San Francisco, CA (PRWEB) April 2005 -- Feedster, Inc., an Internet
search engine that provides timely and meaningful information from blogs and RSS
feeds, and AdBrite, “The Internet’s Ad Marketplace”, today announced that they
are partnering to offer blog publishers the most complete suite of tools for
buying and selling ads.
“AdBrite makes it easy for bloggers to earn
money by connecting them directly with interested advertisers. Using AdBrite,
the only thing bloggers need to do is write their blog, approve ads, and cash
checks,” said Philip Kaplan, CEO of AdBrite. “We are pleased to offer the
Feedster community the opportunity to join the more than 4,000 sites already
taking advantage of AdBrite’s ever-growing Internet ad marketplace.”
“We’ve partnered with AdBrite because we have similar objectives in our
approach to advertising. This program enables both high volume blogs and
smaller, highly targeted properties to generate revenue,” said Chris Redlitz,
VP, Feedster. “Smaller sites also profit from Feedster's direct sales efforts to
high profile advertisers. Publishers in our Network will gain access to
advertisers they couldn’t sell to on an individual basis.”
The program is
easy to use and offers the highest payout in the business. After a simple set up
process, publishers can set rates, specify placement and approve or reject
site-specific ads.. Advertisers can search to find individual blogs and
customize ad copy for each property or purchase run-of-network ads. Statistical
analysis provides easy ROI tracking, historical pricing, and response
projections. More information is available at http://adbrite.feedster.com

Media Network to monetize their traffic. Publishers can soon earn revenue from
ads in RSS feeds and Podcasts. Prominent blogs such as Buzzhit, Metroblogs,

in the network.
