Is it possible to have a website that is owned by you as a individual and not as an company to accept paid ads from advertisers? In the form of a text link or banner? Would a company be interested if the website is interesting enough of course to implement direct advertising on your site and not through PPC programs if you don't run the website under a business form? Does this happen frequently? Or are companies reluctant to buy advertising space from websites that are not runned under a businessform such as a Inc, or Ltd? I would be very much interested in your experiences or what you know from other peoples experiences. Thanks guys.
I'm pretty sure a large chunk of advertising space is sold by individuals who aren't any serious business entity. Text links are often sold independent of PPC programs, especially for SERPs/PR purposes, where the advertiser doesn't care too much about the direct natural traffic, but the SE advantage instead. I don't know how frequently it happens, but I do remember a time when PPC/Advertising networks didn't exist or weren't very popular.
Thanks for your reply Blitz. After some browsing and keeping the ad thing in the back of my mind regarding advertisers and non-business entities i noticed as you say a fair share of the ones i encountered had their domain registered under a personal name. So i guess this wouldn't have to be a problem for most of the advertisers.
