    Adsense Referal closing . what your next plan



    To be real , Adsense Referal makes about 30% of my revenue per month

    The closing of the referral program will means a large drop at my income per month..



    Wonder how many DigitalPoints users will get affected and whats your next big plan?

    Mine would probably try to increase my adsense contents ads ctr % if possible.

    My referral account is very minimum. So it does affect me at all.

    Firefox referrals were 90% of my site's income. I'll be replacing them with Tribal Fusion CPM banners which earn a fraction of what Firefox did for me. (See URL in sig line. Yeah, I'll miss Firefox.)

    Mozilla has a new and improved affiliate program of their own coming down the pike. They've made mention of it several times on spreadfirefox.com. I'm keeping an eye on it in case they decide to start paying for downloads, but I'm also not holding my breath.

    As referrals earned a minor percentage of my overall income, I will not be affected to a great extent. Hope google will open another door when it closes the referrals door... :)

    Will Google start some other service instead of Google Adsense Referral? Most of my adsense income comes from MFF referral.

    I tried out referrals and it did not work for me at all. The Firefox button looked cool, but everyone with a brain already uses it...

    I never had much success with referrals so I'm not losing any sleep. I notice that Google Feeds has already appeared as a possible replacement.

    My next plan is to instruct you people to use proper English that an 8 year old does. "What your next plan" should be what's your next plan. Look up the word "is" in the dictionary or do you think it doesn't exist?

    Referrals were a good source of Income. One download of Firfox gave me US$1.00

    It will be a huge loss for people like me.

    If this is true then you can earn more from other affiliate networks.
