I’ve found an ad network called Clickbooth CPA Network, and have signed up as a publisher. I figured I’d write up a review of the whole process as it happens, so that you can see my experience and determine if it’s a network you’d like to get into for your site or blog.

From the Clickbooth website:

Formed in September 2002, Clickbooth has developed an affordable, profitable, scalable and technologically-advanced organization over the years. Our team includes experts in the fields of advertising, publishing, technology and design.

The first step was to go to the Clickbooth site and sign up as a publisher. It’s a very simple setup, beginning with your name, address, etc. and then moving on to a verification tool that I thought was pretty neat. You enter your phone number, and the system calls you and gives you a verification PIN code which you must then enter on the site. The site follows along with the phone call so it’s very simple to do.

Next step was to enter your website/s. Here’s where I ran into something a little odd, but basically you can enter as many sites as you want (I started with three), but you can only choose one category. The problem here is that all three of the sites I entered have different topics. I don’t like the fact that you can’t select the category for each site. But I entered all three sites and chose the category for the first one, and then in the comments section made a not about that, stating what the topics were for the other two sites. Not sure if it’ll mean much, but I made the effort.

Now comes the waiting period. I get a confirmation message that one of their reviewers will get back to me within 72 hours. Not sure if it’ll be a phone call or an email, but we’ll see what happens, and I’ll finish this post then.

Update 5/1/08: It is now 5 days after I did the signup, and nothing heard back from them yet. I have only to say that this is a huge disappointment for me. I was really looking forward to being able to do this review for you all before posting, but I feel that this is an important piece of information for anyone who might be interested… It’s going to take longer than the 72 hours they tell you. Clearly a lot longer.

Should I hear back from them, I’ll be happy to update this post further at that time.
