An interesting alternative to adsense (1)

Tweet

In some of my previous posts I have mentioned that to me putting Google adsense or anything like it (Bidvertiser and many others of the same ilk)is counter productive - here are the reasons. 1)You've had a visitor land on your site only to see them leave as soon as they click an ad and your reard? a few lousy cents. Yes I know some people claim that they make big bucks out of adsense - (invariably they seem to be the same people who claim to know the adwords secret - go figure that) and I do have Google adsense type ads on several of my websites, but I have never regarded them as being my major income earner. 2) Google take a very dim view of their ads being displayed on anything resembling a traffic exchange, paid to read, or safelist site, thereby limiting the ways you can drive traffic to your site. 2)Let's think about this - let's say you have a golfing website and on your sidebar is a Google text ad that reads improve your golf swing in seven days - so your visitor clicks on that and goes to a sales site that sells this "great" secret to improving your swing, he gets excited and buys the book for let's guess coservatively $32. The owner of the book gets maybe $9, the affiliate who placed the ad gets $23 and you get maybe 30c. Who did the work? You did -you got the visitor, the visitor clicked on an ad at your site and two other people are laughing all the way to the bank. Now I don't advocate using adwords or clickbank where most of these products are accessible unless you are prepared to lose a couple of hundred dollars to start with, and most people can't afford to do this, but I remember coming across a site that makes it possible to profit from clickbank profits without having to invest in advertising - its called Better Text Ads and you can check it out here http://www.bettertextads.com/20443 Here's how it works. Better Text ads in its simplest form displays ads containing clickbank affiliate links on your site. Clickbank generally pays commissions on every sale that you make somewher between the order of 50% and 70% of the sale You simply place a simple java script code on your site or blog, and the better text ads will be shown on your site. The first four visitors who visit the site every day will view your upline's ads - after that your ads with your clickbank affiliate link will be shown. And of course for every referral that you make to better text ads your ads will be displayed every day four times on your referral's website - If you don't own a website there are alternatives at better text ads to utilse. I believe tha Better Text Ads is a better alternative to Google becuase you will potentially benefit from any sales that are made from your website - of course I still believe that your web site should contain affiliate links embedded in your web site - banners from the Internet Marketing centre are great but better text ads is a good supplementary means of income PS: Internet Marketing Centre's affiliate website is here http://www.marketingtips.com/sr/t.x/849150 and to see what better text ads look like, you might like to view my blog at http://profitsentinel.blogspot.com/
