Alternatives to AdSense
- AdBrite
Free form text ads that give you more control over their appearance than AdSense. Also displayed with no "Ads by xxxxx" text. Excellent service. Recommended.
- Affiliate Sensor
This service automatically allows you to display ads from Clickbank's large member network. I found some formatting issues when selecting certain ad sizes. Cool idea.
- Bidvertiser
Definitely one of the major players. Allows you to set your own price and advertisers or have everything automated, just like AdSense. Recommended.
- Clicksor
Only seems to accept sites with a large amount of traffic, at least 50% of which must come from Canada, USA and UK. Recommended.
- Commission Junction
Using CJ's smartzones you can display rotating advertisements. Generally used for image ads rather than text ads. Major player. Recommended.
- Direct Link Ads
Trying to be a competitor to Text Link Ads but is very confusing, not very user friendly and don't really explain what they do or how they do it.
- Element Ads
Displays AdSense-like ad units with fully customizable color schemes. The ad content relates to manually entered keywords rather than being fully contextual.
- IndustryBrains
"Our technology enables vertically-focused publishers to monetize their Web sites and deliver relevant contextual text listings and graphical ads. With our site-specific model, publishers can leverage their brands and charge a premium for their quality audience and content."
- Kanoodle Bright Ads
Offers some great monetization options. "BrightAds is targeted towards a North American audience and will only be displayed on content sites presented in English and whose primary audience is in the United States and Canada." Recommended.
- Text Link Ads
Another big player in this field but only accepts sites with a good number of incoming links (they tell you its traffic that's important officially but unofficially incoming links are more important!)
- Yahoo! Publisher Network
"Simply display ads that are relevant to the content of your site and earn money from qualified clicks. No investment is required and setup is quick and easy."
