Mix Google Adsense With Your Affiliate Income

Affiliate marketing and Google Adsense.

If you have a website and if you want to earn cash, affiliate marketing can be the best possible way for you. The only thing required is a website good in content and you can start earning money. One of the best ways of earning money can be a association with Google Adsense.

I used to use Google Adsense on my sites and when I did the income was up to around £10 per day extra. However Google banned me for clicking on my own ads, even though I had a script installed that disabled the Adsense Ads for my IP and I couldn’t see them so I couldn’t click on them, they still banned me. They do that a lot so if you do use Google Adsense, don’t depend on it.

The first question that should be asked is why one should go for affiliate marketing itself. Well, tomes can be written about the merits and demerits of affiliate marketing. To state in simple words, affiliate marketing is the simplest and the easiest ways of earning money online. If you believe in getting your product advertised online, it can be a very good platform to get your products advertised. The best thing about it is the actual cost that you incur through affiliate marketing is far less than what you would have to incur if you employ any advertising agency.

Affiliate marketing per se is a business arrangement between a merchant and an affiliate. The merchant allows the affiliate to advertise his product on the affiliate’s website. For this advertisement the affiliate gets paid. Thus, it is an arrangement between the websites of both the persons. Obviously, there can be many affiliates for a single merchant. Actually, the affiliate develops a website keeping in mind the products of the merchant and places on his site links to the merchant’s site.

The affiliate gets paid for diverting traffic to the merchant’s site. The most popular affiliate program for affiliates is the pay per click program. Here, the affiliates get paid for every click that the visitor makes on the link irrespective of the sales that he makes. While the most popular affiliate programs for the merchants are the pay per sale and pay per lead. Here the affiliates paid only if the visitor makes a purchase or if he becomes a lead. In this way merchants feel that their money is well spent. But to be precise, sales always depend on the volume of traffic that your site experiences and as such affiliate programs are always good.

Now we come to Google AdSense. It is also a form of affiliate marketing. Google AdSense acts as the intermediary for the merchants and the affiliates. Merchants have to sign up with Google and provide text ads (links to the merchant’s site) related to their products. These ads then appear in Google searches and also on the site of the affiliates who have signed up with Google AdSense. The best advantage with Google AdSense is that the affiliates just have to put a code on his website and Google takes care of all other things. It would sort out the most relevant ads for your site and as such it becomes  beneficial both for the merchants as well as for the affiliates.

Every time a link is being clicked, Google charges the merchant and a part of that earning is paid to the concerned affiliate. Generally this amount is paid monthly and Google also provides tools to webmasters to keep track of the earnings that they are making through a certain ad.
