Adwords vs. Adcenter

13 years ago

I am interested to see if others agree with me.

I'm going to say adcenter strictly because you can get on live chat and they can help you fix your problems if you have a TOS violation.

Adwords is super tough to get a landing page approved - you get 3 strikes and your out. You are banned for life. I'm on my 4th account and protecting it with my life.

Adwords has a better conversion rate, but what good is that if I can't get my ad to run? I'm even starting to put Facebook PPC over adwords, they are just making it so hard.

If you had your own product....then Adwords is the best, but being an affiliate it's just way harder to get a campaign running then it needs to be.

Just my 2 cents.

Hi there Capp,

Maybe this is a bit off topic but how good are facebook ads? Or are you just checking them?

I have seen that there are some who are selling WSO about how to get cheap adword clicks (1 - 2 cents). How is that possible if in google keyword tool the minimal cost per click is $ 0.1 not $0.01

Adwords will get you more clicks, but at a higher price.

Adcenter is cheaper, but I find the quality to be a little lower.

Do you know that from your own experience?

Hey Ice T,

I have ran about 20 campaigns on facebook, and it's the only PPC platform where I have been able to get an email zip submit to become profitable.

I am getting clicks for .07 - and the payout is $1.35. I have two of those that have been running for about 2 months. I've tried a lot of split testing, but I could not get the other campaigns lower then $.20 which was too high to convert.

Adcenter I haven't had any luck....yet.

I hope that helps.

So you are saying that from these 3 (adwords, adcenter and facebook) facebook is the best?

I totally agree. Even though it seems like adCenter is becoming much more strict about their policies lately, the difference is that they will help you get back up and running if you've been shut down for a violation. My account has been paused twice, but I've been able to continue each time after making some adjustments.

I had my Adwords account banned over a year ago, and I've actually had more success with adCenter as my main traffic source.

I've been staying away from Facebook for fear of eventually getting my account banned their as well, but maybe I'm just being overly cautious.

Thanks

I heard the conversions are meant to be higher on Bing as people who use Bing are not as Internet Savvy as people who use Google.

Kinda rings true when you when you think about. Bing by default runs on Internet Explorer which comes with.... Yup you guessed it... Windows which owns about 90% of the desktop market.

My choice is ad-words. To reach more customers is very easy with ad-words. But little bit expensive.

I've had my account for a while now, so I don't remember the exact amount. It's very low though. Similar to Adwords and there are probably coupons floating around somewhere online.
