I think thewy suck, not for their CPC, but because their ads look awful... just try it and you'll see..
i drop them because of there lower click rate... i am sure with there click rates it will take 10 years or more for me to reach there payout level....
I use them and I've never had any great success. I once got a 50 cent click, but most come in around 1 cent. They are also very strict about which clicks they filter - I'm losing about 10% of my clicks this way.
*wrinkles nose* sometimes you have to wonder what people who create such programs are thinking. Ugly ads and lots of click loss? who wants to work for them?
I have heard a few positives about them - just not my experience. Someone told me they worked well on proxies.
oxado re-brokers their PPC ads from other PPC networks. More or less just a middle man of PPC ads taking a cut while everyone else does the work for them. Might as well just use adsense. I know adbrite is mostly google ads fed through their system. The same ad on adsense on one of my sites paid $0.12 a click, but on adbrite it was paying only $0.04. So its obvious they are middle men now too. Not a correct way to put it, but thats basically whats going on with a lot of these 2nd-hand PPC networks.
I believe they state on their site they pull data from many different sources, so at least they are up front about it. Not paying by Paypal is the biggest issue they have, as well as a high min. payout. They really need to get their crap in order if they want to compete with the big guys.
Yes oxado is up front and do state they pull feeds from other PPC networks, which is the very point I'm trying to make here with this question: Why would you use a PPC website that takes profit from you and not use the original source such as google and take 100% of the profit? Might as well eliminate the middleman where ever you can. Think about it, why start a website to earn adsense income when you can just start a PPC network and take profits from the naive publishers that join and earn you free money. Exactly what oxado is doing. Bidvertiser and adbrite both do the same. Adbrite started up as their own network, but now states it in their terms and made the announcement public in late '06 that they were now re-brokering adsense ads into publishers widgets. Only reason I can think of that one would do this on purpose is to go with a network that is a little bit more friendly as google bans a lot of publishers.
Not quite. Ever trying getting Yahoo! ads directly? For most publishers it's not possible, but we provide those for many countries. Also, we incorporate many different types of ads (text and graphical, CPM, CPC, CPA...) from many different sources, and our engines: - uses sources specific to each country - does keyword targeting for sources that don't provide it (most of them) - selects the ads to optimize the revenue. And our share is quite reasonable, and with the volume we make with some partners and the higher revenue share they provide us, you actually often end up getting the same overall share as if you worked with those networks directly (or even more). Obviously YMMV (depending on the countries your visitors come from, the topics of your sites, etc.), but some publishers get pretty nice payments every month (i.e. more than 10 000 euros a month), so it can't be that bad, can it?

I signed up with them but never put their code... No idea about success with it.. Do they help selling fixed price link/banner ads ?
