We have a website that we are trying to monetize with ads. Google Adsense has been rejecting us due to Covid delays.

What are the best alternatives to Adsense? Has anyone done a proper study of CPM among the top ad networks? Everything I find online is so spammy and hard to ascertain legitimacy.

I'd suggest looking into niche ad networks like Carbon (https://www.carbonads.net/) for Developers / Designers. Their parent company BuySellAds is also quite large.

What are the other larger players (non-niche?)
