[...] The third advertising service I’ve used is Performancing Partners, which I’ve only recently implemented. There’s not a lot of information out there about them, so research is fairly thin. I can tell you that they’ve got tons of publishers (it’s ultra-easy to setup) but very few advertisers. Darren Rowse at ProBlogger has done a quick review, Performancing Partners Sends First Payments. [...]

Hello Darren:

You are showing one ad and one house ad. Have you selected one or two ads?

The question is to know if the house ad is an addendum to your ad, or not.

Thank you

Kashmiri Nomad, i wouldn’t presume to tell you what you can and cannot do with your own blog, nor dictate how you talk about us, or the fact that you use us for advertising.

It’s your blog. Do what makes sense…

Does that mean we are allowed to tell visitors that they can advertise on our blogs? I know that adsense does not allow any mention of self promotion. Is it the same case with perfromancing partners ?

Congrats Darren. I guess its all a question of stats and daily visitors! Keeping my fingers crossed.

That’s pretty much how we feel Thilak, PP is a *community* project, and it will take the will and desire of the community (as well as a little patience) to make it truly successful.

Unfortunately we cant garantee any blog wil get ads, ever. That’s just not how it works, but for those that have the right kind of audience, the right kind of placement, and can help themselves by letting their readers know that they can advertise, it will all come together.

[...] Interesting to note that Darren from problogger got his first payment from performancing partners today. And I quote: It wasn’t a massive amount (in the mid ‘three figure’ range) but not bad for a first month. [...]

I am with Antoine on this one. I have been running PP on my blog for about two weeks now with no nibbles from advertisers. The impression I get from PP is that there are thousands of blogs available for ads, but only a very small, select number of advertisers, and these advertisers seem to be going for the very ‘high-exposure’ blogs. This results in 95% of the inventory, consisting of low-traffic blogs, is getting left out to dry. I am thinking about taking the PP code off of my site, and pursuing other monetization methods.

Daren, I’d really appreciate if you could give us a hint/tip on how you actually get those ad spaces sold :( I had mine (Both performancing and AdBright) running for some time and never sold one although I am setting prices low.
Thanks
