adsense competition? adsonar? I've been looking into and trying out adsense competition (google has had that monopoly quite long enough).... anyone know of any that work?
Clicksor was not impressive. Bidclix was not so good. A few other programs were equally unimpressive.
However, I saw some rave reviews for Adsonar (although everyone says they pay less than adsense - surprise!). I *think* Adsonar is essentially overture's answer to adsense.... I have high hopes for it - has anyone tried it? Has it worked well? I guees I'll see what happens and let everyone know.
It's just so odd that there just aren't good competitors to adsense and adwords (overture precision match is pretty good thus far, but i haven't fully tested them out yet).
Who knows. Not me. We never lost control. Cheers,
John

not I. but I do know of another called "AdHearus.com" that I use. They pay about 25-30% more than Adsense too.
worth a look at least. (If you signup with Adhearus, please use me as the referal
)

thats odd 1rr1, I cant blame adhearus for their customers ad tastes..but the click through rate was roughly double that of Adsense for me.
weird.

Well, For a while my google adsense revenue was really small, but its growing at a rapid rate now since it seems like the image ads, have boosted CTR.

Question, are you getting more clicks on banner or text ads only?
