How Much do you make from Konterra compared to Adsense?

    I just signed up to Konterra and am running their embedded ads in addition to adsense display ads. How much do you make from Konterra? Could you express it as a percentage of what you make from adsense?

    I'm also interested is knowing that

    I suspect it will be far lower than adsense for people who are expert at monetizing sites with adsense, but not too bad for the people who do stuff wrong with adsense

    I think you'll have to check out the sites of people who reply, in order to get any usable stats

    Kontera was using by me for a long time ago. I did place them for a few weeks then remove it and never looked back. Its worth not much compared to adsense. In fact, link in content may increase CTR but it still a worthless. If you can make $10 from adsense per day then you need to work 500 - 700% harder to get the same amount daily for Kontera.

    I have just started using Kontera... 7 days only.. :(
    Kontera is giving me around 1% of my total adsense earnings / day...dont know why...but the cpm is very very low...in my case...
    will continue till one month...and then i'll see the result as one week is a short amount of time to judge any ads provider...

    These types of questions are niche and talent dependent.

    Kontera does not have the Advertising Base the Google has.... therefore they can not command as much from their Advertisers... therefore they can not pay as much as Adsense.

    However you can if you know what you are doing leverage Kontera as another income stream.

    I use them and they work just fine.

    The thing i dont like about Kontera is that it can vary so much from day to day. one day it will earn 1/2 what Adsense earns, the next day it can earn as much or more. Last month my Adsense total was about $3,000 and Kontera was about $1,700 ..

    Google Adsense is the best. You can't find any better alternative to it.
    This is mainly due to the fact that most of the advertisers use Google to promote their services.

    Kontera pays me a penny for every ten dollars Adsense does.

    Needless to say, Kontera isn't my choice for advertising.

    Very hard to figure out how much extra you'll make with kontera without lots of testing. Maybe someone making 3k adsense and 1k kontera would make 4.5k with adsense without the kontera ads there, or maybe just marginally more. I believe it also depends a lot on your niche. It hasn't worked out on the blogs I've tested it on, but it's probably a good idea for people to experiment a little with each of their sites to see what works best.

    I did some testing last year and found that Kontera did not reduce my Adsense CTR or income.

    Kontera is a very nice service. I must say Kontera is better than Adsense.
