If some thing can replace some other thing then the 1^st thing is reffered to be the alternative of the 2^nd one. Though the title is adsense alternative but in reality there is no other advertising program that can be actual alternative of adsense. In the online advertising industry adsense is at the top from its very beginning. There are no other program that can be real competitor of adsense. But some times we faces some situation with adsense. One of the main reason of using adsense alternatives is to be getting banned by adsense. It might happen that you have developed a blog or a website to earn revenue from adsense but for some reason adsense banned your blog or website. Or there may be another situation that adsense didn’t approve your blog or website, which happens very very often. Generally if you write 2-3 good articles which is not copied from anywhere, adsense will approve your blog or website. But if this situation occurs you must have a alternative to earn from your website. Other big reason of knowing about adsense alternatives is that some of these alternatives can work simultaneously with adsense. So you can earn some more extra money besides of adsense earning. Below we present some top adsense alternatives.
