Although it doesn't have the flexibility required for someone with multiple sites, I'm sure over time Google will improve it and add that flexibility, and other stuff based on the feedback we offer. But as a starting point, it is a much, much better starting point than the referrals program.
Am I right in thinking that we can't add the actual adverts yet? I can't find anything in my Adsense account.
Stop being greedy.
If I want my own advertisers I'll put my own link and cut out the middle man and not worry about smrt pricing and charge whatever the market dictates.
Now when people do a web search for something very closely related to your content, they'll see the ad on google.com that YOU sourced before they click on yoursite and by-pass you all together.
You're going to go to work for google and they're not even going to pay you, but hijack the advertisers you source and gorge themselves on the revenue.
Way to not be evil.
...unless you can't get your own advertisers, in which case, I doubt anyone would go through google to target your site anyway.
Just because advertisers buy ads at Google doesn't mean they will stop advertising on your site directly.
In fact, in my case, I have advertisers that buy with me directly and still want MORE ad exposure. This will give them an easy way to do that by allowing them to advertise in my existing google ad block placements.
I would like the $20 bounty if I'm sending them a new adwords advertiser though, especially if that new advertiser decides not to advertise on my site, but still spends money on Adwords.
