Is Google Adsense Dead?

By Hass67

Many people will tell you that joining Google Adsense is the easiest way to make money online. Is it really? No doubt, Google will pay you when visitors to your site click on Adsense ads. But how many people like to click on Adsense ads. Not more than 20-30 for each 100 visitor to your site.

Mostly the earnings per click will be like a few cents. To make a few thousand dollars each month using the Adsense Program, you need to develop a lot of traffic to your site.

Just by simply putting Adsense ads on your site wont make you any money. You need many visitors or in other words, you need massive traffic. Getting traffic is the most important skill a new internet marketer should learn. There are many ways to get traffic to your site.

So you are not able to get enough traffic? You will come across sites that will tell you in order to make money with Adsense you need to focus on niches where earnings per click are good. What are those niches? These are niches like Credit Repair, Mortgage and Student Loan. Advertisers like to pay up to $10-20 per click on Google Adwords.

Hey, these advertisers are paying this money for getting a click on the Adwords Search. Many will pay $2-5 only when advertising on Google Content Network. Google Adsense is the content network.

Many advertisers know this fact that traffic on the content network is not highly targeted. So they pay less on the content network. Google keeps a good percentage of it as its commission. Google never discloses how much.

You only will get between $ 0.5-1 for each click. Getting traffic to a highly paying market niches is also not an easy job as many people are competing to snatch that traffic from others.

Why do you want to waste your traffic with Adsense when you can get a much higher payout with other affiliate programs like Clickbank, Commission Junction etc?

Have you ever heard of CPA Marketing? You can make a lot of money with CPA Marketing. CPA companies can pay you $2-5 for getting a form with two to three fields filled online. For getting a zip code submitted, these networks pay you as high as $2.

Then Google can all of a sudden terminate your Adsense account for no apparent reason by simply accusing you of clicking on the ads yourself. What about an appeal? There is no appeal to the Adsense termination notice.
