Does anyone use Overture to promote their site? Are they any good? What search engines do the Overture ads appear on?

I can't believe that it takes 3-5 working days for the editorial team to review the new keywords that I want to use. Adwords is so much easier!

Overture is used by Yahoo and smaller engines.

I haven't used them ever.

When you are done, please share the results with us

It took them 24 hours to reject my three new listings...

Here is one of them:
Quote
Keywords:  weight loss diet

Title and description: Cohen's Lifestyle Clinic -  A personalised rapid weight loss diet using your blood profile based on years of medical research done by Dr Cohen over 20 years ago. No pills, shakes or injections.

And here is their rejection reason:
Quote
Blocked Term:
Listings that contain terms that appear to be abusive, threatening, promoting hate or intolerance, would generally be considered offensive by our users, or are of questionable legality are not permitted on Overture.

I think that they are going to lose a lot of business if they carry on like this! They will probably lose mine; I don't like their service!

They must really s**k

Try SearchFeed. They are really cheap, and they are one of the bigger networks around.

You can also use my affiliate url to do this Smiley
