What about Google Adsense?

Google Adsense is actually an affiliate marketing program!

With Google Adsense, Google act as the intermediary between the affiliate and the merchant.

The merchant, or the advertiser, simply signs up with Google and provides them with text ads pertaining to their products.

These ads, which actually link to the advertiser’s website, will then appear on Google searches as well as on the websites owned by the affiliate, or by those website owners who have signed up with the Google Adsense program.

While you can find a lot of similarities between Google Adsense and other affiliate marketing programs, there are quite a few differences.

With Google Adsense, all you have to do as the website owner is place some code on your website and Google takes care of the rest!

It almost sounds too good to be true I hear you say...WELL IT IS TRUE!

The ads that Google place on your site will generally be relevant to the content of your site.

This is advantageous for you and for the advertiser, as the visitors to your site will be more than likely be interested in purchasing the products being advertised.

In other words, Google are doing all the work in matching traffic to your site with an ad they think will attract a buyer!

Win win for everybody!
