    Yea referals is different than ppc, you may promote the product, write about how you used it and recommend it, etc. Dont blatantly say please click my referall ad tho

    Giving reviews is the best way to get people to click your referral ads

    A Review site is a great way to make referral income, but I don't think adsense referrals is the best option, it might even be the worst. Check out amazon associates, azoogleads, etc - there are a lot of referral programs geared specifically and solely towards referrals, and may be better suited to a review site.

    YES...

    And don't forget about Comission Junction ..

    This is a good idea, and many people make a LOT of money this way.. the hard part is getting enough targeted traffic..

    Because Adsense referral don't allow to promote via "LINK" , its easy to drive traffic to targeted visitors.

    For example if we wrote a blog about "FireFox" , then we can put a link like Download Firfox Here.

    I thought that was allowed though? You can drive traffic to the product, right?

    I think what he meant was, google's referral ads aren't always available as a text link, and if they are, it's going to be something pre-set bt the advertiser like, "buy our widgets, we have best widgets in the world!", and the best way to do affiliate sales is to naturally place your affiliate link in the text of your review, like this, "I really enjoyed using this widget [link], I would recommend buying it!" - without this option, google's referrals are going to be one of the worst programs on the market for earnings.

    Kudy's right. You're not allowed to modify google's ads in anyway, so if the link says "BUY XYZ COMPUTERS, WE ROCK" then you can't put the anchor text as "Go to XYZ computers site". You have to keep them the same.

    Wow, okay, I guess people just aren't reading what I wrote, or maybe I didn't explain it well enough? Google doesn't compete with their passive-advertiser-written-ads, the best is to allow the more aggressive publisher written links.
