Google AdSense / PPC Programs

Nowadays undoubtedly Google AdSense is the most popular Pay Per Click (PPC) program in the industry. By registering Google AdSense using your website address (or even blog), Google AdSense will display a series of ads on your web pages. You are eligible to earn money every time a visitor clicks on these ads. Visitors don’t really have to buy anything. Hence, these programs called Pay Per Click (PPC) – you get paid per visitors’ clicks.

Google ads are contextually relevant, and assigned based on their relevancy to the subject of your site. To place Google Ads on your website, you need to copy the codes (HTML codes) from your Google AdSense account and paste into the HTML source code of your site.

However, as a website owner, you are strictly prohibited from clicking on these Google ads displayed on your own website, as according to Google AdSense’s policies / terms and conditions. Otherwise you are deemed to make a click fraud and Google AdSense may ban your account. Hence, make sure you read through and understand their terms and conditions before getting started.

Perhaps you are wondering why this appeared to be a very famous money making method. A very simple answer is, you earn great money by simply placing Google ads on your web pages and let visitors click on these ads.

Despite Google AdSense, there are other PPC programs that you can look for, e.g. as listed below. They serve like Google AdSense too, but with slightly different features.

Webmasters | August 20, 2006

Google AdSense is a great way for webmasters to monetize their websites. While many webmasters are struggling hard to earn $3 - $10 per day, some 'genius' webmasters have already enjoyed $30, $100, and even $300 a day from AdSense ads on their websites. How are these 'genius' webmasters differ from their counterparts? They think different! They think out of the box!

Let me share with you some tips which has been responsible in boosting my AdSense profits by 700%. Here are 5 of them, and if you follow these steps, I'm sure you'll see a difference in your AdSense income.

Here are the tips:

1- I concentrate on 1 format of AdSense ad, which is the Large Rectangle (336x280). This format has been proven to work with me in resulting high click-through rates (CTR). Why this format? Because the ads look like normal web links, and people are trained to click on these types of links.

2- I create custom palette for my ads. I choose white as the color for the border and background. This is because, all of my pages have white background. The idea is to make the AdSense ads look like they are a part of my web pages.

3- Previously, I put all my AdSense ads at the bottom of my pages. One day, I moved those ads to the top of the page. The result surprised me. My earning increased! Since then, I don't hide my AdSense ads anymore!

4- I maintain some links to other relevant websites, and I put my AdSense ads at the top of the links, so that my visitors see them first.

5- I automate the insertion of AdSense code into my webpages using SSI (server side included). You'll need to ask your web administrator whether your server supports SSI or not. Here's how to do it. You just put the AdSense code in a text file, save it as 'adsense.txt', and upload it to the root directory of your web server. Next, call the code on other pages using SSI.

This trick is really a time saver especially for those who use automatic page generators to generate pages on their
website.

Here's a tool I use to generate thousands of pages on my website within seconds:

6 Easy Ways to Increase your AdSense Revenue
by: Scott Patterson

“The following are six ways that you can do this and increase your revenue at the same time:

1) Find the right place - Most website visitors read content that is in the middle of a web page. As a result, the best place to put your AdSense block is in the top part of the page, at the beginning of your web content. You want to weave the Google Ads into your web content to give the appearance that they are extra links which expand on the information of the page.

2) Use the Large Rectangle - With Google AdSense, you have the option of picking different ad formats. Most of the time people opt to use the Leader board (728x90) or Wide Skyscraper (160x600) style ads. Unfortunately, this is the wrong choice, because both look like blatant advertisements. Instead smart webmasters have found that using the Large Rectangle (336x280) yields the best amount of click-thrus.

3) Ditch the border - Many people experience a sharp increase in AdSense revenue when they changing their border. What they change is very simple…they get rid of the border on their AdSense blocks. This is another way to make the advertisements look like useful web content.

4) Adapt the font - Whenever you write content, it should be the same font size and style as your Google AdSense block. This will help make it appear that the advertisements are a natural part of your website.

5) Match the colors - In addition to changing the fonts, you also should match the colors of your website. For instance, if your content is written in black, and your hyperlinks are blue, then the AdSense blocks should also be the same color. Again, this helps the advertisements appear to be normal web content.

6) Don't have too many distractions - On a web page, it is important to give web visitor a limited number of options. By having too many links and graphics, the web visitor might go to a section that doesn't help increase your profits. While it is important to inform and entertain your web visitor, it is also vital that you monetize your site. So if the main focus of your site is to earn an income through Google AdSense, then get rid of all non-essential links and graphics.

By taking the time to implement these six simple steps, you'll see a dramatic increase in the click-thru ratio of your ads. If added to all of the content of your site, your AdSense income will skyrocket!”
