Are you talking about Pay Per Click?

Have done it, do do it, and will continue to, but more sparingly due to over $4.00 clicks.

I've been much happier (in every segment I've worked in) with Yahoo!'s PPC program than Google's. GG's is more expensive, has lower conversion rates and more click fraud. Go to Google only after exhausting your Yahoo! traffic possibilities.
