AdBrite's simplicity spread through word-of-mouth, and within the first two years, more than 1,000 sites were using AdBrite to sell ads.
The duo officially incorporated the company in 2004 and teamed up with Sequoia Capital, who’d previously funded companies including Google, Yahoo, and Apple. Since then, thousands more advertisers and publishers have entrusted AdBrite to manage their online advertising needs.«Less

You don't have to fully compete with Google, a little share of the market is already a lot of money.

Google is not the end-all, be-all... that's true. They WILL be replaced in the online ad space. But, it won't be adbrite unless they get their act together and offer something worthwhile.

Lousy inventory. Many non-working sites. Guess the investment money is all that’s keeping them going |
