Yahoo’s Answer To AdSense?
Andy Baio has the scoop, thanks to some good old fashioned investigative journalism: Yahoo appears to be testing out a contextual ad program for small websites, like Google’s AdSense. The evidence is pretty solid; Overture ads are appearing on one well-connected blog, and Yahoo has been serving RSS ads for Boing Boing. The site ads are delivered by a JavaScript file called “ypn.js”, which may refer to the Yahoo Publisher Network. Maybe Jerry Yang will announce it at tomorrow’s SES keynote… Wouldn’t that be a story…
Oh, and John Battelle all but says “Andy found it”.
UPDATE: Dirson found that publisher.yahoo.com (Yahoo! Publishing Products and Services / Yahoo Publisher Network) now exists, although there’s nothing there yet. You can leave your email address for more information.
I’ve been saying Yahoo’s network will rise to the number two position if/when it’s released for small publishers. Should we be on the look out for an MSNsense?

I am working with them from 6 mounts and have very good results with very high CPC.
They also provide text and products ads.
