		<description><![CDATA[ADSDAQ is an ad network with an interesting twist. They ask you to set the CPM (cost per 1,000 impressions) rate that you want to receive and they pay you exactly that &#8211; and only that. Nothing more, nothing less. If they don&#8217;t have any ads to run where they can pay you that amount, [...]]]></description>

Earlier this month, we discussed floating defaults and floor CPMs and how can add more money to your bottom line. But, relying on them alone is relying on the practice of daisy chaining &#8211; or serving all ads that one ad network can serve and then defaulting [...]]]></description>

The default is an image or advertisement (often times this is code for another ad network) that you specify for them to [...]]]></description>
