    Nope, I spend three times that a day and haven't had any problems. Do you get any results using google or yahoo?

    No problems here either, I actually get some of my best conversions from adCenter. Are you bidding on very broad terms and paying top dollar for them? I focus on very targeted keywords and tend to lowball my bids, which you can do on adCenter a lot more effectively than on G$$gle these days.

    Adcenter seems to convert the best for me but I guess it all depends on your niche.

    I get better conversions with MSN than Google or Yahoo but it all depends on your niche and the keywords that you are using. Also remember that is not about getting a lot of traffic but getting targeted traffic. I would pay more attention on what kind of traffic you are getting and make sure is targeted even if it is less.

    I have managed to achieve very little traffic with MSN whatsoever and the interface is not a patch on the adwords one, lets hope the update is worth it!

    Well you can not blame them. Msn is doing too many things at the same time. Google and yahoo that is their bread and butter. That is to say they can do better. msn has it's own loyal following and with some good strategy you can get that to paying traffic.

    I am glad to hear so many people have good results with AdCenter. Maybe they will stop bugging me to use them again. I just found it frustrating to use and very little traffic genrated from it compared to similar keywords on Yahoo and Google.

    As an avid (frustrated) user of adwords I recently signed up to Adcenter.

    I found that yes the traffic is less on Adcenter but if you properly target your promotion you will get over twice the conversion rates as google and the spend is at least half of Google.

    As An Example:

    One campaign over a 2 day period:

    MSN - 283 impressions - 4 conversions - $88.00 Cost - $12.10
    Google - 833 impressions - 2 conversions - $44.00 Cost $39.00 (Whoohoo! $5 profit)

    The Stats speak for themself!! and so far it continues this way.

    And how many times has Google called you on the phone when you were having problems?? I was shocked when Adcenter called me to fix my problem, But it was great.

    Latley I have waited 10 days to get a Campaign approved on Google, which seems to be something new with them as I have never had this problem before.

    And with MSN 5-15 minutes and my Campaigns were active.

    So far I am sold on Adcenter as long as you use highly targeted keywords you should do well.

    I can't give my money to AdCenter for my niches.....they just don't have the inventory......the click to lead ratio is nice....just no traffic
