adsense is king but you must try to find out products or put any related affliate links near your adsense code...! once i got banned from adsense but that was my mistake by using adsense arbitrage, i Hadn't Been Banned if i used any products sale link on that page... be care... you will be a beggar if you put all eggs in one basket.
Clickbank links are prefect to do this. Ad a couple clickbank links that are site wide and you can avoid a "made for adsense" website. You don't have to use clickbank only. Mix it up, use clickbank, Commission Junction, and whatever you can use as an affiliate link. Even if you don't sell any of the affiliate products at least it will look like you're trying.
leander, this is a good thread. I never really remember this because I always just add affiliate links into sites so that I have the potential to make more money. I forgot about arbitrage
Can you put the link where google mentioned about this type of policy. I think google allow to use other adsense network. If I am wrong, somebody explain me.
you think all these noobs will listen to that? It seems all they have is adsense, hence all the cry about low earnings and crap. They will never learn to have more than one stream of potential income.
I just dont think my site is big enough to ad any more ads. Any more and it will be a turn off. Thanks for the advice.
if you have adsense on ur blog and u want to use other networks, well really depends on how u do it. If u have a post talking and pointing to an affiliate product, that is fine !
I believe people forgot what AdSense stands for: Ads that make Sense. The whole purpose of AdSense network is to deliver ads relative to the page content. That's what Google does with great success. I bet they tired of assholes who tries to make a quick buck putting only network links on their pages. Are you tired of commercials on TV? Imagine watching a movie in the evening and 90% of the time you'd be watching commercials! What would you say? The same goes for AdSense. If your pages are full of good content - your PPC grows dramatically and your payout sky-rocket as well. Keep that in-mind. just a thought cheers
Very good advice.. Especially when dealing with adsense.. Always spread you revenue streams out among different sources.
another matter is traffic source you must need multiple traffic source 3 to 5 sources search engine direct traffic referral advertise "black hat" but dont put adsense on landing page
