Hello, I am trying to advertise a tobacco site but google and overture do not allow it. I know they do in some countries. Does anyone know of good high volume pay-per-click search engines I can work with? Jeff

Not allowed to advertise tobacco products in Asia? Wow. What is the world coming to?
For Japanese you might want to try BTLookSmart. Listings appear in MSN.co.jp and a few ISP portals.

Your best bet would probably be to optimize.
And listing in DMOZ, hence Google Directory, since there are at least a few categories for tobacco.

Advertising Tobacco Products is a No-No in Australia, I am assuming this would be applicable to online advertising as well. Not sure about other parts of Asia-Pacific though.

I do not think Singapore allows it, I do not know about Thailand.
I imagine Thailand, Malaysia, Vietnam, Cambodia, Myanmar etc would probably still all allow it.

If Google and other PPC programs will NOT allow it, then surely SEO is the route to go.
I wish their were more products which this was the case for :)
