DREAM FOR MONEY

As per the latest news from Google Adsense blog, they are now on to retire the refferal program on the last week of august 2008 and it will be replaced by a launch of new Google Affiliate Network. The DoubleClick Performics Affiliate Network will now operate as the Google Affiliate Network for advertisers targeting users located in the United States. This means only those who have US traffic in their blogs / websites will be able to enjoy this network.

Anyways this new Affiliate Network of Google is very much similar to the previous Adsense referal program. This Network will enable publishers to apply for advertiser programs and get paid based on advertiser-defined actions instead of clicks or impressions.

They have also specified that those who are currently using adsense referals programs fo promote them, they should remove the code from thier website as it will not work from the last week of august.

( Below is the announcement directly from their blog. )

“If you currently use referral ads, either to promote Google products or offerings from AdWords advertisers, AdSense Referrals code will no longer display ads beginning the last week of August. We encourage you to take the following steps before the product is retired:

• Remove the referral code from your site(s): Please take a moment to remove all referral code from your sites before the last week of August, so you can continue to effectively monetize your ad space.
  
• Run and save all referrals reports on your desktop: Create and save all reports related to the referrals program on your desktop, so you continue to have access to your valuable campaign information.“

This is what they have announced on their blog. If there will be any changes in the plan we will keep informing you here. For more detailed assistance on this topic you can also visit the Adsense Blog.
