How to start an adsense site

A very important reason why adsense took off so quickly  is that it has been very easy for publishers to get the ads on their site as quickly as possible. 

Integrating AdSense onto your website takes only a few minutes, and it is very simple to do so even the most unsure website owner can add Adsense to any page. 

The first thing you need to do is go to http://www.google.com/adsense and  apply to join, or log in if you have already signed up to Adsense. You will then see a page with the Google Adsense terms and conditions which you must agree to in order to continue.

Upon logging in you are presented with a report page which you can use to get a detailed status on how your AdSense advertising is doing. This allows you to improve your site's contents and layout to maximize your AdSense earnings.

On the top of the page you also have a link to the setup section where you can setup your own personalised adsense campaign, once you have setup your campaign you will then get some adsense code which just needs to placed in the appropriate area on your website or blog.

You may also add a Adsense google search box on your site where you will be paid when people use it and click on sponsored advertisements.

Finally, there is a "My Account" tab which allows you to set up details concerning your account, payment and tax information, users outside the US are responsible for declaring the tax themselves.

So let us go through how to set up Adsense for your website. To add a text ad on your site, go back to the "AdSense Setup" tab and click the "AdSense for content" link. Make sure you have cookies enabled in your browser.
You can make a choice between ad units and link units. The former contain text and or images concerning a certain site for each unit, most with a detailed description, the latter only contain links to certain types. We will be adding more information on the best adsense ad types to use.

You can also view an example of how the unit will look to the right of your page. However, you may only use three ad units and one link unit on any given page.  It is a good thing because the last thing you want is a page with more Adsense ads then content.

The next step is to choose your add format and colors. You can basically select any color palette you choose with Google offering some of its own if you don't have the time or skill to create one. You can constantly view how the palette will look through the aid of an example. The one that works best in terms of appearance and revenues will vary with the look, feel and content of a website.

However, your ad formats are limited to a choice of eleven formats. There's an "Ad Formats" link which takes you to a page that lets you see all even of these in action so you can decide best which one suits your site. Sometimes the most intrusive, doesn’t work best however again, this can vary from website to website.

After you finish with customization, you click "Continue" from the bottom of the page.

You are now presented with a section entitled "AdSense for Content". You can click anywhere in the text and that shows the JavaScript required to get AdSense running. This will automatically select the text in the box.

You then copy it and paste it into your pages directly. If you use dynamic pages, you should paste this code within your template so as to ensure that it gets displayed on any page of your website. Some advertisers choose not to display Adsense on every page, and this is understandable. An example of this is a company that has adsense, may also have terms and condition which would inevitably provide legal resources which would probably be deemed inappropriate.

What is then left for you to do is get content on your page (provided you didn't have any already). Google AdSense crawlers will soon visit your site, making sure that the ads displayed are relevant to your site's content.

Now you are finished with your first adsense page. You can use the same code on Multiple pages or experiment with different Adsense blocks on different pages giving each block a unique channel name you can then see which blocks are working the best for you.

SEO & Adsense

So you have been using Google Adsense on your website pages and now you want to improve your Adsense earnings. One way is to generate more traffic but the traffic needs to be good traffic rather than forced traffic. Forced traffic would be places like Traffic sites where people view sites for x amount of time before going onto the next site, this is not only against google Adsense terms it is not the way to go.

So how do you do this? Well the best way to get vistors to your Adsense ready site is to use various techniques to haev search engines send more and more visitors to your page by ranking higher in your related area.

The first thing you need to do is sort out the actual source code and the way your page is laid out. The simpler the better is the general rule of thumb. If your site is too complex then the search engines and even Adsense will have trouble sifting out the most relevant keywords from your site.

Next up, Try to have only one page for each specific topic, for example if you are running a website dedicated to pets, do not have one page about dogs and cats and hamsters, give them all seperate pages, this helps Adsense place relevant advertisements and for search engines to index your site correctly. With the example given if someone was searching for dogs you would rate better with a seperate page for dogs than you would with one page for dogs cats etc.

Also keep links to a minimum within in each page, which of course means keeping your adsense adverts to a minimum.

If you are targetting certain keywords then make sure that keyword is in the title as well as in the first paragraph, also try and get it in at the end of the page as well.  Adsense will pick up on these keywords and target the advertising around them and if Adsense is advertising similar sites then your content is good. If Adsense is throwing up some strange adverts then rethink and concentrate on getting those keywords in without going over the top.

Finally no matter how easy it is to get articles already written from article sites try your best to do your own original work or at worst take an existing article and rewrite it in your own words.  Search engines will still list you with duplicate content but you tend to get better ratings for unique content.

Search engine optimization and Adsense go hand in hand, make sure they work effectively for you, you can also use keyword tools to help you out. There are lots of books and articles on both SEo and Adsense but get the basics right first and the rest will follow.

Adsense Turnkey Websites - Worthwhile?

Taken from http://adsense.freeoffertrades.co.uk/2008/12/02/adsense-turnkey-websites-worthwhile/

Now that Affiliate Marketing has become so widespread people are now switching back to Adsense to make money. Let's face it the easiest way for somebody starting out in an online venture to make money is through Adsense, you get the benefit of pushing your own business as well as earning with Adsense.

The reason a lot of people hesitate when they think about starting an online business is because they are either a novice with websites or they are scared of handling complaints from customers who can very easily kill a site if they go the right way about it. The second major reason is because they make the assumption that to run an online business they need to actually sell products and they worry about where to get their stock from and the costs of shipping et al.





However with Adsense you do not need to worry about selling stuff or stock or anything. Let's face it you can start up a free blogger blog and put adsense on there, then keep adding quality unique content and start earning from adsense. Alternatively you can start your own online article directory and then people add content to your site for you, how cool is that!! However be careful because a directory takes up a lot of time and costs money.

A 3rd alternative would be to buy Adsense Ready websites, these are sites that are pre made and you just add your Adsense code and away you go. X amount of sites and pages with content and Adsense all done for you. You do not even have to fret about whether you have chosen the right keywords and phrases, if you funnel your traffic it is a sure thing you will make money through Adsense.

Now i know you read a lot about google and duplicate content, so this would make these pre made sites worthless, well you would be very surprised at the truth. Google still indexes pages with duplicate content, go to an article site now and find an adsense article, now take a unique phrase from that article and google it, the odds are that there are a staggering amount of hits and a big percentage of those will be the exact same article. Let's face it if google did not index duplicate content then Article directories would be out of business now, because they hold an unbelievable amount of duplicate content between them.

Article submission sites are started daily and all they do is join the long line of directories and have exactly the same content. And they still manage to earn with adsense.

So stop worrying and go ahead and take the plunge, what have you got to lose?
