YSM Adds Blocked Domains for Advertisers

October 1st, 2007 Derek

Hey guys, as most of you know that are members of the Click Consultants forums, I very very rarely use YSM Content Network for Affiliate Marketing. The reason is up until now they have not offered a way to Block Domains that are not converting well for you. That is as I said until now. According to an email I received from Yahoo Search Marketing they now offer a tool to block domains from their partner distribution network where you don’t want your ads to appear. I think this is a great addition and personally I think they should have had this feature out from day one of their partner distribution network launching. Its common sense that advertisers can waste alot of money when they are unable to control where their ads are being placed. I’m glad they finally implemented this as I’m sure are alot of other affiliate marketers.

Are you going to start testing your affiliate campaigns using YSM’s content network now? Leave a comment and let me know what you think.

EDIT: I also just realized that Yahoo now has a Paypal Option if you goto your Administration Tab and Goto Funding Sources and then goto Add New Card, however, it doesn’t seem to be working yet. Anyone know when they added this and when it will become functional?

Yeah actually what they do is charge 1.00 to your paypal account and you have to wait until that clears in order to use it fully in YSM. I finally logged into my Paypal account and saw a charge from Yahoo for 1 dollar and it said Pending. As soon as it went though, I was able to use Paypal to add funds to my YSM Account, I guess I was so excited I forgot to edit my blog post and put in that it finally worked for me and that you just had to wait for verification.
