Yes, thanks very much for this awesome list! I haven’t heard of chitika or adbrite, but now I’m inspired to install OpenX and try these out against my adsense revenue.

Before now I was using AdSense and AdBrite together. AdSense isn’t clicked much, although every click brings more money than a month of AdBrite’s per-impressions system. At least in AdBrite, every day you login the sum increases.

After you told that BuySellAds now accept all kinds of sites again, I tried it out again (I was denied in the past), and wow, I indeed got approved. Now to find advertisers, hehe ^^;;

If to speak only about how I feel using these systems, BuySellAds would go on place #1. It is designed very well in matters of aesthetics and usability.

BSA + AdSense + Advertisers approaching via contact form

I have BSA about 3 months on my blog, but managed to sell only 2 adspots. The first one didn’t renew it the next month but he approached me via contact form for a different kind of advertisement (text link). The second one was my friend So i earned about $25 from BSA and $80 from direct approach.

AdSense made me, let me check… $20.78, almost like BSA It would be more but i removed the ads a month ago and since then i only have one little image ad at end of the posts.

It’s strange that BSA isn’t better, i had approx 50K impressions monthly (lower now because i’m low on new content, from January posts are gonna be much more frequent), but i’m hoping that 2010 will be the year i will start earning some decent amount from BSA.

Thank you for this nice list of ad network. I am using only Chitika, but not earning good.

I am just trying to sell private ads on my blog. Most of ad network do not accept my blogspot blog.

A good list I must say. However I would like to mention infolinks for text ads. I have tried Kontera and it is simply not worth trying. Infolinks works much better and everyone should give it a shot.

Wish you all a very happy and prosperous year (read a year with good ad revenue) 2010

Hi!
Thanks for this post.
I’m using ValueClickMedia (sinse september 2008) and it is a very good ad network…
I advise you to try it!

IMO Bidvertiser, Tribal fusion, Smowtion also works great ..

Yup, definitely stay away from selling text links – either directly or through a network. Sad, but if you want Google traffic, gotta play by their rules.

As for other forms of advertising – different things work for different people and they’re not necessarily mutually exclusive either.

Hi All,

I found this page (kinda by accident) and love all the input. My story is slightly different. I actually worked in SEO for a major agency and quit my job because my affiliate revenue allowed me to. Adsense makes me about $750 per month. I get about 30k pageviews per month but my traffic is very targeted. The rest of the money I make is through selling products via Commission Junction, Shareasale, and Linkshare.

I can tell you all one thing; it takes time. My main blog has over 1,000 posts which is enough for me to make $100 in revenue without even adding a new post. I’m not bragging but trying to give you all some encouragement.

There are lots of avenues to provide value and make money. I’ve used YieldBuild and am very happy with the results. Also, instead of using OpenX I’ve created my own way to rotate ads by using Adify.

eBay won’t allow me to sign up, so if anyone knows how to make that happen I’d love to find out. Otherwise, I’m going to try ValueClick and see if they do anything for me.

I am using Infolinks in my blog. Does that comes under Text Link Ads ? If so, will I lose my PR by using it ? If not, what is the difference between Contextual In-Text Ads and Text Link Ads ?

I think adsense is the best cpc in the world.
