The True Adsense alternative

24 replies
So many people have recently had their adsense account terminated for no specific reason (Google is never transparent), a friend of mine recently lost his adsense account also (WITH A TON OF MONEY IN IT). So this question is for you guys who make decent money with other ad networks: Which is the True Adsense alternative? in terms of earnings (CPC and CPM), which ad networks really pay as good or nearly as good as Adsense but do not play with their publishers like adsense does?

Any recommendations from top earners are welcome.

    I prefer Qadabra.com. They pay on time and there are many payment options including Paypal and Payoneer. No requirement to get approved. Hope you'll love also.

      I have a partner who worked with them a couple months ago and actually showed me an earnings report, they pay 0.003 for each click (usa traffic), how is that even closely compared to adsense?

    What about Bing Ads? I have no experience with them, but I think you can implement their ads just the same as you would implement AdSense.

      I use Media.net(Bing & Yahoo Network) extensively across my sites having lost my Adsense account a few years ago. I find that Media.net ad units are much better than the old Adsense units, they are more targeted, they pay comparatively to Adsense AND you get a REAL LIVE ACCOUNT MANAGER!.

      The only downside is that they only offer per 1,000 impression payments rather than per click and you have to get approval for EVERY SITE you want to add them onto.

          There is no set rate, every niche is different, everyday income is different....like all networks, the better the traffic, the higher the income potential.

        Take a look at the website. There are videos and registration is free and instant. Simply give it a try and you will see the definite difference. Weekly payouts for over $1,000 in earnings which is not hard to do if you have traffic flowing to your properties. Crap traffic and clicks will get you filtered out but not banned. There is a real person to help you and everything is transparent plus you get paid for more than just clicks, you get paid for any conversions you bring also.

    If you won't follow Google Adsense TOS, you sure are going to get banned - they have become very strict over the years. I make a good living with adsense ($2000 a month and growing) and never had any issues with them.

    Some people think that higher CTR can result in a ban, which is not true. I have over 8% CTR on most of my niches sites.

    So IMHO, there is no alternative to adsense...

    A good alternative to AdSense is Chitika and Superlinks. Infolinks is also there but the earning is too low. Chitika and Superlinks are better when it comes to payouts from my personal experience.

    Chitika is good for sites with US / Canada traffic , Otherwise its wont work well .

    I have tried A LOT of adsense alternatives and not a single one of them has come close to paying me what adsense pays me. If you want to place ads on your site and don't want to do it through adsense, your best option is to go out and find people who want to place advertisement on your site instead of doing it through an ad network.

    Bing is the absolute closest. It is better off you got banned from adsense now, eventually they will ban everyone regardless.

    Media.net is the best, but it doesn't earn as much as Adsense (at least for me). That said I put Adsense ads in the best spots and have never swapped those spots with Media.net... Because I'm certain it would come close to earning what Adsense earns.

    That said, if you have plenty of traffic Media.met can bring in good revenue consistently.

    When it comes to publishing ads on your website for any ppc network the focus is always quality and quality translates to performance in the form of conversions. If your purpose is simply to earn from clicks alone without there being any or little focus on quality, do not expect to earn well for long or at all. Do not be surprised if you lose your account "mysteriously". There is no mystery to it. People pay for ads because they are looking for performance and conversions, not just traffic. They want targeted traffic because that is where the performance is and your earnings as well as the longevity or status of your account depends on this. I'm speaking from experience and knowledge being as I own a ppc traffic network. As a publisher, your focus should be on generating targeted traffic to your web property. Nobody wants crappy traffic....the networks or the advertisers. So, again, if your focus is on earning easy money with little or no work...or even worse, attempting to arbitrage with crap traffic, you should rethink what you are doing, why you are doing it, assess yourself and your intent and then determine whether or not publishing for a ppc traffic network is for you. There are a lot of people looking for easy money and never find it because it does not exist. Though there may be some people that disagree with what I have stated here, it's all based on fact and is therefore reality. Focus more on the reality of making money online instead of the dream of easy money and your actions will yield the natural results that you want.

    A lot of people will say that one network is better than others but unless you have tried them all by delivering targeted traffic to your ad spaces, you can't say which one is the best and not everybody will get the same or similar results because not all publishers are using the same websites.

    Nothing can replace adsense, They are really worth, Don't lay all the earnings with the single account, Just split it in different bags

    you can use media.net its cpc was higer than google adsense but you must have good traffic else they not approve you. and google not banned any adsense if they dont found your illegal activity.
    if you are using google adsense then you will dont login other pc they track your ip and cookies so you must login what you are using system. dont open in other pc other browser .
    i m sure they will not banned you if you follow this rule.
    and not click on ad. on your pc and don't say to other click on ad. because they found you
