An Alternative to Adsense

I was bummed when I saw that Adsense retired their referral program. Since I so often write about working from home and making money online, it was just natural that I would include a referral link to Google's Adsense. Instead of just accepting this fate I decided to look into some other options. After all, not that I don't love Google (Do I? Hmmmm...My search results have been tainted with commercialism lately.) but they are not the only ones who pay you for these sorts of ads. What I discovered was Bidvertiser.

Bidvertiser rocks! Let me tell you why.

First of all they pay you for referrals. And not just pennies which is all I made from referrals with Adsense. If you get an advertiser to sign up you get paid $5 when they spend their first $10. And then another $20 when they spend $50. With publishers as soon as your referral makes $10, you get paid $10 also! (Nice right?). When they earn $50 you get another $40.

Another nice perk- you get paid monthly with only a $10 minimum for payment. Google makes you wait til you make $100. And believe me, when you are first starting out, this can be a long wait! And they'll pay direct to your Paypal account if you like.

You are also able to filter out any unwanted ads on your site. They filter them for you but if you still find an ad you would prefer not to have appearing on your page you can filter it out yourself.

I know Blogger is connected with Google and Adsense but it is just as easy to place these ads in the HTML sections as it is to place the Google's in the Adsense sections. I'm not saying to stop using Adsense by any means. I am using both for now. I like getting two checks anyway- multiple streams, eggs in different baskets, and whatnot.

This is just scratching the surface of Bidvertiser's great features. Check them out!
