Comparing the ad relevancy of Google AdSense & Yahoo Publisher Network ads

Date June 13, 2005

With some of the Yahoo employees running Yahoo Publisher Network (YPN) ads on their blogs, I thought it would be interesting to compare relevancy between YPN and AdSense and see how the two compare.

I compared the ads by seeing the ads displayed on the blog entries - selecting entries where ad inventory would not be an issue - and then using the Google AdSense Preview tool to compare YPN against the ads that AdSense would serve on the same page, then took screenshots which are below.
