I would like to hear your advice which should I start for better profit. Affiliate marketing or Google adsense?

How to invest less but earn more from one of 2 these fields.

Your comments would be appreciated.

Well profit depends on your skill, knowledge, luck and determination. Lots of determination. Blood, sweat & tears. Also the niche or product you choose to promote to how you promote it.

Neither require any monetary investment as its free to apply and be accepted for Google Adsense and there are plenty free to join affiliates with products/offers/services etc to promote.

Both will require investing a lot of time and hard work on your behalf though if you are to make anything worth making.

But you cannot earn more or less from either. Both pay different amounts depending on how well you're doing with it, what you're promoting, what the CPC/EPM or cut is.

There are no shortcuts unless you come up with something new or cool or manage to get your site ranking 1st for something worth ranking 1st for.

And these days, that ain't easy, especially for new sites.

Sorry if that's not what you wanted to hear but its the truth.

What you put in, you get out.

I'd start with affiliate marketing. When I think adsense, you either have two choices. You can go the Youtube partner route (cool if you're into that), or you can build a site and put adsense on it. The thing about putting adsense on a site is that it takes A LOT of traffic to make decent money with that because you get paid so cheaply per click. Statistically speaking, it takes just as much traffic to get an adsense click as it does to make an affiliate commission. Would you rather make .30 or $30+ (depending on what you're promoting but you get the point). The last I heard (don't know if it's changed), you had to make $100 before you could get paid by the Google adsense program. Imagine how long that will take at .30 a click!

Both. A newbie should try both. In order to earn from affiliate marketing you need be an expert salesman. You need to market your products to the right people. In order to earn from adsense, you need to become a better marketer, you need to market your website to yhe right people. In fact both of these earning methods require more or less similar skills. You never know which will work for you until you haver first hand experience on it. Since you need a website to do affiliate marketing or use adsense, why don't you ry both instead of choosing one over the other.
