    I have used Google Adwords and Overture but not MSN. I like both of them as well.

    I've tried Google and Overture / Yahoo. Google was mildly effective. Yahoo was a joke. I never got many clicks and when I did they never converted.

    Take care,

    Brian

    Yahoo can be great or awful, depends on a ton of factors, make sure to opt out of content with them which many fail to do.

    Google search is awesome, but difficult to get running efficiently unless you already know what you are doing.

    MSN is a walk in the park, except the interface is dificult. Lots of cheap keywords with good conversions. Problem is you can never get as much traffic as you would like.

    Everything else is anywhere from bad to fraudulent. Either bad traffic, no traffic, or phantom traffic - or some combination of all 3.

    MSN was the best value up until a few months ago. I used to be able to bid on more general keywords on MSN because they were cheaper than Adwords or YSM. But now MSN has sold their soul to the MFA spammers and the price for clicks has gone up.

    I generally convert 5-6% of my clicks, and this number holds for all of the big 3.

    I personally like the Adwords interface and the way the Adwords system works the best.

    Yahoo is cumbersome though I haven't tried Panama yet.

    MSN is the worst of all in my opinion - very slow and little traffic. Maybe it's because I'm using a Mac.. :)

    I haven't had that problem with sponsored searches, but I had a problem with content matches.
