Google AdSense Program VS Affiliate Programs

Hello,

Thanks for reading my message. I have one question:

I have been using Google AdSense program but I have not earned much profit from my sites. I tried to use male enhancement affiliate programs but don't earn much profit either.

Which one is better so I can focus on?

Google AdSense Program VS Affiliate Programs

Thanks very much!

Any idea is appreciated.

 

Affiliate marketing. just do the math on adsense and you will see that you need thousands of visitors every week just to stand chance of making a few hundred dollars!!

 

you can mix them both, but if you want the most success affiliate marketing is the way to go.

 

You need both of them... the best thing is test the market with it... see which one work for you...

 

Using them combined can be the best

And you need targeted serious traffic if you have 300 viz/day and whant to make serious money IT IS NOT POSSIBLE ...

 

Affiliate Marketing, although I do think if your just starting out you should try adsense.

 

I would say affiliate marketing, i just prefer it, rather than paying a lot for adsense.

 

Back in the day Adsense was king. They paid 75% of the click. Once they got most the market share then dropped down to 5%-15% comp. on the click like everyone else.

If your going to push adverting I personally do Pay Per Actions with non min earning limit. That way you always get your money each month from everyone, even if its 2 dollars. With 300k unique visitors a month I make more with AOL's banner network than I make with Adsense.

Now of days I do not do as much of the ad stuff or affiliate marketing I once did. I cut out the middle men and sell our own products and pay the affiliates. More fun, more cash with less work.

 

adsense is much easier to earn you money fast if you have enough traffic, and can be constant.

affiliate marketing can sometimes be more rewarding in the sense of commission percentage.

they both earn money in different way, neither is better than the other, i think...

combined could be a good way to maximize your profits for sure!

 

Once again, I agree with you.

I first started with Adsense. Do you know how much I have made with my Adsense account since I opened it up in 2007? Around $37.00. That isn't even enough to get paid by Google. I have made a lot more with affiliate programs.

Like Andy said, just do the math. With adsense you never know how much you will make. 39 cents? 50 cents? Nothing? But with affiliate products, you know how much you will make if someone buys something. And it is a heck of a lot more money.

 

focus to adsense first, for my opinion. Because it can make money easiest. After you've got some monthly income from it, then start aff. You must have several business because adsense and google can't rely on.

 

Stick to affiliate marketing. If you don't have large sums of traffic, you will be wasting your time with adsense.

Idea!. was running adsense on my site for 2 years, making on a good day 5 dollars. then decided to move over to a actual product, now making 8k a month with the same site.

I've actually just started turning it into a full time business!

So find your niche product or affiliate and give your traffic peeps what they actually came there for! This will also reduce bounce rate and higher traffic.

 

i also consider to get into af marketing hope it will be worth it !

 

Different niches perform better in different situations. In some cases you will make more money through affiliate promotion, in some through AdSense the only way to know is to test it.

 

It depends on your products/services

 

dont users have to buy the product on affiliate programs for you to get paid? if you have a site that is geared toward people who dont wanna spend money, is affiliate programs really the way to go..i have a fantasy sports website where users will get real money if they get certain amount of points..will these users really click on the ads and subscribe?

 

If you have general broad niche site then you should use Adsense and if you have very targeted niche site then you should promote affiliate offers.

 

I think its depends on your website ..
Can we have the url so we can help you better ?

 

It depends on your product. But I think in general aff is better

 

Adsense is a simple concept but google takes a very close look at the site that it's on. It may work for awhile and then not. Also it pays so little. There are over 10 million methothelioma sites out there... a highpaying keyword.

Years ago more people made good money in adsense. If yuo look around more and more are saying they are not making any money with it.

Better ways to monetize a site. Better paying offers out there. So many choices. Adsense is not on the top if my list.
