Burst Media ads flop, CrispAds already making money

by Sapphire (June 15, 2007)

If there is a way to make money with Burst Media, I just don’t know what it is. I have it running on two sites for two days, and I didn’t earn a penny. Then I changed it to rotating with other ads I could actually make money on, and I’ve made a whole penny so far.

For some of the fugliest, most annoying ads I’ve ever seen. No, the pretty ones you see in the header? The ones that aren’t “girly” and look relatively nice? Those are Azoogle. Which I also have yet to make a penny from, but it’s CPA so that’s not so shocking. Burst, on the other hand, is supposed to be pay per impression and clicks. I think. I really don’t know what the hell it is, I just know at first I made a few bucks, then all their advertisers aside from pop-ups pharmacies and semi-naked girl ads went away.

From their interface, it looks like there’s not one single advertiser available for my sites. Unless I’m not reading things right. You used to be able to approve or exclude campaigns as you saw fit. Now when I go in there, there just aren’t any. The ads I’m getting are, I guess, some sort of run of network something.

Oh, and some of the nice-looking banner ads you’re seeing are CrispAds. They made me $0.42 yesterday on a single click on this site. My real goal is to sell ad space there, but for CPC? That’s not bad at all.
