Mai Hang Mai Hang | content creator, SEO-er, website trader Hello, my friends. I’m Mai Hang — a website trader from Vietnam. I’m working in banking, but content creation and SEO are a hobby of mine outside of work hours. I love writing and sharing my finance, stocks, and investing knowledge I usually share via Facebook, Instagram, Tiktok, and Youtube. I work together with my husband. We first met in August 2020, when I was selling a Facebook page with almost 80k followers. At that time, I was a writer of small stories about life in Vietnam and wanted to switch to articles in the field of banking and finance. He bought and shared about the work of a website trader and asked me about cooperation. I could experience writing on a variety of topics, so I agreed. We worked together, and our love blossomed from there. After 3 years, I agreed to his marriage proposal, and our wedding had just been held on June 11, 2023. Talking about my husband, he is a quiet programmer, a bit shy, but always taking care of me. He loves programming so much that he sometimes doesn’t eat all day to complete the feature. He spends a lot of time self-learning about the web, mobile, IoT, and AI/ML. His main job is not as a programmer but as a network engineer for Viettel — a leading technology company in Vietnam. My husband and I have worked in the website trading market for 3 years. We have discussed with the owners of interesting websites in Vietnam, Thailand, Taiwan, China, India, etc., to make offers to buy them. My husband will work to improve IT aspects, such as: developing new features; redesigning the website UI/UX; optimizing resources, performance; etc. Meanwhile, I work as a content creator and SEOer to improve impressions (more than 30-50%). After 2 months or a bit more time, the websites become better and attract more traffic, and we sell at higher prices to investors who want to earn money from them. We have a list of private clients from China, Thailand, Singapore, and Korea who always ask for new websites weekly. Not just our story We were not aware of the benefits of joining ad networks for a long time as we were engaged in this occupation. Everything changed when we had two websites that could not find buyers. We kept and operated them for 6 months (posting new articles daily, maintaining servers, etc.) with only income from Google Adsense. As website traders, we know that successful business means that we can sell websites in the short term. So we needed to hang more ads to win in these businesses, but where could we get them? Then we found and tried some global ads platforms which are common in my country and drew the following weak points that we disliked: It took a lot of time to approve websites. We had to spend more than 1 day for the website to be approved. Sometimes, we chose the wrong category and needed to submit it again. Therefore, the actual approval time was even longer. The limited number of websites. As a website trader, I often buy and sell many websites. I have to create multiple publisher accounts. Limits make it difficult for me to manage all websites and get the minimum payment amount for each account. No support for the payment methods we needed. Most platforms did not offer the payment method that we expected. The available payment methods in my country are Paypal and some other ones, unsupported by platforms. So I can receive money via Paypal, but the USD-VND exchange rate is very low compared to the market. Therefore, I prefer to choose USDT (and sell it on Binance to VND) as my primary payment method. Figures first My husband first saw Adsterra on the Vietnamese MMO forum. A member posted a thread to share his income with Adsterra to attract others to register via his referral link. I asked him about the approval process and received a good answer: it’s automatic and not limited. It seemed to be suitable for our context. So the cooperation with Adsterra had been started. We have been working for 6 months and received over 33k US$ when I wrote this story. Our income from Adsterra Our income from Adsterra Why do we love working with Adsterra Our difference from most publishers is that we have been hanging Adsterra’s ads on around 100 websites. These websites have above 100k traffic per month in various categories: news, food reviews, car reviews, travel, dictionaries, horoscopes, etc. This gives us more perspectives and experiences.

Easily managing 100 websites! Easily managing 100 websites! Many ad formats to choose from We are hanging 9 different types of ads on our websites: Popunder, Social bar, Native banner, and fixed-size banners. Each ad needs to be compatible with the content and design of the website to bring the most interaction. I advise you to carefully read the ad’s description and see the available demo to choose ad types and placements. For example, a native banner can be placed on the sidebar (vertical) or at the top or bottom of the article (horizontal). For unclear matters, feel free to consult your account manager before customizing the ads. Adsterra’s tip: use the guides to learn more about our ad types and use them wisely and with maximum profit. Also, be sure to read the instructions for installing the advertising code (they are available when generating the code itself). Native banner on our website Native banner on our website JOIN ADSTERRA
