Google has retired their Adsense referral program. Here is the email they sent:
Thank you for participating in the AdSense Referrals program.We’re writing to let you know that we will be retiring the AdSenseReferrals program during the last week of August.

We appreciate your patience during this transition and here are some alternative options to consider:
* Google Affiliate Network: As part of the integration of DoubleClick, the DoubleClick Performics Affiliate Network will now operate as the Google Affiliate Network for advertisers targeting users located in the United States. Similar to the AdSense Referrals program, the Google Affiliate Network enables publishers to apply for advertiser programs and get paid based on advertiser-defined actions instead of clicks or impressions. Forfurther details, please visit:

www.google.com/ads/affiliatenetwork.

* AdSense for content ads: If you have less than three AdSense for content ad units on a page, you may wish to replace the referral ad units with standard AFC ad units.
If you currently use referral ads, either to promote Google products or offerings from Adwords dvertisers, AdSense Referrals code will no longer display ads beginning the last week of August. We encourage you to take the following steps before the product is retired:

* Remove the referral code from your site(s): Please take a moment to remove all referral code from your sites before the last week of August, so you can continue to effectively monetize yourad space.

* Run and save all referrals reports on your desktop: Createa nd save all reports related to the referrals program on your desktop, so you continue to have access to your valuable campaign information.

Similar thing happened with Nitro Marketing As I'm writing this only a few affiliate links are working other links are directing to either 404 pages or entirely different sites and we never received any notification on this.
