I started Blogging back in February 2008 and I'm very thankful to God that He can given me great success. I have managed to hit $1000 mark a month already and its going really well for me. Recently a few advertisers have contacted me directly and they want to place a few ads on my websites. Since they are paying me really good I really wanna avail this opportunity and work with them. Also I haven't tried this before so is it okay for me to put their direct ads in my blogroll or put banners while working with Adsense at the same time? The big issue is that most of these ads aren't related to my niche. I'll appreciate any sort of help here. P.S I'm aware of the "no follow" command...if u have anything more useful....do let me know
Yes, you can do both adsense and direct ad and another yes if that direct ad is related or somewhat called "themed links"
There should not be any problem if you place direct ads. with Adsense. If you had to choose between the two, I would suggest you go for direct advertising as it would help you build long term relationship with advertisers directly and that too without giving a commission to middlemen..!
