Does anyone sell advertising space on their website or in their newsletters?

[MumMktng]

Hi everyone,

I'm interested to know if any of you have sold or thought about selling adverts on your website or email newsletters and if so what was your experience?

Thanks

DH doesn't
A company I work for does,
but vetting advertisers is HUGELY time consuming

Do you mean vetting them in terms of whether they're going to pay or the type of company they are?

More that we've had a couple who messed people about and WE got the blame and the reputational damage.
And yes, non payers are a PITA

I think it depends on the type of business you run. It could look unprofessional and make your website confusing.

I've just established a niche site (for fun and "experimental profit) and have stuck adsense on it.

There's no way in hell though I'd use it on my professional site!
