Best Bet For an Adsense Alternative: Media.net

I can't believe I didn't see this email before from Media.net, but I just noticed it because of another email I got from them saying they were migrating my account to their new platform which uses the Yahoo and Bing advertising networks! Here is a snippet from their email:

Yahoo! (NASDAQ:YHOO) and Media.net today announced a long-term agreement to launch Yahoo! Bing Network Contextual Ads program. This new program aims to provide web publishers with a powerful and effective new solution for earning advertising revenue. Publishers can now use the Media.net platform to create and customize ad units that display relevant text ads from across the Yahoo! Bing Network. We believe that Yahoo! holds a key leadership position in online advertising and teaming up with them allows Media.net to offer web publishers with a solution that generates additional revenue for them and provides customization, control and flexibility that they would like.

This is great for those of us who have been burned by Adsense and were never given a good explanation  Being able to display ads from Yahoo and Bing has got to be the next best thing right?

Well I just replaced the ads around Bauer-Power with Media.net ads, so we'll see how it goes. Ever since getting kicked off of Adsense a few months ago I've been running Technorati Media ads which have only performed at about 25% of what Adsense did.

Much like Adsense, I am still able to use Technorati's ad code as a backup if Media.net doesn't have an ad to run. That is some good news. Plus the Media.net portal is easy to use and you can stay up to date on your earnings and performance.

So what do you think? Will running Yahoo and Bing ads be a great alternative to Google's Adsense? Let me know what you think in the comments!
