1.Affiliate Marketing

For me Affiliate Marketing works best, so that is the main reason why I have put affiliate marketing at number one position in “AdSense Alternatives list”.
In affiliate Marketing, you just need to promote vendor(say XYZ) product or service and when someone (say Mr. A) makes a purchase using your affiliate id, then your vendor will pay you commission. Commission amount depends upon what type of product you are promoting. For instance, commission for Premium WordPress Plugins will be less than Web hosting and WordPress Themes.

How Affiliate Marketing Works?

As long as you are following right tactics, no one can stop you from becoming successful in affiliate marketing. Some of the tactics which you must follow for becoming successful in affiliate marketing are listed below:

• Choose the Right Affiliate
• Promote Relevant Products
• Build Email List
• Use Banners and write Honest Reviews about Products
• Keep Calm and Be Patient

Sharesale, Commission Junction, Amazon Associates and ClickBank are some of the best well-known Affiliate Network. So, now what are you waiting for ? Join any of the above mentioned affiliate network and make money from Affiliate Marketing.

2.Direct Advertising

Direct Advertising is yet another popular Google AdSense alternative. Basically in this advertising method, companies directly contact you or you contact them for their product reviews, sponsorship or advertising. As there is a direct contact between you and advertiser, so you don’t have to give any commission to third-party such as Google AdSense, Media.net and BuySellAds.
Furthermore, you can set your own terms and conditions and also have full control on your ads. Typically it is seen that blogs which gets direct advertisers constantly are seen as authority in the niche and also build long-term relationships with advertisers.

Now, before you approach advertisers directly make sure that you have good traffic, contact us and dedicated advertising page on your blog.

Your advertisement page should have the following information:

• Why they should advertise on your blog?
• Available Ad slots with price details and mode of payment
• Google analytics page views and unique visitor’s p/m.
• Google PageRank, AlexaRank and Domain Authority
• Information about your audience and niche.
• Social media profiles

How to Increase Your Adsense Earnings Using Ads Category

Every now and then, both pro-bloggers and newbie-bloggers keep looking for a better way to tweak their Adsense in other to earn more.
There are many and different ways or methods one can increase Google Adsense earnings. And you might ask yourself, why should I keep reading this when I have read over the same thing all over the Internet times without number? All what I can say… keep reading!
This method, which you might already know or must have come across is very simple and effective but most bloggers keep off their eyes from it. This method is very effective in increasing adsense earnings apart from the controversial ad placement, color blend and bigger size. I called this method ‘Category Filter‘.

This is what we will be doing…
We are going to check through all the categories (about 50) and block those that are performing very poor.
This method is used to allow or block categories of ads from showing on our blogs or sites.
In short, this is how Google put it;

Category blocking allows you to prevent ads from upto 50 categories and sub-categories from appearing on your site

Okay, let us go on to block the less productive ads categories in our Adsense account…

1. Login to your Google Adsense account and click ‘Allow or block ads‘ tab (in the New Interface)

2. Select ‘General Categories‘

3. Select the product you wish to work on. Here, I choose the products one after the other from ‘Content’ to ‘Mobile Content’ excluding ‘Search’ because it has no category settings

4. Scroll down to see ‘All categories’ in tabular form with the ‘Category name’, ‘Ad Impression (%)’ and ‘Earnings (%)’

5. Check through the list of categories thoroughly, including the ‘Ad Impression’ and ‘Earnings’

6. Weigh the ‘Ad Impression’ against ‘Earnings’ for each category

7. Block any category that is performing very low. For example, if the ‘Arts & Entertainment‘ category has ’15% Ad Impressions’ and ’0.8% Earnings’, then you need no prophet to tell you that this category should be blocked.

The main reason we have to block the un-performing ads categories is simple. We need to create room for well-performing ads to appear on our blog so that enough visitors can see them and thus, increasing our CTR which inturns increases our Google Adsense income.
Google will even recommend not to block some categories by using the phrase

Too big to block

That is because that particular ads category is performing well on your blog/site.
However, some ‘Sensitive Categories’ might overlapped with some ‘General Categories’ and ‘Sub-categories’. So make sure you also check out the ‘Sensitive Category‘.
Repeat this process for all the products you are running on Google Adsense. For me, I have just 3 products (excluding Adsense for Search) which are Adsense for Content, Adsense for Feed and Adsense for Mobile Content.

The above lists are not limited to free ways to get traffic to ones websites. They are just few of the few ways to do it. In my upcoming series of articles, I will be analyzing all these free traffic sources one by one. So if you do not want to miss all the tutorials on how to get free targeted traffic to your blog/website, then follow us by Email, or subscribe to our blog...kingpages.blogspot.com  to our post updates. That is the update for now. Before you go, say a little ‘Thank You’ by clicking on any of the buttons below (Facebook, Twitter or Google +1)

How to make people click ads on your blog?

Even if you have really big traffic on your site it does not mean that you will get tons of clicks to your ads (google adsense or any other). You may believe me or not but there are a few ways you may increase clicks to your ads without breaking any ad program rules… Some people just put ads anywhere on their site and are waiting for a huge revenue. But it does not work this way. You need to know what are you doing or you will have to learn it from your own mistakes and loose a lot of time.


I. Optimize you ads.
Some time ago google have posted on their blog a nice article about optimal ads placement. Below is picture that was posted on their site:



But you must know that there is no such thing as best place for any ad on any blog! Treat your visitors the way that you want to be treated. If you are too offensive they will close web browser before read any content and of course you will get no clicks to your ads! You have to experiment with multiple ad formats and locations to see what works best with your web site traffic.
There are a few rules you should follow:

1. Make sure that your ads fit subject you write about.
2. Choose a bold color for title of the ad to make it seen by your readers.
3. Remember that too flashy ads are ignored by most users – make them fit your website.
4. Put your ads in places that most readers will stop reading for a while (after some great idea, conclusion). Places they want think or test this what you have written.
5. Choose one of the strategies described below to make your content work for you.

II. Make your content work for you!
There are a few strategies to follow when you are writing content for you blog. Some may sound little funny and some are harder to use but it really works! You may choose other strategy for each of your next three posts and test what makes your visitors clicking most ads.

Strategy No 1 – the hardest one
Make your content so informative and interesting that it would change life of your visitors (or at last give solution to problem they want to resolve). If they love your article so much, most of them will want to say thank you. Some of them will write stupid comments “thanks”, “great article”, “I love you…” etc. that bring nothing interesting to subject of your post and won’t let you earn a buck… But some smarter ones know what the ads are for and would click them for saying: “thanks – great content, you should make living of writing such a great posts!”…

Strategy No 2 – not as hard
Check what interesting people are talking about on social networking websites. Write short interesting articles about it. But don’t put to much information in it! Write only some brief most interesting facts and make people say “Hey… what an interesting subject… but I want to know more…”. Make sure that your ads fit topics you write about. People will click to find more information. In this strategy you can’t put any links to additional resources or people will choose to click it instead of your ads.

Strategy No 3 – probably the easiest one…

Make very interesting titles for your articles. But make content as boring as possible. Make them long and hard to read. Do not format it, do not use lists, paragraphs. Make people scream “Let me out of here!!!”. They will want to leave your site as soon as possible. Unfortunately some of them will close web browser with your site and will want to immediately forget about your article but… some of really bored visitors will click anything they see to leave your site and run away, the farer the better. If you will have some luck they would click your ads and you will get your revenue…

Third one may sound like a joke but I have used to visit a few blogs in my life that are using it! It really made me click the ad to find anything that may be more interesting that visited blog! Let me know what is working best for you and good luck with using it on your blog!

Infolinks and AdSense:

Infolinks InText Ads Complement Google AdSense for Contextual Ad Supremacy.
 It’s no secret that AdSense represents an evolution from the distracting and non-targeted web ads of the past. Using the power of Google, AdSense ensures your site’s ad content “jives” with your site’s overall theme and visitor demographics.

Still, what if you could take things a step further by transforming your site’s content into its own ad platform? That’s exactly what Infolinks has done.  The perfect complement to AdSense, Infolinks uses InText Ads – and transforms your site’s copy into ad copy in a matter of seconds.  Better yet, there is no risk, it takes no space of your site, no commitment, you don’t have to alter your site’s content and your site will become profitable right away.

 According to Infolinks Vice President Tomer Treves, “Infolinks InText ads complete the contextual web ad experience initiated by AdSense. Plus, it only takes a minute to get going and we don’t hold you to any long-term commitments – it couldn’t be simpler.”

The Ins and Outs of InText Ads
Perfected by online advertising powerhouse Infolinks, this cutting-edge contextual ad service is the next step in complete website monetization. InText ads look almost identical to embedded hyperlinks – only there’s one key difference.

When you look at an In-text ad, you’ll notice a double line under a keyword within your site’s overall copy. When users hover their pointer over the word, an ad bubble that relates to the keyword appears. If the users are interested, they click on the ad to go to the advertiser’s site. It couldn’t be simpler!
