Alternate to Adsense

[RKSQ]

Appreciate some advice here. Has anyone try Infolinks which is a in text advertising on their websites or blogs?

I understand that you can place the ads from Infolinks without affecting the Adsense ads. Are they paying as good as adsense in terms of clicks on their ads?

Thank you.

Nothing comes anywhere near to competing with google adsense, that's the truth. Your better off looking into other methods of income, if adsense isn't a option for you.

[rypher21]

comparing infolinks to what adsense can??

mmm..adsense is far better

[JustinDupre]

I agree, I'd still go with Adsense.

[leighla]

Are you got banned from Adsense? If yes, then you can try bidvertiser or infolinks or adbrite... But they pay too low.. Adsense is the best till now and their no alternates which pays good compare to Adsense.

Chitika is an alternate to AdSense. I don't have personal experience but others I know have.

[williamkmohr]

Adsense is my best choice becase pay is more and no problem where is site targeting , i have heard chitika will shows ads when site gets a visitor form US but i am not sure about chitika

If you Google for alternatives to AdSense you will find quite a few, but I've yet to find another as good.

It seems from the answers that I have read so far is that nothing beats Adsense in terms of monetization of sites.

I am wondering whether it would be better to optimize the income of a website or blog, with Adsense and Infolinks ads placed together in the same page. Will putting these 2 ads together result in less clicks for Adsense ads? Has anyone try this before?

Thank you.

It is against Adsense TOS. Here is an extract from their TOS:

"Competitive Ads and Services

In order to prevent user confusion, publishers may not display Google ads or search boxes on websites that also contain other ads or services formatted to use the same layout and colours as the Google ads or search boxes on that site. Although you may sell ads directly on your site, it is your responsibility to ensure that these ads cannot be confused with Google ads. "

Apologies if this is a little off-topic, but I heard about this on IMS podcast the other day.. Has anyone tried the new affiliate linking system called skimlinks?

[socialbookmark]

As i know using any other advertising network is not allowed when you are using Google Adsense, but i have seen some websites which are using both Adsense and Infolinks on a domain and i don't know if they are being banned by Google.

I'm not a lawyer but that is not saying you can't use infolinks where adsense exists. It is saying you cannot use the same format or search boxes. Infolinks is completely different from Adsense. You would not want to use Chitika or other similar programs in conjunction with Adsense but millions of sites combine Adsense with infolinks. That is actually the best combo I have found, personally.

I am also interested in skimlinks if any one has any experience.

BidVertiser it's a Crap for Advertisers (high CPC on almost every category), that's why i think it could be good for publisher (more $ per click).

[clickforseo]

So, which is best chitika or bidvertiser - based on being an adsense alternative and attracting better income (high CPC costs)?

[freeair]

you can only get a good income in infolinks if you have a lot of traffic...
and i agree with them, Adsense is far better... Another alternative is through using affiliate.

[windfinder]

Kontera makes links out of key words in your content. Depending on your site they might work as well as Adsense.

[trimchic]

Adsense is far better. Was making 0.08$ per click with adsense. now making 0.02 with infolinks. Please stick with adsense
