I know this has been discussed several times, but since rates keep changing, I thought I'd ask again and get the latest views.

Who should I use after Casale and Fastclick for leaderboards and med. rectangles on an entertainment site? Keep in mind that bluetime isn't currently accepting new publishers.

how many levels does one need? Sry, if that gets off topic :)

Good question! :) I'm not sure... So far I'm burning through Casale and Fastclick and still have some defaults left over everyday, so I guess I need three for now, and maybe more as my site continues to grow.

I'd be interested in hearing how many levels some of the heavy hitters use.

Have you considered selling ads yourself to fill the gaps?

Not really. I guess I figured that I couldn't get enough more than what the ad networks pay to make it worth the time.

Have any of you been successful doing this?

I used to sell my own ads on my metal site; it paid for the server each month. But then again, no ad networks would take me so I had no choice :)

I use FastClick > Burst

I haven't needed a third tier

I cant use fastclick for my leaderboard since i have no way to only display the 728x90's. i use casale as my primary and fastclick as my default, and azoogle as a default to that.

I'm using FastClick with Amazon.com as a default, but FastClick has so much inventory right now that my Amazon.com ad has not shown in months.
