OK OK i am Cr*p at punctuation, I really dont understand were to put the comers or what ever they are, but i dont think i do bad considering im thick and dislexic, if thats how you spell it ha ha.

So if any one has any tut's on were to put the ,,,, in a sentense, that would be really good and great help.

P.S. Hope my punctuation doesn't anger any one, if it does well erm TUFF

Minstrel, it's not their successes. It's their evilness. The way they did Adsense, and then dropped the pay out rate and started keeping 90% of the earnings, screwing the webmasters who built the program up. They are driving the value of impressions into the ground, and clicks too.

No, madkad - I'm not slamming you here... I'm just trying to be humorous. It reminded me of letters I used to get from my grandmother as a child. She would just plonk down a comma wherever she stopped to think or take a sip of tea so her sentences were a little eccentric, to say the least. Then when she got to the very end of the letter, she'd finally put in a period.

But what affiliate program hasn't done that? Look at Amazon... or more recently that Chikita bunch everyone got so excited about...

Google started out paying 80%+

Then they changed it.

Bait and switch?

What is it now?

**John Scott** · 12-28-2005, 04:06 PM

I am researching it, but it appears to be less than 10% at times. And the rates vary by publisher. If you have a website with so many page views/ click throughs, it can be a high pay rate, and the percentage will drop dramatically for publishers with very few page views/ click throughs.

I'll dig up an article where it shows the dropping pay out rates.

Minstrel, Bill Gates lost my respect along the way.

It's hard for me to admire either Bill Gates or google because of their tactics. Bill Gates is simply Machiavellian (sp?).

Google seems to be heading down a path that tends toward megalomania and I find that disturbing.

It's just the same old story, really: Power corrupts.

Which IMO is giving YPN a great headstart. I love YPN. It's like the old way of GA before Google changed things. I just don't know if Yahoo! will keep improving things or go down the same path as Google with it, but so far it looks like Yahoo! is really doing a great job.

btw they keep announcing new and creative ads to come in January. Maybe they're finding their own style now that they are getting a taste of where the biggest bucks are

Yahoo had a "WebRank", but I don't know what happened to it. I think it's still being developed.

Gevorg · 12-29-2005, 12:02 PM

In my understanding Yahoo's WebRank reflects how many people are visiting your site (caught through their Yahoo bar). Like Alexa pretty much.

So it does not have a lot of SEO value. Only if you want to by an advertisement on that site.
