Because i dont want to put all my eggs in gooogle adsense basket, i was thinking of signing up for Yahoo! Publisher Network, can you do this if you are not from the US, i did sign up a few weeks ago and heard nothing back...

Any insights?:helpsmilie:

Same with me. Applied with no response.

**Tran** · 07-29-2006, 08:54 PM

No, YPN is only available to U.S. at this point in time.

i applied a while ago, i think i mentioned it in another topic, and i received and email, looked like a denial, saying something about still being in beta

I applied - tried it - no ads showed up - so I took it off. A real live American speaking phoned me and asked what I thought of it. I was surpsied.

Simply YPN is not currently accepting applications from outside US. But the wrong side is that they did'nt mentioned it on YPN Page. They only posted a press release for this while starting YPN. Anyhow they have plans to extend it to other countries.

When I first tried their ads, it takes about an hour for their bot to crawl your website. Maybe you should give it another try? :thumbup:

Can you not have a tax number outside the US, I mean are people from the US the only people who have tax ID numbers? I quote "or Tax ID number"

My content is in English and targeted at a US base....

That statement does not indicate its for US only.....:taz:
:angry:

I think alot of countries know something as a Tax ID number, but what the phrase means in my eyes is this: "valid U.S. Social Security number or valid U.S. Tax ID number".

**realjohn** · 07-31-2006, 05:32 PM

or Tax ID number is that what they said though Bas?
