Yahoo Publishing Network – Coming Soon
The rumors that the new Yahoo Publishing Network (a competitor to Google’s Adsense program) have been circulating the web of the past few days on a number of blogs and forums including Webmaster World, Thread Watch and at Jensense. It looks like an announcement could be imminent.
Fueling my own speculation is a comment left here at ProBlogger by Yahoo’s Josh Stomel a few minutes ago on an older post on YPN. Josh wrote:
I will tell you what..
YPN is going to be real real hot..
Get ready…
Now maybe I’m reading a bit much into it – but I wonder if Josh is just REALLY excited about something – something that perhaps is just days, if not hours away from being announced.
Hold onto your seats contextual advertisers publishers – you might just be in for some big news.

Amen to that…competition is always a good thing, especially from a very well known brand name that most people can trust.

I used to practically ignore Yahoo, mainly because they seemed so old hat, even gamey, a bit like MSN with a hangover …. no, nothing can be as bad as that. But lately they’ve turned the whole thing round and whatever I’ve tried has been as good as, if not better than, Google and the rest. So, yep, maybe this is the one to knock AdSense into a cocked hat … but there again ….

Oooh more choice please! Although I wonder what effect, if any, it will have on earnings from AdSense?
