Goodbye Google Adsense And Hello The Lounge

Out With The Old

On my previous blog I used to use the Google AdSense, but it quickly became a nuisance. Not only was my webpage cluttered with irrelevant Ads (usually off topic & sometimes offensive), but I could only get at most pennies a day in earnings.

I tried several approaches to get higher click-rates (by rearranging my ads, placing multiple ad blocks, changing colors, etc…), but in the end I think it annoyed my readers and it really didn’t provide the revenue that I had expected or desired.

In With The New

Due to my experience with Google AdSense, my search for another web-based marketing tool began.

What I wanted out of my new provider…

1. Ads that are actually relevant to my blog audience
2. A trusted reputable service
3. Potential for some actual revenue
