10 Best Google Adsense Alternatives 2018 Edition
“Your Google Adsense account has been disabled or temporarily banned”.
What a nice phrase on an email to start the day huh? Well, consider
you’re not alone. Everyday, hundreds or thousands of accounts are being
banned from Google’s Adsense program. Why? I can’t tell you
specifically. Either there’s something wrong with the web you’re putting
you ads on, or you just simply missed one rule from Google’s TOS.
Instead of crying or bashing Google in multiple forums (actually,
this is a very bad idea), remember the world is not over yet, and there
are plenty of alternatives out there to try. Google was just your first
one, and you failed.
So, stand up, be proactive and act professional! There’s no time to lose.

Note: I am continually updating this list with all the new monetization methods that I use as an AdSense alternative. So bookmark this page and keep coming back to learn about more new blog monetization programs.
10. Yllix Media
Yllix is a network I have heard a lot in the last years that has a
decent CPM and many monetization options. Their homepage might look
simple but their dashboard is great and it’s easy to get started. Yllix
has Pop under ads, mobile redirects, sliders, layer ads and full page
ads so you can get a good CTR and make money with them. Definitely a
good option for starters and their approval is fast. Sign up here.
9. Revenue Hits
Revenue Hits is a very strong network with several years in the
industry. I’ve been working with them for 2 years and so far the results
have been great. Revenue Hits is a Performance Ad network, which means
they pay you for results (CPA, which is great for many niches). Revenue
Hits has an advanced platform that learns from your Ads so if you give
them a try make sure to keep their ads running for at least 3-4 days to
get the best results. Another great thing is that they have different
monetization channels available. You can create banner ads, sliders, pop
-unders, buttons and more. Revenue Hits pays on a NET 30 basis and they
issue payments via wire, Paypal and Payoneer! Create your account and
get started in just a few minutes HERE!
8. Taboola
Taboola ads
are native advertising ads. These ads link to popular and enticing
content. You’ve likely seen them on other websites… they’re the ads
that follow “From the Web” or some similar phrase.
Taboola is an ad network I don’t use much. It’s one I haven’t had a
great deal of success with. However, I’m including Taboola because I
have publisher colleagues who generate a great deal of revenue with
them.
For some reason Taboola ads don’t work all that great in my niche.
But they do perform well in many niches, so I suggest you give them a
shot. These ads have a relatively high CTR and with a lot of traffic,
can generate some great revenue.
Typically these ads are placed in sidebars and below content. You
should also definitely test some in-content placement as well.
FYI, Taboola isn’t the only native ad network. There are many of
them. Too many to list. Outbrain is another popular native ad network,
but you need millions of monthly page views in order to place
Outbrain’s ads on your site. Taboola doesn’t have such a high
threshold.
7. Vibrant Media
I used Vibrant Media’s in-text
ads for several months. I earned $7 to $10 per day. It wasn’t much.
I don’t use them any more; however, I’m including them in this list
because I think they’re worth trying.
The reason they didn’t do well for me is because my B2C sites are
image-rich. The text is much less important. Since Vibrant Media’s
in-text offering is focused on in-text links, I’m not surprised they
didn’t do well for me.
If your site is rich with text-based information and you get 500,000 monthly page views, I suggest testing Vibrant Media.
6. RevContent
RevContent is in my view the most progressive native ad network. They have some amazing ad options, especially for mobile.
I tested them quite a bit. I love them, but unfortunately they weren’t a great fit for my niche.
That said, I think every site that uses ads to monetize should try
RevContent because if it is a good fit, they can make you a ton of
money. I’ve seen revenue from colleagues and it’s very, very high. The
revenue CPC can be excellent in certain niches.
5 . Chitika
The reason I put Chitika on the number 3 of this list, is because
Chitika is very similar to Adsense. they allow you to customize your
ads, and it only serves contextual ads. One good thing is that you can
use it along with Adsense and there are no problems at all. Chitika pays
via Paypal ($10 USD minimum, which is good for starters) or via check
($50 minimum). If I were to recommend an ads service as an alternative
to Adsense, Chitika would be my first choice, hands down. Chitika can pay you via paypal if you need. Sign up here and get your account approved fast and easily!
4. Infolinks
Infolinks is
one of the largest monetization networks in the world today, helping
more than 200,000 online publishers in 128 countries earn money from
their unused ad space. Their FREE to use native ads work perfectly with
all ad solutions and don’t interfere with the user’s experience! From
effective contextual and video ads, to engaging display banners
– Infolinks’ highly customizable products will guarantee you make the
most out of your traffic.
Their platform is very simple to integrate into your site, and is
open to any publisher, big or small, with no setup fees, no minimum
requirements for page views or visitors and no hidden commitments.
Infolinks advertisers are selected based on quality, that’s why
they work with worldwide leading brands such as: Facebook, Amazon, Ebay,
Ali Express, Pizza Hut, TripAdvisor, Hyundai and many more. Start using Infolinks here.
3. GumGum
Specifically, I use GumGum image overlay ads. These are ads that display banners at the bottom of images.
My B2C niche sites are image-rich, so GumGum is a perfect ad network to add to the site.
You can choose how aggressive the ads display such as 10% of images,
20% of images and so on. I go with 12% to 15%. I don’t want every
image to have an ad on them.
The one issue with GumGum is you need to have a minimum of 500,000
monthly page views in order to have an account. If you get this traffic
volume and have images on your site, I recommend you give them a shot.
2. Criteo
Criteo is the newest ad network I’ve added to my B2C sites.
What I love about Criteo is you can set a RPM floor so that you’re guaranteed a certain RPM.
Currently I have 2 Criteo ads on my site. One is placed to display
if it generates a higher revenue than one of my Media.net ads. The
other is an ad on its own that will only display if it meets the RPM
floor I set.
I set fairly high RPM floors for both units. It’s only been 2 days, but already the results are very impressive.
1. Media.net
