Google Adsense Alternatives

We all know it is hard to get approved by Google Adsense and luckily, there are Google Adsense alternatives that we can turn out head at and continue earning money while waiting for Adsense approval. There are many alternatives when it comes to advertisements nowadays and most of us have the luxury to choose. Of course, you can basically 'mix and match' as long as you do not break the terms and conditions. Today I am comparing between two of the best Google Adsense alternatives; Infolinks and Kontera. For those who are looking for an answer to this, you certainly came to the right hub!

The battle begins between Infolinks and Kontera

For the record, both Infolinks and Kontera are great addon and Google Adsense replacements. Both works in rather similar ways with a twist. A brief explanation on Infolinks and Kontera is they are what we call in-text ads. Simply with a click of the mouse (or even hover the mouse over) on selected keywords, a small pop up box will appear with ads in it. Sounds easy? It definitely is! Every click on the ad will enable you to earn some income from a mere $0.01 to even $0.50 or even higher. Consider having Google Adsense embedded onto your keywords. Also, before I continue further, let me remind you that you can only place either Infolinks or Kontera on your site or blog but not both at the same time due to terms and conditions.

Comparison between two giant in-text ads companies

One of the biggest comparison between both of these giants is quality vs revenue. If you are looking for quality in-text ads to appear on your website, you should definite look for Kontera. Why Kontera? When it comes to giving higher quality keywords search and ads related, Kontera outdo Infolinks without a doubt. Infolinks ads are more toward general while Kontera ads are more focused towards visitors searches. Kontera is great when it comes to quality in-text ads which the more focused the keywords and ads are, the better your chance of getting clicks.

When compared side by side, Infolinks certainly lose out in quality serving ads but 'in return', click revenue on Infolinks are much more higher than Kontera. I did a few simple testing lately and found out that my earnings at Infolink is easily 20% higher than Kontera. For your information, I did tests on specific topics with the same keywords to ensure the tests are as fair as possible.

Final verdict - Is there a clear winner for in-text ads?

My verdict is they are both equal. Due to the fact that each has their pros and cons, I would say it is definitely a tough call to make. For me, I personally use both Infolinks and Kontera as I have two separate sites. If you want me to give you an advise, I would definitely agree that if your blog or website has low to medium traffic, Kontera will be better off for you when it comes to getting ads revenue. On contrary, if your blog or website has high traffic, Infolink in-text ads will be your best bet. Either way, the choice lies in your hand and one thing for sure; both will earn you money!

Hi

This is David from Kontera.

I enjoyed reading this article, it was well written and displayed a good knowledge of both companies.

There was one question I just wanted to address, regarding click revenue. While Kontera is the best in-content solution for most publishers, because our ads are geo-targeted, depending on the region preferences of advertisers, and depending upon the subject matter of your site, your performance will vary. Your best bet is to contact me at davids@kontera.com so we can give you an honest of assessment of what Kontera can do for your site.

Allow me to share a little more about what distinguishes Kontera.

Kontera is the exclusive In-Content platform reaches over 170 million unique users per month through more than 15,000 web publisher using Kontera.

Kontera is so effective for so many different people, thanks to our unique Synapse platform, an algorithm that rather than just scanning for keywords like other in-content companies do, can read your text for actual meaning. This added understanding allows us deliver relevant information and ads directly related to user intent, leading to higher CTR and better CPC.

Another advantage of Kontera is our exclusive ad inventory from some of the biggest brand names in the world including Audi, UPS, Verizon, American Express, BlackBerry, Dell, L’Oreal, Yoplait, and many more. These premium, often Rich-Media ads are the most attractive to users, offer the best possible CPC, and are only available to Kontera Publishers.
