    I came across one new adsense alternative in my mail. They are providing contextual ads like adsense for ebay products. Can any one tried this adsense alternative? its http://www.Auctionads.com . I am looking for everyone's comments on this.

    It will not compete against adsense.....coz it will display only the auctions related to your keyword......it is not suitable for everysite...

    They only pay when your referrer BIN an item at ebay or wins a bid. It is owned by same people at Text Link Ads (I think).

    Sufi read it care fully action is defined as if some one win the bid , or directly buy item or register himself as a user , so i don't think so that in adsense we face such agreement . adsense pay you for clicks not this one . :)

    Interesting, but not an adsense alternative thats for sure. Looks like a nice CPA program though..I wonder what the payouts are like...

    According to their own FAQ yest you can as they are not contextual advertisers.

    Incidentally that fact alone means that they cannot be an Adsense alternative :)

    I also got the email from TLA saying that I was 'pre-approved' or something.
    Still considering if it is worth it.

    One good thing about AuctionAds, is that they are 'geo-targeted' - i.e. visitors see eBay ads for their own country.

    Cryo.
