BlogAds: Best Click-through Last Hour
BlogAds, a service that allows advertisers to build their own classified-like ads on participating small web sites (mostly weblogs), has introduced a new feature that shows which ads are performing best on a click-through basis, updated hourly. CEO Henry Copeland said he was not aware of any other ad network exposing their best-performing ads like this (and neither am I) and it served the purpose of educating advertisers using the system as to what kinds of ads are likely to stimulate clicks (as well as to generate himself some PR, he shrewdly notes, as an ex-journalist).
