New Google AdSense and AdWords referral fee structure

Google just introduced a much better referral structure for current publishers, so if you have an AdSense account it is time to put up buttons like these below on your site, because you can make some serious money. If you don't have AdSense yet, go ahead and sign up.

AdSense Referrals:

  • When a publisher who signed up for Google AdSense through your referral earns their first $5 within 180 days of sign-up, you will be credited with $5. Earlier there was no such payment for small amounts. The minimum was 100 USD/3 month.
  • When that same publisher earns $100 within 180 days of sign-up and is eligible for payment, you will be credited with an additional $250. This is 2.5 times higher than before.
  • If, in any 180-day period, you refer 25 publishers who each earn more than $100 within 180 days of their respective sign-ups and are all eligible for payout, you will be awarded a $2,000 bonus (bonus payouts are limited to 1 per year). This will only concern very few individuals I believe.

AdWords Referrals:

  • When an advertiser you refer spends $5 within 90 days of sign-up (in addition to the $5 sign-up fee) you will be credited with $5.
  • When that same advertiser spends $100 within 90 days of sign-up, you will be credited with an additional $40.
  • If, in any 180 day period, you refer 20 advertisers who each spend more than $100 within 90 days of their respective sign-ups, you will be awarded a $600 bonus (bonus payments are limited to 1 per year).

The cool thing is this applies to referrals that you may have done in the last 3 month but haven't been payed for.
