Adsense are cost-per-click( when user clicks and doesn’t buy, you get paid), while referral are cost-per-action( when user clicks and doesn’t buy, you don’t get paid).

You’re not been happy with Google’s referral? If there is one thing that lets things down with Google’s referral are her commission very low. The benefit of this program are for some website that have particular contents, made to others publishers. Personally I were disappointed by the lack of products that don’t made it a complete PPC program.

Recently, appears that Google is listening to the blogosphere’s because has released the new referrals 2.0 system and it’s available to the most of their Adsense users. We noticed a very interesting changes in referrals 2.0 system. The new Referrals 2.0 allows publishers to choose multiple categories so you can find the right ads for your sites. If you want ads for a specific category, advertiser, or product, referrals 2.0 will give you the control to decide. Also Google enables you to choose your referral  products through keyword.

At this point I want to make a question: I’m not sure on related advertisers in multiple categories. I looked the travel category and found several advertisers for Adsl, while in health category I’ve found advertisers for Hotel.

However, in the end, I feel that Referal 2.0 has a lot of potential to become a prime PPC program on the net. Anyway, love or hate the new referrals 2.0, I want to raise another question though. Which is the CPC future? I think that for google there is no reason to stay out from CPC program and it will use both. To be honest, we’re not sure what to expect after this but I think that those are just both for your business.

Google Adsense is one of the most popular ways to create passive income.It shows ads that are relevant to your contents and integrated very well inside your website.

Instead, Google Adwords allows to make advertise on Google search engine, so your ad may appear next to the search results. Even if you already appear in Google’s search results, AdWords can help you increase your traffic on Google and other websites. Google’s text advertisements includes one title line and two content text lines.

What’s happens when an advertiser signs up for a Google Adwords account. Well, it can create one or more advertisments that it want to have appear on Google’s search result pages or on websites.

The best way of this business is that advertise pay only when customers click on the banner ads. This amount it comes subdivided between Google and website owner. For example, if Google pay website owner around $o.40,  the advertiser has paid around $2.00. So if you have a few thousand visitors a week, you have a chance to make about $50 from your website in a week.

In this brief introduction I walk you through the key features of what looks to be a great affiliate programs.

Step 1) Sign up for an Adsense account. All you have to do is enter your website URL,  and your personal data. You can use Adsense code testing on your blog only after you’re approved by Adsense Team.

Step 2) Now it’s time to configure your own Adsense banner (layout size and color scheme).  AdSense offers a number of ad formats and advertising products. I encourage to experiment changing the placements once to week.

According to the Adsense policy, users can put up to three ad units on each page, and up to three link units may also be placed on each page. Like Ad format I use a large Rectangle(336×280) on the top of the home page and inside on any my blog posts.

Step 3) What colour palettes are the most successful? If you want the biggest revenue impact for the smallest effort, we recommend optimising your colour palettes. Choosing the right palettes can mean the difference between ads your user will notice and click on and ads he/she will skip right over. I use a white background color and a white border color that’s are the same as the background color of my page.

 Step 4) Alternate ads allow you to use your ad space in the event that Google is unable to serve targeted ads to your page. By default, Google shows public service ads (PSAs) if no targeted ads are available. By specifying a colour, image, HTML page or ad server of your choice, you can make sure that your advertising space is always being used effectively, either by targeted Google ads or by your own choice of content.

Step 5) Give in mind, any method that artificially generates clicks or impressions on your Google ads is strictly prohibited according to Adsense police.

Conclusion

In the end, I feel that Google has a lot of potential to become the first affiliate program destination for those that want to make money online. The importance of this services for those looking to create an online company, it is absolutely essential part of the process.

Every blogger has post or two in his/her mind that’s been sitting there for ages. Is the one thing that anyone with a website hopes for again and again are how to make money from it. Well, if you are good at marketing yourself the world wide web gives you unprecedented chance to get much money. One of the great benefits of this work is that you can set your own hours and sit back and relax while your money grow on Auto-Pilot.

Which are an high affiliate Payout?

This is not the first time I have talked about these different forms of revenues. I always like to revisit the list. Google Adsense is one of my prefer popular affiliate program to monetize my blog. I signed up for my account and started poking around the site. If you are new to Adsense it can be confusing to understand how to use it effectively to generate steady income. It also takes time to understand what are the important things that you should be checking. Most websites are losing bucket of money each day because they do an atrocious job of selling to their visitors.

Why increasing your conversion rate is more important.

Conversion Rate = (Number of Visitors Who Reach Goals x 100%) / Total Numbers of Visitors

Google has just released a powerful tool ‘Google Website Optimizer’ that allows you to test changes to your website – and will tell you which changes brought in the most customers.

If I doubled your website conversion rate, it means your cost-per-acquisition would halve. This tool shows you how much extra you’d earn.

But there are times when it is worth considering the alternatives. I don’t use Amazon, because offers a base commission of 4% on sales, and you’ve need to sell a tons of book before to make much money.

I’m been using Text Link Ads on this site for a couple of months now and I am actually surprised at the amount of people that don’t use this service to make money with their sites. It pays me $25 for signing up a new advertise or publisher. Of course, I encourage this because it doesn’t cost anything. Look up and sign up for a free account.

Also I use Kontera contents link. My private deal with Kontera gives me a percentage of the volume generated by sites I refer to the network.

Passive income is really the best type of income you can make. Once you lay in the foundation, you don’t have to work anymore for the income to keep coming in. All those sites I signed up will continue to generate money for months and years to come.

If you want to make money online, this is a chance for you to learn from both of us, as we use the internet to show. Here below is just a micro selection to some of suggestion that my opinion can help you to optimize your adsense banner.

1) How you can add Adsense on your blog

The Adsense Deluxe Wordpress plugin is what I use to put Google ads on my blog. I’ve personally used it, and I can says that it’s easy to use.  The most important factors which contribute to his success are that you can create multiple ad units and decide where put it into the contents and while ad sizes must have.  It also works for yahoo Pubblisher Network(YPN).  If you want to put you ad banner inside contents you can insert it between this code:

<div style = “float: right; margin:5px ><-adsense-></div>

According to adsense term of service you can put up to three Adsense unit in every blog spot and one adlink and one Google seach box.

3) Google section target

My first impression with Google targeting has been not many positive, I don’t used it for long time, someone are likely to find this a little inconvenient. Instead there are one advantage to use Google section target.The HTML tags to emphasise a page section take the following format:

 <!– google_ad_section_start –>

<!– google_ad_section_end –>

You can put section targeting to make suggestions about as many sections of a page as you like.

4) Using the competitive Adfilter

Google allows you to block up to 200 URLs. If you don’t be an Adwords advertisers you can not know which are the competitive URL.

I was really surprised of all opportunity to make money online. I’ve not had still the occasion to mention the new addition to the Chitika ad unit line. It’s still in beta. Unlike most of the others contextual advertising, if you’ve not heard about it, it’s similar to the Kontera’s Content link.
The system run for keywords that they can match to an advertsment. When users moves mouse over the links, they get a floating tool boxs, like a small screens containing an ad.
Not all chitika users they have the chance to be invited to test Chitika Content Link.
However I think that Adsense are always the better contextual advertising, but I think there are many users who would like to have an additional revenue from their blog with these new contextual advertising.

It’s time to talk about an alternative to adsense affiliate programs. You have made it clear that you would never ending make money with this programs and that you want direct answers on it. Anyone who has spent time around me, talking to me, knows the I says all about it.

So today I want to say something around Kontera content link. Kontera is one of the best ways to make money from advertising using contentlink. Kontera actually I think it going to do something of new on the affiliate programs. Her technology enable to transform text in content link.

“ContentLinks are contextually relevant keywords discovered in real time on a publisher’s web page that are automatically turned into a link to the most relevant and highest paying text ad from one of Kontera’s thousands of advertisers.”

Normally kontera requires a site have a minimun 500000 page views per month. In a recent post John chown launched a solution to prevent bolded text in content link. One of her initial test was using a text filter span code:

“<span name=KonaFilter>Any text within the span will not get spidered for
ContentLink</span>”

It would be pretty difficult to put if you already have articles in your blog why you must put it in any articles. So john has contacted kontera team to ask them to find another solution. The answer is here:

“var dc_isBoldActive= ‘no’ ;”

 Just put the following line of code into your ContentLink JavaScript block. Basically it simple but it make all the difference in Kontera content link.

I’ve received a few requests to write a blog post on how to use Adwords affiliate program to increase your traffic and income your profit. So I learn you a way to use it better today. Using Adwords you can send traffic at you blog by others blog.

The problem when you use Adwords is that you can get two results on your profit, one good and one bad.    1) The visitor buys the products you offering(good).  2) The visitor not buys the products you offering(bad).

Also if the AdWord cost is less than the profit from the sales, then your business will be good. If the ads cost more than sale, you need to change strategy or business will be bad and you could just be flushing your ad dollars down the drain.  

As I’d said, with adwords you can increase traffic to your affiliate landing page. Well, a way to use adwords is how John kown has made in her blog. Let me show her example. John Kown has made running ad banner on problogger.  It has purchasing Google ads to put on problogger that he feel are a good match for what it offers.

I’ve been really busy during this hours, but now that I’m free, I’m really happy to report a new upgrade of citibank, so I thought I give it a quick mention in this blog.
Today we are getting our readers to know the new citibank promotion for new customers. Citibank will give you $100 of cold had cash.Citibank point out:

I think that it’s technically a deal good, what do you think? Let me know your comment.

Recently someone that it has started with affiliate marketing has made to me a interesting question?

Hi Nicola:

I want to open an account with clickbank, but  Bangkok is not listed in the clickbank country list. As I can make?

Best Regards:
Mike

Hi Mike,

Unfortunately Clickbank doesn’t accept Bangkok accounts, but I can suggest you to open a Singapore Clickbank account.
When cheques mailed to your Singapore address, either bank mails it in a local bank of malaysian.
However, according to Clickbank faq: “No, we are unable to accommodate address change requests that include a change to a country that is not on our accepted countries list.”

Today I’m going to share my personal experience and opinion on wrong ad.
As I was searching tennis as keyword, something has made pinged me.

As you can see on right, the advertising is in the wrong place. Why would a real estate investments in this market? Only why they sell playing fields?

Absolutely stunning!
It’s as if I sell an car in an supermarket. It’s also in the 2 position as ranking.

I can understand if the headline includes the word ‘tennis’ like keywords, but in this case are ‘Real Estate Investments’. It’s wrong! Sure it just gets very low click.

If you want to be sure of the success, it’s better to target phrases which contain ranked keywords instead, because it’s more competitive. Getting ad ranked for certain keywords in Google’s search result must be the best ways for web developers.
