    I get a fairly steady amount of income from this site...steadily low, but there are always clicks. Anyways, I installed the YPN ads on my homepage only in place of the AdSense ads that used to be there. I invite you all to check out how it looks, because I am fairly impressed with not only how much it looks like AdSense, but how much better the ads are. Before the ads were not very closely related to what my visitors might also be interested in. Now the ads are much better, but not perfect. The link is below. I will be updating my blog (www.debriyn.com/plog) about the effectiveness of YPN for me and my very niche genre.

    I have found some interesting things about YPN so far. First of all I placed my first YPN ad on a site (after removing adsense), the YPN ad block was blank only about 1 hour, then non revelant ads appeared.

    After they appeared on that site, they appeared instantly on all other sites I again pasted the code on, no waiting hours as some folks have said.
    Within one hour of receiving non revelant ads, they started turning into ads based on each sites content.

    So woohoo.... I am in YPN and will test the earnings on these sites and let you all know what happens after a week or so.

    Will it's been over 24 hours now since YPN ads have been showing on 10 different sites of mine. Unless they change in a day or so, the revelancy is very poor, compared to Adsense ads.

    I have 10 sites, each with different content and subject. Each site has two ad blocks showing 5 ads, for 10 ads total on each site.

    On 1 site, out of 10 ads shown: 10 are relevant
    On 1 site, out of 10 ads shown: 6 are relevant
    On 1 site, out of 10 ads shown: 5 are relevant :rolleyes:
    On 1 site, out of 10 ads shown: 2 were relevant :eek:
    On 2 sites, out of 10 ads shown: 1 is relevant :(
    On 4 sites, out of 10 ads shown: 0 are relevant :mad:

    When I had AdSense ads, around 95% of the total ads shown were relevant.

    It's been two days now with YPN, the ads still are the same, seems they have very little categories, or are no wheres near as relevant as AdSense ads are. If they were more relevant they can make you a fortune.

    What I see so far is great, even though most of my sites so far show pretty non relevant ads, when there clicked WOW..... The YPN ads are earning a LOT more than they did on AdSense... CTR is of course lower due to non relevant ads, but the earnings per click more than make up for it...... I am converting more sites to YPN. :)

    My earnings per click are much nicer...the ads have started to be even better. The problem is that the ads are the same site wide. It's not really a problem, but I like to see some change
