
