This is simply arbitrage, a concept which should work in any emerging free market and one which we as established registered companies exploit.&lt;BR/&gt;&lt;BR/&gt;Please don't believe the hype circulated by Google et al. We're not spammers, we're not going to take your bank details, and we don't aim to provide a poor user experience - far from it.&lt;BR/&gt;&lt;BR/&gt;Our model only works because users on major search engines find our ads the most relevant thing on the page (whether algorithmic or paid). We then provide alternative, and dare I say, more relevant links (whether paid or not).&lt;BR/&gt;&lt;BR/&gt;The problem we have as arbitrageurs is that we're too good at what we do. We drive millions of dollars worth of traffic from one network to another - and that's the issue, do you think Google wants to line the pockets of Yahoo with their own traffic? No.</content><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2051479332227534348/2855421500413336283/comments/default/5832885840071322127'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2051479332227534348/2855421500413336283/comments/default/5832885840071322127'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://www.annrbrocklehurst.com/2007/08/sidebar-how-internet-ad-arbitrage-works.html?showComment=1238717700000#c5832885840071322127' title=''/><author><name>Anonymous</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email></author><thr:in-reply-to xmlns:thr='http://purl.org/syndication/thread/1.0' href='http://www.annrbrocklehurst.com/2007/08/sidebar-how-internet-ad-arbitrage-works.html' ref='tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2051479332227534348.post-2855421500413336283' source='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2051479332227534348/posts/default/2855421500413336283' type='text/html'/></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2051479332227534348.post-7070600502934448257</id><published>2009-01-29T14:31:00.000-05:00</published><updated>2009-01-29T14:31:00.000-05:00</updated><title type='text'>Its seems as thou, google has not eliminated all s...</title><content type='html'>Its seems as thou, google has not eliminated all spammers yet. I still come across sponsored ads on google search pages leading to a landing page setup to display Yahoo text ads.&lt;BR/&gt;&lt;BR/&gt;I could never figure out how these sites were making money by paying for clicks on google. They are not promoting any products but just fillid bunch of text which looks like text ads. I knew they are ads but didn't know they are Yahoo ads. It makes all the sense now how they able to pay google for clicks and generate profit from text ads (yahoo ads) on their pages.</content><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2051479332227534348/2855421500413336283/comments/default/7070600502934448257'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2051479332227534348/2855421500413336283/comments/default/7070600502934448257'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://www.annrbrocklehurst.com/2007/08/sidebar-how-internet-ad-arbitrage-works.html?showComment=1233257460000#c7070600502934448257' title=''/><author><name>Niche Affiliate Marketing</name><uri>http://niche-affiliate-marketing.com/</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email></author><thr:in-reply-to xmlns:thr='http://purl.org/syndication/thread/1.0' href='http://www.annrbrocklehurst.com/2007/08/sidebar-how-internet-ad-arbitrage-works.html' ref='tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2051479332227534348.post-2855421500413336283' source='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2051479332227534348/posts/default/2855421500413336283' type='text/html'/></entry></feed>
