Adsense vs affiliate programs vs clickbank

 

 

People always ask what is better for sites to make more money: adsense, affiliate programs, or clickbank?

Well the answer is: why stops you from using both (adsense and clickbank/regular affiliate programs). There is always better to monetize your traffic using more methods.

According to online survey, adsense is the best, they pay good if you have good CTR,  Lets say you get a better return on adsense, i would then say focus 80% of your ads using adsense and continue to experiment with the remainder 20% - as you never know when affiliate marketing may be better than adsense. sometimes you can see trends for example Travel, affiliate marketing may be better Jan to April but after this adsense may be better.

The last tip is that if you wanna make money with adsense, your site content should be updated frequently. If you make money with clickbank and other affiliate programs, you should write a landing page, and then promote the landing page.

In summary, you can make split tests and see which one performs better, check your data regularly and wherever you are making a better ROI.
