Just when you thought every ad program idea had been exhausted – Auction Ads (aff.) comes into the picture! Auction Ads is the new service released by ShoeMoney and MediaWhiz (the owners of Text Link Ads). Here is a quick quote from ShoeMoney’s blog post:

“AuctionAds is a revolutionary advertising network that allows publishers to create new revenue streams. It pumps even more revenue out of each click. The ads displayed are keyword targeted since the webmaster selects the specific keywords that are appropriate for his site. Even the most focused, niche site can earn money with AuctionAds.”

Auction Ads has the look and feel of a Google Adsense Ads but they are really eBay affiliate ads. What a great idea! I decided to go ahead and sign up for Auction Ads and give it a test run. Here is a sample of what an ‘Auction Ad’ looks like.

Registration for Auction Ads was a breeze and I literally had ads displayed in five minutes. So far they seem to be products targeted to my keywords! Good stuff. I’m planning on implementing this into some of my niche sites (which is where this program should shine) soon.Darren Rowse write up a very detailed post about Auction Ads if you are looking for some more in depth reviews. I’ll come back in a few weeks with a follow up post on my initial reviews of Auction Ads and how they fit into my sites. In the meantime – sign up (aff) and happy earnings!
