    Invinatations to Yahoo Publisher Network. YPN for short. It's something like Google Adsense.

    So far YPN has been a huge disappointment to me (they have no clue about how to match content to their ads), if I had it to do all over again I'd sell the invite.

    Somebody said that you can contact the YPN support and ask them for more targeted ads.

    They think it'll be worth it because they also think they will make 16 times the revenue they make on Adsense. Sometimes thats not the case though, and they end up loosing money.

    You know i could show you some of my stats where a day with YPN has earnt me nearly $3,000 where as using adsense on that site would max around $800.
    If i wasn't able to use YPN for free then for sure i would pay 1,000's for an account, its not stupid at all it actually makes sense to do so.
