Adsense Rival Microsoft PubCenter is open for signup (US only*sniff*)

I'll wait until they have more advertisers before I try them out.

 

I have been in the beta for about six months and the ads look great but do not match content. Not even close. Have a page about plumbing and you get ads about beauty supplies. CTR is terrible but they sure look pretty

 

^^ Seems like the same problem with every other ad networks. They need more advertisers and need to open up to Internationl publishers if they want to give Google some serious competition.

 

Alternatives are always good as that may cause google to come off of their high horse .... I'm excited and just submitted my app.

 

Lets hope they fix that sooner than later

 

Probably there's not enough advertisers at the moment. Hopefully it will be better once it is released.

 

4 times more $$$...cool...publisher restriction CAN be bypassed...it's not difficult

 

You managed to misspell Indian and AdSense in the same post. Small wonder you're fed up with them; your level of literacy isn't likely to produce a decent income from US/UK traffic. I'm really not trying to be an ass here, just stating the truth. Take it for what it's worth.

 

Well hopefully they will let us from the land down under join up. Certainly worth trying

 

I hope worldwide publisher can sign up soon, not just U.S. publisher

 

Boooooooooooooooooooo shit
it is also only for US
Where yahoo and MSN come in India?

 

WI don't believe MS can match or be a rival to Google

 

I'm happy that MS is keeping registration to the US. I'm not trying to offend anyone but website quality really drops off once you go out of the primarily English language market. That's likely the reason that MS is limiting sign-up's to the US. If I'm going to purchase advertising, I certainly don't want my website on sites that display poor English usage.

If I was MS, I would open registration up to UK residents and Australian residents as well. By only allowing publishers from English speaking countries, advertisers are going to be more willing to spend their money on advertising and will offer more per click.

 

I make a nice income from adsense, but I am really glad to see this. Everyone with an adsense account in the US should signup ASAP.

Signed up, hoping I get in

 

That article is full of grammar, punctuation and spelling errors!

 

I concur and would dearly love to see some stiff competition for AdSense, but how could this new platform possibly pay anything close to AdSense?

 

Signed up and waiting

 

I got approved with my main site but am waiting to hear more results of the payout vs. adsense I make pretty good money from adsense and do not want to lose a month or so in income from testing

 

Why yahoo and msn dont cares for international publishers?
