New service lets blog owners earn ad revenue when visitors leave their site

New service lets blog owners earn ad revenue when visitors leave their site

Monetization is one of the big, perennial challenges for owners of blogs and other small websites, but a UK startup now has a new solution. Rather than inserting ads on the site itself — thus competing with the owner’s own content — users of GapAd display them instead when visitors leave.

Now in beta, GapAd is a service that encourages site owners to “mine the gap.” Specifically, when a website’s visitors leave to surf somewhere else, GapAd displays an ad during the few seconds it takes for the next page to appear. Blog owners begin by signing up with the service and installing a simple WordPress plug-in. Then, whenever someone clicks on an outbound link on their website, GapAd inserts a short ad in between the sites while the new page is loading. It’s up to the blog owner to decide how long the intermediate ad is shown. If the surfer clicks on the ad, meanwhile, it opens in a new window. Either way, targeting technology ensures that the ad is relevant to both the source and destination websites; it also learns over time what works best, GapAd says. A sample ad can be viewed on the GapAd site.

The Founder Jay Feeney, GapAd does not compete with AdSense or other online advertising services, the company says. However, it remains to be seen whether these ads can add value without interrupting the browsing experience. One to keep an eye on!

Product Review: MyBrowserTraffic, Explode Your Website Traffic Today!

MyBrowserTraffic, Explode Your Website Traffic Today! is a new site that says it guarantees more CONVERTING web visitors and online advertising with very little effort or cost.  So I decided to put it to the test...

My first impression was the site looks professional and clean, with an attractive look and feel.  It is easy to read and understand.  Joining the site was easy and painless--they do offer 2 upgrade options but they are not required to gain the benefits.

The Members Area is very well laid out and intuitive--I could figure out what to do after only a few minutes and was able to get up and running in less than 5 minutes.  Inside the site, you create links and ads--the links you simply enter any URL links you use into the generator and it transforms them into "MyBrowserTraffic, Explode Your Website Traffic Today!" links.  You create ads for anything you want to promote using the MyBrowserTraffic, Explode Your Website Traffic Today! Ad Generator, which is very easy to use.  You can create as many links and as many ads as you like.  And they are organized in a logical way--links are displayed in the order you create them but also your 5 most recent links appear on the main page for quick reference.  Also, since the link generator is the tool you'll use most, it is also right at the top of the main page when you login.  Very smart!

After you've created at least 1 link and 1 ad you can start to generate traffic.  Just use and promote the new MyBrowserTraffic, Explode Your Website Traffic Today! link instead of the original source link you had.  Every time the MyBrowserTraffic, Explode Your Website Traffic Today! link is clicked, the page loads followed by a cool slide-up ad window at the bottom.  It displays an ad PLUS an image with your affiliate link that goes back to MyBrowserTraffic, Explode Your Website Traffic Today!.  So if anyone clicks the MyBrowserTraffic, Explode Your Website Traffic Today! image they see the site, and if they signup they become your referral.  It's a great viral feature because you can build referrals without even trying to just by using the site.

Now every time the ad window displays (your MyBrowserTraffic, Explode Your Website Traffic Today! links get clicked) you earn credits that get YOUR ad displayed in the ad windows when other members' links get clicked.  So the more clicks, the more times your ads get displayed.

And this works virally--meaning as you make referrals into MyBrowserTraffic, Explode Your Website Traffic Today! (either by promoting it or just using it and visitors click the MyBrowserTraffic, Explode Your Website Traffic Today! image on the ad window to join) you also earn ad credits on THEIR link clicks.  And this works up to 5 levels deep.  So you can create a massive amount of free ad views and web traffic by referring others to MyBrowserTraffic, Explode Your Website Traffic Today! also.

I didn't get to test the full effect of a big downline yet (I just got the tool) but I can tell you the rest of the site works exactly as stated--my links got clicked, I earned credits, and my ads got displayed.  MyBrowserTraffic, Explode Your Website Traffic Today! even tracked my results so I know how many clicks and how many ad displays.  That was an impressive unadvertised extra feature.

There is one more benefit and feature which might be the best of them all--downline emailing.  You can email your downline with offers, promotions, or whatever you like, and here is where MyBrowserTraffic, Explode Your Website Traffic Today! really shines.  They took time to make the emailing often enough that it's valuable as a user, but no so often that it's a burden to your downline.  But the best part about this feature (and actually the credit earning too) is that it tells you exactly how long until you can mail again.  Now THAT's cool.

Overall, I have to say I am impressed with MyBrowserTraffic, Explode Your Website Traffic Today!.  It is simple yet powerful, and delivers on its promises.  Highly recommended to anyone who wants to increase traffic and advertising.
