Paypal, Wire transfer, ACH. It takes 3-4 days to get approval for your
application and I suggest that you apply for Superlinks and Adversal
both. Though Superlinks ads will pay more, but it’s also good to have
one more alternate option with you.

BuySellAds is
one of the alternatives to Google Adsense. As soon as you submit your

Chitika is a CPC product oriented program. I like Chitika because of two
reasons. Firstly, it always places relevant ads based on the content,
which helps you to get more click. Secondly, you can edit text color,
URL color, border color to blend with your blog format. You can also
choose for their referral program, to earn extra income.

Viglink is perfect for a blog which is linking out to business or
e-commerce site. Viglink concept is quite unique from all of the above
and you can earn money by making affiliate sales. Viglink works great
when you have outgoing links to business or product pages such as
fashion store, Amazon. Harsh has shared a greatcase-study of Viglink on a fashion blog.
Even if you don’t have outbound links but you are using money terms
like Apple, iPhone or any other, Viglink will automatically add links to
these words and you will end up making decent money. What’s best about
Viglink is; it’s incubated by Google and it is SEO friendly ad program.

Skimlinks is the best alternative to above Viglink and it works similar
to Viglink. It converts your outbound links into affiliate links and you
earn money when a sale happens. You should pick Viglink or Skimlinks
based on the the of blog you have. As I mentioned above, you might end
up earning 10X of your existing earning with Viglink and Skimlinks, as
they pay for affiliate sales and not for the click. Specially if are
looking to monetise your forums, You should give try to Viglink or
Skimlinks.
