Is there an adult "ad sense"?

Yeah, I would go with Sheepguy's advice there. Have tried the adbrite adult version and it's not comparable to Adsense, and for a good reason too. Thing is, in my experience, adult clicks are not worth more than couple of cents usually. Think about your ratios, with most sponsors you get about 1:1500 or so, right? And that generates say an average of $30, if you're lucky. That's 2 cents a click there. Now, the network has to take its share, and it has to be a good chunk if they want to keep the network clean of fraud (which would drive potential advertisers away) and that takes a lot of work. Leaving maybe a cent per click, tops. With some programs having even worse ratios, you won't get too many advertisers willing to pay more than 1-2 cents a click, leaving very little for the publisher. In short, not as profitable as adsense, no matter how you look at it.
