Hi everyone i would just like to say hi for the first time

I would like everyones views on OVERTURE and their pay per click service.

I have tried it several times on a few sites i own and it seems that they are not as good as they make out to be.

Has anyone ever used OVERTURE and if so do you rate it compared to such as looksmart's ppc !

hi leewad
well all i can say is overture is your best bet right now as looksmarts ppc seems to drop your existing listing way down the search results within their directory when you sign up for the ppc, is this the case with your site?
Now overture (goto) Im not at all happy with the search engine partner results, the problem with overture is -
when you search for your keyphase purchased (overture) your site maybe listed at the top of the listings in their partner sites but you have to hover over the title to see the rest of the description, This is very poor ,
people out there will click on a site that has a visible description and zero in on what they are looking for, so in my opinion the top 3 results from overture are naff?
Let me know your experiance please o leewad

o and yo bro I like your avatar!!
