    I'm on only my 2nd day of Kontera, and I'm really tempted to switch over to Vibrant.

    I know I'm supposed to give Kontera some time before leaving, but at the same time, the ads that I'm getting on my site does not seem at all appealing to my readers.

    Other sites in my niche (including a huge one) uses Vibrant, and the ads look like something that even I (as a publisher) would click on.

    My only concern is that I hear that Vibrant has issues with payment. However, when big sites are using them, I think those issues aren't as big as some people make it out to be.

    From what I've seen as a user, I find Vibrant Media to have better and more contextual ads than Kontera. That's based on what I've seen from other users' sites.

    Hello,

    I'm from Kontera. ContentLink ads are served through an advanced engine that extracts and ranks topics and keywords, and then matches them with the most relevant ads. We constantly advance and improve our contextual relevancy technology. Sites that periodically display ads that do not correspond with top relevancy demands, primarily generate traffic from outside the US.
    We make every efforts to advance our technology and our ad solutions to meet this demand as well.

    Mika

    Kontera CPC is very very low for me $0.01 per click $0.94 for 91 clicks from 9K impressions.

    Suggest me something good, please

    I use VibrantMedia and they are far better than Kontera as they pay really well for quality sites. I would recommend VibrantMedia hands down if you meet the traffic requirements.

    Hi
    Absolutely you can still join and use Doclix even if you're not an AdSense publisher giving your user the advantage of the extra content our discovery engine selects. However, you will not be able (at this time) to make money from Doclix without an Adsense Publisher ID as currently the system is set up to serve only Adsense ads.
    That being said we do have a number of publishers who use it just for the extra content.
    I do want to be as transparent as possible and we're all here to make money so wanted to apprise you of that one item.
    Warmest regards,
    Lee.

    There are many factors that affect cpc, some of which Kontera does not directly control, such as Advertisers' demands for a particular keyword or exposure to traffic from a specific area. Still, there's much we can do in order to optimize our ads for a particular site.
    Upon joining our network we ask that you allow some time for this optimization to take place.
    If you send me your site's URL, I could review it and change some of our ads' settings.

    Thanks,

    Mika

    Perhaps you could update us on things like # of page impressions you serve for your advertisers, # of sites,etc. All your competitors seem to provide high level information like this.

    I am averaging 9 cents per click with Kontera. Adbrite was about 12 cents. I still need to try chitika lynx. Adbrite ads were quire irrelevent to my site and bunched at the top of of the page. Kontera is relevant and nicely spaced.

    A bit disappointed with the CPC but its only 3 days and will try for a week.

    My industry is weight loss / fitness.

    You can check all my web site in my signature. But remember Vibrantmedia will pay only for US or Europe traffic.

    I have been using various in text ad technologies and finally have found the best in-text ad company for me. Obviously it is VibrantMedia IntelliTXT. I have tried Kontera, Miva and not forgetting Chitika inline ads too. Chitika Inline ads pay a bit more than Kontera and Miva, I had a time with Kontera when I started using them. Since I shift to Vibrantmedia although I have less traffic from the countries they accept traffic from, I have seen the highest CPC ever. Comparing to Kontera If I have made some $ having 250 clicks, I have made more $ just with 10-15 clicks from VibrantMedia.

    If any body wanna give a try, just send me a message. I can recommend you to VibrantMedia. So possibility of getting approved to them will be more.
