Anyone here using Outbrain?

Am wondering if anyone has used Outbrain as a publisher or advertiser?

If so, could you spare a few words from your experience please?

    Hi, been using OutBrain for weeks now. I love their dashboard as it show how many impressions, clicks and the budget you spent so far. It also tells you where your article was showed/recommended, UI wise it is OK. However, most of the clicks come from countries way beyond my target. Most of the clicks comes from India and Philippines and they are not big spenders on "Digital goods". I prefer US and UK visitors but they rarely come to my site.

    I had a brief go with OutBrain. You can only promote certain types of content on there so I didn't find it very good for bringing in customers for my products. Also it was expensive for my niche (finance/trading).

    I think it works best for content based sites like buzzfeed-type sites or online magazines. If the page your promoting has enough ads on it, it might do well for you.
