Adsense Alternatives for Webmasters
Posted on 21 March 2007 by DeanHunt
Recently Google lifted the ban on having third party ads along side Adsense.
”When it comes to enforcing policies on third-party contextual ads, we’ll be following the updated program policies instead of the T&Cs on this point. That is to say, publishers may now display other contextual ads on the same site or page as Google ads as long as they don’t have the same look and feel as our ads”
This is great news for webmasters and bloggers and the market is now full of quality alternatives.
Here is my complete guide to all of the main alternatives to adsense.
