I have probably found one of the most untapped and easy to use PPC platforms on the web. Its called Yahoo Stream Ads. Yahoo stream ads are shown on the Yahoo.com articles and homepage. I have built easy email lists of people with stream ads and are VERY porfitable. One thing thats different is that there isn't keyword targeting, it's like pasting and pressing go. Reminds me of Adwords in the old days! -Cheers P.S.- This article is shows you a more in depth view: http://blitzmetrics.com/ever-try-yahoo-stream-ads-heres-what-happened-in-our-test/
Thanks for the info. I know Yahoo has a search agreement with Bing... Is this product separate from Bing Ads?
Hmm, Actually, it belongs to Yahoo! Search Engine under advertorial network. On a daily basis, new ads will be rolled out and IMers will bid for specific targeting ads to market to audiences. The good news is that it functions like G network adwords and has a relatively targeted niche since big G has been filled with IMers, H**ckers, Spam*ers and newbies. , Commoner
Enlighten us here! First you say that they don't target keywords, and you come back and say that you can target by keyword. Which is it, one or the other?
Oh yes yes! Ok, first I have been using this platform on and off and the conversions are beautiful! (couldn't think of another word) I didn't notice but they have changed "stream ads" to "Yahoo Gemini" for mobile and for desktop is just "Native". http://www.adweek.com/news/technology/yahoos-gemini-pairs-native-ads-and-mobile-search-155825 Its native and mobile advertising on Yahoos homepage! This platform is great because you can get your ad in front of more qualified people who are reading articles or comments on the yahoo main webpage. This is not search marketing. Bing and yahoo are paired up for search. Since it's new, the targeting is basic keyword targeting.

They've overspent my budget a bunch of times but gave me free clicks lol If you sign up I think they give you $50 free credit.
