BrightAds Helps You Earn Money from RSS Feeds

Kanoodle, a search-advertising specialist, wants to help turn blogging into small business.

On Monday, the company introduced a self-service system that lets online publishers pair advertising with their RSS feeds. Called BrightAds RSS (after the technology format known as Really Simple Syndication), the service takes advantage of Kanoodle’s keyword advertising system to match Web content to relevant ads. Once a publisher signs up, an advertising link will piggyback on its syndicated feed sent to third-party news readers.

And with the help of Moreover Technologies, the service will offload a publisher’s infrastructure demands of delivering RSS feeds to hundreds or thousands of readers. Moreover’s technology will do the work.

Thought:
The BrightAds RSS is just on time! I was looking a way to integrate Google Adsense into RSS feed. There was a guy succeed but then Google asked him to took down the script. Perhaps Google is not ready for RSS feed yet?

On the other hand, FeedBurner has an option to integrate Amazon ads into your RSS feed, with condition that 20% of the ads will belong to FeedBurner. It is easy, but doesn’t seems to work. Amazon only pay you if somebody bought products via your site. It does not pay you for click on the ads.

How many Malaysians(Asians?) will buy a product from a blog link? So, it does not work for me in a few days trial. I have removed it. LiewCF.com RSS feed is now ads free.

I have signed up BrightAds RSS, waiting for it to review my site now. :)

Beside the new Ads in RSS service, BrightAds has pay-per-click text ads(just like Google Adsense) program, too. The program policy is quite loose and (I feel) better than Google Adsense. Example: Unlimited ads in a page, every Ads is paid, other ad programs are allowed, etc. Most importantly, EVERY website is qualified, no matter what is your site content! Good news for adult site webmaster, maybe? ;)

Note that BrightAds choose ads by topics, not by keywords. Therefore, you will not get unrelated or funny ads at your website. :)

I will test the BrightAds RSS later. I need your support, please subscribe to site feed! Thank you.
