If you are running a webpage of any size for your online business, then you are probably at least a little familiar with Google’s monetizing program, Adsense. Many people do not realize, however, that you can use affiliate links and links to your own product along with Adsense. This allows you to generate recurring revenue from many sources.
Statistics show that 95% of people who get into affiliate marketing don’t make much money or they quit within a very short time. Most likely, this is because affiliate marketing is difficult to make money with, especially compared to using Adsense, which is much simpler.

Here are four benefits of using Adsense on your website:

1. It is completely free to join; there are no membership fees or commissions of any kind.
2. You save a lot of time and effort. Instead of tracking down advertisers and promoting their products individually, Adsense does the work for you.
3. Google matches the ads to your content from a pool of over 100,00 different advertisers. This ensures that the ads are useful and relevant to your visitors.
4. Its easy! All you have to do is cut and paste some code that Google provides into your website, then the ads are automatically generated. Even if you own more than one website, you only need to use one Adsense account for all of them.

Using Adsense and Affiliate Links On Your Website

You can use both Adsense and affiliate links on your website, as long as your affiliate links don’t look like Google Adsense ads. This offers an alternative choice for your visitors, and allows you to make money from other sources in addition to Adsense.
