Google Adsense Vs Adbrite
November 7, 2005
Stumble it!I want to make a quick review between Adsense and Adbrite.
1. Adsense does not accept Casino, adult and Viagra sites. Adbrite does.
2. If you have a site which is high traffic like Humour where adsense your earnings is low, with adbrite your earnings will be great. Good examples: Big-Boys.com with Over 490,000 Unique visitors and FriendSter.com with Over 620,000, Unique visitors. Those two sites are a low earning with Adsense (proved) but with adbrite their earnings are thousands of dollars per month (may be per day!)
3. Customer care, I will not say that Google Adsense does not have a good customer care, but adbrite is Great! Pud, I will congratulate you about this great support team.
4. With Google adsense you can not sell Ad space in your site, but with Adbrite you can create your own Price and Packages. Also adbrite provide you with Network ads (as Google adsense).
5. Google adsense pay monthly, Adbrite pay 60-days.
6. With Google adsense you can not play with your code, with adbrite, you can add any style that you want. Play with it!
7. You can put Adsense and Adbrite code both, Without any problem.
8. A Small note: Adbrite works great in forums 
9. With adbrite the seller has a great advantage showing what the site provides. As unique visitors, Page views, Origin of traffic, Avg cost per click (eCPC), Site Category, Alexa rank, Repurchase rate, Conversion Score, AdBrite since, What CPC can I expect?, Ad zone description, and much more.

Adbrite is great but the Adbrite support team is non existant.
They have never answered *any* of my queries.
The google support does answer queries.
Thanks

I have both Adsense and AdBrite on my site, although I never had to contact AdSense’s customer support, I really like the support ad AdBrite.
I had a lot of custom requests and they always answered me within 24 hours.

Adbrite rocks!
April 21st, 2006 at 6:00 pm
“Adbrite is great but the Adbrite support team is non existant.”
Truly awful. We have emailed them several times, phoned their answerphone and even tried ‘live chat’: zip response to the lot.
We just want one question answering prior to signing up!!!!
We’ve moved on. If they can’t be bothered responding now, what faith can we have if we joined and needed them? Waste of space.

I admit that AdBrite all in all is ok, but the payments are issued on a net-60 basis (SIXTY DAYS). Isnt it too much?

AdBrite Review
After having one of my sites banned from AdSense, I decided to test a number of alternate advertising programs. AdBrite (aff link) was the first program that I tried. AdBrite sign up is quick and painless. As soon as you are accepted to the program…
September 24th, 2006 at 9:54 am
AdBrite works pretty good for some sites (adult, humour, …), but they also have disadvantages:
- Net60 payout
- Bad email support (I suggest using the live chat, which always works for me, Katie is a great help)
- Sometimes bugs appear in their system or they make drastic changes, which cause you to lose direct ads. This in turns makes your CPC higher (because there are less clicks). This has happened to me a few times and it really sucks. It’s hard to get to your previous revenue.
I wrote some AdBrite tips here:

Adbrite as of now it good, lets see how they can serve more better than adsense in the comming days……
Publishers can take advantage of pictures and invideo, wonderful service from Adbrite….. no one can beat them in the category
June 14th, 2007 at 6:19 pm
Adbrite have been improving their services for the past few months and I am happy about that. More competition means more money and diversification for publishers and/or website owners
August 5th, 2007 at 11:12 am
I put adbrite up on my website in hopes to promote it. A couple things to note: many of the websites that my ad was on, were JUNK sites or were on a .RU (Russian) domain, which would redirect to a .COM. Many of these websites didn’t even have ads on them when I went and manually looked. Several more had “Page coming soon” links throughout the site. Who knows where the traffic was actually coming from (Note the above post about the trojan). The bottom line: ADBRITE IS A SCAM – AVOID THIS AT ALL COST!
August 5th, 2007 at 6:06 pm
This article was created in november 2005, adbrite was good. But I have to say that adbrite is going down it seems that many advertiser are not interested in their system. They have to make something to survive adbrite. Or may be there are more publishers than advertisers?
October 10th, 2007 at 9:43 pm
I was running Adsense before and now I am moving to AdBrite and AdToll. Both are quite nice alternatives to Adsense. I personally prefer AdBrite because it provides the ability to customize, change layout to fit your needs. Adsense has tons of restrictions and you are at the mercy of automated Adsense system. With AdBrite you can select ads based on price.
AdBrite wins!!
November 3rd, 2007 at 5:39 am
i am going to test adbrite.
January 31st, 2008 at 7:11 pm
jhmm… i’ll try AdBrite, sounds nice.
February 5th, 2008 at 10:36 am
i was confused earlier, but now i am a bit confident to use Adbrite….
February 5th, 2008 at 10:37 am
THANKYOU …..
February 6th, 2008 at 11:03 am
i would like to know the difference in revenues.
February 11th, 2008 at 10:12 pm
AdBrite sounds like a good option. I’ll be using it on my website (http://www.animmorpg.com) from now on. Thank you for creating such good article.
April 6th, 2008 at 3:10 pm
Dear friends,i’m going to launch a free question/answer site where i’ll give payment ..can u pl advice which one will be good for cpm based network?As google adsense is not giving much as cpm ad,so which one will be better and popup.

April 8th, 2008 at 12:55 am
Thanks for ur reply Google lady,yes i checked that,but i need personal suggestion from own experience if any body knows it by using..
April 23rd, 2008 at 4:24 pm
i have no idea about adbrite but i know more about google adsense,the CPC is very high compare to other networks……..
April 23rd, 2008 at 4:26 pm
any one can tell me how much they are getting from adbrite ……per 1000 visits???
April 27th, 2008 at 5:01 pm
I have an experience with adsence but my friends are doing very well with adbrite and now i am planning to sell them some of my space.. however they in 60 days but payouts are very good.
May 9th, 2008 at 12:58 am
I decided to try AdBrite and I was appalled when I woke up the next day to find that they went ahead and put graphic porn ads on my non-adult websites. They have not provided any explanation, so I immediately changed my ads back to Google.
June 6th, 2008 at 6:36 pm
I had my adsense account shut down twice now for no apparent reason. I have placed adsense in the recycle bin. I have tested many other ad networks since, and most of them are disappointing. Adbrite is the first positive replacement that I have found so far. Adbrite is less contextual than adsense and gets lower CTR, it also takes a few hours before your ads become active with adbrite. The benefits with adbrite come from the fact that you can view detailed stats for every ad shown in your ad space and reject ads that don’t perform well. This means that you have to do more manual labor by monitoring your ad stats, but theoretically you could out perform adsense on CPM by carefully adjusting which ads are accepted and which ads are rejected when using adbrite. I think Adbrite has potential, but I’m yet to see if it ultimately pays better than adsense.
June 13th, 2008 at 4:04 am
Same case like Donald Harkness happend to me.
I immediately switch to Adbrite.
This program is the best one.
June 16th, 2008 at 5:07 pm
It looks like you work for adbrite. You said tons of good things about adbrite and not a single good point about google adsense.
June 17th, 2008 at 5:40 am
There is BritPic from adbrite from which you can earn revenues from your pictures
June 18th, 2008 at 8:44 am
Following your advice, I am going to test Adbrite in my new website. I saw that Adbrite +adsense is easy tto set up
Thanks!
July 1st, 2008 at 11:20 am
is putting adbrite on a site with adsense will affect the earning of adsense?
August 8th, 2008 at 5:16 am
Unfortunately i don’t have a success story but i will tell you my own experience with them.
In short, Adbrite ripped me off!!! I decided to give them a try and advertise my website in their marketplace and after i signed up and created my campaign then a while later i was trying to do some edits and i paused it but even though i did they kept charging my credit card for over 3 days after and i e-mailed their support million of times to get a refund with no use
Moreover, the quality of traffic they bring is useless cheap junk traffic.
Whether you are going to advertise in their marketplace or monetize your website traffic..Do yourself a favor and STAY AWAY FROM THEM!
September 16th, 2008 at 1:18 pm
I run both adsense and adbright. My adsense ads are better positioned and get more clicks – yet adbright consistently pays out twice as much, for less clicks.
My site gets about 6,000 hits a day, yet on some days, adsense pays out .10 cents if I get only a few clicks. Yet on that same day, I’ll make $2 to $3 on adbright ads.
Adsense might have been strong in the past – thus making a good name initially, but proof is in the pudding…. I think adsense may now be using is popularity as a sort of mini monopoly…while adsense is trying to increase it’s market share. Which do you think will pay you more?
September 30th, 2008 at 12:37 am
In 2006 you were not allowed to have Adsense and Adbrite on the same page. But that is okay now. Also Adbrite pays out much better.
December 11th, 2008 at 5:15 am
Please Guide Me I shall go with Adbrite or not? if yes then Y? if no then Y? I truly appreciate your favor.
January 10th, 2009 at 1:14 pm
Hmmmmmmmmm i think Adbrite is Rock Also Adbrite pays out much better then adsense.
and no i am not gonna beleive that they never answer Email ? i emailed them lots of times and get back in 3 to 5 hours.
February 9th, 2009 at 12:10 am
Yes. They have 24/7 support team ready to answer questions. Unfortunately, some members aren’t answer within 24 hours. But the company is good.
February 12th, 2009 at 5:26 pm
Adbrite has worked very well for my small company where adsense has given me few results. I would recommend adbrite anyday before adsense.
February 20th, 2009 at 4:47 pm
Thanks for posting this. Im doing quite well with AdBrite at the moment, would highly recomend it
February 23rd, 2009 at 1:36 pm
Thank you for your review of the AdBrite program. We appreciate you sharing your opinion and doing the research needed to fairly evaluate the service. We have seen fit to link to this article in our independent AdBrite Reviews section. Anyhow, keep up the good work spreading truth.

I’m going to give a try for Adbrite + Adsense, and how it goes!
March 18th, 2009 at 10:50 pm
At first I thought AdBrite was great, it’s an easy layout.
Set up was simple (ps: i use it for advertising products i promote not the other way around)
I was getting clicks with it.
Then I checked the stats of where they put the ads.
Demonoid was the first thing I saw, I saw foreign sites which got redirected as somebody mentioned earlier.
I have no idea how a torrent site and all these other sites have anything to do with the categories I selected.
it would be very helpful if somebody could post a GOOD ppc service, because AdBrite was my original escape from AdWords. I need something else now. PLEASE
April 29th, 2009 at 6:38 am
I would never recommend Adbrite! I try Adsense, Adbrite and Adsense + Adbrite in one of my website. Adbrite payout is so little, just the 10% of Google Adsense. I’m now stick to Google Adsense only!
July 21st, 2009 at 3:41 am
I would be very careful with some of adbrites adverts especially the full page advert. Google adsense does not like some of the adbrites adverts and the ones like the full page advert violates adsense terms of service. As adsense IS very strict your site could result in being banned – so be careful.
July 21st, 2009 at 11:55 pm
Adbrite Rules..Adsense sucks.. I’ve gotten a $95 for 3 months with adsense but before i received my PIN they disabled my account.With Adbrite i’m enjoying my CPM i have a $5-8 per day without any clicks..just the impressions…
so what are you waiting for?sign Up now!

July 23rd, 2009 at 9:42 am
I currently use adsense and I get around $40 a day
e.g.: yesterday: 186799 page views, 598 clicks = $40.92, meaning 0.06 per click not counting in the minor cpm income
would adbrite give better results ?
August 22nd, 2009 at 5:41 pm
Hi guys!
It is now August 2009 – has anything about Adbrite conditions changed a lot since the original article was written???
I have a blog in English, but it is in Denmark, as I am Danish. Would Adbrite be good for me????
Thanks
September 15th, 2009 at 11:00 am
Will i get penalize if i put Google and Adbrite together?
September 15th, 2009 at 11:22 am
No Selangor.
September 19th, 2009 at 4:15 am
I will try Adbrite. Let me see the difference and hope you are right.
September 19th, 2009 at 6:40 am
I want to know that is Adsense provides content ads (ads in my content) like inline ads of Adbrite?
September 25th, 2009 at 9:11 am
I tried adsense and found O.K. Now i will go with ad brite and let’s see the difference.
October 5th, 2009 at 9:33 pm
I used to get high earnings with Adsense, up to $35 per day – then one day, pennies on the dollar.
I am test Adbrite for about a week on my high traffic social site – let’s see where it goes from there..
October 31st, 2009 at 7:18 pm
adsense has crap support. i had problem and i e-mailed them hundreds of times but they never responded so i was forced to change to sombdy else
December 3rd, 2009 at 7:20 pm
I am searching for Adsense alternatives and then came across this site. My AS account was banned just before reaching min payout for no apparant reason. What’d be the best alternative to AS? Adbite, Clicksor, Bidvertiser, Chitika, AdToll or YPN? Possible to share some of the experiences with these ads network?
December 5th, 2009 at 9:41 pm
It’s easy to sign up at adbrite, not like Adsense.
December 14th, 2009 at 8:19 am
i used adsense i got 1 check of 121$ but adsense pay very less my this month earning is like 8997imp +360clicks and my earning is 36 only now i join adbrite its is good only one problem i have with adbrite that it show earning after a several hour instead of this adsense shows after a minute
December 19th, 2009 at 10:13 am
I’ll try put adbrite on my blog
This is my first I blog ever made. Adbrite approved it, but Adsense reject it. Now I’m trying to find about Adbrite services. Thanks for your article!
December 25th, 2009 at 8:38 pm
Does anyone know if adbrite pay anything just by showing the full pay ads, or if they have to be clicked.
January 8th, 2010 at 5:47 am
I just added Adsense, Chitika, and AdBrite all at the same time on my website. When I add Kontera all the ads turn off. Sad.
February 24th, 2010 at 3:35 am

can you help me please…
March 4th, 2010 at 3:33 pm
Googlelady.. u really great…
this article placed on nov 2005.. and its still refreshing a new updated with so many usefull comments…
now i cleared my doubts … i’m using google adsense from so many years but not that much of earning with out clicks… now i’m creating adbrite login.. i will check in my website Jaganinfo.com
March 12th, 2010 at 8:15 am
my adsense got blocked today, how can i retrieve it. actually i have 15 cybercafes where i sated my own pages as homepage. but ….. after 5 days ………
March 25th, 2010 at 12:05 pm
I am currently trying AdBrite out on my new blog. I have only had it up a few days, and it seems ok. I just had to made sure I limit the ads to “family-friendly ads only” to ensure the ads are safe for kids too.
So far however, Adbrite seems to be pretty good. I do know in some niches Google Adsense is just better then the rest, but I think this depends on the niche though.
I have heard if you have high page views that AdBrite can earn you a good bit.
April 19th, 2010 at 4:33 pm
I’m a little leery with Adbrite, they don’t have the reputation behind them like Adsense. I do like that you can insert your adsense code in their’s and it will throttle the ads for you.
April 21st, 2010 at 9:57 pm
For me, adbrite is better than adsense. I have been using both for 2 weeks now but adsense hasn’t give me any earnings yet but adbrite? they has!
April 30th, 2010 at 9:49 am
Hi,
Could Adbrite provide prove regarding Invalid Clicks or Impressions.I assure,i did not click on
the advertisement provided by adbrite..Wonder how adbrite find invalid click and page impression on my website…Guys Adbrite gets policy not to pay their publishers.How invalid adbrite works in this era?
Here E.mail Of Adbrite’s Team
Hello,
Your account is in violation of AdBrite’s Terms and Conditions. As such, you are not eligible to receive payment for the invalid clicks or impressions on your account.
The earnings from these clicks have been invalidated and refunded to advertisers upon receipt of a complaint.
Best Regards,

These Guys Are not paying $120 due
Should I sue them
June 7th, 2010 at 6:24 am
wow such useful comments – the article was interesting but i’d like to put my 2cents in. I haven’t tried google adsense, but i have tried adbrite. Adbrite has been good to me, but sometimes you get clicks that dont generate and revenue – this confuses me. I’ve heard that adsense pays out more but it depends on how your website rates – if its high on the SEPRs page for that topic it can pay more. i haven’t tested this – i’d love to hear from someone who has recently.
adsense doesn’t have an adult advertising partner – otherwise I would try it, but the biggest revenue sites i have are adult and i was to use the same affiliate so i can get to the minimum cheque amount faster – maybe i will do more experimentation once my other sites get more traffic…
hope that helps someone.
June 29th, 2010 at 10:08 am
I`ve been using adsense for over 2 years now and i`m considering switching to another company because of the 0.01 clicks that google adsense has more and more of them. I barely get 10 cents out of 5 clicks … this is just … sad … i used to like adsense but now considering giving adbrite a chance.
July 29th, 2010 at 9:16 am
soooo…what is the conclusion??
August 5th, 2010 at 5:42 pm
Thanks for the article and all the commenters. I’m in the middle of revamping several websites and blogs. One of the question I’m trying to answer for myself is what ad network to use. Currently, I’m only using AdSense. I’ve been exposed to AdBrite’s sister network BlackLabelAds for one of my sites. So it’s good to see how the AdBrite side of things are comparing to AdSense.
August 12th, 2010 at 2:15 pm
I used to use Adsense till they decided to stop paying me checks one day because my site wasn’t ranking to their liking and new algorithms.
Now using adbrite and they have truly been great, the clicks are really high priced including the banner ones.
They also allow you to sell spaces on your site through their network!
August 21st, 2010 at 3:25 am
i question adbrite because, it says 14 thousand views and 1 click and it have me 78 cents???
September 10th, 2010 at 12:20 am
I used adbrite couple of months already…
and it seems great for my site…
Hassle free…
you can customize the patterns…
Good support to publishers…
Adbrite is great!
September 12th, 2010 at 9:52 am
Adsense displays ads which are 90% relevent to the webpage content but adbrite displays ads which are totally irrelevant.
October 11th, 2010 at 1:22 pm
Adbrite’s new user interface sucks!
You cannot log-in or send a contact or support request email to them and this is the only contact avenue offered.
October 31st, 2010 at 6:22 am
I love AdBrite and absolutely detest Google – who is becoming the Evil Company lately.
I have both but if AdSense ditched tomorrow, it wouldn’t bother me at all as I see huge potential with AdBrite. Their customer service is awesome too.
November 10th, 2010 at 12:22 pm
Thank very very much for this , i was really looking for something to replace adsense , i’ll give this adbrite a test.
I love the idea to customize the code as much as i prefer!
January 1st, 2011 at 10:39 am
adbrite always says “your ad here” and no ads display….
thumbs down to adbrite
August 12th, 2011 at 11:00 pm
I have a lot of image traffic and Adbrite pays me 2-3 times more than adsense ( for just 2 720/90 versus 3 big spots for adsense). Also A LOT of clicks that I see on statcounter for adsense aren’t paid for , not the case with adbrite.
August 24th, 2011 at 3:42 pm
adbrite policies are modified now and its not easy to get adbrite ads….and after getting ads, the ads keep showing your ad here….adbrte is now useless
September 7th, 2011 at 1:47 am
Adbrite Review:
Dont go for Adbrite. They support is very bad. you can earn money but if you got some problem you wont get the solution from them,
Waste of Service.
Their only motive is Money Money Money.
Its not suitable for everyone.
September 23rd, 2011 at 6:17 am
I think adsense is better than adBrite!! But the problem is, adsense doesn’t support all sites.. spatially indian and asian sites..
October 30th, 2011 at 7:23 am
Just started with adbrite after a year with adsense and some affiliate advertising.
On the surface one of the big positives (and this addresses the no ads to display issue) is that you can set an rpm and below that it can display alternate ads.
So mine are set up to show adbrite unless there are none or they are low value in which case it displays my adense or affiliate ads. You cant lose really. Get mutliple ad streams covered in the one space
November 3rd, 2011 at 7:05 pm
Adbrite is better. When somebody clicks more times on your google ads they will ban you.
November 8th, 2011 at 3:36 pm
i haven’t used adbrite before but i would love to try this.. as you all trying to say adbrite is best for all site but if i have other ads like local companies. does adbrite support my site? i mean show other ads beside adbrite reply soon
