Are there any ad networks that don't track the people looking at your site? That would be a valuable feature to me.
The only problem I would see with that is that if a user already converted by clicking the ad, he would continue to see the same ad when he is on your site again. You're no longer able to extract more $ from that user.

The best ads for publishers and users are ones that are relevant. If you want to display something that is irrelevant to the user and ineffective for the advertiser, you might as well not display ads at all and avoid annoying your users.
Todd from @BuySellAds here. An ideal setup is one in which you utilize about a handful of different companies in the "Tier 2" position. Probably no more than a handful though, because after that it gets hard to manage and rather convoluted. Tier 1 is your directly sold ads (stuff you sell on your own directly to an advertiser or through a company like BuySellAds). Tier 2 is where the AdSense's of the world will live.…

What if they show ads based on the focus of the site instead of information about the user?
Honestly, none of that. Create your own "ad network". Basically, figure out the theme of your blog and what kind of people it attracts and then find affiliate programs for that. For example. Let's say your tutorials are for developers. What do developers need? * development tools * hosting * further courses/learning That will yield a pretty good list of affiliates that will convert well such as: * New Relic * Digital…

Thanks Todd. Out of curiosity, how big do you have to be for Rubicon Project and PubMatic, in terms of pageviews/mo?
