Tips For Google AdSense Affiliate Marketing

You can make a lot of use of the traffic that is coming to your site thanks to SEO and PPC efforts through affiliate marketing; and make a lot of money at the same time. If you are using Google Adsense, what this means is that any time someone clicks on any of the ads that Google has put on your site, you are earning a commission. Depending on the click that is going to Google, this can be anywhere from pennies to dollars that you are earning at any one time; either way, it isn’t going to be a whole lot. On the other hand, if they are paying you more in commission for the click than you paid to get it, you are going to be making money.

With Google AdSense promotions, its all about paying less than what the clicks youre delivering is paying you. There are ways to find long-tail search terms, pay at a low cost-per-click, to get traffic to your site. Say you are promoting a high-dollar click on your website like DUI Attorney. That click on Google costs around $30+ per click, so the commission you will earn from AdSense will be much higher than a click that would cost $3 per click.

Now let’s suppose that you manage to find something like ‘DUI Attorney Pasadena, CA’ as a long-tail keyword search that is inexpensive. You are going to bid for a low position on this, say maybe .30 a click, and hope to get these low-cost clicks and more traffic to your website.

You also need to make sure that your site offers things relating to this click, like articles on DUI or traffic laws in Pasadena or anything of this nature, which will not only make people come to your site but be willing to click on the Adsense ad you are running, from which you are making $1 per click. You have to agree that this doesn’t sound like that bad of a deal; however, if nobody is clicking on your ads, then you are going to be losing the money you have invested — this really is a risky business. Not everyone has what it takes to make money through buying low cost clicks and then running them on their own websites. You are going to have to be willing to invest not only money, but the time and effort necessary to figure out exactly what is going to work the best to make a profit.

OR, you can invest that time in a wiser fashion by focusing on SEO as a source for those long-tail search keywords. You can do the same amount of work, get words that are less competitive, and if your page is correctly optimized, you will be better off in the long run. No matter your CTR, you are going to end up having to invest less of your capital in the venture. Your time is going to be the biggest investment you will have to make. Once you have invested the necessary time, whether you end up making a lot of money in this venture or only a little, it is not going to cost you anything out of your own wallet.
