Referral marketing

There's got to be other people doing this...

It works. And can get you a lot of money. Until your ads get reviewed and your account banned.

I believe Google doesn't want affilates to compete with the owner of the website. But it's actually quite viable.

How does it work

Redpill me, I need the money

Basically find a referral program that pays well. It works amazingly if the rewards are double-sided (referrer and referred both get something).

Open a google adwords account and post the link in your ad. Use smart keywords and location targeting etc. Set bids on the keywords that make sense for how much you could make on each successful referral.

Hardest part is finding a program that doesn't forbid the use of paid advertising. Most programs only want you to put the referral links on your own website.

I used it to maximize my free Dropbox space. I've got 26,4 gb on Dropbox for free.

I was also considering to use it with the uniregistry affiliate, but I'm not too sure how legit their affiliate program is (or how the conversions are).

Dropbox is pretty famous example. So is Uber.

Apparently Paypal used to pay $10 to both parties so if you had that on google adwords you could literally make a living off it.
