I got an email from the Google Adsense Team saying that the Google is discontinuing the Referral program from August end. Instead we can sign up for the Google Affiliate network which is actually the Google acquired company, Doubleclick.

I am not at all worried as I do not use the referral products on any of my blog now as I tried and was not working well for me. If you are using referral code, just start removing it as it will not work after August end. If you are using in templates it should not be a problem but if you have used for individual pages, then it should be a tough time for you.

In the affiliate network you will not be paid for impressions or clicks, but only for conversions according the rates set by the advertisers. Depending upon the kind of visitors that you will be getting you will earn or there is no point wasting your space for this kind of program.
