Google's no, "Search" company

Google, which absurdly still claims that its sole mission is to "organize the world's information," is officialy turning its crappy text-ad network into a crappy banner network. In the process, it's formally ditching the company's already marshmallow-soft promise of targeting ads solely on user intent and relevancy.

As Battelle points out in the New York Times article, "This drives the nail into the coffin of the idea that Google is a search business. It is an advertising business that has nothing particularly to do with search."

LOL! Duh!

IMHO this is why it has been so easy in the Google SEO arena lately. Even newbies are exposing it for the junk it is.

Google is an advertising company, not the search engine company they were before.

"Is Google simply biting off more than it should be chewing? I've got to think that even Tacoda's network... even ContextWeb and Revenue Science make Google kinda jealous. Indeed, considering to how mediocre AdSense and AdWords have performed for advertisers."

KEYWORD > MEDIOCRE

What programs perform better than Ad Sense?

 

[pinyo]

Selling your own advertisement Unless you have mega traffic.

 

[Paul_KY]

I can think of about 500 programs, which do MUCH better than googeeezzz nosense. lol

I tend to lean on the side of letting the sheep flock were there may.

And sheep do flock.

There is no dispute.

Yep, you guessed it, more here: cj.com (participate with caution IMHO)

Earn cash by your visitors simply recommending your site to a friend or 2 or 8: public.tafmaster.com/

Good Luck! And don't settle for peanuts!

These networds have offers such as this: i-dealrewards.com

Once the user clicks your text link or banner, all they need to do is simply enter their zip code at BAM - you earn a $1.10 commission. I've seen EPCs (Earning per click) as high as 80 cents on my end.

People love free stuff! And Google's EPC is going...

Very nice commission $1.10. You can earn much more that you can earn with Google.

Thanks Paul, that's a great list!

 

[Paul_KY]

That tell a friend site, IMHO, would be an excellent start as I'm sure you're visitors would be more than happy to tell a friend or two. Meanwhile, Duke earns $50-$100 a month or more if he configures the forum correctly.

Paul, I am dying to know what your thoughts are on how to configure my forums correctly. Also, should all of my forums be configured the same way?

 

[Paul_KY]

Chit, Duke. I meant to say, "FORMS", not forums. I have no idea how to configure forums lol. Sorry.

I'm speaking of the tell a friend form.

 

[Duke]

I have a module like that called "Recommend US" it that's what you mean assuming I'm not completely off the mark.

 

[Paul_KY]

Right, Duke. But with this one you get paid.

 

[Duke]

I'm sorry, but I have no idea what your talking about. Do you mean that people who refer my site get paid or am I referring people to other sites to get paid? If so, what program is it that your talking about, specifically?

Great, thanks a lot Paul.
