The 4 Adsense Secrets You Absolutely Must Know!

Profiting with Google Adsense has long been a great way for Internet entrepreneurs to bring in lots of cash. Content may be king, but there are other factors which you can control and affect that can instantly boost your Adsense income overnight.

Publishing is a great business and you can make money while doing what you love with Adsense. Here are 4 surefire tips to increase your Adsense profits…

1) Make your ads blend in

It’s been proven that having your ads blend with your background and overall color scheme of your site helps improve the click through rates dramatically. Although many may think that contrasting colors work better, research has proven otherwise. If you force your ads on your visitors, they won’t click through. So blend in your ads with the rest of your site.

2) Add in variety

Have a number of different ad formats on your website. The two best converting ad formats are the thin skyscraper and the thin border. These two formats are time-tested to bring in the most clicks.

3) Place your ads on the left hand side and the top

It’s been proven that people’s eyes start looking from the left first. So by placing your ads on the left, there is a higher likelihood that your ads will get clicked upon. Also, the top is a great place, as that’s why many visitor’s eyes move towards. The bottom is obviously one of the worst places to place ads if Adsense is your main revenue strategy.

4) Use text links if possible

Try not to use image ads because these don’t get the click through as well as they used to. Users are now ‘banner blind’ and relate more to informative text links. So give it to them!

With these 4 tips at your fingertips, it’s very possible for you to double or triple your Adsense earnings quickly and easily. Go implement them today!

My Adsense High Paying Keywords Not Working

Google Adsense is famous, everyone is using it to make money lately. People make websites with high paying keywords such as “mesothelioma,” “student loan consolidation” and more. Then I hear many complaints about “my high paying keywords are not working on websites.”

First of all, Google Adsense is not stupid. They are not going to let you have $30 -$40 per click on websites with nothing but adsense. You cannot just put a single paragraph article that doesn’t even target the keyword and expect to earn great adsense money.

Here is the solution, You need CONTENT. Google Adsense loves content. Do not just get random free articles from websites and put it on yours. That’s not going to work! Pick a topic that you know of. Research the topic and find high paying keywords within the topic. Then write about it. You can put articles about the topic too. At last make sure you update your content. I usually update mine every week. This will make Google Adsense to send robots to your website and index the content on Google’s pages.

Now, if you’re lazy like me, you could hire a freelancer to write it for you. That is if you really cant write by yourself. I highly suggest you write yourself because people want to read about what you have to say.

Quick Tips: In order to post the Adsense ads that you want, make sure to put high paying keywords related to contents, on your website title. Also on the meta tag, keywords, and description.

Pay Per Click Advertising - Don’t Lose Money… Keep Your “Search” & “Content” Ads Separate

Pay Per Click Advertising has become an extremely popular method for generating website traffic, building lists of qualified prospects in specific niches, making sales and, in some cases, reaching prospects around the world where it wouldn’t have been either feasible or likely using traditional advertising methods.

Pay Per Click or PPC Advertising, if used correctly, can set you on a path to potential financial independence, but used incorrectly, you can lose your shirt, fast. It’s very important for newcomers to get the proper Pay Per Click education by reading one of the excellent books on Pay Per Click Advertising before actually getting in the trenches and spending money.

There are several different companies that you can choose for your advertising campaigns, Google Adwords, MSN, Yahoo Search Marketing, Kanoodle, Enhance and many more, but the undisputed king of Pay Per Click Advertizing is Google Adwords.

Google has changed their advertising rules several times now since opening their doors in the early part of this decade, but still has an enormous following. It’s estimated that Google gets apx. 47% of all searches being done on the Internet, with Yahoo second at 23%, followed by MSN at 11%. Number two and three combined don’t get as much traffic on a regular basis as Google does. This means that placing your ad there can potentially bring you a lot of qualified traffic. It also means that the competition for that traffic will be fierce and potentially very expensive, if you don’t know what you’re doing. Read on.

One of the most recent changes that occurred at Google was the ability to separate “Search Ads” and “Content Ads” within your campaigns. When you advertise using Google Adwords your ads will not only be displayed within the Google search engine, but also may be placed on other people’s websites that have related subject matter and also on some of their “Partner Networks”. Some of these partners are other search engines just like themselves, but on a much smaller scale.

For you as an advertiser, it’s very important that you keep these two entities separate when running your campaign. You now have the option to either pay less money for the traffic you receive through the Content ads or you can eliminate them from your campaign entirely. I recommend that, if you do choose to run them, even at a lower cost, you set up an entirely different campaign. I know that it sounds like a big hassle, but there’s a good reason for this. That reason is tracking your ads. If you don’t track your ads then you are losing money. It’s important that you know exactly where your clicks and sales are coming from in order to eliminate waste and only pay for what’s actually working. It’s virtually impossible to do this when you have both Search and Content running in the same campaign.

If you’re new this may seem like a lot of “chatter” to you. If that’s the case, I highly recommend that you invest in a good book on Pay Per Click Advertising, as mentioned above. If you’re not new, but this seems like a lot of extra work to you, think of it this way; you could be doing a labor job somewhere or continue in your day job for the rest of your life. Which seems worse now? Besides, once you get it set up correctly you’ll be able to get rid of the garbage, only pay for what works, increase your profits by redirecting the money that you were wasting into another area of your advertising portfolio and increase your bottom line by doing so. Does it still sound like too much work? Get those campaigns set up right the first time. Good luck!

Increasing Adsense Income

The term AdSense has almost become synonymous with a quick and easy way to earn income. Adsense is Google’s way of sharing revenue with webmasters. Adsense is used as a way to make money with a website. Online marketers call this monetizing a site. Simply put that means that your website is an employee who goes out into cyberspace and earns income for you.

How much money a Webmaster earns from Adsense is influenced by a lot of external forces. However, the most common thread for making money from Adsense is the quality of content on the website. It is not remarkable that article marketing and Adsense incomes are intrinsically linked.

Internet writers are in high demand. Writers create the content that drives the Internet consumer’s constant need for information. Some of the content in the form of articles is available from article directories. Private Label Rights Membership sites provide another supply of articles.

Because of the constant requirement for content, there are thousands of article directories that provide an unlimited number of articles on various subjects that Webmaster use to fill their sites with updated content. This content is an important resource. Good content is demanded by online surfers. Quality content encourages the search engines to not only visit the sites but to reward content publishers who provide quality content with higher page rankings.

Putting AdSense on a web page that has relevant content is the foundation for creating extra income. Using keywords and other Search Engine Optimizations tactics correctly will result in the highest revenues. Some experts suggest certain colors of the ad or the way the Adsense ads are placed on the page are differentiating factors that effect Adsense income.

There are many strategies explained in ebooks and reports on how to make the best use of Adsense ads to increase your income. But nothing brings the search engines, clicks, visitors and sales quicker than providing good content. Quality content is the fuel that drives this money machine.

Building a website from scratch for the sole purpose of cashing in on all the money available through AdSense might be a good use of resources. But the website must contain real content. Some webmasters try to use shortcuts to create Adsense sites.

Google penalizes sites that are packed with keywords and nonsensical articles that read like badly translated dictionaries. These sites are created solely for the purpose of providing a space to put up AdSense units. This type of site is ignored or at worst banned by Google. Your Adsense sites must meet Google’s stringent criteria for relevant content in order to monetize the site.

In the Online world you can never be too rich or offer your customer too many choices. The Internet is all about choice. You can create websites around almost any keyword or subject and earn Adsense income. The quality of the content on the site will determine whether you create income from Adsense or a static placeholder on the Internet.

How To Build One Profitable Website After Another

You’ve been trying for months, maybe years now, to make your website profitable.

All you hear about is how people are setting up one income stream after another. They build a website and it turns into a little money well for them, then they move onto another site, another niche, another market and repeat the process.

How do they do it and more to the point why aren’t you?

This is the question not just on your lips but on thousands of webmasters around the world. All sold the hype that it’s easy as pie to make piles of cash by just slapping up any old website and sticking adsense on the pages.

Of course, this turned out to be not so true, so what is the key to really making a profit on the net.

Well, for starters ignore all this bum marketing crap. What is the point of writing hundreds of articles and then sending all that traffic to someone else’s website? Sure you may make a few dollars doing this, and that, for a lot of people, is enough. Most people just want to see if it’s possible that they too can make some money (any money) from the internet.

But there’s a better way.

You must concentrate all of your efforts on building your own site. If possible, pick a niche you’re interested in and check that there’s a demand for it and not a ridiculous amount of competition (or it’ll be harder to make a profit).

Build web pages full of useful, original content, and build plenty of them. Make your site “sticky” so that people will want to actually read your site and maybe even link to it if they have their own site. Begin to turn your site into the authority in its niche.

Use the power of article marketing. Write (or have written) plenty of articles but have them point to your site using different keywords in the anchor text of the author bio on each article.

So far so good. You should have a site with decent, original content (and for goodness sake, ignore all the article spinners and so called content “generators” - there’s no need and it’s just another way for cynical marketers to squeeze every last cent out of you.)

You will also have a growing collection of incoming links which are helping your site rank in the search engines for the keywords you have selected.

Now you can play around with some of the more Web 2.0 styled traffic growing options like creating a Squidoo lens and adding a Wordpress blog to your site. But all of that should come later, once you’ve set the foundations of your site.

Once your site is looking good, it’s showing up in a few directories, has a few incoming links and is starting to rank for search terms; now you can start to monetise it.

Personally, I start off with a few adsense blocks scattered in the most effective positions. These will start to bring in the cash almost immediately. Then, depending on the niche, I’ll settle for adsense income or I’ll ramp things up and introduce a mailing list, affiliate products and maybe even my own product.

There’s an endless array of things you can do to monetise your site, the most important thing is having your own site and building strong foundations. How you make money from it is then down to testing and tracking your results.

Like anything it’s easy when you know how. Just be prepared to put in some work in the initial stages. Once you’ve got yourself a formula you’re comfortable with, you’ll find it gets easier and easier to build sites and you’ll make more and more money in a variety of different niches.

Earning High As AdSense Publisher

I’m an Adsense publisher for over 2 years. Initially, I’d put Adsense ads in just about any place on my website as long as I felt that they ‘aesthetically’ fit in the pages.

Since I’m a fan of attractive banner ads, I used to look upon Adsense as unpleasant-looking intrusions in those days. But then shortly it dawned on me that to be not an active Adsense publisher is rather a foolish act for a website owner like me.

When I started their ads, I didn’t consider Adsense to be any different from other commercial ads. After awhile I realized where Adsense scores over others is the ability to know how the ads are performing in my website through detail statistics.

Okay, others do provide those stats, but somehow I’ve a nagging suspicion that in many cases, the figures shown are diluted to a great extent so that advertisers can escape paying affiliate charges.

This I feel is especially true for non-US sites if only because site owners from other countries have virtually no legal recourse to challenge those figures.

But there are other compelling reasons to opt as an Adsense publisher. Hundreds of articles and research have shown that viewers are more likely to click on simple text ads instead of image ads. Also, image ads create distraction, which many do not like and may therefore stop being shown in the browser.

But perhaps the 2 biggest advantages being an Adsense publisher are twofold.

  1. Only content-specific ads are displayed. This means Adsense will automatically and in real-time adjudge type and nature of content in a page, and will accordingly display the ads. This increases possibility of click-through because for a reader the ads are just like natural extensions of the contents they are seeing in the page.

    Agreed, this Adsense feature is available with scores of other similar ad providers, notably Yahoo!’s YPN and Microsoft’s adCenter. But what they appreciably lack is the vast repository of ads available with Adsense. This, according to me, is its single biggest advantage.

  2. Google AdWords is so popular that one gets to see ads from virtually every nook and corner of the globe. There are also local language ads available. The stock of text ads with Google is phenomenal.

    This means in my blog about the city of Kolkata where I live, I’m able to display Adsense ads that are specific to my Kolkata-related content. No wonder, as an Adsense publisher, my blog-site enjoys healthy click-through.

If these are reasons enough for you to become an Adsense publisher, more are in store if 2 recent developments are any indication. Article continues in author’s blog-site.

5 Tips To Increase PPC Earnings

The following are my top 5 tips on how to increase your google adsense earnings. These methods are not guaranteed to work, but if followed correctly they will give you a great starting point.
Also the effectiveness of these tips depends on the type of site being run, they will be more effective on a movie review site then a proxy or flash arcade site.
So let’s get started.

5) Revenue Sharing Forums.

This is not a very effective way of increasing earnings, but every penny helps at this stage of the game. So check the forums that you frequent, view the user options and if available add your google adsense user i.d. Now when you post in these forums and an ad is clicked you will receive a portion of the profits.

4) Create Channels.

Make sure you create unique channels for each set of ads, this way you know which ad groups perform best and which ad groups you need to alter.
The most effective way to use channels is to have a single channel created for each ad space. If you have ads beneath your header, name the channel header, it’s that simple. From this point on page views, clicks etc will be viewed under this channel.

3) Blending your Ads.

This may be the most important part of increasing your earnings. The optimal look on your site is to have the adsense links blend with your site links and the adsense description blend with the content on your site. You may also want to blend the background and border with the background on your page. Black ads on a white site are just begging for a 0.00% ctr.

2) Choose the Correct Ad Sizes.

This step is quite obvious but for the sake of the article and new adsense users I will indulge anyhow. You DO NOT want to bombard your users with massive ads, adsense or not. For the most part larger ads do work better, as long as they fit well into the layout of your site.

1) Choose the Correct Placement for Your Ads.

This completely depends on the type of site that you run. The majority of the time you will be adding your Google Adsense Ads above the fold (the bottom of the screen when opening a new page), and inside the content or menu. This will ensure your ads will be viewed while your content is being read or site being navigated.

Now while doing this you want to avoid making it look like you are trying to trick the user into clicking on your ads, if you do try to trick them it may result in one of two things. One, your users may feel deceived and not revisit your site, thus diminishing any opportunity of clicks next time. Two, you may violate google adsense terms of service and be banned from adsense for good.

The best of luck to everyone.

YPN vs. AdSense - The Ultimate Comparison

So here’s the “million dollar question”: Which is better, Yahoo Publisher Network or Google AdSense?

Let me make this short and sweet .. YPN is better for well-established websites with US-based visitors, and AdSense is better for un-established - or under-established - websites with a majority of visitors from outside of the US.

Allow me to explain why in more detail.

The number one reason Google’s AdSense program has far outweighed Yahoo’s Publisher Network is because they’ve been able to spread out as far and wide as possible in as little time as possible. Some may argue that this has caused Google to stretch their selves far too thin and possibly cause instability in the contextual advertising industry, but that remains to be seen. At this point it is only speculation whether or not either program has become ineffective or unprofitable to advertisers or publishers respectively.

Google has been able to cater to a diverse audience of independent or direct marketers with its AdWords program over the years and they have managed to more than quadruple their shares doing so. This brings us to Yahoo, which has still proven itself in the market second to Google, in contextual advertising, but remains advantageous in respects to displayed and branded advertising from larger firms.

In regards to payout YPN retains generally higher CPC (Cost Per Click) than Google and thus appears more profitable to publishers. YPN also sets a minimum monthly budget for its advertises in order to create advertiser integrity and increase revenues, whereas Google has no minimum spending budget and imposes less stringent screening of their ads.

The only real noticeable difference is that AdSense seems to make a lot more sense. What I mean is AdSense will display far more relevant ads in regard to the content of its pages than YPN. For a website publisher this means that the chances of a visitor clicking on an ad - and thus generating commission for the publisher - are a lot higher with AdSense.

This is what we refer to as a conversion rate; the number of ad impressions made versus the number of times ads have been clicked on. The higher the conversion rate the more money you make as a publisher. So in a sense Google AdSense can more than make up for what it lacks in CPC with what it generates in higher conversion.Both YPN and AdSense are free to join and extremely easy to implement on any website with even the most basic HTML and web-design knowledge. However, YPN requires a little more maintenance than AdSense for one very daunting reason. YPN does NOT allow publishers to display their ads to NON-US visitors, and in fact will boot you from their program for doing so, if even inadvertently. With YPN a publisher would be required to resolve to their own geo-targeting solution in order to prevent ads from being displayed to visitors from outside of the US.

While AdSense, on the other hand, implements geo-targeting directly and serves the ads up on your website with the visitors location already in mind. You can not be penalized by AdSense for which visitors view what ads, simply because they take care of all this for you in-house. This makes AdSense worry-free, requiring virtually no tech-savvy skills, for those website publishers who aren’t too familiar with coding.

Another underlying, and sometimes oblique, constraint between the two programs is that you technically cannot use both on the same website. Some publishers will hard-code their websites to display only YPN ads to US visitors and AdSense ads to non-US visitors so that both do not appear on the same web page at the same time.

For YPN this does not seem to cause a problem, seeing as to how their Terms of Service explicitly state that using similar or other third-party advertising is not prohibited given that YPN ads are not displayed on the same web page as ads of a competing contextual advertising program (i.e. AdSense). However, some publishers have reportedly been banned from the AdSense program for using YPN even on the same website. While this is unlikely accurate (since Google will never tell you exactly why it is you have been banned from AdSense) it may be possible, because carefully having reviewed the Terms of Service there are restrictions that seem all too vague, but considerably risky to leave unascertained. But then again Google seems to be changing their Terms of Service for AdSense publishers constantly.

Overall, AdSense seems to be a much faster and effective method of website monetization for the average publisher as opposed to the laggy slower YPN. AdSesne will likely review your website and either approve or deny your application for a publisher account within 2 to 3 business days. YPN may take up to two full weeks. Let’s not also forget that YPN has been in beta for several years now.

If you’re just starting out as a website publisher and need a fast and easy way to monetize your pages in a hurry, stick with AdSense. However, if you’re an experienced website publisher with a large well-established US-based visitor count, you may be able to use YPN to a greater advantage.
