Anyone using Kontera? I just found out about them the other day and got all setup with them today. Gonna give them a week or so of testing to see how it goes. I personally find their type of contextual advertising a little annoying but I want to see how it goes.

Also, I'm obviously using Kontera because I don't have enough traffic to get into Intellitxt. But for those who do have enough traffic for Intellitxt, how do you feel about it?
 


IME, Kontera's targeting was BAD. It was almost a joke to see the ads - it became a game to find the most irrelevant (this was on a tech site - not hard to narrow down to just tech ads).

IntelliTXT was FAR better for us, and they ultimately won our business. We gave members the option to permanently turn off the IntelliTXT in their profile, but a very tiny amount of people actually do. We found no decrease in satisfaction or traffic after we installed it many months ago. It's one of our most consistent revenue streams, though it's not one of the largest.

Hope that helps!

Yeah I've noticed Kontera targets some good keywords on my site, but the ads that show up once you hover over the double underlined links are pretty bad.

I'd use Intellitxt if I met the traffic requirements.
 
I used Kontera for a few weeks on my blog, and I really, really hated it. The big problem was I didn't like reading my own blog with the context ads in place, so why would anyone else?

Plus, as others have said, it slowed down the performance of my site and was really poorly targeted.

It didn't pay well at all either.
