As you may have noticed, I do not have any adsense ads on my blog. Everything banner/picture/link on my website, I manually put on here myself. I do this for several reasons.

For one, I understand what it’s like to be trying to learn all this Internet marketing stuff and see all these different products and tools out there to buy. It sure is tempting. All those headlines can really draw you in and make you believe you need these products or tools. Hey, that’s just marketing. But, many of these products seem to be all talk, but don’t deliver.

I understand what all the feels like! But, I don’t fall for it…anymore. Yes, there was a time where I’d purchase every eBook I came across. It ended up being a complete waste of money.

This is one of the reasons why I do not out adsense on my websites, especially my Internet Marketing help blogs because I don’t want to have programs, guides and tools advertised on my blogs and websites that I don’t trust. Every banner,link, picture on my websites, I recommend from my personal experience. I don’t want people to waste their money on worthless products. I recommend products that I honestly feel are very beneficial to you.

The second reason why I do not put adsense on any of my websites is because they take my visitors away! When I spend time driving traffic to my landing pages, I want them there so they purchase the product through my affiliate link, so I make money, right? Well, if you drive traffic to your landing page that has adsense ads on them, then you can lose your visitors to those ads. They visit your page, begin to read your page, but then click on an ad before they get to your affiliate link.

Wow! That little adsense click just costed you a potential sale. That click may have earned you $0.12, but you lost a potential sale that could have made you $20.00.

Don’t get me wrong, I use adsense, but only on websites and blogs that I do not promote an affiliate product on.

So the lesson here is don’t mix affiliate products and adsense on the same page/website/blog.
