The
Verdict : Highly Recommended
Sprinks.com is a great alternative to Overture
and Google
Adwords. It has partnerships with some large distributors
such as Cnet.com, Mamma.com, MetaCrawler.com and Forbes.com.
Sprinks.com allows you to show ads on About.com's content
sites for $0.20 per click (worth it for related sites).
Sprinks' keyword bids are generally more affordable
than Overture's
and less competitive than Google
Adwords which makes them a great alternative.
