Normally I recommend affiliate networks.  Today I’m advising you to stay away from one.  For 10 months I’ve run ads from Bidvertiser.  Rarely on Turnipofpower.com, but always at least one ad on my tech blog Zapyx.com.  It took 10 months, but finally I reached the $10 in clicks mark.  Over that time I’ve also sent [...]

For those hesitating on signing up for performancing ads because they thought their platform wasn’t supported, now is your chance!  By giving blog publishers the option of inserting javascript code instead of using a WordPress plugin or PHP code, almost all blogs are supported. How to install the javascript code: Add the following code to your [...]

Ever see a great affiliate offer but it was unrelated to your niche?  This tutorial will show you how to run your own affiliate ads over ad networks like Project Wonderful and Adtoll by using a redirect page.   Normally this is difficult because the affiliate network’s URL often contains weird characters like question marks that the ad [...]

Performancing Ads has certainly paid off for several of the people who signed up through my site. I have to say I’m surprised. I expected one or two high traffic sites to sell ads, but not as many as my stats show.  Seven people who joined from my site have now sold ad space on their sites.  [...]

Performancing Ads is a new advertising network from SplashPress Media.  It works like a cross between an Ad server like Project Wonderful and a blog link exchange.  Using a credit system and 125×125 ads, it reminded me of Entrecard, only without the social networking part.   Bottom line: Both systems work very well together, as the page [...]

Before Alexa’s recent change, people complained their ranking numbers were meaningless.  By counting the number of people who visited a site using the Alexa toolbar, they came up with a number.  The fact that the only users who installed the toolbar tended to be webmasters was besides the point.  Now Alexa has changed their algorithm, making [...]

While checking out the Entrecard competition last night, I came across a very interesting article on the Atniz.com website on how to Block Ads and Earn More.  The theory behind it is to not allow Google AdSense to show ads for spammy sites and sites that pay little per click.  The company providing this service [...]

For the second consecutive month Clickbooth was my top performing affiliate ad.  While I made more money setting up WordPress for free and receiving the commission from Bluehost in return as payment, that was unrelated to actual ad clicks.  I also made a substantial amount selling Entrecard credits back to Entrecard.  Both these revenue sources are excluded from the [...]

J-Donuts is a frequent poster to the Entrecard forums and always says silly things.  Today was no different when he ranted “that way I can go powerdropping to my hearts content without affecting someone else’s AdSense CTR”.  What he meant is that CTR is one aspect taken into consideration of Google Adsense’s Smart Pricing.  Smart Pricing is when Google [...]

One month ago I reviewed the Clickbooth Network and figured it was about time to report on the results.  For thirty days I ran a 460×80 banner under the first post of my site and a rotating 125×125 ad next to my Entrecard.   The ads were shown 18,875 times.  Total number of clicks was 685.  Total number [...]
