Are Image Ads An Alternative To Google Adsense?

Image Ads is the latest to enter the arena of providing website publishers with methods of increasing their ad revenue.

After further examination and trial usage it would appear that the folks at Image Ads have put together an ad delivery service that fills a void left by most of the current services, including the biggest of them all Google Adsense.

Here are reasons why Image Ads are gaining popularity amongst internet marketers:

1. Instead of bare text ads Image Ads delivers images related to the text ad. The image catches the eye, and as with most images we develop an emotional level to it.

So most importantly the ad gets read.

2. You pre select either by selecting from one of over 100 categories, or you pre select the keyword related to that ad.

So in effect making it a non contextual ad - thus is compatible when using with Adsense sites.

3. By category and/or keyword selection you provide your targeted visitor with targeted solutions - and when the visitor buys - the website owner gets paid as much as 75% commissions, typically $20 - $50.

That is much more than the 5 cents to $1.00 you receive from adsense ads.

4. Image Ads also uses psychological trigger of the -click here- command as an integral part of their ads.

5.When a visitor click on a link - the link opens in a new window. This is a definite advantage as it keeps your website window still open on the visitors computer.

8. Members can tweak ads to improve click thru rates.

9. Provides visitors with immediate solution - that pays the website owner a great deal more then a ppc would.

10. With over 10,000 products Image Ads does cover topics for most websites. However, there may be some topics where they do not have a product for.

11. Since most of Image Ads products are delivered by ClickBank - you get paid every 2 weeks. Image Ads definitely has several advantages over similar ad delivery systems.

Will Image Ads it replace adsense... no, I seriously doubt that.
