10+ Ways to Increase Adsense Earnings

2011-01-14T19:34:00.000-08:00

Why Yet Another AdSense Tips?

The main reason for this is majority of websites who talks about AdSense tips will talk about high paying keywords and Ad position to increase CTRs or will suggest creating websites for ads (Made for AdSense Type) but what I am going to tell you is about using AdSense or any other CPC network for your actual business.

Remember that I will not share much specific data because of AdSense Terms of Service.

So let us get into the tips.

1. Right Aligned vs. Left Aligned Ads

I have seen over times that Ads within the content which are Aligned Left perform far better than those which are aligned right.

I am not sure why but this is true and I can only think of one reason that left aligned units look more like a content that right aligned units.

2. Ad Sizes – Use large size.

In my forums I have preferred leaderboard for quite some time but many AdSense tips suggest to use rectangular ad units and when I experimented with rectangular ad units results were amazing.

I placed 2 rectangular ad units between my first and second post of each thread and these ad units performed better than the leaderboard above the fold.

3. Ad Blocking

You need to be constantly looking at your own ads and see if you find ads which are mainly made for AdSense type of website. If you see any such websites block them. See official statement as to how to block ads here. As a general rule I always block free websites like blogspot.com / hubpages.com or even .co.cc domain ads from appearing in my AdSense units. This helped me increase average per click revenue to a large extent.

4. Ad Placement

You may be aware of Google heat map and above the fold ad placement but I was willing to experiment one step further then what Google suggested and found that ad placed within the content works best. Not above the primary content.

5. Add AdSense to High Traffic Websites

As your site grows you tend to become eligible for better CPM ad networks and this is where you tend to make less use of AdSense and concentrate more on the CPM Ad network and direct ads. It is good to be going that way but do not forget to experiment with AdSense time and over again.

Few months back I decided to put AdSense back on sites which I have removed as I had too many direct advertisers and I saw very good results. This not only helps me make some extra money with AdSense but also helped me understand that I need to change the pricing of my advertising space to my direct advertisers.

6. Add AdSense to Low Traffic Websites

Many people believe that having ads on new sites is not worth it but at times in many experiments they think that this website failed and do not concentrate much on that site either.

Same is the case with me and over a period of time I have done lots of experimentation and forgot about those sites but adding AdSense to these websites as well gave a really good boost to my AdSense earnings.

See for yourself: GlobalDevelopers.net / OperaOfLife.com. It just adds to the overall earning for me without me even spending a second on that websites currently.

7. Use AdSense for Search

I always prefer to have AdSense for Search on the most prominent position on all my forums and this means I not only add to the ad revenue of my websites but it also enhances the user experiences. After all I started this article saying I am not suggesting tips for MFA websites but mainly for your real business websites.

8. Use AdSense for Feeds

I have not seen very decent CTR for Feeds and it also need lots of RSS readers to make anything decent but then it’s not bad when it just adds to your overall income month on month basis. RSS Readers are loyal readers of your site and many believe that it’s not worth showing them ads but I opted to display ads below my feed items and results were surprisingly good.

9. Link Units

Many AdSense tips suggest to use Link units but do not suggest where and how to use them effectively. I have seen that horizontal link units below the Navigational links works just perfect with very good CTR and good eCPM as well and rectangular link units within the content. Link units are very sleek which do not take up much of your Ad space and so with less space it can make you good money.

10. Section Targeting

Section targeting is an AdSense feature that allows you to suggest specific sections of your site that should be used when matching ads. You can read more about it here. It is a way to tell Google AdSense to show ads related to specific content. In forums each post from user comes with details about the user and other things but with section targeting you can make sure you show ads related to content of you post and not related to content of user details and other content. Similarly on blogs you can make sure you show ads based on content of the pots and not related to content of the comments or any other content in the sidebar.

Increase Google AdSense Earnings

2011-01-14T19:32:00.000-08:00

Having AdSense on your blog can generate a nice chunk of change if you do it the right way. There are a few main guidelines to stick to when it comes to your ad placements and if you follow them, you will have a better chance of seeing some clicks. Now before I talk about the tips, I want to say that AdSense earnings do not just come to you in a week, or sometimes even a month or two. It does take time for your website to generate traffic, so do not lose hope when you aren't making a lot or even a small amount right away. Be patient and continue to work hard on your blog.

Now onto the tips to increase your AdSense earnings.

Where To Place Your Ads

This step is one of the most important keys to a successful AdSense income because if the placements are horrible, then you will not get any clicks. There are a few popular choices when it comes to placing your ad on a blog. Let's go through them.

-"Above The Fold"

You will see this little saying everywhere you go if you are trying to learn about AdSense. What does it mean and how does it relate to AdSense? If you go to a blog or website and do not scroll down at all, everything you see on the page is above the fold. Think of it as the top part of your blog or website. It is important to AdSense because when a visitor stops by your blog, the first things they see are all above the fold. This means you want to direct their attention right away, and by placing ads above the fold you will be doing so. That is why you see a leaderboard ad in the header of most sites who use AdSense.

-In A Blog Post

Placing an ad directly into each post you create is very useful since that is where your visitors will go the most. The most popular locations are before the content or wrapped into the post text. Each will make sure that your ad is seen right away by the reader and will blend in with the content. It is said that more readers will click an ad if it is shown on the left instead of the right. Wrapping your text around the ad, makes it blend in well so it looks like it belongs in your post. Make sure the colors match your layout.

-In The Header

Placing an ad into your header of the site is good because it attracts the reader's eye right away. The very top portion of your blog is where you want to display the header ad.

-Sidebar

The sidebar is a great location but is not as effective as a post ad. Still if you have the extra space and an available AdSense ad to be displayed, then placing one into your sidebar is helpful. As said before, readers will usually click ads on the left side of the site so a right side ad may not give great results but it will still help to create some extra earnings.

-Between Blog Posts

Inserting an ad after every 1 or 3 posts on your main page or archive pages will give you great results. Play around with your placements, start with after your 1st post and see how it works. If the results are bad, then place an ad after the 3rd post. Trial and error is your friend.

-Menu Placement

The last spot I would recommend is placing a text link ad under your menu or navigation bar. It really depends on the layout of your blog to know if this is a good thing to do. Try it out and if it looks right, then go with it for a month to see if you get any clicks. If you find it didn't help at all, then remove it and just concentrate on your main content ads.

Choosing The Size & Colors

One of the most important steps in AdSense earning, is to choose the right size and colors. You do not want your ads to be unnoticeable by visitors because they are too small or cannot be seen. You also do not want your ads to be too intrusive or blind your visitors with bright colors.

-Size Of Ad

The size of your ad is very important because you want it to be noticeable but not in the way of your content. The most effective block sizes are the (336×280 Large Block), which is used mostly for posts, sidebars, or in between posts. The other effective block size is the (728×90 Leaderboard), which is used for the header ad placement. These two are the most commonly used sizes throughout the blogging community and they do increase earnings. You can also try a (160×600 Wide Skyscraper) in your sidebar if the large block one isn't doing it for you. Once again, trial and error, keep testing different positions and sizes.

-Color Choices

Blending your ads is a great way to make them look like they belong with your layout and so they don't scream "Click ME! I'm an ad!". Try to match the text of the ad with the same text colors you use on your blog. If you do not use text ads, then you will not have to worry. So if you have a blog with a white background, black titles, and blue links, then use the same for your ad layout.

Keywords

Your AdSense advertisements are based on keywords found in your posts and pages. By having good keywords that earn a lot per click, you are increasing your chances for a better payout. So if you do some research on Google for top paying keywords, then you should get an idea of what pays the most. Some blogs do not make much per click from their ads, simply because their blog topic isn't a high paying category. But by writing posts that include high paying keywords, you can change that a little. I found an article here that shows some high paying keywords, to give you an idea.

Competitive Ad Filter

If you login to your AdSense account, go to AdSense Setup, and then Competitive Ad Filter, you will see some great options that will help you earn more. Using this filter is helpful because you can block certain sites from being displayed on your website. So you can block ads that do not relate to your blog, block ads that do not pay much, or filter out other sites of your choice. By doing this you will help deliver targeted ads with higher pay per clicks. If you search on Google for competitive ad filter lists, you will find some prebuilt lists that you just have to copy and paste into your AdSense. Quick and easy.

By following these tips that I have given above, you will definitely have an advantage when it comes to earning money with Google AdSense. Just keep testing and have a lot of patience because it will all pay off in the end. Please share this post if you find it helpful and be sure to subscribe to TechSlip!

How Do People Find Your Site?

2010-09-08T05:34:00.001-07:00

•by keyword search on search engines

SE traffic and directory listings are partially profitable for AdSense participants. They mix targeted traffic and bystanders, thus, although not all traffic sent to your page will be “productive”, there'll still be some visitors interested to click on your ads.

•by coming across links on pages/sites that are related to your theme. These are likely to bring mostly targeted traffic.

So, make your site findable by:
•keyword optimization, good Meta description tag, title tag, header tags, optimized ALT tags applied to images (on-page SEO techniques)

•link building (off-page SEO technique) — you benefit doubly from this: more people are likely to find you more easily on other sites and you get higher PR (Google™'s PR algorithm takes into account a site's link popularity, on condition they are relevant links) obtaining thus better SERP positioning.

Attracting Targeted Traffic

2010-09-08T05:15:00.000-07:00

On one hand, you have to get visitors to your site, on the other hand you have to keep them there if you want some clicks. Ways to increase targeted traffic:

1.Provide good, relevant content, keep your visitor interested. Maintaining high targeted traffic means not adding just anything to your web site, but focus on your particular niche of interest. Update frequently, give readers reasons to come back.

2.Promoting your site by means of a PPC program (AdWords and Overture) is probably the most effective way to increase targeted traffic. You benefit twice: visitors who come on your site are really interested in the subject you deal with, besides, they are "pre-qualified clickers" -- there is the theory according to which visitors coming thru a click will leave also by clicking on an ad.
However to be profitable and efficient, this must be done scientifically. Read on to find out how to combine AdWords and AdSense.

3.A functional site will serve you right. When a visitor sees at a glance the whole mechanism and has a clear image of what he can find and how, it's for sure an invitation to navigate through your site. This is a great way to increase the number of impressions.
Good design and functionality include:

◦an uncomplicated homepage, relevant for the site. Your homepage is your visiting card. Learn to make your site more appealing by using your homepage; for example, put a blurb here whenever you add something new.

◦the site is easy to navigate

◦the text is easily readable by its format — paragraphs, bolds attracting attention

◦easily findable information

◦pages load easily

◦put a menu of links on each page and pay a great deal of attention at the links labeling. A good choice of words will entice your readers to click on the links you want them to — the ones with the highest paying potential. (words like “free” or “download” are still good “charmers”)

4.Contribute to forums and blogs. Popularize your work widely, highlighting the benefits it offers to the reader.

5.Write free short articles demonstrating you have something valuable to say and create the opportunity to place links to your site.

6.Use RSS feeds to attract new visitors to your site. You can promote your work by sharing headlines and articles with other sites.

7.Create your own affiliate program or participate in advertising programs such as AdWords or Overture. Place your ads on sites and pay a comission to webmasters according to your agreement (payment can be Pay Per Click, Pay Per Sale, Pay Per Lead).

8.Other techniques used to attract visitors, such as giving away free stuff (downloads, coupons, discounts), running contests and promoting them might work, but not to an extraordinary extent, in as far as CTR improvement is concerned.

9.The idea of granting awards for excellent sites in your niche seems a good one, for it will bring you not only links but it will work wonders for your image: establishing you as an expert and building credibility.

How to Increase Targeted Traffic

2010-09-08T05:13:00.000-07:00

If you know how to increase targeted traffic of your site that means you know how to make money with your work. For websites participating in AdSense the goal is to increase targeted traffic. Targetting traffic is far more valuable than just getting high traffic. Visitors who reach your site not just by accident, and who are really interested in the topic you're dealing with, will probably search further and are more likely to click on your ads.

Yet, really high traffic can be of use to AdSense participants. It will add to the number of ad impressions. Then think, for example, of Googles AdSense Premium Service: sites that have a really high number of visitors benefit from a priviledged treatment from Google.

Earning from Blogging

2009-09-21T08:09:00.000-07:00

If you have a blog, chances are you earn money from it via advertising through banner ads or contextual ads. But if you are so fond of blogging, you can expand your earning opportunities by writing for blogs and getting paid for your blogging.

There are several blog-for-pay venues that you can consider joining:

Blogit.com = readers pay a subscription fee to read blogs, and this fee is divided among the writers the subscriber reads. The more readers the blog writer attracts, the greater the income for the writer.

Pay per Post = this works more as paid advertising copy. Instead of the blogger writing a review about products or services unencumbered, the blogger responds to what is called "opportunities" which are requests for writeups from advertisers. An example is the request for 40-word writeup designed to create buzz for an online children's apparel website - and the fee is $2.50 -- such a paltry sum for blatant paid ad placement.

Weblogs Inc = this works more like a paid position, where you apply to blog for one of the company's blogs (mostly tech and Internet focused)

Marqui's Pay Bloggers Program = again, this acts like paid endorsement where you will be paid $800 per month to make a "textual mention (with URL link) about Marqui and its Service on your blog four times a month." An additional $50 will be paid for every qualified lead you send their way.

If you don't mind endorsing some companies or services, not because you think there are well worth endorsing, but because you were paid to do so, then you can consider several of the above opportunities.

What is best alternatives of Adsense

2009-09-21T08:01:00.000-07:00

If you ask me what is the best alternative to Google AdSense? From my experience I will say there is no alternative to AdSense. AdSense is the best contextual ad network from which publishers can earn lots of money online. But it is not easy to get approved AdSense application. Sometime your AdSense account may get banned due to several reasons. Maximum AdSense accounts are banned due to invalid clicks or self clicks. Actually publishers are too much hurry to earn money. They should remember AdSense is not a quick rich program. Once AdSense account is banned it is difficult to get back. So how you can monetize your website or blog after being denied or being banned from AdSense. What is the best alternative to AdSense? I have already discussed about amazon associates in my previous post. Here I will put down my experience with other Ad networks I joined just for testing.

Adbrite: Adbrite is effective and powerful way to make money by selling space in your website or blog. It enables you to sell your space through “your Ad Here” link. They share revenue 75:25 in your favor. You can set your own Text ads on a CPC basis (cost per click), that is you earn for each click received on an ad. Banner ads are paid out on a CPM basis (cost per thousand impressions). An impression is the number of times an ad is displayed therefore you earn for every 1000 views on a banner ad. Full page ads, on the other hand are paid out on a CPV basis (cost per view) thus you earn per each view of a full page ad. All network ads (CPM, CPV and CPC ads) are auctioned-based. This means advertisers bid on how much they are willing to pay per click or per view, so you don't need to set any pricing. Network ads are paid out at a rate of 1 cent above the second highest bid. When there is no competition to appear on your site, payment will be made on base rate.

Bidvertiser

Bidvertiser is another popular ad network company alternative to Google AdSense. It has some useful features such as free design, earning through referrals, instant selling space through “Advertise on this site” when ads are not available. Pay out is just $10 through Paypal. One important feature is you can deny low paying ads being appeared in your site. BidVertiser gives you a simple point-and-click tool to help you customize the layout of the ads to fit your site's look and feel, in order to retain the high quality of your website.You can use the Publisher Center to generate detailed online reports to monitor your ads performance, including the number of page impressions, clicks, click-through rate, and the total amount you've earned.

Chitika;

Chitika ads is a powerful and appropriate for any website with any type of content including automotive, finance, health, gadgets and electronics, news, sports, travel, etc. If your website gets a lot of U.S. traffic, then Chitika Premium ads are a perfect match for you. Its eMiniMalls are the industry's first and only intelligent and interactive product merchandising service. eMiniMalls present Web publishers with a feature rich service that offers online product merchandising, a dynamic recommendation engine and robust comparative shopping information in one solution. They are a way to supplement your existing ad revenue while providing a completely new revenue stream through interactive merchandising. You may refer any publisher from your website, who does not already have a Chitika account. Please keep in mind; all referrals (new applicants) are subject to approval before they can begin displaying Chitika's eMiniMalls. Chitika offers two payment options: Paypal payments and payments by Check. Your account needs to accumulate the minimum amount of $10.00 for Paypal and $50.00 for checks.

Yahoo Publisher:

Yahoo Publisher is leading and powerful advertising program. I would say it is excellent alternative to Google AdSense. But at present in most cases they are not responsive. They display ads related to content of your website like AdSense and earn money for valid clicks. You can monetize your website by displaying One of the best advantage is that it is compatible with contextual advertising . It also give your site a aesthetic look. For joining TLA you must have adequeate traffic for your website.

Blogging With Emotion

2009-09-15T08:32:00.000-07:00

Sometimes the best writing lessons you can learn as both a freelance writer and a freelance blogger are the ones that you learn by accident. This was the case for a recent lesson I've learned, and one that even in a short time is paying off dividends. The writing lesson in this case is simple: don't be afraid to blog with emotion.

Granted, if you are always writing blog posts that ramble incoherently and jump from place to place or point to point then there are more important things than writing with emotion. That being said, as writers many of us are used to having to write point by point articles that can often be described as being very cookie cutter. While having some stability is a good thing - after all you want to be viewed as an expert, but once in a while if you become really passionate about something, don't be afraid to speak out.

Sometimes a blog can seem stale, and that bit of emotion can jump start everything. Maybe that's not even a problem. A change of pace is always a good thing, and if you're normal blogging voice is measured and calm, a little bit of fire to spice things up could not only gain the attention of your current readers, but also snag many new ones.

One of the most successful blog posts I've ever had is a very recent one where I "threw down the gauntlet." This has led to more subscribers, more Twitter followers, a huge jump in reads, and the most comments of any individual post by far (over double and still counting). All that from letting a little emotion in.

There is a difference between letting in a little fire, and being crude. But if you have a little bit of emotion and passion for a post, go ahead and put it up. You might be surprised at the results.

If you would like to learn more about blogging with emotion, please feel free to visit my blog for more information on this topic, as well as general freelance writing information. All this can be found at my Master Dayton freelance writing blog.

How to Start Your First Money Making Blog

2009-09-15T08:30:00.001-07:00

Here you are with questions in your mind:

How do I start blogging?

How do I set up a blogging site?

How to make money blogging?

Starting blogging for money is actually simpler than you might think. Head on to free blog sites such as blogger.com or wordpress.com and open up a free account. That's all - you are in a making money blogging business. You don't have to be technically savvy or even know HTML, blogging sites are extremely easy to use. Make sure you'll start writing about subjects you like - gardening, golfing, vacations - whatever is your passion. Writing about your passion or hobby is a good way to get your hands wet, so to speak. You do want to get experience on how to write posts, and see what makes your blog's visitors to come back and leave comments. Is it a new idea how to arrange garden in backyard, or what makes a powerful golf swing?

Now, how do you start making money with blogs? Writing is fun, but where is money? The easiest way to make money with blogs is to publish advertisements from ad networks such as Google AdSense or Yahoo Publishers Network. What you need to do is to plug their ad code into your blog and, vola, everything else is done automatically. Relevant ads are served by ad networks to your blog and whenever visitor clicks on the ad, you'll get paid. It's hard to say how much you'll get paid per click (it depends on a market you choose), but expect 5 cents and up per click. In very competitive markets, such as beauty, clicks come at a premium price of 25 cents and more.

Important thing to consider before you'll decide to make money blogging is whether you want to use free blogging services or open a web hosing account and host your blogs there. My recommendation is to host blogs on your own hosting account. That way you have more control over blogs and you don't have to think about your blog being suddenly dropped out. Yes, it does happen with free services, and it may take a long time to restore your blog business.

Additionally, you are limited to what you can do with your blogs while using free hosting such as blogger.com. That's why I definitely recommend going with paid web hosting and having a complete control over your money making blogs. Your business should be in your hands.
