Graphic ads or text links?

[HellaGood]

Which do you find has a better click-through rate, and more profitable? Why do the affiliate networks say "no text links"?

 

[BeefyChong]

text ads definitely

my site gets 70 clicks a day on text ads and about 10 on graphic ads

many graphic ads are screaming "don't click me!"

almost nobody clicks banners if they aren't particularly intriguing or controversial
we are so used to see banner ads that we don't really see them anymore

I'm working on an affiliate site where the banners (125x125 squares) are integrated into the copy and the site and look less like advertisements and more like part of the copy.

I honestly haven't really looked into the text ads quite yet.

Text ads definitely as you can customize them much more and integrate them into your content much better without them looking so much like ads.
