    I'm interested in speaking with you about the new search-targeted ads from #Some ad network#. I believe shetoldme.com could generate ADDITIONAL revenue by specifically targeting your search engine traffic. #Some ad network# PPC ads are 100% search-targeted and only show up to readers from the U.S. and Canada who arrive at your site from Google, Yahoo! or Bing.

    Because #Some ad network# specializes in search-targeted advertising, we have the ability to show an ad that directly relates to your visitor's search query (vs. on-page contextual ads which usually aren't as specific). Most of our Publishers notice an increased CTR thanks to the increased relevancy.

    #Some ad network# offer a huge range of premium content from high profile advertisers. Our ads are best used to bolster your current ad strategy (vs. replace it), and most of our Publishers have an alternate ad campaign in place (ie: AdSense) for non-search traffic. Alexa estimates your search traffic at 18%, so you definitely have the potential to do well.

    I've attached our FAQ and would be happy to chat about any questions you may have. My job is to help our Publishers make as much money as possible with #Some ad network#, and it's my pleasure to assist you.

    Hi James,

    Thanks for your inquiry. No, we don't have any special incentives to start using #Some ad network#. That being said, the real only incentive is obviously to boost a site's revenue, and that is something we do very well with our premium search-targeted ads. I'd love to help you conduct a test if you're interested - the numbers speak for themselves.

    Let me know if there's anything else I can do or if you have any other questions. If you want to move forward, pls take a moment & register at: http://www.#Some ad network#.com/signup.

    Thanks James!

    Thanks Bryan but to change my mind I'll have to see your company recommended by others on webmaster forums, because until then I will have forgotten all about it, trust me I receive those kind of emails often, be it ad networks or affiliates programs, I only accept incentive money to test the offer, that weeds out most of the people who don't even have trust in their own program so that they can't pay anything to get webmasters started. Result is they get only those webmasters to sign up, those who accept everything and anything on their site until they get their act together and remove most of the things.

    I had Chitika which provides the same thing as you, on this very site you sent an email to, and removed them because they didn't perform, but I'm sure you will tell me you probably do better rates than them.
    But still can't pay anything as incentive. Funny.

    Cheers,
    James
