We're constantly looking for ways to improve AdSense by developing and
supporting features which drive the best monetization results for our
publishers. Sometimes, this requires retiring existing features so we
can focus our efforts on the ones that will be most effective in the
long term. For this reason, we will be retiring the AdSense Referrals
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. For further details, please visit:

- 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 AdSense for content ad units.If you currently use
referral ads, either to promote Google products or offerings from
AdWords advertisers, 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 your ad space.
- Run and save all referrals reports on your desktop: Create and save
all reports related to the referrals program on your desktop, so you
continue to have access to your valuable campaign information.Thank you
for your support of AdSense Referrals in the past.
