Reasons why... 1) Site Targetting From Yahoo 2) Google can't served relevant ads fast enough. So it's always showing ads that really isn't what my site is about. With site targetting, I have the ability to change the ads at will, instantly without a problem. With experiments and trial and error you can be scoring big on YPN. I barely get a click with Adsense on forums even after optizing it and placing it where the hotspots are (according to google). Anyone else had any success with YPN in forums? Another sucess story would be zeldauniverse.net after lee dodd took it over now sold, he was averaging 4000 with it. But then with him it's an exception she he is the master of monetization with forums.
I did not realize Yahoo could have better ad targeting then Adsense, it's almost ironic. You referred to Lee and then said she... he is a guy, lol. But yeah my old forum made alright sum, but people just don't click as much as websites with the same kind of traffic.
lol...I have no idea where that "she" came in...but it's not about the better targetting, it's about the fact that you can change ads in a matters of minute with YPN. Trial and Error can get you really far with YPN but so can adsense, but with adsense you don't have that great of a power to change the ads on a whim. Active forums have threads created in minutes...which means if you have ads on there, those ads are appearing in pages which haven't even been crawled. I'm gonna test both adsense and YPN on a larger forum though next that I just acquired.
