Jim Kukral has launched a unique tool to promote Forge Corporation’s BlogKits platform. BlogKits, an AdSense rival, is being promoted as a more efficient and easier way for bloggers to earn money compared to AdSense.
From the site:
Adsense doesn’t work for bloggers, yes, we know, such a bold statement… But it’s true!
- Low-traffic blogs will never make more than pennies per day
- One sale from BlogKits could bring you a week’s worth of click $$$ from Adsense
The tool is an AdSense comparison engine based on the amount of traffic a blog receives. The information shown is calculated based upon research and polls, taken from a sample of web users anonymously over a period of two years. The comparison engine is an interesting facilitation of a call-to-action sign up process for bloggers.
Will this have widespread adoption or offer bloggers a better chance to monetize their content compared to AdSense, Performancing’s platform or a pay per post model?
Thanks for the mention Sam. We literally “just” released this today, not even officially. The only thing to add to your write up is the “why we try to compare to Adsense”.
We’re targeting the long tail, in other words, the 69.9999 million blogs out of 70 million that get maybe 100 visitors/day to their blog… who aren’t marketers, they just know how to blog. My research has shown that those people make a penny a day from Adsense, if they’re lucky.
I don’t think I need to convince any readers on this site on the cpa low-traffic = better odds at $$$ over CPC argument, do I? 🙂
