Google Adsense is one of the most famous context based CPC (Cost Per Click) advertising program and undoubtedly the money machine for most of the bloggers. Some Professional bloggers are earning six figure marks with adsense with the increasing amount of traffic flowing into their blogs. But sometimes people gets banned by Google for violation of Adsense policies like click-frauds.There is no appeal against the ban and often forced to look for alternatives. The bad thing about most of the good Google alternatives dont suit for small time publishers as they look for more traffic, page rank or more posts or age of the blog or website.

One can find lot of articles recomending lot of advertising options but it will not suite for the small time blog or it may not be context based advertising system. Say for eg) Amazon affiliate marketing or ebay marketing which is just another way of earning money which can even be used along with adsense. They cannot be a alternative to Adsense.

Now getting down to the point, I will list down few best context based advertising or text advertising which will suit for small scale publishers.

• Adbrite
• Clicksor
• Bidvertiser
• Chitika
• Revenue Pilot

Yahoo Publisher Network can be considered as another option apart from the above five. Yahoo is pretty choosy in selecting the publishers but Yahoo can generate revenue as good as google based on Context based advertising.

I have listed down only the best in the business and I am not interested in penning down the advertising campaigns which is not satisfactory to me.Hope it helps...
