    Do you make more money off you referrals or ads for content?

    Also how much do you average in earnings every month?

    that's depends on what your intention is...

    if you're planning on earning more on referral, then you will have to treat it differently then ads content...

    start by making a review post on ref products...then you'll see something...

    I've made a few $$ from Firefox referrals in my time, but I also make quite a bit from Adsense For Content.. The other day I made a post in my blog about Adsense For Content ads for Firefox arbitragers paying nearly as much as a full Firefox Conversion..

    Unless you're comparing something like a Firefox referral to a Adsense for Content ad for a Firefox referral, it's kinda like comparing apples and oranges..

    Only the rare person makes more with referrals. Most people give up on it and move only for content ads.

    I've never used Referral Ads, but I'm guessing its just like running an affiliate program?

    If so it would make sense to write an article leading the person into the idea that the referral button is a good button to click. Not sure how you currently do it but thats how I would do it.

    I think we're on the other side of the fence for one of our projects... In AdWords we have a PPA campaign... is that the same as referral on the AdSense side?

    It is the ads for content pays you more when compared to the referrals. Hence concentrate on the first one.
