Google Adsense Alternatives part 3

8. Kontera
Kontera is another in-text network you can consider an alternative to Google Adsense. It is comparable in performance with Infolinks but again, this varies a lot depending on the niche. However, if you are to choose between Kontera and Infolinks, I will definitely pick Infolinks.



9. eBay
If Clickbank, Amazon, and a few other of the top CPA networks don't work for you, you could give eBay a try. Again, your success (or the lack of it) with it varies depending on the niche but you can make some money with it. I wouldn'tput eBay ads as my primary source of income because this will waste space I can use for better ads. However, as a secondary or even tertiary advertiser, if you have some free space left, eBay could be given a try.

10 LinkShare
You might be surprised to find LinkShare – a relatively unknown company - on the list of Top Adsense alternatives but it is an alternative for real. It has a huge choice of offers and they pay at $1. Maybe it is even better than the rest on this list because if your site isn't huge, you won't have to wait for months (or even years) till you get the paycheck. Linkshare has offers in almost any niche and there you will find many of the best advertisers from all over the world.
I could add many more companies that are also worth trying. The good news is that there are many more Google AdSense alternatives and the fact that they didn't make the Top 10 doesn't mean they are worse. These 10 are my personal favorites and I can tell from experience that they do work. Well, the fact that they work for me doesn't necessarily mean they will work for everybody else. In fact, under some circumstances the companies that didn't make it to the list could be even better alternatives but you won't know this unless you try them. The world doesn't start or end with Google Adsense, though certainly it is one really good ad program.

4 Infolinks
Infolinks offers in-text advertising. In-text ads are very unobtrusive compared to the rest and they don't eat space because they are displayed as popups when the user hovers over the hyperlink in the text they are anchored to. In-text ads from Infolinks work surprisingly well, though it varies depending on the niche. However, its payout of $50 isn't very nice, if your site(s) are small because you might have to wait for months to reach it.
5. adBrite
Many webmasters consider adBrite to bethe best Google Adsense alternative but since my experience with them isn't as good as my experience with Chitika or Infolinks, it comes as Number 5. adBrite is essentially an ad marketplace, where buyers and sellers can communicate to negotiate the price. This is what makes itdifferent from the rest. However, you need to have a very popular site with a very lucrative demographics in order to make it there because the competition isreally huge.

6. Clickbank
If you do not insist on using CPC ads as a Google Adsense alternative but are opento suggestions, then you should try affiliate sales (known also as CPA – CostPer Action). Clickbank is the Mecca of CPA offers and it should be your first stop. Clickbank offers probably millions of products and choosing what to promote could be the hardest task. However, the rewards you get could be times what you are making with Adsenseon a good day.

7. Amazon.com
Amazon.com is another CPA ad network that works well for many publishers. It is especially good if you have a tech site because there are lots of cool gadgets there but since they have offers in almost any niche, it is also an option. Their ads are context sensitive and because of this are almost always relevant. However, their terms are very complicated and it will take you a lot of time to get familiar with what commissions you will be getting for your sales.

Google Adsense Alternatives part 1

If you are frustrated with your Adsense revenue, or if your Adsense account has been banned, this isn't the end of the world. Adsense might be the Mercedes of ad networks but from the thousands of ad networks out there there must be many other alternatives to monetize your site . Indeed, there are and in some cases they will work much better for you. Of course, the result depends on many factors, such as your niche, how much traffic you have and where it comes from, etc. but all equal any of these Adsense alternatives can bring you real money. Here are 10 Google Adsense alternatives to consider:
1. Media.net
Probably of all the ad networks on the list, this is the least known but it is also the best. They offer very innovative solutions, such as content ads, search targeting, web bar, and mobile ads. Media.netis especially good for huge sites with lots of US, UK, and Canada traffic. One of the downsides of Media.netis that the payment is at $100 but for a huge site this should be pocket money.


2. Chitika
Chitika doesn't offer that many types of ads but its main advantage is that the ads it offers are very targeted. The CTR is great because the ads are displayed only when a user comes from a search engine. Its low $10 payout is also good because even if your site is small, or you use only one ad block, most likely you will be getting payments monthly instead of having to wait for them for months.

3. Bidvertiser
Bidvertiser is another (mainly) PPC network, though they started offering a conversion bonus. Its payout is also at$10, which means for a small site it is also an option.

9. Minimize Duplicate Template Content :
Duplicate content applies not only to posts but to everything on a page. If you are using the same template for all your pages, chances are you have lots of duplicate template content – i.e. the same blocks of text (and links) you reuse on each page. Inspect these blocksthat repeat on every page and keep onlythe most important ones.
10. Too Many Outbound Links with Keywords :
Too many outbound links are bad but when they are with keywords as anchor text, this is even worse. The assumption is that these links are the result of a link exchange – i.e. they aren't natural. This can be a huge problem if you accept guest posts because authors typically include keywords in their links and their byline. Try to keep the anchor text of your outbound links diverse and limit keyword stuffed anchors as much as youcan.
11. Poor Internal Linking Structure :
Humans and bots like a clean navigation structure. Now with Panda this gains even more weight. Therefore, check your internal links and streamline your navigation – this will help for sure.
The Panda update caused quite a lot of stir. For the sites that were hit the changes were everything but welcome but since there is so much search spam, it was bound to happen. If you don't wantto be on the receiving end, clean your site and make it Panda-compliant. This is the only way (back) to top search results.


THIS IS INFO TO GOOGLE PANDA.

6. Panda Likes New Content:
News and recent stuff have always beenloved by search engines but with Panda this is even more important. This includes news but also recently updated pages. In fact, about 35% of searches will be affected because preference will be given to current pages. Well, this is hardly a reason to turn your site into a news machine but if you try to update your content as frequently as you can, this will help.
7. No Scraped Content:
With Panda, scraped content is (almost) as bad as duplicate content. If you are using spun articles, this can seriously hurt you. While with article sites you have more freedom in rewording your content, with descriptions on shopping sites it is trickier because if you have to stay factual, there aren't unlimited waysto reword a short 100-200 word description. Still, try to make your descriptions as original as possible.
8 Be Careful with Affiliate Links and Ads :
Tons of outbound links is bad but tons of affiliate links on a page is even worse - too many of them on a page and you willbe Pandalized. This is why you need to cut the number of affiliate links on a page. For a better effect, you can also make them nofollow, if possible. The number of ads on a page also plays role with Panda and the rule is: the fewer, the better. Keep only the highest profitable ads (i.e. the ones that are really making you money and let the rest go.

2 Duplicate Anchor Text and Links from Article Directories/Low Quality Sites:
Backlinks are very important but as you know it is quality backlinks that matter. This is why Panda penalized sites with tons of backlinks from article directoriesor other content sites because these sites are deemed low quality. Additionally, when the anchor text of your backlinks is always the same (and it has a keyword in it), this is more than suspicious that this link hasn't been created naturally. This is why it is best if you use multiple variations of your keywords (or even better – multiple keywords) as the anchor text of backlinks. For instance, if your keyword is “how to get an ex back”, you can also use “how to reunite with ex”, “how to reconcile with an ex lover”, etc.
3 Clean Your WHOLE Site:
Panda is a site-wide penalty and as a result, even if you have some really outstanding pages but you also have lotsof so-so ones, your whole site will suffer. The only solution here is to fix or remove the low quality ones and wait for the crawlers to come.
4. Get Rid of Autogenerated Content and Roundup/ComparisonType of Pages:
Autogenerated pages have nothing to dowith quality and this is why they are especially unpopular now. Roundups/comparison types of pages can also hurt you because these don't have much original content in them. These factors are the reason why so many shopping sites where these comparison pages are so numerous are hit by Panda. If you run a shopping site, your task isn't easy because you can't get rid of these completely but if you add original content to them, this increases your chances to get your rankings back.
5 No Pages with 1-2 Paragraphs of Text Only :
Since these pages are easier to create, many webmasters started populating their sites with such short pages in order to increase the number of pages of the site. Now the rules have changed and these pages with 1-2 paragraphs of text can damage your rankings. Add more text or remove the pages – these are the two options you have.

Panda isn't just another update to the search algorithm, many of which we have seen over the years. One of the special things about Panda is that it useshuman reviewers to rate sites. No, not all sites are rated by humans but there isa sample of sites where human reviewers make the evaluation and aftera pattern in reviewing is noticed, the job is continued by machines, which presumably use the same criteria as humans. So, if you have made the mistake to optimize your site only for bots, now you will be hit right between the eyes.
Panda is aimed at improving the quality of search results by removing low quality, spammy entries from the first positions. The first victims were the so called content mills but the later updates hit many other types of sites as well. What these sites had in common was that they had tons of useless content that was artificially pushed to the top results pages. Many sites who are (or considered themselves) no content mills were hit pretty hard because they exhibited similarities to content farms and if you don't want to be the next victim, or if you have alreadybeen hit yourself and wonder how to get back on your feet, here are some tips to help you.
How to Counteract Panda?

1 No Multiple Pages with the Same Keyword:

The reason why content mills were slapped the hardest by Panda is that they had many (in some cases in the thousands!) pages with the same keyword. When you have multiple authors and you give them the freedom to choose what to write about, you will obviously end with multiple pages that use the same lucrative keywords. But it isn't only the content mills where you can find 100s of pages with the “how to get an ex back”, 1,000s about “acai berry”, etc. If your site has multiple pages that target the same keyword, getrid of them immediately because this is simply drowning you.
