Yesterday I installed the ProjectWonderful code on my blog. I created two ad boxes; you can find them in the right bar under the blog categories.
This morning the emails with bid notifications started to overflow my email inbox. I checked the first email, logged into my ProjectWonderful account and was “pleasantly” shocked to see that all the bidders were bidding ZERO amounts. Well, I just ignored those bidders. The emails continue to poor in. So, later today, after I received around 25 email notifications I decided to log in and approve them all :)
The moment I approved the bids, 70% of all bidders got deactivated because of “insufficient funds”. The remaining bidders did not raise their bids, so the “lucky” two got the spots for whooping 1 cent and 2 cents a day.
I will keep the ads for a week or so and if the bids will still be around what they are now, I will be removing the ProjectWonderful ads from my blog. I think I will be better off creating my own ads rotation and show CPA and affiliate ads there.

I also wonder if project wonderful is worth it as well. I am running the same sort of test myself. One blog PW the other Google. Let the best blog win ;)

I was thinking of installing the PW widget but remember someone telling me that it doesn’t really work on new browser?
@superpatches: I am using latest Firefox and IE and have not experienced any problems with PW ads… Your friend must be referring to something else.
