Project Wonderful

You may notice the new Advertise Here widget on the right side of the page. I decided to give it a try on this blog and see how it works out. I’ve noticed a lot of people are starting to use this as a revenue stream and some are making a couple of dollars with it. I don’t expect to make a lot of money since as I looked through the system there are some fairly high profile sites with a small bid price on their ads. I figure it will be more of a method of providing my regular readers a chance to advertise their sites on No Nonsense Internet Tips easily. I’ve been asked about providing adspots in the past but really did not want to take the time to manage the ads. I did install OpenAds and played with that a little and I am using that program to manage ads on some of my other sites, but I really did not want to manage that here. I would rather spend my time here writing posts and not much on the management side of the house, so Project Wonderful is great for that. They handle all the backend and all I need to do is to paste some code and approve the ads. Well at the moment this is a great time to bid as I don’t have any bidders at the moment so your ad would basically run for free. That’s a great price :-)

I really joined because of this little loophole. I’m finding some great sites that I can advertise on and it won’t cost an arm and a leg to get my ads. This is really a lot cheaper than you can get with Adwords, so why not give it a try. I’ll report back in a few days and let you know how its going. Of course you will be able to tell, if the adspots are not full then I’ll be heart broken :-)

Nice article! I came across a blog yesterday which had also a widget with advertise here for a couple of dollors! So I went searching how it works, and I joined the projectwonderful.com! Let’s see how good it works!

Aww, I was going to advertise, but you set it to “safe for children only” =( Oh well, I still love Project Wonderful!

Well I had it set to either, but then there where so many requests for sites that where purely adult in nature. I got tired of rejecting them so I just flipped the switch. I think I’m going to cancel all the ads and raise the starting price and hopefully that will stop some of the racy adverts from being requested.

Hi Bruce,

What kind of advertising would you like to attract? Perhaps if we knew that, we’d know how to spend our money with you.

Ah! Project Wonderful! I just signed up for this one too!

My Ads space for Project Wonderful are at the very bottom and so far no one has bothered to bid on them yet. -_-

I think Project Wonderful Ads from fellow EntreCarders ought to be okay.

I would rather spend my time here writing posts
I agree! Content is King!

Hey Bruce,
Have you tried Aductions.com? I checked them out after seeing a review on Johnchow.com. I must say i like their business model much better than Project Wonderful’s. The only negative thus far is that they are new. Plus i think they pay funds as soon as an ad is served on your site. So we don’t need to wait X amount of days to get paid.

@Shari, I’m not real picky as I said I wanted to give my regular readers a chance to advertise. I just would not want any links that would be considered pornographic by my grandmother.

I went ahead and canceled all the current bods, since I think I understand a little more about how my settings should be setup. If you had an ad approved, please re-submit and I’ll approve it again.

I changed the setting from children only to not to accept ads fro NSFW sites. Lets see if that works better.

@Kevin, No I have not tried them. I’ll take a look and see what its all about.
