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.

The will go to this sub-forum and look for writers. By posting an ad stating that you are offering article writing services, some of those webmasters will reply to your thread or send a private message to you to place an order.

You can charge $5 to $15 per article (400 - 500 words). However, if you just started out your writing business in DigitalPoint Forum, not many people will know about you.

A good idea is to bundle them into a package and sell it for a great low price like $10. Another idea is to create an e-book of your own and offer it to the members. As most members are webmasters so, your e-book has to be directly relevant to their interest.
