AdSense alternative
By maurizio | May 21, 2007
As I said on my previous post, I swapped PSA ads. Thanks to my dearest reader Paula, I discovered a problem with my alternate Ads.
Let me explain what I did first. Google Adsense gives you the possibility to show an alternate page when there isn’t any paying ad to show.

If you select the second option you can insert an url. The trick here is that you can create your own webpage and put it there.
What I did was simply to create an html page with my AuctionAds code, save it on my hosting space and putting the url there.
Here is my alternate page
The page is as simple as that:
<html><head><title>Ads</title></head>
<body>
<!-- put your AuctionAds code here -->
</body>
</html>
You can even put Analytics code there if you need to have some statistic about it. I decided to put my Clicky code, because I need some real-time statistic just for fun. :-)
Please note that google use an IFRAME to show your page. This means that your resulting page MUST have the same dimension of the original Google ad.This means that if you have a 120×600 Google ads, your target html page should have the same width and height. Because you show only an AuctionAds there, your AuctionAds ads should have those dimensions.

Hi Maurizio,
I see you use Clicky. Did you see they are running a competition to make a widget, I’m not a tech person so I don’t even understand what they want, but they are offering a prize of $250 up for grabs if you are interested .

AuctionAds+Twitter+Adsense+Wordpress=toBid.info…
Cause AuctionAds allow using multiple AuctionAds units on a single page, so, plan to use AuctionAds as the main content for toBid.info
Use the keywords from search box and title to define the keyword that needed for the AuctionAds to get the fitting c…

Hello Maurizio,
I didn’t know that you could do this. I’ll give it a try on some of my lower volume sites. I get a little frustrated by the arbitrage technique used by Google, whereby adspace is almost given away to many big advertisers and the PPC is only single cents.

I recently found a new network that is an Adsense alternative named, Prosperent. You should check it out as it is very customizable and has a high eCPM. I highly recommend it.
