I’m still unhappy with the performance of my main Myspace resource site, Layout Pimps. With an average around 1,600 uniques/day, you’d think I could make a little more than $5.00/day from it.

So I’m making the move for a few days to Yahoo Publisher Network. I’m only moving this one site just as a test to see how well it performs. I’ve done this in the past, and didn’t see good results. Yahoo actually performed worse. My friend runs a myspace site on YPN and averages over $10 per 1,000 uniques. If those same proportions held true for my site, I would be earning around $16.00/day, which is a HUGE increase over where I’m at now.

I’m anxious to see how well Yahoo will perform, but I am not holding my breathe. I’ve never had good luck with it like so many people have. If I do see an increase, I may end up switching all my sites over to Yahoo. Their ad targeting sucks, but from what everyone says is that they pay out way better than Google.

Plus I have $45 sitting in my Yahoo account right now, so worse come to worse, I’ll let Layout Pimps sit in YPN until I reach $100 that way I get a payout, then move it back to Google so I can get a payout from them as well.

I will keep everyone posted on the performance of YPN on my site. The goal is to make more than $5.12/day. Since I made the switch just 5 minutes ago, I will not start keeping track until tomorrow so I have a full day to work with.
