AdSense Alternatives - 7 Alternative Internet Advertising Sites Competing with Google AdWords

Adsense Alternatives

Many people have started using Google's AdSense program, but there are some who find it a bit too uncertain or simply not suiting their own requirements from an ad program.

But thankfully for such people, there are many alternatives to AdSense which attempt to alleviate some of its shortcomings. Here is a list of the most noteworthy ones from the lot with a description concerning each one.


Kontera (http://kontera.com)

As you are reading this, you probably see a bunch of random links scattered throughout the page - these are done through Kontera.  Kontera specializes in In-Text ads.  It works by indexing your page looking for keywords and phrases that are not currently links and converts them into advertising links. When a user places their mouse over the link a box opens up showing the ad. If they click on the link you get paid. It is very simple and works very effectively.




InfoLinks ( http://infolinks.com)

Infolinks is another company that specializes in In-Text Advertizing. The nice part is that you can use Infolinks to compliment an existing advertising campaign on your website - you can show banner ads with AdBrite or Bidvertiser and show text links with Infolinks. Or you can even show text links with both AdBrite and Infolinks together on the same page to maximize your revenue.


Infolinks claims to be leading the industry with the most relevant in-text advertising links and the highest revenue share - guaranteed. I am not sure how they 'guarantee' this but having used them for several months I can attest that their payouts are indeed good compared to other In-Text advertizing options.

Some of the Infolinks.com features are that it's Quick and Easy to setup with no modifying your website or charges to sign up.  Also, ads are placed right within your text as to not distract from your website content.

Bid4Keywords (http://bid4keywords.com)

Bid4Keywords is definitely one of my favorites for one reason - GREAT customer service.  Whether you are advanced or a novice, their customer service team based out of Los Angeles will help you along the way.  The format is similar to Adsense with a lot less bells and whistles, and typically the PPC (pay per click) is generally less.

Clicksor (http://www.Clicksor.com)

Clicksor offers high paying pop-up ads and full page ads. Very prompt with their payment and they make payment about every 2 weeks (about 15) days via Paypal. However, they do have some joining restrictions with a 5,000 page views per day or 150000 page views per month requirement

Kanoodle  (https://www.kanoodle.com/about/advertise.html)

Kanoodle's offering allows publishers to get ads related to topics or segments, and not the traditional keyword oriented ads. The site also groups publisher sites with advertisers by hand to ensure high-revenue generating ads. And speaking of revenue, the amount of money you receive is a clear 50% share of the amount of money Kanoodle recieves for an advertiser.

AdBrite (http://Adbrite.com)


AdBrite, is currently one of the best alternatives there is to Google's AdSense. While they do not offer the same large selection of ad formats that Google Adsense provides you they do offer the most commonly used ones.  They have more relaxed terms and conditions than Adsense and are much more accepting of smaller publishers including bloggers.

While AdBrite can provide publishers with more revenue and better ads than traditional ad networks such as Google AdSense, they work fine along-side them as a way for you to generate additional ad revenue by selling ads directly to your visitors - something the other ad systems don't do.  AdBrite also lets you select your own minimum bid prices and give you the option of showing an alternative ad service such as Clicksor for example, when bid prices fall below your minimum.

Note, however, that itt can take a day or so from when you signup with AdBrite.com and put their code on your website to actually start seeing your ads showing up. As I mentioned earlier, AdBrite also accepts Blogs as sites so if you are having difficulties with other programs turning you down because of their terms are restricting your ads, AdBrite might be an alternative.


Clicksor (http://www.clicksor.com)

Clicksor will earn you as much as 60% from the amount of money your website produces. What you get is about the same as AdSense, there are targeted text ads, you can view the revenues from your website in real time. You can receive money via PayPal or through a check every two weeks, provided that you have earned more then $50. If you haven't made that much, your earning roll over to the next period
