SearchFeed review

You visited a few times and I would appreciate your thoughts on this post, why not comment?

SearchFeed is a Miva company that established back in 2000. Their publisher program is a little different from what most webmasters are used to, as they provide you with private label feeds, and pay you per click. So one thing that you need to know before starting with them, is that you need some programming knowledge, or an integration script (hopefully there are some free scripts to use with SearchFeed)

SearchFeed can’t be considered as a main network to use, but they are a great additional source of revenue, and you can use it in conjunction with any other network (eg. adsense)

Bellow are some pros and cons of using SearchFeed.

Pros :

  1. Payments are fast (NET 20) and they use paypal to send you the money. Of course there is also an option for payments by cheque.
  2. You get paid 35%-50% of clicks.
  3. They have a huge number of advertisers, so you wont have availability problems with them.
  4. You get paid for referring advertisers and publishers (2%-7%)
  5. Their private label feed gives you the ability to brand your ads, and make them look the way you like.
  6. SearchFeed can be used along with any other publisher program.
  7. Real time reporting

Cons :

  1. There are not so many high paying clicks, but I guess this is reasonable for a secondary network
  2. They are paying for clicks only from USA, Canada, United Kingdom, Australia, France, Germany, Spain, Italy, Sweden, Norway, Denmark

As pros are more than the cons I guess it worths to work with this company, especially as you can use it with other networks too. Another cool thing is that you can actually create your own ppc search engine by using SearchFeed.

Adversal Review

You visited a few times and I would appreciate your thoughts on this post, why not comment?

A few months ago, I got into the proxy site business. Actually it was more like an experiment to me, as I wanted to see how people make money from sites like this. Anyway it was a very successful experiment and I made some serious money out from that :)

A problem that almost every proxy owner will have is that you can’t use adsense in the proxified pages, so you are actually losing thousands of impressions which could be turned into money. In that case a pop up network is required, and it is the only monetization way that can earn you amounts similar to adsense.

Adversal is the best network I’ve used - after testing 2 other ad networks - for a variety of reasons :

  1. They are very fast. No need for approvals. You just register and use their code with as many sites as you wish
  2. They pay you $1-$6 per 1000 impressions, which is a very fair price in my honest opinion
  3. You get paid for affiliates (yeah that’s why the link I’ve posted looks strange :) ). The affiliate commission is 10%
  4. They paypal the money. So you don’t have to wait for the mailman anymore :)
  5. They pay 15 days after the end of the month

Adversal is the best pop up network, and I think they are far beyond their competition. My opinion is that this is happening because their services are only about pop up advertising, while their competitors are also dealing with banners, cpc, etc.

The bottom line of this review is that I am very satisfied with Adversal, and I would recommend them with no doubt at all. By the way, I will really appreciate if you will register using my affiliate link :)
