    I wasn't implying that, even though my wording sure made it seem like that. Its pretty clear that its an ad, I was referring to the fact that it's attention-grabbing, which it is, and that's all the better. Ads are supposed to do that.

    I'm guessing that you can use this alongside AdSense, but not with AdSense, since shopping ads are allowed alongside AdSense, and the emptyspaceads format can be said to be different than adsense's.

    You have two options. The answers to your question change depending on which option you pick. You can also do both option 1 and 2.
    (1) Create your own ads (that promote your products and services... or you can promote someone else's products as an affiliate). Example: our blog (see how we push our readers to subscribe). You can promote products from clickBank or any other product.
    (2) Use ads from ad networks. Right now, we only have integration with ShoppingAds... so you can can sign up with an account from them and then have their ads appear in your site's empty space. See our blog post for how this works. Right now we only have one network... but even if you don't like ShoppingAds, you should still sign up because we're going to adding every ad network that you the publisher wants us to integrate with. So what networks are we missing?

    Q: Language?
    With option 1, ads can be in any language, because you create them yourself. With option 2, the ads are in English.

    Q: Pay via PayPal?
    In both option 1 and option 2 we don't pay you directly. In option 1 your visitors are paying you by buying the products & services you refer them to. In option 2, ShoppingAds pays you directly, via PayPal. See our site on "how do I get paid?"

    Q: What is the CPM rate?
    In option 1, the ads you create are your own... or you could even sell the ads to an advertiser (like AdToll). In option 2, the ads are delivered via ShoppingAds on a CPC or CPA basis depending on traffic.

    Great questions! Please keep them coming! Also let me know which ad networks you folks want support for.
