Project Wonderful Advertising is Wonderful!

I’m going to introduce you to a new advertising network I found recently that I’ve fallen in love with! The network I’m introducing to you is called “Project Wonderful“.

Introduction to Project Wonderful

Project Wonderful is a new type of network that let’s you choose any type of ad format imaginable and sell the space to whomever has the highest bid that you allow at daily intervals. That’s basically the gist of it. Previously most blogs that wanted to do advertising but didn’t get many uniques would have a hard time selling site-wides unless it was blatantly for PR reasons. Now with Project Wonderful you can sell your space for what it’s worth. If you you sell say a 125X125 banner spot for ~$.20 a day that’s ~6$ a month; not a lot but definitely the difference between breaking even on your blog or paying the hosting yourself. It’s also in my opinion a brilliant way to deliver direct advertising in a search engine friendly widget. By search engine friendly I mean you won’t be passing or receiving any PR from those you’re advertising with.

That’s a small example but ultimately it’s you the owner of the site that controls how much it makes. You can opt for 1 banner of any size and have people bid it up or you can put a few boxes out and harvest the daily money from each. Currently at Bloggeries Forum I’m using one box; I put it up yesterday and it’s already up to $.30 a day with 10 interested bidders. I’m very interested to see where this will go over the next few weeks and months because most people have NO CLUE about this
service yet; did you?

Purchasing Ads

When purchasing ad space you can upload funds via Paypal which is incredibly convenient for myself and I’m sure most purely digital entrepreneurs a well. No need to load it on a personal credit card; it comes right out of paypal! Also when purchasing advertising you can bid in increments of $.10 at a time even though I’m currently a high bid on about 10-20 places; many of them only $.01-$.03 a day!! I mean this whole advertising campaign that I’m running costs me about ~$.33 a day! That’s ~1/5th the price of a Large coffee at a reasonably priced chain like Tim Horton’s, Krispy Kreme etc… When purchasing ad space it also let’s you know how many page views the blog/site gets on average and how many today which is EXTREMELY helpful and choosing whom to advertise with. I’m looking currently at sites with over ~300 page views a day and less than $0.05.

This project is wonderful but I think the time to get really cheap ads is NOW; once and trust me I believe this WILL become mainstream ads will go to what they belong at as supply and demand even out with larger numbers of advertisers and publishers. I spent about 2 hours last night buying ads and will do the same. If I can spend $20-30 a month and appear on dozens of blogs… Not too shabby!

Selling Ads

Selling ad space is as simple as putting the widget on your blog and checking your email for bids. You’ll get people bidding $0.00 right away so if you don’t want to deal with that just put a reserve. I caution you though; if you’re putting a reserve make it super low; I see a lot of blogs that get next to no traffic saying unless I make $0.40 a day it’s not worth it. Sorry
but with the current supply you’ll most likely get NO bids and say Project wonderful isn’t so wonderful. I recommend just letting people get on there and the market will even itself out. My widget has been online for less than 1 day and as already mentioned has seen some bidding.

You can opt to automatically accept new advertisers; have to approve each bid or allow them to bid as much as they want once approved. I opt for the last suggestion as once an advertiser is approved I want them to bid as much and as often as possible; why not!? The only reason I don’t have automatic is because I want to make sure the content is always child safe.

At the present time I have no idea how many advertisers are using the service but there are thousands and some blogs even have bids as high as $10 a day… Imagine having 4 boxes and making ~$40 a day from your blog without having to worry about PR issues etc? Basically this is opening the door to most online sites to make good money; all you need to do as a publisher is write quality content that gets people visiting; if you can do that I’m sure you’ll receive lot’s of bids and agree that project wonderful truly is wonderful. I just wish this came out months ago!

The Staff

The staff has to approve your account manually so I recommend you signup asap so your account will be ready when you finally decide to install the widget or widgets on your blog. Also I heard they don’t work weekends or holidays so don’t signup on Friday at 5PM like I did!

Conclusions

I urge you to live a little and throw $5 into your Project Wonderful account via paypal; it’s fun and productive. I just checked my stats and I signed up for advertisers late last night at about midnight; while I was sleeping I got 9 unique clicks from 450 page views at a total advertising cost of ~0.10-0.15$! Normally in the mornings my forum has a lower count from the at midnight inactive users being removed from the list; not this time so I’m assuming a few converted. Not bad for a dime during sleepy time.

  1. I found your site on technorati and read a few of your other posts. Keep up the good work. I just added your RSS feed to my Google News Reader. Looking forward to reading more from you.

    Thanks for the kind words Chris. We try to deliver content that will help anyone interested in running a home biz. Thanks for letting us know we’re on the right path!

  3. I can’t help noticing a difference between the amount you are paying for ads and the amount you are projecting you will be paid for them. So far the income on the tower ad above the fold in my blog is closer to the former.

  4. Rob says:

    I can see what you’re saying but if you get a lot of traffic especially one that converts for a specific advertiser you will get good money in bids. If you aren’t getting bids try and describe your keywords better or get more traffic.

    Regarding buying cheaper ads that is available to everyone regardless of their current income from the program. There will always be a supply of blogs that you can bid on for pennies a day that get little but who knows maybe well converting traffic.

  5. Cgrus Curtis says:

    This blog was a great idea. There are so many opportunities and resources out there, it is sometimes hard to get a grasp on it. What a great resource this blog is. I will also be grabbing the rss to put on my resources site for the team members in my opportunities. God Bless and keep up the good work. Keep working hard so others don’t have to.

    Has anyone tried Etology yet? I’ve been using this service for a few months now and so far I’m quite happy with the results. Project Wonderful is nice, but I wasn’t happy with my overall earnings. Therefore, I started searching for something better and eventually found Etology. One of the nice things about Etology is that you can set your own prices, which in the long run equals higher earnings. You can check out this review that I wrote for more info.

  7. Subscribers may be the alternative I wanna discuss. People keep in mind tips on how to get youtube views as well as the first thing that pops in their scalp is subscribers. They believe that when they may have far more subscribers then theyll get additional views. This is certainly false. I’m going to clarify why. Subscribers are solely good any time you first submit flick. This is because they’re going to obtain the video and put up feedback upon it. Then, this may bring you while in the most discussed listing and more people can come and watch and leave comments. It truly is enable you to get more views yet it is only because you have been on an inventory not owing to your video. Subscribers are great to have and not as vital as individuals think.

  8. Hello just wanted to give you a quick heads up. The words in your content seem to be running off the screen in Opera. I’m not sure if this is a formatting issue or something to do with web browser compatibility but I figured I’d post to let you know. The design and style look great though! Hope you get the issue solved soon. Cheers

    I’ve been browsing on-line greater than 3 hours these days, yet I by no means discovered any attention-grabbing article like yours. It is pretty value enough for me. Personally, if all site owners and bloggers made excellent content material as you did, the web will likely be a lot more useful than ever before. “I finally realized that being grateful to my body was key to giving more love to myself.” by Oprah Winfrey.

  12. I think other website proprietors should take this website as an model, very clean and fantastic user friendly style and design, as well as the content. You are an expert in this topic!

  15. Hi there, I am new to blogging and websites in general and was curious about how you got the “www” included in your domain name? I see your domain name, “http://homebizblogger.com/2008/01/30/project-wonderful-advertising-is-wonderful” has the www and my web address looks like, “http://mydomain.com”. Do you know the simplest way I can alter this? I’m using WordPress. Many thanks

  16. Gemstones says:

    You actually make it seem so easy with your presentation but I find this matter to be really something that I think I would never understand. It seems too complicated and very broad for me. I am looking forward for your next post, I will try to get the hang of it!

  24. “I am glad to talk with you and you give me great help”

  25. Hello would you mind stating which blog platform you’re working with? I’m looking to start my own blog in the near future but I’m having a hard time choosing between BlogEngine/Wordpress/B2evolution and Drupal. The reason I ask is because your design seems different then most blogs and I’m looking for something completely unique. P.S My apologies for being off-topic but I had to ask!

  26. Would you be all for exchanging hyperlinks?

  32. Today, I went to the beach with my kids. I found a sea shell and gave it to my 4 year old daughter and said “You can hear the ocean if you put this to your ear.” She placed the shell to her ear and screamed. There was a hermit crab inside and it pinched her ear. She never wants to go back! LoL I know this is entirely off topic but I had to tell someone!

Do you know any techniques to help prevent content from being stolen? I’d certainly appreciate it.

  62. pavilions says:

  72. blanco sink says:

    I intended to create you this very small observation so as to give thanks as before considering the fantastic methods you have provided on this site. It was simply extremely generous with you to supply unreservedly precisely what a number of us would’ve made available for an ebook in order to make some money on their own, especially considering that you could have done it in case you wanted. The concepts also served to become good way to be certain that someone else have a similar eagerness much like my personal own to learn a good deal more with regards to this problem. I believe there are several more enjoyable sessions in the future for folks who examine your blog post.

  73. Thanks for your write-up. I also believe that laptop computers have gotten more and more popular lately, and now will often be the only kind of computer used in a household. The reason being at the same time that they are becoming more and more cost-effective, their working power keeps growing to the point where there’re as robust as desktop through just a few years back.

  74. There will be more and more traffic to this blog .Its very interesting spread the word.

  75. This is an epic post, maybe I should add add this blog to my blogroll? :)

  76. Hi there! Do you know if they make any plugins to protect against hackers? I’m kinda paranoid about losing everything I’ve worked hard on. Any suggestions?

  77. Witty! I’m bookmarking you site for future use.

  78. I was wondering if you ever considered changing the structure of your website? Its very well written; I love what youve got to say. But maybe you could a little more in the way of content so people could connect with it better. Youve got an awful lot of text for only having 1 or two images. Maybe you could space it out better?

  79. Right now it sounds like WordPress is the top blogging platform out there right now. (from what I’ve read) Is that what you’re using on your blog?

  80. I was very pleased to find this website. I wanted to thank you for your time for this excellent post!!

  81. I’m really enjoying the theme/design of your blog. Do you ever run into any internet browser compatibility problems? A few of my blog visitors have complained about my blog not working correctly in Explorer but looks great in Chrome. Do you have any suggestions to help fix this issue?

  82. bed linens says:

    I’m not sure where you’re getting your information, but great topic. I needs to spend some time learning more or understanding more. Thanks for wonderful information I was looking for this info for my mission.

  83. I’m extremely impressed with your writing skills as well as with the layout on your blog. Is this a paid theme or did you customize it yourself? Either way keep up the excellent quality writing, it’s rare to see a nice blog like this one these days..

  84. I’ve been wondering about the identical thing personally recently. Pleased to see another person on the same wavelength! Nice article.

  85. We loved your website so much we added it to http://www.usbhubreview.net/sites-we-like-2. Just fill in the offer and your backlink is permanent.

  86. Can I simply say what a relief to find someone who truly knows what they’re talking about on the internet.
