Ditch selling for adsense?

    I'm posting this here as it's not entirely appropriate to adsense.

    I have a website that sells an ebook. Although I've had relative success over the years selling it, it's a constant struggle to get traffic to my sales letter.

    I am thinking about breaking down the ebook and giving it away free as articles in order to have a more content driven site, and focus instead on google ads. I will probably also have a forum.

    What are people's thoughts about this, has anyone been through the same thing? Is there more success in giving content away than selling it?

    I was in adsense a few years ago, I am not a big fan. These days I prefer to sell hight ticket affiliate programs no in the IM niche.

    If you sell a physical product you should be able to make more money doing that, than you could ever make with AdSense on the site, unless its a high traffic expensive niche.
