Freedom from Click Fraud Awaits!
Most advertising systems online pay by the click, and thus have to guard against click fraud; horror stories abound about people who have had all their money tied up in Google Adwords or similar projects disappear because they were somehow found guilty of it.
Finally, a new system appears, where advertisers pay only by how long their ad stays visible on your site. It's called Project Wonderful, and it really can make you money!

About the Infinite Auction System
But it's not for an entire 24 hours... they win the right to be immediately visible for as long as they're willing to pay for the spot, until someone else decides they're willing to pay more!
You pay for the time you were the top bidder, they pay for theirs, and as a result, everybody wins (especially the person getting paid!)
Payment by the half-hour!
Project Wonderful pays out on ads every half-hour, so even if someone's ad doesn't stay up for an entire 24-hour period, you can still make money off it!
An Excerpt from "Gaming Project Wonderful"
Don't Be Picky. Waiting for a publisher to accept your ad is a drag, and likewise, you're missing out on money from each and every ad you do accept, because you get credited every 30 minutes! Even if you like one ad over another, keep in mind that everyone else's bids drive up the price of the one getting the top slot right now, so being picky is in nobody's best interest.

How Much Money Can I Make?
It depends on a lot of things -- how much traffic you get, what sort of competition you have (i.e. a site about video games as opposed to, say, handmade plush), and what size ads you offer, as well as how many.
Incredibly popular sites can see as much as $50 or more a day per ad! For sitting back and allowing your advertisers to do all the work, that adds up quick!
7 Different Ad Sizes for you to choose from!
- Buttons: at 117x30 pixels, these tiny things will fit just about anywhere on your site, and you can fit lots of 'em! They don't pay very much though... and they are rather small.
- Squares: the darling of the music and blogging world, at 125x125 pixels, these symmetrical beauties can pack a lot of content into a little space! Also, as a bonus, you can use them on Entrecard too!
- Half-Banners: Just as tall as an ordinary banner but half the width, at 234x60 pixels you can fit almost as much information into only half the space! Also, if you're already hosting banners on your site, you can now fit TWO half-banners into the same space...
- Banners: at 468x60 pixels, these staples of internet advertising haven't gone anywhere... except into your wallet!
- Rectangles: the newest ad type to hit Project Wonderful, at 300x250 pixels, these things give you LOTS of wide open space to make a good first impression!
- Leaderboards: you're playing with the big boys now! At 728x90 pixels, These ads are to banners what The Incredible Hulk is to Bruce Banner!
- Skyscrapers: yowza! At 600x160 pixels, these pups give you about the same amount of real estate as leaderboards do, but in a vertical format that can dominate the sides of your websites!
An Excerpt from "Why I Click on my own Ads"
Believe it or not, Google Adwords has a policy that states that you may not click on ads displayed on your own site. Which would be fine, if you got a say in what appeared. You don't.
Me, I like knowing what is attached to my blog, even temporarily, so I use services that don't do that to me. Project Wonderful gives me a whole list every morning of things people think my readers (and therefore this writer) will be interested in.
I'm lazy. I appreciate things that come to me, especially when they beg prettily and offer to pay me for my time and attention. Nice advertiser. Pat Pat Pat.
