After announcing some changes on their Adsense Referral Program. And received a number of negative and positive responses from publishers. People behind Adsense have made some adjustment on their original plan.

“The changes to referrals promoting AdSense will now depend on where your users are located, regardless of your location as a publisher. You’ll earn $100 for every user you refer to AdSense who is located in North America, Latin America or Japan when they generate $100 in AdSense revenue within 180 days and they remove all payment holds. You’ll no longer be paid for users you refer who are located elsewhere. These changes will go into effect the last week of January. “

There are also some changes to the referral programs for Google Pack and Firefox.

“Google Pack: Currently, you can earn up to $2 when a user downloads and runs Google Pack for the first time after being referred through your link or button. Starting the third week of February, each successful Pack referral will earn up to $1. This change will apply to all referrals for Google Pack and is independent of user location or publisher location.”

“Firefox: We’ll also be reducing payments for Firefox referrals from China during the third week of February. This specific referral payment change will only affect installations from users in China. Again, this is independent of your location as a publisher.”

There are some publishers who haven’t seen any AdSense referral earnings in their account. These are some errors and their engineers are working to resolve the said issue.

On my part I’m not affected on the said changes for I haven’t used their AdSense referral program but to other publishers it may affect a lot. But these adjustments to their original plan are much better. Thanks AdSense for helping us publisher to earn as much as possible.
