Name:WebMynd - Publishers
Product URL:http://www.webmynd.com/html/publishers.html
Description:You promote a search sidebar browser add-on on your site. The add-on offers something of value to your audience — personalized searches enhanced with your content — and the install process takes less than ten seconds.

Once the user installs the add-on, the sidebar appears on all their searches. Within the sidebar we show relevant search ads supplied by Yahoo. When a user clicks on those ads, you get the revenue.

The result is that you've effectively swapped your remnant display ad impressions for ongoing revenue from relevant search advertising.
