Adsense Guide | What is Adsense and how do you use it?
This will be the practical primer. Exactly what Google does behind the
scenes is probably unknowable, and it doesn't really matter. If you
are new to Adsense then i reccomend you read googles own guide at
Adsesne Guide.
What counts is how you can use Adsense to make money on your own
websites. The first step is sign up for an account. If you’re reading
this guide, you probably already have. If you haven’t, it is easy.
Do the following:
Go to and click the Advertising Programs link under the search box.
You’ll see the Google Adsense link on the right. Click it.
Click the Click Here to Apply button and follow the step-by-step
instructions.
Providing a Web Site Address
Google will review the web site address you provide for compliance
with the content policies of the AdSense program (see https://www.google.com/adsense/policies
for more information about AdSense policies). It is not unusual for
Google to reject web sites for noncompliance with content provisions
of the AdSense policies; the prohibitions range from excessive
advertising content through adult content, content about hacking, and
content using excessive profanity.
It is permissible (and often done) to use one Google AdSense account
across multiple web addresses. If you are maintaining half a dozen
sites, it is easier to work with a single AdSense account than to keep
up with statistics, adsense channels and adsense earnings on multiple
accounts ( more on monitoring your adsense satistics ).
This leads to the possible scenario of submitting one URL for
acceptance into the program and eventually placing AdSense ads on
noncompliant sites. You could probably get away with doing this for a
while, but it is a bad idea. If you are caught, Google will most
likely terminate your entire account.
The best approach is to apply for a separate account for any web site
with questionable content. That way, you are aboveboard. If Google
accepts the account application, it can have no beef with you because
of the content. If Google rejects the application, then you'll need to
work with one of the less squeamish vendors mentioned in Adsense
Alternatives.
That’s all there is to it. Once you’re signed up, you’ll be able to
log into your account and choose the Adsense Setup tab.
From there, you can set up your Adsense ads the way you want to, and
we’ll be covering that in more detail later.
Setting up the ads is not as hard as it may sound, although it does
require a little bit of HTML copying and pasting.
For example, when you choose to set up Adsense for content which is
what we will spend most of our time on in this guide. Google will walk
you through a wizard to get that done (to choose colours, ad size,
etc.) At the end of that process, Google generates HTML adsense code
for you which you can copy and paste into you web page.
It looks something like this:
<script type="text/javascript"><!--
google_ad_client = "pub-4545DD5162627";
google_ad_width = 728;
google_ad_height = 90;
google_ad_format = "728x90_as";
google_ad_type = "text";
//2007-07-05: ADSENSE CHANNEL
google_ad_channel = "8977562712";
google_color_border = "B4C48D";
google_color_bg = "B4C48D";
google_color_link = "ffffff";
google_color_text = "000001";
google_color_url = "999999";
//-->
</script>
<script type="text/javascript"
src="http://pagead2.googlesyndication.com/pagead/show_ads.js">
</script>
Putting that code on your page tells Google everything it needs to
know to display context-driven ads on your page. You don’t need to
worry about the technical details. Instead, you need to focus on
creating a site which displays Adsense ads effectively, which means in
a way that increases your odds of getting a high click-through rate (CTR)
on those ads, and a good cost per click (CPC).
Wait a minute! What is this cost stuff?
Don’t worry. The CPC is what the advertiser pays, not you. On the flip
side, an advertiser’s CPC is what Google gets paid. You get a cut of
Google is fee, so a higher CPC means your pay goes up. Google for
things related to Adsense and you’ll find more information than you
can imagine. Some of it is complete junk. Some if it might be helpful,
but there is so much of it that it is tough to do anything useful with
what you find and I can make one claim with absolute confidence. When
it comes to using Adsense, there are three kinds of people that are
making adsense income:
Those who don’t make a dime with it
Those who make a little bit by including it on sites designed for
another purpose
Those who make a killing
That last category is probably the one you want to be in. If not then
you really dont need to be reading this guide. For those that do,
contiune reading the atricles to the left and below! Our Adsense tips
and Adsense strategies are listed below.

Internet Based Income Streams
Don't You Hate These Hyped Up Ads?
Income Opportunities Worth Millions!
Work at home for an hour a day and make six figure income!
Use your computer to make money off the internet!
Get rich with no work!
Are you lost and confused about this whole home income opportunity
online scheme / scam? Are you sick of the hype that makes everything
as clear as mud? I certainly am! Not sure what the latest hot internet
marketing fad is or if it is a dying one?
All of these questions and more I have asked myself recently. I am
David Robertson and I created this website to answer some of these
questions for people that are interested. I am not about hype or sales
pitch or the latest gimmick. I am interested in giving you information
as clearly as I can, when I get it.
I started on this quest by wishing I could make an income from the net
and then I stopped and took a step backwards. I actually make a
significant portion of my income from the internet already. Not as you
may think through internet marketing. Some of you may have arrived at
this website from www.artistblacksmith.com which is my primary
website. I am an artist blacksmith and most of my income comes from
people ordering courses or equipment from my website.
My reasons for exploring the internet for opportunities was to find a
source of supplemental income. Back in the winter of 2006 I injured my
elbow (no not from smithing, I was chopping wood and hit it on the
wood pile. Don't ask!) This meant I had to cut back on the smithing to
allow it to heal and I started to look for alternative income streams.
My pursuit has been based on a series of assumptions.
Many people have made money off the internet.
Some people have made a lot of money of the net.
People no smarter than I am have made money on the internet.
Making money just requires the right information.
Persistence is important.
It may take a bit of money to make money.
There are expensive ways of doing things and cheap ways of doing
things.
Expensive ways are usually faster and sometimes better but not always.
There is always more to learn.
What I Have Found So Far
What I have found so far is that persistence is one of most important
things you need to rely on. When I started looking into web based
marketing I was hit with a ton of new terms sometimes things are
called by several different names. Very confusing. It is very much a
process of sifting through all the information and gleaning the
truths.
On this website I am going to try and break down what I have learned
as clearly as I can. This is set at a novice level because I am
definitely a novice in the area of home income opportunitys. I will
also provide access to the resources that I have found useful. Many of
you who read this will be much more advanced in this field than I am.
If you do see glaring mistakes I do appreciate constructive feedback.
This site is really to help people break into this intriguing world of
online supplemental income.
I don't believe in get rich quick schemes. I do believe that this
occupation will soak up a great deal of time on the computer. I also
believe that most people can develop a partial income from the
internet. Much of it depends on what you are willing to put into it.
Internet Marketing. How it works (or the Tip of the Iceberg).
The general idea is to create a system to earn multiple income streams
online that add up to a significant sum. I think of tributaries of a
river. Many little streams that individually a child could dam up with
his boot. Once 3 or 4 get together it starts to become a force to be
reckoned with. This also is the same as not putting all your eggs in
one basket.
One thing that all the authors, that I have read, agree upon is that
internet marketing is always changing. There is nothing we can do but
resign ourselves that we will constantly have to change how we work
with it. This I feel is a fundamental truth. Things that worked a year
ago may not work now.
I will touch on the topics that I am most comfortable with and will
add more as I learn about them. So the following list is by no means
complete.
Possible income streams:
Direct sales of products you make or buy for re-sale. My
www.artistblacksmith.com site is this kind.
Selling Advertising eg. Google Adsense.
Ebay and similar auctions.
Affiliate Marketing
Email List Marketing
Direct Sales
The concept is to make a website that promotes some form of product
that you sell. This can be a hard good. Something that you have to
ship out. Something that could be emailed or downloaded. Many other
possibilities. A website is much like an advertising flyer or booklet.
A series of images and text describe and promote your product. It is
usually fairly static piece of work.
I prefer to do as much of the work myself as possible. This gives me
the ability to change things easily and try new things. Contrary to
popular belief making a web site is not hard. I use a free program
called Trellian (see the resource menu for the link). Trellian is a
visual program that you can type your text in where you want it, add
pictures where you want. It does most of the coding for you. It also
allows you to go in an tweak the actual code to fix inevitable
mistakes. There is a final preview where you can see how it will look
in a web browser. As a program it was mostly intuitive to learn and
free is good.
I would also recommend getting a book on html (the actual programming
language). The one I use (it is dated now but still very useful and
affordable) is called HTML In An Instant ISBN: 0-7645-3627-3.
Using your program and html reference book build a small neat site
that tells about your product or service. Provide a way for people to
get in contact with you, email, phone, or postal address to buy your
product. For details regarding website construction see resource menu
at top right.
Next you will need to purchase a domain Name and a place to Host your
site. The Domain Name is the www.yourdomainname.com form. These are
unique so your first choice may be gone. Persevere and try different
letter and word combination that relate to your product.
The host is where your site will be on a server that has constant
access to the internet. You will have to pay a fee for the name
registration and your hosting plan. The hosting plan fee will depend
on the size of your website and how much traffic will be visiting it.
You can increase your plan if your traffic warrants it. The service I
use is Domainsatcost.com, and http://www.azhosting.com/ I have been
quite pleased with their service and prices over the years. There are
many others if they don't suit your needs. If you require more space
and multiple domains then Omnis at $6.95 a month is your best value,
and has great options!
Selling Advertising on Your Website such as Google Adsense
Google Adsense is advertising that is generated taking into account
the related text on the web page that it is placed. This means it is
targeted advertising. Each time a person clicks on your advertising
links you are paid a small sum 5 cents to maybe $1.00. This becomes
lucrative when many people come to your site and are looking for
related products. This income stream is all about numbers. If you have
1000 people per day come to your site a certain percentage will click
on the ads. The more people that come the more you stand to make.
Adsense is set up through Google and there is a forum to discuss
techniques. It is relatively painless to set up for Google adsense.
Ebay and Simular Online Auctions
You may have already bought items through ebay. You can sell as well.
Again this is easy to set up. You should have a photo of the item you
are selling and a good description. You are a little at the mercy of
the crowd for your final price but you can set a minimum that you will
take. A helpful free tool is eBay Auction Tutor, free is always good.
People who make a living off ebay have many products up for sale
every day. This will also mean packaging your product and shipping it
out. This is a good way to make some money online and with a good
strategy you could make a fair bit. This is moderately time consuming
as you have to set up the ads, take photos, package, etc.
Affiliate Marketing
When I first started researching income streams this term Affiliate
kept coming up. All this means is that you advertise another persons
product or service and they will pay you a percentage of a sale that
your advertising brings in to them. So you could design a website to
promote someone's product then place a snippet of tracking code on the
link to the products home site that you are selling. When a person
clicks through the link and buys something from the merchant you get a
commission. The affiliate service that you subscribe to then sends you
a check or direct deposits to a PayPal account the funds once you
reach a minimum threshold (usually in the $100.00 range).
One of my favorites is Clickbank. Clickbank is simplicity itself (see
also link under resources menu). This site is free to join and easy to
set up. There are thousands of digital products that you can sell in
all categories. There is even a blacksmithing ebook! Oops! Was that a
little plug? You can choose any product from the market place to sell
or you can make your own product for yourself and other people to
sell. These products are stored on the persons website server so you
only need a very small amount of space on your website for advertising
their product.
To earn multiple income streams online you simple sell several
products and set up individual small sites to do this. Many little
income streams to create income opportunities worth millions. This is
the fundamental principle. Have multiple income streams to work at
home business to make real money.
Where to Start?
By now you see the potential for many small income trickles to gather
together and form a significant income stream, that will at least
supplement your current income. Well it is possible to muddle through
things and get things half right but it will be laborious and time
consuming. People who know me know that I am a very thrifty person and
I always research something to get the best deal I can when I buy
something. There are many free items that will help you but there are
a couple of economical publications that have helped me immensely.
Honest Riches by Holly Mann This is a remarkable ebook written for
those of us that are just starting out on this venture. Holly writes
clearly and concisely and gives you step by step procedures and ways
of generating income streams. She has only been doing this a few years
and comes across as a very down to earth person. Holly is a single mom
who started this venture without a lot of training and has become
quite successful. She is genuinely interested helping all of us
succeed at this business.
Her ebook is 95 pages long and not full of filler, and was recently
updated. Once you buy her ebook she will send you a new link for every
updated version. To me this is a great selling feature since I only
have to buy the book once (and not very expensive $37.00 when I
bought) and as things change online I will get new information. Very
Cool!
Holly also maintains a forum where problems can be discussed and
sorted out. There is a really helpful community spirit on this forum.
Use the above link to check it out (Resources Menu). The ebook also
provides links to many free tools that Holly uses. Free is good when
it is available.
Turn Words into Traffic by Jim Edwards This was actually the first
book I bought. Jim is a bit more of a salesman than Holly but his
information is solid and also from personal experience. Jim's book is
165 pages long and it takes a while to get through it. He uses a lot
of examples and occasionally repeats himself. I originally bought this
book to increase traffic to my main site ="">www.artistblacksmith.com.
Not only did it do this but it started me on this whole income stream
adventure. Jim emails you a whole series of bonuses after you buy his
book. All of these have good information in them but some I can not
use at this time. In some areas it is a bit of a slow process for me
to integrate all the ideas. Still Learning!
In retrospect I would have been better off buying Holly's book first.
Once I had digested it Buying Jim's would be the next logical step.
Turn Words into Traffic builds on the fundamentals in Honest Riches.
