I have started this blog to keep track of all the interesting stuff I read about. In some cases, friends of mine have shared their cool stuff with me. I try to keep the headlines and descriptions short, so you must follow the links to read and decide for yourself if a topic is worth your time. Want to contribute? Just comment on any of the stories and I will be notified instantly.
There is a new way of paying for ads and is gaining popularity. It's called pay-per-action, pay-per-performance, or pay-per-sell. The concept is trivial. An advertiser pays for an ad whenever a user buys the item advertised, not when a user clicks on the ad.
For a consumer, this means more relevant search results and less-expensive items shown first, because the ads can make money for the advertising agency only when the consumer buys the items.
Some ad agency websites using this concept to sell ad space:
Jellyfish.com, TheFind.com and MyTriggers.com
