Tips For Google AdSense Affiliate Marketing
June 7th, 2010 | Posted in SEO.Affiliate Marketing can be a great way to build wealth and capitalize on the traffic you are pushing to your site from PPC and SEO efforts. Basically you are letting Google put ads on your site via AdSense, and every time someone clicks on one of those ads, you get a commission. It isn’t much, can be pennies at a time, or sometimes dollars at a time (depending on the cost of click you’re sending to Google). But bottom line – as long as it costs you less to acquire those clicks than the commission you’re receiving, it will make you money.
Remember, you want to pay less for the click than Google Adsense is going to be paying you for it. You have to find ways to get traffic on your site that will be willing to use long-tail search terms that you have paid very little for. For example, let’s say that your site is promoting DUI Attorney, or some click that is equally high-dollar. Since that runs about $30 for each click on Google, your commission from AdSense is going to be much higher than if you were advertising for something which only cost $5 a click.
So, you’ve discovered a low-cost long-tail search term keyword, such as ‘DUI Attorney Pasadena CA’. When you place a bid for a position that is lower, for example 25 cents for each click, you have hopes that these less expensive clicks will draw an audience 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.
If you are going to put that much time into this effort, why not focus it on SEO for those same long-tail keywords? If you optimize your page right, you can still do the same work for less competitive words, and come up organically. Then it doesn’t matter as much what your CTR is, and will cost you a lot less $$. The only thing you are spending is your time. Once that initial time investment is over, then it cannot cost you any money out of your pocket – Whether it works or not!
