Gil, I applied when you first mentioned this. I received an invitation a short time afterwards. I have never ran an ad campaign. It is very confusing to me. Can anyone offer suggestons?

I have used both Google Adwords, Yahoo Overture and MSN adcenter. I have to say that Yahoo Overture is my favority. Google seems to be tyring to get as much money as it possilby can per click and is very misleading about how much you need to bid. There wasn't ever anything wrong with using MSN, but Yahoo just seemed to get me better results. One of my concerns with MSN AdCenter is that the people at Yahoo have repeatedly told me that they run the ads for MSN's articles. It makes me wonder if placing ads in Yahoo AND MSN is just an overlap of money.

I totally agree with you. We run over Yahoo! Search marketing (overture), Adwords Froogle (free) and Yahoo! Product Submit. The best leads are Product Submit with little $$, Google is a waste of money, and Y! search marketing is much better that Google.
So in our case Froogle (Google Base) and Y! Product submit is a thumb up.
We are now trying Shopzilla, but the approval takes for ever (4 days already and still waiting although they charge you right away). I complained they say once the ads start running the next upload is approved within 6-12 hours.
We also signed up for shop.com still waiting for a call back.
Well anyway if you o not advertise you do not sell, like it or not you need to invest and be patient. As you can see either ebay, amazon.com, shop.com, target.com etc they all do massive online adversisemt.
