The New Adsense referrals system

Any one tried out the latest and changed adsense referral system?? You can choose several categories of products to display ads of. Any one tried it out yet??

Not yet. I was reading up on this and wondering if this is part of the new pay per action system? I wasn't clear on the payout structure?

well i dont know about their payout structure, but I've read on the Net that they're introducing a two-tier system. What's a two tier system??

Really? I hadn't heard that, but that would be great. Two tier means you earn a second level of commissions and usually it refers to the earnings from the people you refer. So if I refer 300 people to AdSense then I would earn a percentage of their earnings.

I'll have to read up on this because it sounds promising.

Where did you read that? I was just checking their help and I didn't see anything about two tier. That would be sweet though. Also what concerns me a bit is when you login to your account and go into "Adsense Setup" and then click on Referrals, where are all the referrals for Firefox, Google Search, etc. Looks like the new products that siyab was referring to is all that's there now.

Siyab (cool avatar by the way)

I answered you above. Here it is again.

thanks for commenting on the avatar!(I edited the orignal yin-yang picture to make it look like this!) I tried this new system just now, but ads some of the advertisers were not available. This was the message: "No creatives available for the selected format" Wonder what this means??

Otherwise, the new referrals system is good and has many good products to choose from. This product named "Home Stead" had a referral value of $95.15 ! Wow.

Siyab, I'm so glad you brought this to my attention. I just found a book I've been promoting on Amazon.com where I earn a measly commission (I'm talking a very low $1.30!) and Google has the product with a $15 commission. Of course the person has to sign up for a free trial with their credit card but I'd much rather promote the book with the chance of earning $15 than what Amazon is paying.

I've been playing around with this and it's pretty neat. You can basically setup a customized group of ads to promote. The "no creative" message you got means there are no ads available that fit that size for that particular product. That's my assumption. For example if you found a product and select 234x60 and get that message that means the advertiser doesn't have an ad for that format.

This is going to be pretty slick once the ad database is filled.

This is how you know you've been on the computer too long.

The light bulb just went off in my head about your two-tier question Siyab. AdSense has had the two tier payment system for quite some time and for some reason I was thinking that you were talking about a new two tier system in addition to the one they had.

This may be what you're talking about...

Siyab, read this and it explains how you earn money when the people you recruit to AdSense reach a certain income level...

But the problem is I don't see links to the AdSense referral buttons anymore now that they've launched this new product referral program. I sure hope they are taking that away. I think I'll send Google an email.

I am confused about this. But am glad about the fact that maybe now we'll get more payment!
