Is this a fair price?

[Byron]

I had my first advertiser contact me this week and offer me $13.33 CPM and offered to buy 90,000 impressions (which = $1200). Is this a fair price for a niche market advertising campaign? Since it was my first client, I readily agreed but I want to know if this is a fair price for future reference.

can't really tell if it's fair because the math is off above. 90 x 13.33 = $120 if that's what u meant that seems fair considering qauntity and rate.

fairhousing, Byron's math was in fact correct -- 90 x 13.33 = 1999.7 which can be rounded to $1200.

In response to Byron's query, I think $13.33 CPM is a good rate. I took a quick peek at your site and it seems to be nicely targetted, you might be able to get better CPMs in the future, but I wouldn't refuse any further $13.33 CPM offer

Yeah, congrats on your ad sale. Start out with this, then work you way up.

The best way to sell ads on your site is by having an online order form and accepting credit cards...this gets the impulse and immediate buyers.
