Exactly. As others have said, it depends on the niche. I have done well with Adbrite on sites with and without volume. Adsense, I have done ok. But I get paid more on blogs and sites of very low volume, then I do my heavy hitters. So I have all but removed it from any site I have with any kind of decent traffic. I would get some nice click throughs daily on my heavier traffic sites, but who cares if they pay a cent a click through. So I have switched up some options until I get some more of my sites online and add in my own ad network.
If it is to broken don't fix it. Adsense works great for me no reason to look in to anything else at this time
Adbrite was seriously a waste of my time. All in all, overtime I started using them less and actually requested my account be deactivated. Adwords just seems more efficient and easy to use, no hidden fees and surprises!
Yeah, but with AdBrite, you can insert your Adsense code and they will display Adsense if AdBrite's cpc is lower than a number you specify. The only real problem I have with AdBrite is that I can't ban a site from being in my advertising.
AdBrite is in no way close to adsense. AdBrite has reputation ripping off people delivering wrong network traffic. I have really bad experience with AdBrite.
