Year 2007 has been a fascinating year for Malaysian blogosphere as we see the born of at least 5 ads network, respectively NuffNang, Advertlets, GrabMyAds, Gokita and Netizen. But how about our neighbors, what’s in the air in the Singapore and Indonesia blogosphere? You might just wanna stick with your few local ones (or perhaps you can’t even register for it) but it’s good to know what’s around us.
Blog2u, Singapore
A Singapore ad network startup by Paddy Tan, the founder of Bak2u. Blog2u made public on the 2nd of April, 2008. Here’s how Blog2u works. You install the script, and get paid when advertisers decides to place ads on your site. The more interesting part you should probably know is, Blog2u pays before (or the first day) ads are served, instead of paying when campaign is over. Read more on Blog2u.
KlikSaya, Indonesia
KlikSaya, or in English "Click Me" is ad network startup from Indonesia by David Ciang. KlikSaya’s model is simple, it’s contextual. Think of it as Google AdSense for the Indonesians. I don’t think it’s a ads network you will want to sign up with if you are not Indonesia, as it only pays out to Indon banks.

Hi there!
Actually it is BLOG2u that is the service provider for blogs not BAK2u :)
BAK2u is more in the anti-theft software.

Anyone can make a comparison between local ad networks and Blog2u?
Replyhongkiat April 7th, 2008
Paddy: Thanks and corrected.
Kay: Consider Blog2u’s model as Netizen, but pays publishers first day of the campaign instead.

I am using nuffnang and advertlets currently in my blog.Well,i did sign up blog2u,i found in terms of features,blog2u is really out from my list.
ReplyFelex Tan April 7th, 2008
Sorry,accidentally press submit button,CONTINUE from above,I can use nuffnang to track the traffic source such as from which country and how many visitors to my website.I dont see this feature at blog2u.This is very important advertising should have in orfer we can analyze our performance.

Felex Tan - To analyze website performance, I believe Google Google Analytics will be a better choice.
Hongkiat - By paying publishers first day of the campaign, then I believe it won’t be a big amount of payment. Just my guess.
Replyhongkiat April 8th, 2008
Kay: I guess it depends on the publisher’s blog. If the advertiser agrees to pay a huge sum for ads, then Blog2u will send the money to the blogger before campaign starts.

I see.
ReplyBtw HongKiat, how comes I can see a logo next to Paddy Tan’s and your comment?

There are so many popping out, but can they drive the sales as there are even talk of US Based companies in town. Even I am being drafted to task.
