Google or Overture

[wahini]

Hi,
I was wondering which pay per click search engine is better for generating quality traffic Google Ad words or Overture. Google seems to give you more control over your daily traffic while Overture lists you in the main search and allows you to write better ads. But with their monthly budget I blew thru a lot of money overnight with no sales.
Thanks, Wahini

We spend an average of 25,000$ per month of advertising with Overture and Google.com.

I think they are both pretty similar, however, i beleive that google allows you more flexibility as you said.

The key is to advertise many many many keywords, with the lowest pay per click possible. That way, you will be able to lower your average pay per click.

Overture, sometimes, only sends you traffic for the keywords that are above 30 cents per click.

Google, on the other hand will send you the traffic as you ask it for.

I didn't think (the big) O allows adult ads anymore.

i believe Google is still the best!
And from what i know OVERTURE doesn't accept anything from adult anymore..as mentioned above.
