Microsoft's adsense competitor is IN BETA!!!

Discussion in 'AdSense' started by ly2, Jul 27, 2008.

    In case you guys didnt know, Microsoft has a competitor to adsense out, with clicking paying 10-15x what you would expect from google. Its like YPN x3- People are getting HUGE payouts, and the way they let you style the ads is crazy. You can put custom backgrounds on ads.

    I cant wait for this to go live- But apparently its USA only, once again.

    I applied to the beta but no response, apparently only real big quality sites are getting in now.

    Well,
    Only accepted for US, which won't be a compete to Adsense.

    When AdCenter will be International, they might have a chance to "compete" Adsense.

    I hope it wont be like YPN which is stuck in USA forever and seemed to be not going anywhere. The ads unit posted by the OP looks nice though, won't mind having these on my web site :)

    YPN is dead, they just haven't buried it yet. Yahoo is one pathetic place, just a tad better than AOL..lol

    i applied for the Microsoft program and hopefully they have it more together than YPN... Google has been so bad for the last week I will try anything new.
