Hi guys,

I am wondering whether there are good alternatives to Google Adsense for advertising on the website. Or should I not even bother looking at alternatives as Google is too big?

Thanks.

It depends. Where's the majority of your traffic coming from? Do you wan contextual ads or just any ads?

As per any other topic, the more information you provide the easier to get an answer.

Hi freitasm,

I would like contextual ads. Traffic is 90% from New Zealand. I am looking for something very similar to Google Ads.

I'd stick with Google AdSense then. There aren't other contextual ad networks that market to New Zealand really.

I ask because someone out there has been causing me grief. Google disabled my account because of invalid clicks. Now as a small website owner, one person can really do a lot of damage, compared to say Geekzone, where one person's actions are less significant.

From what I have read online, I am not the only one being unfairly treated.

You could try TPN for example - New Zealand-based banner ads.

TPN may not be suitable though if you are s small site not generating a lot of traffic as yet.

From their T&C....

"a) Traffic Levels
Each website must receive a minimum of 20,000 unique browsers per month and serve at least 50,000 ad impressions per month."

OK I have contacted TPN and they are going through the approval process. Are there other similar companies within NZ that are reputable and well-known?
