Today I heared about this new company, which is supposed to give contextual ads with better rates than Adsense.

I've just sign up for an account, and if they finally accept my sites, I will test their program, but I would like to know if anyone here has used their program

Actually I don't have any experience with them, but I know that there are many webmasters switching from adsense to them.

I would like to know why this happens, and propably if they are so good, to create an account with them.

I mean if they can give more than adsense why not?

I've just signup for an account.

My first thoughts about them are :

1) They accept my site in less than a day.

2) They replied my mails instantly.

It seems that they are a serious company.

I will let you know what happens next with them in this topic

I have used targetfirst.  They're a little different in that instead of dynamically generating which ads should be shown, you just pick what category of ads you want to show for that banner or whatever.

I have not, however, used them enough to know if it pays more than adsense.  There are less advertisers with TF, so depending on your site, it may be better or worse... also, if you have different pages that would need completely different ads, you have to create a new ad for each one or some of the pages will end up with irrelavent ads, but, if you do create the ads, you know they'll stay on topic.

That's the first proble I had, so I made up a script that will give me different ads for each category of the site, but it is really difficult to make something like this in the directory because it has more than 100 categories

I don't think adsense usually shows ads which would interest people who go to my site, I think it would be better if I could choose the categories myself. I'm going to look into targetfirst and maybe I'll give them a try.

It seems that this is true, and I am sorry that I haven't mentioned it before...

What I've experienced on that is that they were showing that my sites done 0 impressions of their ads, which wasn't happening. But anyway a lot of people have told that they are scum so I will bypass them.

As for the adsense alternatives, check this thread Visit through proxy
