Switching to AdFirst almost doubled my ad revenue compared to AdSense. But equally important, AdFirst understand my need for ads that don't overwhelm my site, from reputable high-quality advertisers. They're quick to respond when I've a question or need help with implementation, and I have come to rely on their prompt monthly payments, on the dot on the last day of the month.

AdFirst stands out for their honest communication and reliable problem-solving. From day-to-day queries to optimizing our ad setup, their support and reliable reporting have made a genuine difference.

Marco Gandolfi, Group Editor

I enjoy working with AdFirst because they’re always responsive and friendly and take me and my business seriously although I'm not a massive client. Also, since the start they have repeatedly assisted me in areas that, strictly speaking, don’t form part of their remit.

We've worked with AdFirst for years now. eFestivals would not be around if it wasn't for their support and essential ad revenue funding the site. Running ads on our forum presents its own challenges which includes dealing with the occasional bad ad which is now a rare occurrence thanks to the protections in place. They've always gone the extra mile for us.
