I used YPN "Targeting" feature to select the most profitable subcategory to advertize ads at my website. As a result, CTR is very low, but the price per click is very high. Can someone suggest me something to improve my CTR to get more $$$ out of high paying ads? The problem is that they are not quite relevant to my content.
That is the issue we all are having. I think we just have to wait until they increase advertiser levels.
Yes it's horrible, will not horrible.... it's yes, horrible. Out of 10 different sites, each with different subjects and content, I average: 2 sites with great relevant ads 4 with 50/50 relevancy 4 with totaly non relevant ads, and no categories that provide any relevantly close ads
I tried YPN for 2 days and I only got 3 clicks!!!! this is unacceptable to me, I switched back to adsense.
I moved all of my sites to YPN, YPN has very poor relevant ads which makes CTR very low, but the high EPC makes me earn a LOT more with YPN then I did with AdSense and it's 'smart pricing' crap....... Right now I like YPN a lot, if there ads get more relevent, it will be great For example (not actual YPN amounts so I don''t violate their TOS) - I mean with YPN if I get get 5 clicks I make around $12, with AdSense if I got 5 clicks I would make 30 cents, if I was lucky.
bluegill_catcher - Well, there you have it. Bottom line. Not much more to be said after that! I just wish they had more channels.
I think Yahoo need more mediabots(??). No matter what the content is, When I first place the code I get landing tree and vonage. and after mediabot visited my site, Ads became little more relevant. and definitely need more advertisers.
I switched from Adsense to YPN and while the CTR is low as others have said, I am getting twice as much in revenue. Since the point of it all is to make money-I'm ok with this problem ;-) I have noticed that improving meta tags and descriptions does help the ads become slightmy more relevant. Fewer tags and a brief description worked better than too many. Anyone else tried that?
