Yahoo Publisher versus Google Adsense



It's been a while since I've blogged, just to give you guys some clue about what's been going on in my life is pretty much projects after projects. I've personally acquired a few sites recently and I thought it be a good idea to kind of test and play around with it. Therefore I have been spending quite a bit of time on them as well as implementing some of the things that I've learned over time.

I thought I share with you guys something that I hear a lot of debates and buzz about and that is the whole ordeal with Yahoo Publisher versus Google Adsense. It's really not that complicated actually, basically Yahoo Publisher is Yahoo's version of Adsense to really sum it up. You can check out my video today to see some of what I think and feel about both Google Adsense and Yahoo Publisher but if you don't feel like watching me talk through Youtube, read on.

Google Adsense is undoubtedly the number one advertiser over the internet. No one will dispute its' presence and influence throughout the whole advertising industry. In terms of pay, they fluctuates upon the topic that you blog or write about and obviously the more popular topic will get you less click per advertisement versus a topic hardly spoken a higher share of click per advertisement or CPA. The real advantage of Google Adsense is their variety of ads that are available for the public to use including text ads which have yet to be seen from their competitors surprisingly. The idea is not unique that it's been around for some time, but it's success is undoubtedly indisputable. Most people still uses Adsense as their primary source of advertising and if you're looking for something that's proven for many as well as its availability of help out there, then Adsense is the way to go.

Yahoo Publisher is a little bit different to the extent that they're one of the newest advertisers on the block. The general format is actually very similar to Google Adsense in what they have to offer. The commonly used leader boards, box, etc are just some of things that's available with Yahoo Publisher. Yahoo Publisher does in many cases pay a lot higher then Google Adsense when it comes down to advertising similar topics. Yahoo publisher does however offer targeted ads. What this means is that you can set it where only a certain type of ads show up in your site. From my personal experience however I don't find this functionality to be quite useful for the topic which I place it with. This could be due to the age of Yahoo Publisher's existence as well as its awareness around the web.

In conclusion, I would say if you know what optimal ad placements to maintain the high CPA which involves ads that Yahoo Publisher has to offer then go with Yahoo Publisher by all means to maximize your earnings. However, if you are looking for something solid which many others do blog and talk about at a regular basis then stick with Google Adsense. It'll take time but take some time and test them out to see which one out of the two makes you the most money is how you make money smart. Last but not least, you can use only one of the two advertisers between Yahoo Publisher or Google Adsense. It's against their TOS and the reason and logic behind them is simple, they are competitors against one another! -Swapw

* Reviewing each other through Reviewback (1:25 - 1:50)

* Reviewback explained (1:51 - 3:16)

* Wrap up (3:17 - 3:32)



Okay, for those of you that have been following my blog you would understand that a lot of times I stress on the importance of writing reviews and content to make money. If you have missed it, here are some links of my previous posts: Blogitive, Payperpost, Blogsvertise, etc.

Now, reviewing advertisers are fun and easy but have you had a chance to really think about possibilities of reviewing one another as bloggers? I believe it's an area that has yet to be tapped and I believe there are plenty of areas for growth both for an increase in traffic as well as exposures specifically in the blogosphere. Through my video today you will find out about Reviewback and my take on its ideas as very unique and possibly something huge.

For those of you that have already watched the video, you will know that this idea is huge. Not only will you get the "blogger" of whom you are doing the review to look at your blog, you would also get some of their readers to come visit you. This is NOT to even mention a free link exchange as you link each other. This could be something big and since I don't want to miss any of the big opportunities I would recommend the same for you to use readers and rake in some good Adsense, Affiliate, cash!

In case you have missed the link, here's the link to Reviewback: Here!

Blogitive Directory Network announced

* Blogitive explored (0:22 - 0:40)

* Blogitive's new program (0:41 - 3:27)

* Wrap up (3:28 - 3:55)






Here's the direct tutorial from Blogitive, enjoy.

Http://my.blogitive.com/screencasts/directory_tutorial

Like many similar network that I've introduced in the past such as Payperpost, Blogsvertise, and Smorty; Blogitive is just another great way to make money by providing advertisers with a review in your blog. Blogitive however is taking some additional steps to shift away from its fierce competition, and that is by incorporating a newly announced Directory Network recently to provide bloggers an additional way to make money which I do talk in depth in my video blog today.

Although the Blogitive Directory Network does seem to be a promising solution for Wordpress users and web site owners but for the rest of us who uses free blogger sites this solution does not seem to geared toward our side of the market. However, we are still qualified to do the traditional reviews for advertisers through Blogitive.

For Wordpress users it is a very easy and free solution to monetize without doing much, yes literally without doing anything at all. The basic concept of Blogitive Directory Network revolves around the idea that advertisers would pay for links toward Wordpress bloggers on their web site in an annual basis. Bloggers would get to set their own price and adjust them as they wish once a year. It is suggested by Blogitive that links should be priced initially at around $10 per year since this program has just being launched however that is not to say that if your blog has a higher traffic of visitors that you should settle less. How the profit split is simple, 85% for the blogger and 15% for Blogitive. Since Blogitive has only launched this program officially by providing users with offers this week, it is still young so be sure to register yourself with Blogitive if you have a Wordpress blog so you can be the first ones to be reviewed by the advertisers. Competition with other bloggers would makes your blog harder to be seen as the time goes with the program so be sure to take advatange of it as soon as possible.

Reviewme, a blogger's authority to make money





Reviewme is true a blogger's authority to make money. Why? Because Reviewme has one of the highest payout rate in the industry for bloggers along with its effectiveness to deliver quality reviews. Each review requested from advertisers for bloggers would cost them a minimum of $40. That's a lot of money for a simple review! From programs that I have introduced in the past such as Blogsvertise or Smorty, Reviewme pays close to double or triple the amount of its competitors.

Although Reviewme has a more tedious selection process in their acceptance in blogs as stated in my video with a higher requirement of Technorati, Alexa, and RSS feed rank, it has become almost a status symbol once you have been accepted. Many well known bloggers such as Johnchow and Maki uses reviewme and it definitely provides Reviewme with a lot of creditabiltiy. Obviously they've also offer great features for bloggers such as assignment notification and a choice of accepting the assignment or rejecting it. Unless you are a newbie in blogging, Reviewme is definitely something worth looking into. Now, that's not to say that you should abandon other companies such as Blogsvertise or Smorty because to make money smart you always have to diversify yourself so you don't run into trouble when one doesn't work out.
