Glossary of monetization terms.
Twelve definitions that cover 95% of what creators argue about in payout groups.
CPM (Cost Per Mille)
What a network pays per 1,000 monetized events. In link sharing the event is a verified unique view. See the CPM explained guide.
Verified unique view
A real visitor to your playlist page, deduplicated per IP in a 24-hour window and screened for bot signals. Only verified views earn.
Deduplication window
The rolling 24-hour period during which the same visitor on the same playlist counts once. Re-arms daily - rewatch traffic keeps paying.
Playlist funnel
Bundling every episode on one fast numbered page so viewers finish the series. Learn how it works.
Native ad slots
Tasteful placements you curate - never popunders, redirects or captchas.
Effective CPM
Your real payout divided by real verified impressions. The only number worth comparing.
Withdrawal threshold
Balance you must cross before requesting a payout. LinkShare: ₹850 via UPI.
UPI
India’s instant bank-transfer rail. Every LinkShare payout is INR to your UPI ID.
DMCA counter-notice
Your response documenting rights to cited content; on valid proof we restore the item to its regular slot.
Anti-bot shield
Automatic screening that filters headless browsers, datacenter traffic and scripted floods before they hit your ledger.
Adblock session
A visitor whose full ad-blocking stops the page from counting that impression; the viewer still sees your content normally.
Inventory tier
A rate schedule that pays your first 1,000 views at one number and collapses the rest. Does not exist on LinkShare.
