    Anyone use Miva?

    Any feedback on it? It seems to be professional. (Still pending submission).

    They have good support, but from an advertiser's point of view it kinda sucks. Cheaper clics. Few and useless though.

    If you are used to adsense then their interface is terrible in my view. Everytime you make a change to your ads or keywords they have to be checked by a real person from miva. This makes making changes to your ads quite difficult and time consuming.

    I also heard clickfraud was much higher then in the top tier PPC's but I can't confirm this. I only tried them out for a brief time and then gave up.

    I've never used Miva personally, but most of the feedback I've read regarding their programs and services describes them as less than stellar. ;) You may want to conduct a search on this and other forums to gather more information.

    I used them more often back when they were "FindWhat".

    I basically stay away from them now as it is nearly impossible to get my keywords approved... last month I dropped $50 bucks in there, started a new campaign, and several days later was informed that 1 of my 50 keywords had been approved (all of these keywords are in use in my Adwords and MSN campaigns). My emails to Miva about this situation have gone unanswered.

    My advice... stay away.

    Miva is okk.....their submission process is abit annoy you have to wait like 24-48 hors for listing to be approved...but appart from that it provides good traficc and conversion rates seems to be not too low

    well I ran an ad yesterday... had horrible results compared to overture... got tons of clicks (83) before I paused the camp. because I only received 3 clicks on my adsense ads. PLUS my tracker only showed 55 page views... so how could I have had 83 supposed unique click throughs and only 55 page views?
    I might be doing somewthing wrong as I am new to ppc but I have WAAAYYY better results with overture!
    I am getting the rest of my deposit refunded!

    if you keep submitting the same keywords to overture they'll eventually get approved

    anyways, imo MIVA SUCKS. no good experiences, just wasted money and fruitless clicks.
