MarketBanker Review

by Paul on August 12th, 2004

MarketBanker is a site for people wishing to use text ads on their own sites, but don’t want to go through the hassle of managing inventory and payments. The ads resemble Google’s Adsense, but you are left in control of the price.

Features include:

  • Instant, free setup
  • No software to install, just 4 lines of HTML need to be included in your pages
  • You set pricing for your site
  • Accept all major credit cards
  • Small, non-intrusive text links
  • Approve or reject each link for your site
  • Automated link start and expiration
  • Track success with MarketBanker statistics (real-time)
  • Have your site included in MarketBanker’s site directory

The site’s in Nick Denton’s Gawker Empire use MarketBanker to control their text ads. They take 25% of whatever you earn, which might seem like a lot, but they do take a lot of the work out of the process.

I find that for small sites where you are not charging a large amount for your ads $10-$20/wk then you might be better off just taking payments yourself as I do with the CSS Vault.
