Part of the Yuwie Series - Previous in series Next in series
I haven’t written about Yuwie lately, but this week’s announcement is an excellent reason to do so. They just announced their highest RSR (Revenue Sharing Rate) to date - $0.54!

Well, perhaps it was more carma then Karma after all. My boss was able to come through for me with the cash I needed to get Rover fixed today. Woo Hoo!!

Many bloggers and webmasters have removed the Adsense ads from their sites and replaced them with alternative ad suppliers. Which means if you’re paying for PPC through Adsense then you’re not getting the same reach you once were. And if you’re fed up with Google then you’re probably looking for a new PPC advertising broker anyway.
