Is adsense arbitrage possible using Facebook Ads?

4 replies
Hi all, I'm a big fan of using quizzes and polls to build sales funnels.

Is it possible to advertise a quiz using Facebook Ads and monetize my quiz site with Google Adsense? I would like to make money through arbitrage.

I want to send Facebook users to my quiz and have Adsense ads on my site.

The problem is that, from my experience, Facebook ads are expensive. I've never got 3 cent clicks like I have with mobile ads (eg Propeller Ads).

Can you please help?

Thanks

    I think this is a bad idea. If your whole intent is to share a quiz site, then fine. but it sounds like you're trying to make a profit by encouraging users to go to your site through a quiz site and then get paid with those users clicking on your Google AdSense ads.

    People make money with Google AdSense using evergreen websites. They build a business(es) online and then grow them. Once you have an established website then you can share it via paid methods like Facebook ads, Google ads, Bing ads, etc. Don't get me wrong, you can put together a bunch of Blackhat websites in certain niches and use ethical black hat tactics to distribute your website around the internet for Google Adsense income but I dont think paid Facebook Ads are the way to go.

    It just sounds like your duping people into clicking on your site when in their mind they think they are clicking on a website the owners and creators of the quiz care about which it seems like you do not.

    Why not create a business online that you care about? You must be interested in something or want to gain knowledge within an area. People will share the same passion and visit your website and then eventually click on your ads. It just takes a while to build your business up to that point.

      Thank you for the response. Can Facebook tell what ads are being displayed on my site? Let's say there's a Adsense ad on my site about making money online. Facebook doesn't like this niche. It's not allowed on Facebook Ads.



      If Facebook does a landing page review of my site during the ad approval process and sees a MMO ad on my site, will I get banned from Facebook? Technically it's not my content.


      Thanks

    If your site content is NOT 'MMO' - how would the google adsense be MMO and work? First thing I'd check is whether a site or landing page with a quick or other 'clickbait' content is permitted for adsense.

    As for FB - no one here can tell you what FB might do. Read the terms and conditions carefully and stay well within the lines. The most common mistake I see when it comes to TOS of various services is a marketer who says 'it's not really but it looks like it'....if what you are doing LOOKS LIKE it violates TOS, don't do it.

    With google and Facebook, etc - trying to get 'close to the line' doesn't work because they can move the line any time they want. The small amount you might make from adsense would not be worth losing your FB acct (in my opinion) so be stickler about TOS.
