Back in FEB when everything went south I abandoned nearly all YPN back to Adsense. Was doing pretty well with YPN until that point. The ad targeting was off but the payout per click was so high it washed in most niches I was working. Have experimented off and on since then. Today tried again to see if anything had improved. Nada. In one major niche I work (Highly populated with Advertisers) YPN is displaying ads that have nothing to do with the niche at all. And I'm not talking about the default ads. I'm talking about ads that display after the YPN bot has crawled. And the Ad targeting feature doesn't make any difference, never has for me. Really would like to see them "fix" YPN some day.
Don't know what you are talking about.. I have made over $100,000 with YPN and it is doing amazing. The targeting is dead on and the pay per click KILLS google adsense, plus the support is amazing. Looks like there are a ton of YPN haters because they can't get in, or don't know how to use it.
I completely agree with you. YPN needs to fix their Ad targeting or just forget ever coming out of Beta.
Actually I do have a YPN account and the reason I use adsense mostly is the terrible relevancy of the YPN ads. Go to www.a2zseo.com to see what I am talking about.
