AdSense or Yahoo YPN on Joomla and Mambo

November 26, 2005 · Filed Under Adsense and YPN, Joomla and Mambo · Comment 

Joomla and Mambo are the coolest open source content management systems around now. Both of these systems comes with default component and module for banner management, however features provided by this component are very basic. The banner module shows the banners at the specific location configured from admin console. You can setup multiple banners and these banners (you can use it for AdSense or ypn ) are shown in rotation.

However with default banner module major deficiency is having more than one banner on the site. Its said that there is way to copy the banner module and be able to have more than one banner being displayed on site. Still its near impossible to specify particular AdSense or ypn ad at specific banner.

Yahoo YPN revenue sharing

Yahoo YPN is just like google adsense and right now is in beta version as yahoo is testing out its services.

What is most striking factor in beta is payouts, Yahoo YPN pays upto 200% more than adsense. With smart pricing in effect google adsense earnings for most publishers must have sinked to bottom earning them next to nothing.

However, there is one solutions. YPN revenue sharing.

Mambo and Joomla are best in SEO

November 13, 2005 · Filed Under Joomla and Mambo, Web Master Talk · Comment 

I have personally tried various open source software available for CMS and/or web publishing including wordpress, mambo, joomla, phpbb (and other forums) and I have to conclude to myself that best SEO services are offered by Mambo and Joomla

However, one must note that Mambo and Joomla by default doesn’t have great SEO features, and it is not even enabled by default. The basic SEO feature in Mambo and Joomla just organizes the URL friendlier for search engine to gulp, but doesn’t give any keyword benefit from content. When default SEO is turned on in Mambo or Joomla, the URL of content page looks more like www.seodon.com/section/cat/id.
