Combining adsense with clickbank

Hi guys,

I'm new to this topic, so I'll just do what I found extremely effective so far: ask every (possibly stupid) question that I have about this .

So, I'm planning to create a micro niche site where I want to make money with Adsense. BUT I also want to promote Clickbank products.

Is it wise to combine the two or would you suggest that I do either one, but not both?

Thanks
Ivan

    Personally i would stay away from that. Build sites for a specific purpose.

    1 site for clickbank.
    1 site for adsense.

    Earnings will be higher this way, you don't want someone clicking an adsense ad that could have potentially been an affiliate sale etc..

    2 separate business models... choose 1 and give it everything you've got. I recommend Adsense, Clickbank is saturated at the moment.

    Personally I have never been successful on the Clickbank front especially when placing along AdSense. I think it is better to have a different site or blog for Clickbank affiliates. I prefer the adsense way of making money online as it is easier to get visitors than getting a customer to buy Clickbank products.

      Personally I've had success integrating both adsense and clickbank on one site. You won't know unless you test it, and can vary from niche to niche. Remember, you want to look at your EPC whether it's clickbank or adsense. If you find your EPC is much higher with clickbank, then go with that. But if you find that their relatively equal, it might be worth keeping both, as not everyone will necessarily want to buy anything anyway. I've found presenting both options to visitors has kept my income very stable with both. But that's just my situation. I'd encourage you to test things for yourself.

      And what I particularly like with adsense is that you don't have to deal with refunds. Sometimes you make a good amount of sales with clickbank and then a week or two later, you give it back. But then again, with clickbank you get paid weekly which is nice.
