Clicksor has grown organically in the last few years with a larger number of publishers and advertisers on base.

#4. Adnety
I recently came across Adnety and was contacted by their representative on my blog. With an Alexa rank, little under 30,000, this ad network seems to be legit. However, the offerings from this network is still under question since I haven’t explored their interface. What seems from a glance is, that they do accept adult traffic and blogs.

There is no minimum traffic requirement for Adnety. Once you submit a site, it is queued for approval and once approved, you can use the ad tags.
#5. Promoter
This is perhaps the only other site which is listed in top 1000 alexa rank after popads. It seems to be more of a CPA ad network than CPM network. However,they seem to be reliable and worth a try. There are a lot of ad formats which you can try and pop-unders and pop-ups are certainly one of their best payment ad units.
#6. Adsterra
I haven’t used adsterra network but heard good reviews about them. With an Alexa rank of 19,000 they might be legit. However, few publishers have reported low earnings with Adsterra too. So it is completely upto you to test this ad network. They are a Russia based network had have good demand for Asian traffic.
#7. Infinity Ads
I used infinity ads on one of my blog back in 2011. They provide decent rates for their pop-unders and interstitials. Though they are not a very popular ad network like popads.net but the pay rate is good and can be recommended. They have a minimum payout of $3 and the payment is processed weekly, so you can always give a try!
#8. Ad-Maven
This is an Israeli based pop-under ad network which provides options to add interstitials, pop-under etc. We have tested this network and didn’t found the CPM rates to be good, and thus had to scape it off after sending them about 20,000 impressions. You may however try this network for a day or two and see if it fits well with your traffic.
