    Are there some good PPC to advertise on?
    I currently participate with Adwords, overture, kanoodle, and a few others that went out of bussiness or sold out to Google and lost my money.
    Another forum I read a lot deletes posts about some of the other ppc engines.

    I do just overture and google, and truthfully i really dont see much from overture. Google IMO is the only one really worthwhile.

    I would have to second that. I've played around with just about every PPC out there, and Google Adwords is the only one that's consistently brought me traffic - traffic that has a consistent conversion %.

    I would AVOID looksmart.

    I am sure others have better experiences, but for us, they delivered little real traffic, and periodically drained our account with massive amounts of bogus traffic. They refused to investigate, and would not issue a credit for any of the fake traffic.

    AdWords has been our best performer...

    One of our partner sites has advertised in numerous different ways. Spents thousands to advertise, and came to the conclusion that Google Adwords is the only PPC that drives consistent worthwhile traffic. I imagine the reason is that most of the traffic they drive is through their search engine and AskJeeves search engine.

    I've been running overture for a new site I bought and haven't seen much. I'm going to switch to G next month if thinks don't improve.

    I'll also say that getting ads approved by overture is a pain but their phone support is pretty decent.

    Oh my god, I can't believe that I actually said that...

    Ignore my post above - Mirago isn't that great.

    Has anyone used the new Ask Jeeves PPC campaign tools yet? My ads are still running there through my Google PPC but wanted to know if anyone has done both. It seems they are running in tandem until AJ has enough inventory filled. Just curious if anyone has seen direct results for their campaigns yet.

    Looks like another directory to me. Is there some PPC marketing element I'm missing?

    what is the point in steering away from Google or Yahoo/MSN engines?? they are recieving more than 88% of all searches........ my suggestion is to stick with Yahoo SM (Overture) or Google.

    also the company I work for now has an extended distribution ppc network offering which includes the above. Makes sense to me....

    if you want results..... go to where the traffic goes.

    clicksor.com isnt worth it not much of a conversion rate stick with google and is by far the best. Overture i would rate sencond best.
