    1. When u create a new adgroup or keyword it takes up to 5 working days to make it active, where as google does it almost immediately

    Just imagine what happens if i've to change the url of a adtext, i'll have to wait for 5 days to start seeing results

    2.If u ask them a question the reply will come only after a week is passed, where as google replies almost withing 24hrs.
    And the reply what u get from yahoo will be of no use

    Infact now a days my Adcenter campaigns have started working much better than YSM.

    The day is not far when people will stop using YSM

    Adcentre is a wonder, but faces the same problem. Both take roughly 24 hours for changes to be approved if they are.

    Still combined, they deliver nicer than AdWords. Google are playing with their monopoly and abusing it.

    I've found that Yahoo give me a higher percentage of conversions. That is why I use them.
