		<description>[...] Wikia confirms that they currently have nothing more than a &#8220;default&#8221; deal with Google for text ads on their site. The big ad networks (Google, Yahoo, Microsoft) are all trying lock up long term deals with big partners, usually by offering some sort of revenue guarantee (see Google&#8217;s nearly $1 billion deal with MySpace and Microsoft&#8217;s deal with Facebook). I wouldn&#8217;t be surprised to see each of them begin to pursue Wikia as well, simply as a hedge in the event the site someday grows to even a fraction of Wikipedia&#8217;s size.

		<description>[...] The article doesn&#8217;t mention Microsoft&#8217;s Adcenter product, which is a full generation beyond both Panama and Google&#8217;s existing product because it factors in demographic information about the person viewing the advertisement. While Microsoft hasn&#8217;t ramped up on advertisers yet, it&#8217;s clear that this is a three way race. An example of how much Microsoft means business is the fact that they probably bought their way into handling ads for Facebook. Without a revenue guarantee, Facebook would have gone with Google or Yahoo. [...]</description>

		<description>[...] This could have been a major coup for Yahoo! or Microsoft, but as it stands it&#8217;s unsurprising that Google landed the deal. Google is willing to go to great lengths to land big advertising deals lately, such as to reportedly giving 90% or more of total revenue to select partners like AOL and Ask and guaranteeing nearly $1 billion to Myspace. Google&#8217;s advertising formula is also believed to be the most lucrative, as it takes customer clicks into account. Yahoo! is believed to be working on similar functionality but lost the chance to extend it&#8217;s US advertising agreement with eBay. The Google agreement makes deals like Microsoft&#8217;s with Facebook last week look puny, though that deal is said to have required very little negotiation. [...]</description>

		<description>[...] August 25th, 2006   It was announced earlier this week that Microsoft has won an advertising deal with Facebook, and terms weren&#8217;t disclosed.  Shoemoney seems to have a source saying the deal came in around $850 million, others hear it&#8217;s more like $200 million, but without knowing exact terms beyond it involving display advertising and sponsored listings it&#8217;s hard to really analyze the details too much.  Techcrunch thinks the most interesting part is that the deal wasn&#8217;t with Google.  I disagree, I think the most interesting part is that Microsoft is working on becoming an ad exchange.  According to the New York Times:  Steve Berkowitz, senior vice president of the online services group for Microsoft, said ads would be made for Facebook, but they could also be aimed at any of MSN’s various Internet properties, which have a total of 400 million users worldwide. At the same time, ads running on MSN properties may also appear on Facebook, depending on what audience the advertiser wants to reach.

		<description>[...] Choosing Microsoft over Google is like the antithesis of technology right now, knowing how Google is targeting to be the next Microsoft. Why would they choose Microsoft over Google? In a recent development, Facebook (a very famous social networking site after MySpace) has signed an advertising deal with Microsoft to put Microsoft adCentre link on the top of their website. Imagine the traffic they will generate for the alr rich Microsoft.This is led by the buyout of MySpace by Google in a $1 billion, 3 year deal for Google to power search across most of Fox sites. The deal will include the integration of a Google search box on all Myspace pages, and Fox also disclosed that they intend to &#8220;work with Google&#8221; in creating a Myspace toolbar that allows users to extend their MySpace experience beyond the site itself. Google will be obligated to make guaranteed minimum revenue share payments to Fox Interactive Media of at least $900 million based on Fox achieving certain traffic and other commitments. This deal will significantly increase total revenue on Myspace, which is estimated to currently be generating about $350 million annually.It is interesting to note how this will go down with Yahoo! which has acquired smaller social networking companies (the irony is Yahoo started this trend first) like Flickr and del.icio.us but not able to generate the amount of traffic that MySpace and Facebook can. Who will buy Friendster and LinkedIn next? Yahoo is not giving up without a fight. They are working on a project called Panama where ads placement are now based on price and relevancy of ad. Yahoo is expected to test this in the UK in July.Comparisons between the different advertising methods of the search engines:Highest Revenue Earner: GoogleHighest Registered User: Google [...]</description>
