I noticed that I get a high number of hits from Japan. Though my site has no Japan specific content and it is in English. Is there any ad network catering to Japanese market? Also how should I monetize my ad space for Japanese audience. As I can geo target banners using my adserver.
Do Adsense and other adnetworks Tribal Fusion perform well in Japan?
Thanks in Advance

I'm going to point out the blatantly obvious here... ;) If you don't have Japanese content you're not going to convert in any significant numbers. You can certainly geo-target Japanese language ads using AdSense and your other networks, but you're not going to see much of a return. I watch fairly un-savvy Japanese Internet browsers all the time, and rarely will they go for the ads on non-Japanese pages...more than likely they'll be reaching for the back button on their browser. But, if you have some Japanese content to keep them on the page for a bit, then we're talking about a whole different ballgame.
