Now let’s have a look at Top 12 Best Google Adsense Alternatives for making money online.
1.Affiliate Marketing
For me Affiliate Marketing works best, so that is the main reason why I have put affiliate marketing at number one position in “AdSense Alternatives list”.
In affiliate Marketing, you just need to promote vendor(say XYZ) product or service and when someone (say Mr. A) makes a purchase using your affiliate id, then your vendor will pay you commission. Commission amount depends upon what type of product you are promoting. For instance, commission for Premium WordPress Plugins will be less than Web hosting and WordPress Themes.

Sharesale, Commission Junction, Amazon Associates and ClickBank are some of the best well-known Affiliate Network. So, now what are you waiting for ? Join any of the above mentioned affiliate network and make money from Affiliate Marketing.
2.Direct Advertising
Direct Advertising is yet another popular Google AdSense alternative. Basically in this advertising method, companies directly contact you or you contact them for their product reviews, sponsorship or advertising. As there is a direct contact between you and advertiser, so you don’t have to give any commission to third-party such as Google AdSense, Media.net and BuySellAds.
Furthermore, you can set your own terms and conditions and also have full control on your ads. Typically it is seen that blogs which gets direct advertisers constantly are seen as authority in the niche and also build long-term relationships with advertisers.
Now, before you approach advertisers directly make sure that you have good traffic, contact us and dedicated advertising page on your blog.
Your advertisement page should have the following information:
- Why they should advertise on your blog?
- Available Ad slots with price details and mode of payment
- Google analytics page views and unique visitor’s p/m.
