Do any PPC advertising use Paypal as payment

    Adwords doesn't use paypal and I don't have a credit card.

    Are there any similar programs that have good coverage and accept paypal?

    So, there are no other options to Adsense. I'd like another program that can get a lot of publicity and accept payments from paypal.

    Once I get a credit card I will consider switching back?

    Does Yahoo! ads or MSN ads accept paypal?

    Are there other companies?

    There are a lots that pay through paypal but these are all the 3rd tier ppc search engines that I would not really bother with as you are likely to get frauded out of your advertising money.

    Or you could just get the paypal debit card that withdraws from your paypal balance. It's free, you just have to have a business account. I use this for my Yahoo ads :)

    I think that debit card thing is just for the US.

    I have a business account and I needed one. I couldn't get one with PayPal so now I have the proper one with my business bank account.

    Oh that stinks. I have a business account though.

    I don't get why Yahoo or any PPC advertisers don't allow payments from paypal.

    I guess you can't have it always. It would be nice if they give out debit cards to internationals though. All I know is that they may do it now. The time when I tried it and couldn't do it was about a year ago so if I was you I would try and get some proper confirmation before giving up.

    I could be wrong as this is what actually happened to me about a year ago and not recently.

    I just checked Paypal's website, they don't say anything about U.S. only.

    It says you can reapply, so it wouldn't hurt to at least try it out.

    If that doesn't work you could try getting one of those visa gift cards. They basically work like a debit card in that you put money on the account. They are backed up by Visa or Mastercard so you can use it pretty much anywhere including online.

    As far as why big advertising firms don't accept Paypal, consider the paypal fee structure. It is great for the buyer (no fees) but it screws the seller (or money receiver). Yahoo would have to strike a deal with paypal in order for it to be advantageous for them.

    Buying unique traffic from sites like you mentioned is a very bad idea. Most of these sites just send robot and very untargetted traffic to your site, which just wastes your money and uses up all of your bandwidth.

    Also, the site mentioned also takes quite a while to wait for it to load. There should be a thing that says "skip intro".

    People going to that site will leave before it loads how long it takes.

    Thats why if you have a slow connection or computer you should click on html instead of flash. ;)

    Whoops!

    Sorry about that. I just bypassed the part that said html. I have now clicked on the html part and it is much faster.

    Thanks!

    Clicksor is based on pure contextual ads. Due to some restriction on Clicksor, many publisher sees that they earn less compared to Google Adsense. I think if many advertiser get their advertisement published in Clicksor, then the publisher will get more income from this PPC advertisement.
