    If what is being said here is true and we can get in, G is in trouble. I'm talking to folks that are having the usual traffic and CTR, but revenue is off by 50%. That is happening to me too.

    If I can get in to Y, I may just jump ship.

    Shoemoney,

    How do you plan to handle both YPN and adsense? Are you going to run both?

    Read Yahoo's TOS page. To translate what it says, they say they are paying MORE now, and will drop payout rates after the beta stuff and hype ends!!!

    Prolly why everyone wants to get in while Y put their best foot forward..

    Remember too folks, when the floodgates open, expect a flood. That is, the dynamics you're enjoying right now will be severely diminished, both from a support and payout perspective. Let's not forget either that Y are free to change their TOS at any time.

    What I'm interested in is how Y differs from G. At the end of the day, they will have no choice but to address the very same issues G has had to with Adsense.

    I'm aware that the beta is more than just code - I suspect there are some very clever minds applying themselves to a longer term model, but I'm at a loss to see how they will improve over G at a micro service level (my simple publisher perspective).

    The moneys good right now - hell, why not roll in the fluff while it's there - but it's not sustainable and publishers will need to remain very aware of that.

    Now, if they'd just allow us AUSSIES to join.. :)

    Cheers,

    JL

    I applied a while back - I don't have MAJOR traffic like some of you guys ... so figured I wouldn't be accepted ... but lo and behold, I got an Email today that I'm in ... so I switched a page over to YPN and we'll see how it does. It's not a very good data point as traffic is a couple of dozen page views a day, but just a little test of my own.

    So yea, they are opening up the floodgates to the little guys ... I suspect we'll hear from MSN soon too.

    Remember that drawing undue attention to your ads and/or suggesting users click on them is against the TOS ... ;-)

    Quoting shit out of context does no one any good. You left out the if in your efforts to sensationalize my post.

    Nice try, but a waste of time.

    Learn how to read the TOS page. It's not if.

    https://publisher.yahoo.com/legal/tnc/

    So of course Yahoo wants people to make more money now and jump shop, if Yahoo's not on crack. Theres your if. Happy now??!! [​IMG] [​IMG] [​IMG] [​IMG]
