Adsense Alternatives 7 - Yahoo Publisher Network (YPN)
Yahoo is always the keen competitor with Google in search engine industry. Several years ago, Google has started to explore the new business area in internet advertising. Adwords and Adsense are the two complimentary programs that help Google generates billions of dollars a year. In this market, Google is having the biggest market share in internet advertising. In light of this, Yahoo need to keep up the pace with Google and start a very similar contextually-targeted ad program called Yahoo! Publisher Network (YPN).
Yahoo! Publisher Network is still in the beta stage and only accept the publishers from US, but not elsewhere. Also, the requirement of the website is also harsh. Below are the eligibility requirements:

Yahoo! Publisher Network ads are sold on a cost-per-click basis, so advertisers are charged only when Internet users click on their ads. While we cannot estimate the amount of money you could potentially make, the highly targeted nature of these ads can help you to effectively monetize your website.
Your Yahoo! Publisher Network ads will usually begin appearing within a few minutes of pasting the ad code into your web pages. If no ads are available, "run-of-network" ads are displayed until more relevant ads are matched to the pages, typically within 24 hours.
You are allowed to display ads in multiple areas of your web page(s). In order to do so, paste the code multiple times as appropriate for your page. Keep in mind that the same set of ads may appear in each of the areas that you have chosen to display ads.

Hi rmn,
Thank you very much for your comment. I really appreciate that.
After reviewing your site, there are several points that I want you to note.
1. You cannot have both Google adsense ads and Bidvertiser ads on the same page. This violates Google TOS. This applies to the Obeus ads too.
2. For the Adsense ads alone, it is quite standout from the background, and this will affect your CTR negatively.
3. You have far too many banner ads or affiliate ads at the bottom. This is not helpful in getting more income, but affect visitor's visiting experience. Hence, earning from Adsense will also drop.
4. You have only use 1 Adsense for Content unit, and in fact, you should use more.
Overall, your site has a nice outlook. But if you really want to make money from your site, you need to put more effort into it (There are already too many online-money-teaching sites out there). My advice is concentrate on Adsense ALONE first! Ignore other ads or affiliates networks. They will not be as good as Adsense. Remove all those non-Adsense ads now, and put more Adsense ads, search boxes, and link unit etc.
I recently bought a SEO software with Business edition. If you would like to have a deep SEO analysis for your site, leave your email address to me here.
I think I have given quite a lot of advices, and please put a backlink to my site.
