What is the point of Kontera?

its "in text advertising" which pays a couple of pennies per click and that's it!

I'm almost embarrassed to have joined in the first place.

They didn't say how low the pay rate was when signing . . . no wonder, because IT SURE IS LOW!!

    I personally feel Kontera is a waste of time and will refuse to put it on my sites. Not only is the pay worthless but they make your site look like ****!

    I pay my car payment with Kontera. I've been with them for over 3 years now. Not very intrusive and very reliable.

    Don't bother with it if you don't get much traffic. This is pretty much for only high traffic sites

  • Is Kontera the one that uses anchor links and pays for clicks?

      interestingly I also said something like this on Kontera on facebook and I got the same kind of response from someone who worked for Kontera.

      so clearly, Kontera constantly scans the web for things like what I'm saying.

      The pay rate is so low that there's no point in even putting it on a high traffic website (for a few pennies per click, when it makes your website look crappier?!)

    Hi,

    I've using Kontera for many months and I find it to be a good little bonus on top of my adsense earnings. The pay rate does appear to be quite small but I'm using this to supplement many other revenue sources.

    You should also note the content of your website, because like adsense different keywords pay different amounts; at least that's my understanding. Your website maybe focused on a low paying niche an that could explain your poor performance.

    Get in touch with Kontera I've found that these guys are on the ball and are actually interesting in helping people, have you ever tried to contact the adsense team

    Below is a video I made showing how I make around $10 per month with Kontera it might be worth watching.


    Regards
    Lee

    Can I use Kontera and Infolinks on the same site/webpages?

    Hello

    Firstly to answer your question latestnewsheadline, it is against our TOS to use Kontera and Infolinks on the same site. This is because if two or more In-Text providers want to place over a particular ad, only one will actually appear and you won't get an accurate picture of how well Kontera can perform on your site.

    Uleesgold- we monitor for all comments about Kontera on the web. We value our publisher's opinions, and believe it is important both to listen to what our publishers are saying and to be there to answer support related questions.

    Regarding Kontera's performance on your specific site, there;s a variety of reasons a particular ad does or doesn't appear on your site including the topic of your site, the location of your readers as our ads are geo targeted, advertisers preferences, and what ad campaigns are currently running. While Kontera has an exclusive ad inventory from some of the biggest brand names in the world, including Microsoft, L'Oreal, Ford, HP, Sprint, Oreo, McDonald's, and more. While there premium, often Rich-Media ads offer the best possible CPC, it's possible that for one of the reasons above, we didn't have relevant ads for your content

    Kontera is a great solution for most publisher, but because we put such a high premium on relevancy, it's not a good fit for all niches. It's possible that your site, just isn't for Kontera.

    Again, if you would like to contact me, I can have an account manager look at your account and give you a definitive answer.

    Thanks

    David
