If you don’t feel like using AdBrite as an alternate to your AdSense ads, Etology could be your other choice to earn more money when Adsense ads is not available. Or you can even put Etology side by side with AdSense without worrying it would be against AdSense TOS (Term of Service). Since the system is different. While Adsense sells contextaul ads, Etology sells targeted ads which oftentimes uncontextual.  As far as I am concerned, Etology pays better than AdBrite. Better even, Etology pays you using Paypal, unlike Adbrite which still stick to pays you with check.

Here are some brief FAQs about Etology for publishers like you:

How do I get started?

The first thing you want to do as a seller/publisher is to register your website by first signing up for our free membership. After creating an account, you can register your website under the “Publisher Dashboard” after logging in the first time. Click on “Add A New Website.” Fill in the required information and our site review team will review your website to make sure it complies with our guidelines. *Note: For site description, it is recommended for sellers/publishers to write as detailed a description of their site as possible. This will provide a quick summary of what your site is about and will allow advertisers to see if your site would be a good fit for them.

How much will I get paid for my traffic?
This depends on the origin of the traffic. At Etology, we currently have a 3 Tiered pricing model, with Tier 1 traffic as the highest paying. The pricing varies per tier depending on demand for viewers from a particular region.

The traffic origin is what counts so if you have users originating from our Tier 1 / Tier 2 / Tier 3 network, publishers will be paid 70% of the price set for the region.The Tiered network pricing is a variable rate and changes as Etology continues to grow and new advertisers participate in our program.

Tier 1 Countries United States, North America, & United Kingdom

Tier 2 Countries European Countries: Germany, France, Italy

Tier 3 Countries Vietnam, Turkey, India

When do I get paid and what are my payment options?
Our minimum payout is set at USD$50 dollars. All publishers are eligible to be paid by check, PayPal, and Epassporte. We also offer Bank Wire as a payment option with a USD$500 dollar minimum payout and an additional service fee of $30. Etology payments are typically sent on the 25th of the month schedule; this means that payments are sent twenty-five (25) days after the last day of the month when you have reached the minimum payout amount.

For your initial payment, a confirmation email will be sent to you once you have exceeded your minimum payout regarding your upcoming payment. US publishers will receive payments by check unless they specify Etology Credit. International publishers are required to respond to that email informing us of their preferred method of payment before payment is sent out.

Once you have received your first payment, you will receive payment on the scheduled pay period according to the payment method listed in your “My Account” page.

We do not have the option to choose payment method using the Etology system at the moment.

What happens if my Banner Ad Space is unsold?
If banner ad spaces do not have a direct ad campaign running, network banner ads will be cycled through the banner space. Network ad clicks will be CPC based on legitimately registered clicks. CPC pricing varies depending on location of the user as well as the ad cycled through the banner space.

I have joined Chitika for a long time but don’t pay much attention to it because non-US publishers who apply for eMinimalls program are using CPA (Cost Per Action) system. Any CPA would never work for my website whose most visitors come from third world countries who hardly have credit card to begin with online shopping.

There is a good news though. Chitika now is introducing CPC (Cost Per Click) program called Chitika Premium. Unfortunately it accept traffics only from Canada and USA and furthermore the traffic should come from search engine. That’s why it can be used along side Google AdSense.

I start using it since several days back in this blog a start earning a little penny a day. Not bad. Compared to the eMinimalls CPA scheme this one is better.

So, if some of your search-engine-based visitors come from Canada or America you better try this Chitika Premium. If haven’t signed-up, join it here.

If you join chitika premium ads program and have a self-hosted wordpress blog, you’d better install Chitika Wordpress Plugins for making it easier for you.

First off what Chitika Premium is:
Chitika|Premium is a CPC search-targeted advertising solution brought to you by Chitika. It can be run on the same page as Google AdSense, or on its own as an AdSense alternative.

* Chitika|Premium ads target your US and Canada search engine traffic
* Chitika offers more than 20 ad unit sizes to fit your needs
* You do need to sign up with Chitika in order to earn money through Chitika|Premium ads
How the plugins works:
This plugin allows you to easily change the display of your Chitika|Premium ads through a settings page in the WordPress admin interface. It allows you to change any of the following features:

Can I Put the Ads along side AdSense?

Of course, as mentioned above you can join both Adsense and Chitika and put them all at the sampe page.

Google just launches AdSense for domains:
This product allows publishers to earn revenue through ads placed on undeveloped domains.

With AdSense for domains, users can find relevant information rather than see empty pages or “page not found” errors. Today we present ads, links, and search results on the pages, and may add other useful information in the future. To ensure positive user experience and the quality of our network, these sites are monitored for policy compliance and prohibited from using text and images designed to confuse users.

In another word, domain parking can use adsense from now on.
