I removed most of the AdSense ads as well as all Kontera ads for now. I’m going to experiment with AuctionAds, a network that utilizes targeted search terms with auction sites like eBay. I’ve heard about AuctionAds before, but I didn’t really think about it too much until I read more about it at ProBlogger. Mainly reading the comments and seeing how some people have been really successful with it.

From the sounds of it, it works best on very niche sites. Take a mobile phone review site, where a post can be targeted directly to a product. For example if this was a review for the Palm Treo 700WX, I can have an ad that looks like this:

This can be very effective for a site, which generates good revenue. The site would make money from anybody signing up for eBay as well as if anybody buys anything on eBay as a result of clicking on the ad.

I’ll be keyword targeting a few posts that I feel may be a good fit for a higher CTR. This is more of an experiment for now just to see how it does. I will report further as time goes by.

If you use AuctionAds now, let us know how it has worked out for you (feel free to post anonymously).
