Are There Any Google AdSense Alternatives?

Whatever the reason for trying Google AdSense alternatives, this article will provide you with a lowdown of some of the most popular alternatives.  Believe it or not, there are many out there, so we will just look at some of the better Google AdSense Alternatives.

Clicksor Instead of Google Adsense

The first of the Google AdSense alternatives we will look at is Clicksor.  This is a very popular advertising network and operates similarly to AdSense.  IT is free to sign up and allows you to earn money through a variety of ad types including contextual ads and text ads.  You can earn as much as 60% of the revenue share, depending on the performance of the ads on your website and how many clicks they receive.  Payment is made every 2 weeks either by PayPal or a check, when you reach the payment threshold of $50.  One downside is that Clicksor ads are often seen as being irritating to users, so that is worth bearing in mind.
