I just put Adsense referrals on my web site and am interested to see how I’ll do. I chose to let Google choose which ads appear on my site, and several of them pay above $80 a referral (I’m a health blogger). One or two signups a month would be a big, big increase in income for me.

I’m amazed, The new Adsense Referrals “2″ started rolling out 3 weeks ago

This is the absolute biggest event to happen for Adsense marketers, since the arrival

of 1 cent clicks 18 months ago.

You can now turn these 1 cent clicks into huge profits.

I cannot believe there is not a huge buzz about this all over the internet. There should be!

This is what all those people how have found it hard to make money with Adsense have

been waiting for.

I’m starting the BUZZ now.

See my Video Demonstration

See why all the other CPA offer sites like Azoogle are going to feel the pain.

Yeah Thomas – I was surprised by the lack of Electronics ads too. Hopefully that’ll change in time because at the moment it’s lean pickings!

Hmm, I find it very weird that there is so little ads for electronics. There was no hits for “digital camera”.
Oh well, hope it will expand later.

Has anyone received any money from the new Google 2.0 referrals program?

I have more than one site. My main site is about “hotel” and Google does have “hotels ads” at google referrals ( in portugues wich is my native language) .
I put this google referrals at my sites. It was shown 3000 and zero clicks !
So, I removed google referrals from my site.
I do preffer the old AdSense, because with the “old” one I do receive some USD each month.

Ah..seriously, I don’t see that feature in my Adsense Referrals setup. And also I’ve applied this feature since It has been launched. But I did not get any reply from Google Adsense even I’m adsense publisher. Google always do like this ?

Well I think that this is not going to help the CPC publishers with the niche like proxies or even image hosting in that case as CPA will suffer a lot on these niches.

I checked out the referral program and they don’t seem to have products in my niche. I couldn’t find anything related to fitness or health, and those are the things I would want to advertise on my blog. Oh well, as you say, perhaps in a few weeks, once more advertisers sign up, there will be more selection.

Are we allowed to put the referral in a post on our blog and review it so people are interested in it?

That's hot (don't I sound like Paris circa prison?). Adsense seems to always keep everyone on the edge of their seats, don't they. - Ask Trew Life

I’ve been reading this blog forever now, but never thought of commenting. My two cents here on google referrals. Mine got activated today and had a thorough look through them.

These need to look different than the regular ads for anyone to even think of implementing on one’s site. The same kind of ad units, sizes is kind of monotonous. I have been using Linkshare/CJ/NCSreporter for CPA ads and they are doing just fine.

Having “Ads by Google”, and now more so “Referral Ads by Google” is somehow toxicating at times to the reader. Google adsense search, ad units and now referrals.

Its high time they give us some freedom on how we present advertising to our readers.

One thing which will keep me from implementing it for the time being is the caption “Referral Ads by Google”

True we earn a major part of our advertising earnings from Google Adsense, but so much of their own “BRANDING” will at some point of time motivate us enough to move to other options, or to at least reduce “Ads by Google” on our pages.

They could have picked up a thing or two from the smartzones being used by Commision Junction, where you have much more freedom on which links to use and managing them.

More later…
