Hi Nairalanders

I hear a lot about AdSense website issues here on Nairaland as if AdSense are the only way many perceive they can make money online with their websites. But I have a list of reasons AdSense are not the best way to get paid from your virtual real estate.

1) Clicking on your affiliate links won't get you banned like it does with Google AdSense

2) Many people find getting their site visitors to click on AdSense links is a little tricky at best

3) Affiliate programs will not make its marketers jump through hoops just to get approved unlike Google AdSense

4) You only get paid from the efforts you put into your Adsense website, where as a lot of affiliate marketing programs have a multi tier program which means you can get paid from the efforts of your down line team down several levels which is where wealth is created

5) Many affiliate marketing programs have a multitude of ways they can pay you, after all its in their interest that their independent marketers receive their money or they won't get their products promoted

6) Reputable Affiliate marketing companies offer their marketers as many ways and tools too promote their products and services as possible that have proven track records for creating income for their marketers

7) AdSense will not give you robust training to promote AdSense websites,

8 ) Google AdSense cannot help you create robust residual income

9) AdSense are seen by many as tacky looking making the website look cheap and needy (sorry Google)

10) Depending on the affiliate product you are promoting, one sale can fetch you hundreds of dollars where as with AdSense its just a few cents

11) You don't actually need to have a website to do affiliate marketing (although it does help) - but if you do need one your affiliate company can give you website gateways for free

12) Most reputable affiliate programs have robust support if you need assistance - have you ever tried to get Google on phone?

13) The affiliate and multi level marketing industry have created more millionaires in this world than any other industry to date - how much is your AdSense website paying you??



Sincerely

Ben Ajose


oya, list some reputable affiliate programs.

Some Advantages of Affiliate Marketing:



1) For the online companies, with affiliate program set up, they can reach their product to much larger market cost effectively. The merchants can get more and more potential buyers without having to increase their marketing budget.

2) Besides lowering marketing cost, they merchant reduces their marketing effort but still get steady amount of targeted visitors to their sale page. The affiliates will do the marketing works to generate targeted traffic for the merchant website. So the merchant doesn’t have to worry about traffic.

3) For the affiliates, they can quickly start a business on the Internet. They don’t need to create their own product as the merchant have a range of products ready for the them to market online.

4) The start-up cost for the affiliate become very low; making everyone can afford to become an affiliate. Even generating traffic, there are plenty of free methods where the affiliates can use to market the merchant products. Knowledge and effort are most important for a successful affiliate marketing business.

5) Another benefit that the affiliates will enjoy is that they just need to promote the product to the potential buyers. The rest is handled by the merchant. Customer service, billing, shipping and packaging, return and refund are all the responsibility of the merchant. What the affiliates need to do focus is drive as much targeted traffic as possible to the merchant’s website and earn affiliate commission whenever they refer a sale to the merchant.

Adsense is better...easier to do, and more realistic. Name me one person that has made substantial money via affiliate marketing. And please don't tell me about one American or philipino...name a Nigerian.


Akin Alabi, the founder of nairabet.

The founder of complete sport, Sunny can't remember his last name.

Haha! No one knows Akin Alabi like me. The days he was making money from Affiliate marketing was back in the late 2000s...He is nolonger into that now. And the owner of Success Digest and Complete Sports, Mr. Sunny Obazu-Ojeagbase is nolonger into that too. Do your research. Most of the people that were making noise about Affiliate Marketing in the past were people making money off of teaching people how to make money from it...They weren't really making a killing from it like what they would have you believe.

You don't have to be an authority but you do need to be someone your potential customers can trust and you do need to know about the product you are promoting, you don't need great popularity for that. People all over the world are making a living from affiliate marketing. Its one of the fastest growing industries. companies want to promote their products this is a cost effective way of doing it

But like I have mentioned before you need a format that works

Get products that inspires you - a product that is so good that even if you were not going to get paid you would still promote it anyway
Make sure it have at least a 4 out of 5 star rating
Find a platform where people who have an interest for that product hang out , add value to the discussions

Not rocket science any body can do that you don't need to be thee greatest towering authority to make a living from affiliate marking. You just need a proven format that works and someone to show you how.

Affiliate marketing is sure a good way of earning residual income online, but the challenge is that its not always easy getting people to buy or order things via your affiliate links except you are an authority and kind of popular in your niche...or you fake your profile to appear like an European or American because most foreigners who are the major people that patronise most affiliate marketing products will hardly patronise your link if they discover that you are a Nigerian.

But for adsense, whether you are an authority or not, you will make money via google adsense so long as your website or blog is getting enough traffic, but you can have millions of traffic to your website/blog without getting a single sale via your affiliate marketing links.

Affiliate marketing is good but not for new bloggers or will I say Nigerian bloggers who want to keep their Nigerian identity and integrity.

Very true

dakkylove:
Google adsense is actually the biggest and best but the issue is they are very strict and can disconnect your account for the slightest of reasons.

Affiliate Marketing is not bad, i am getting my feet wet with it to see how much i can make, but at the end of the day blogging is about passion and doing what you love, if money is the only reason you blog then i don't know how long you can cope with it.
Re: 13 Reasons Why Affiliate Marketing Is Better Than Google Adsense by Ben1975(m): 4:25pm On Jul 24, 2015
That is because you need a process that works and someone to show you step by step - most programs here in Nigeria wont invest that kind of time on their marketers which is a shame

Another is most people are not inspired enough to work towards their financial future they just live for today and forget tomorrow

Hahaha!!!!!!! You truly were into it back then for real. Paul was the youngest out of all the Internet Marketers selling on Success Digest platform, and he had this Monday offer where if you bought his book with a timeframe you get to pay N1,500 instead of N3,000, or something like that. Then Hafiz Lecker...Kai!!! That guy chop money ehn!!! I always wonder where all those people are now.

Most of them, especially Hafiz Lecky are on the run with people's money.... I so much desire to be independent at that time and I easily fell for their trick.... Oooh I didn't mention Henry Omenog, his paypal and survey scam books...

Whenever I see that Sucess Digest Extra, I hissed at it....

The truth is, Affiliate Marketing Can work for
you if you understand how it works and
you make it work for you.

Same with adsense.

the truth about using any model or system
to make money whether online or offline
is to get the required knowledge, get the
foundational basics of how the business
really works.

then you move right into action to implement
what you have learned.

the results might not be coming as expected
at first, but never worry. Persistence,
consistency, creativity and the ability
to think things through will bring about
the results.

thanks.
