Those of you who keep your ear to the webcomic battleground may be aware that this past week, ADSDAQ, an ad provider I’ve mentioned quite a lot on here, is going through and declining all sites that have comics. It even states in the declination letter that the “undesired” content is in fact, comics, anime and manga.  Apparently, adding the context around the entire site does not make up for simply publishing a visual product. Yet again, comics get the shaft. However, this does not mean that adding the extra text content is no longer important. It is still important to increase SEO, regardless of what ads you show on your site.

So, since ADSDAQ is no longer a viable source of income, I will be changing my Advertising 303 article to reflect this change. Instead of ADSDAQ, I’m going to talk about Adbrite, Adsense, CPMstar, [Burst], and others. I applied to a bunch of networks last week in anticpation of having my site dropped by ADSDAQ, and I’m still waiting on a couple. In the mean time, Advertising 404 is going to go up tomorrow about how to set up ad chains, set up defaults, and which networks to put where in the chain, and more.
