Adsense alternatives

    Hi All,

    Can anyone recommend a suitable alternative to Adsense for contextual advertising for publishers?

    We've checked a few ones: Infolinks, Chitika etc - but need a different alternative - ideally something with better contextual targeting and more image display ads.

    In particular, we are looking for ad networks that can target India traffic.

    In addition, also looking for an ad network that can place pay-per-click ads we can place on a vacation rental site, e.g. we don't want to see competitive ads but something related to travel, insurances, loans and that kind of stuff.

    rgds,
    J

    Adbrite is doing good after the adsense, you may like this. Another best way is sell your place to direct advertiser but you have to find a good advertiser.

    You can try some other advertising programs, such as Chitika, but there is always ways to improve your AdSense performance.

    Have you tried image ads? AdSense for Search?

    Is your CTR too low? Have you worked on improving it, maybe highlighting the most important part of your sites to get more relevant ads? Did you try a different position for the ad units?

    There is always things to do.

    adbrite/clicksor and most of the interntional advertising networks require that most of your site visitors are from US/CA/AUS/UK so when you ask about networks that serve indian traffic then the well known networks are not for you, instead you need to check about networks using an indian search browser.

    Yes you absolutely right...but there are others one can use if ever slapped by Google. Like /bit.ly/qUKHid add the http in front and check that link. Create an account and start running ads on your site immediately. They great too.

    I agree.

    I just get my websites onto front page of Google for good keywords then sell or rent the website to someone who isn't on page 1 of Google for that keyword but would like to be!
