"5 Surefire Ways to Increase Google Adsense Earnings" by Mal Keenan Internet Marketing, Web Design, Programming, Search Engine Optimization, & SEO Articles brought to you by www.Site-Reference.com

Ever since the Google grand slam on affiliate marketing which basically paralyzes a lot of landing pages and their subsequent “commitment” to ensure that surfers and adwords advertisers have “good” experience using google by forcing up to 10x times the cost of per click (my personal experience is 16.18 per click), a lot of marketers is forced to relook at their marketing channel. In addition, there is this big sue against google for click fraud which google paid a small token somewhat in millions as settlement and after which they have been banning websites that are close to earning their first $100 which includes me. Google have been merciless in their position as attested by the number of complaints in adsense help forum.

Further verified by the latest book titled the death of adsense, it is time to relook at the method of revenue generation of websites. For newbies, the common terms are,

Impressions - The number of impressions is the number of times an ad is displayed.

CTR - Clickthrough rate (CTR) is the number of clicks your ad receives divided by the number of times your ad is shown (impressions).

PPC - The pay-per-click is the amount you pay each time a user clicks on your ad

PPA - Pay per Acquisition or Cost per sales

PPM - Pay per thousand impressions

PPV - Pay per Visitor

Yahoo Publisher Network (YPN)

PPC. Saying is that YPN earning per click is up to 4x times that of Google Adsense but YPN click-through rate is much lower. It is still its better stage and is only available in US. But will certainly be my on A * list soon. (For US residents only now.)

Azoogle

PPA. Since 2000, online marketers have depended on the AzoogleAds? Network to deliver targeted and un-targeted customers from a variety of websites, search portals and newsletters. Ranked #1 by 30,000 media experts for 2004 and 2005 and looks promising. Percentage rate varies. Recommended.

Amazon Omakase

PPA. As an Amazon associate, you can now serve ads to your site based on the content on your pages. What’s more, this service is totally compatible with AdSense. Unlike other ad program, Amazon only pays you when some one buys usually at a percent between 4 to 8.5 which means rather huge if the user buys a thousand dollar plasma TV screen.

AdBrite

PPC or Flat-Rate. 2 type of ads available. Text Ads and Interstitial ads and is based on bidders getting your website. Free form text ads that give you more control over their appearance than AdSense. Also displayed with no “Ads by xxxxx” text. Excellent service. No exlusivity required.

Affiliate Sensor

PPA. This service automatically allows you to display ads from Click bank’s large member network. Click Bank is the Internet’s largest digital marketplace, where thousands of the web’s most popular products are sold every day. Some formatting issues when selecting certain ad sizes but overall cool. Recommended. Usually one sale is a minimum of $20.

Bidvertiser

PPC - Definitely one of the major players which will allows you to set your own price and advertisers or have everything automated, just like AdSense. $10 minimum payouts through PayPal. Recommended.

Clicksor

PPC, PPM, PPV. - Fixed rate for Advertisers. 70% profit share from displaying our contextual ads and able to earn up to 85% ad revenues for displaying your own ads under the affiliate programs. Additional 10% from the daily earning of Publishers referred. Check (min. payout: $50), or Paypal (min. payout: $20).Only seems to accept sites with a large amount of traffic, at least 50% of which must come from Canada, USA and UK. However, a search in google (ironic, isnt’t it) shows Clicksor being called as fraud, much like Google itself.

Commission Junction

PPA. Using CJ’s smart zones you can display rotating advertisements. Generally used for image ads rather than text ads and sells both physical and electronic products.

Direct Link Ads

Trying to be a competitor to Text Link Ads but is very confusing, not very user friendly and don’t really explain what they do or how they do it.

Do you want to make more money in your home business. If you sell stuff online one program that does pay pretty good, is easy to implement, and pays on time is Google Adsense.

In this article we will look at how to make more money than you currently are and how to do it with Google’s pay per click advertising program.

1. First of all you need to read the program policies and procedures. Google is very strict as to what they will and will not allow you to for more details visit to www.instant-adsense-dollars.com do when you are placing ads on your website. Be sure and do it right the first time and save you grief down the road.

2. Locate your ads in the hot spot of your website. This means above the fold and as close to the upper left hand corner as possible. The reason is very simple. To get people to click on your ads they need to be seen.

3. Use the rectangle 336 X 280 ad in your premium spot. This is the most popular ad and will earn you the most money.

4. To make more money everyday with Google you want to limit the number of Google Adsense ads to 3 or less per page. The more ads you have on a page the less they begin to pay. It benefits both you and Google to have the highest paying ads showing up on your page.

5. You want to blend your ads into the page. People have become blind to ads on the internet. They just do not care about them. By blending your ads into the page you’ve a better chance to get them clicked on. This may mean using a white border.

6. When you surf the internet what color are you used to seeing links. Blue! Keep your links blue and people will be more apt to naturally click on them because that is what they are clicking on all day long.

7. Google offers some really neat features for tracking and one of them is channels. If you have more than one ad unit per page, for more details visit to www.google-atm-machine.com you can set up a channel for each unit. Again you are better off to stay at less than 3 ads per page. Channels let you know what ads are working best.

8. Check your stats periodically. You want to see your click through rate and your cost per click. By knowing how many visitors it takes to get a click and how much you are making per click you can decide if having a Google Ad on that page is worth it or not.

9. Make sure the ads that are coming up are relevant to the page. If not consider if you have content that is bad, or if your meta tags are set up wrong. Maybe even your header graphic has a bad alt tag.

Google Adsense is definitely one way to make more money everyday on the internet. If you do it right it can help your business as well.

Making money with Pay Per Click advertising is not just limited to Google. I wanted to quickly mention that many ppc companies have affiliate programs that pay you for placing ads on your site.

Some of the more popular ones include Bidvertiser, 7Search, SearchFeed, and Yahoo Marketing. Each one have their own rules and regulations so be sure and know them before you go placing ads on your site. Google themselves will not let you place similar ads on a page with their ads so be careful. The fastest and easiest way to make money online is to get paid for a click. This article should give you some ideas on how to do that.

A very good and very easy way to make money online is by having contextual ads on your website. Contextual ads are ads that you get from a site that offers them, usually in a unit of four ads or more in different orientations. Once you have put the code for these units on your website the company offering the ad unit reads your site and show ads that are relevant to your site. Whenever someone clicks one of those ads you get paid for it. The amount you get paid varies depending on how much the advertiser paid to have their ad shown.

There are lots of sites that offer contextual ads for your website. Adbrite, Bidvertiser, Yahoo Publisher, RevenuePilot and FeedFusion are just a few of what’s out there. But the king of them all, the one that started the whole market is Google Adsense. Even though most of the others have a lower payout amount and the conditions for having your website approved to show the ads aren’t as strict, Google Adsense is still the most sought after of all the contextual ads sites by website owners.

The reasons for this is, one, Google Adsense was the first to offer this opportunity and so has been around longer. As such Google Adsense is more familiar to people. Another reason is they have a whole lot more advertisers they the other contextual ad sites and is able to offer relevant ads to a wider verity of websites where as the other sites may be limited in the verity relevant ads they can offer to some niche sites.

The number one reason Google Adsense is the most sought after contextual ad company by website owners is because they can pay more per ad click then the others can. Advertisers are willing to pay more to have their ads on Google Adsense ad units and Google passes some of that money down to website owners.

The best way to make money online using Google Adsense is to build a niche website around a high paying keyword or keyphrase. If you build a site around a keyword that pays you $1 or $2 dollars and you can average say ten clicks a day that’s $10 or $20 a day that’s $70 or $140 a week and $280 or $560 extra cash a month. Now build 10 or 20 more of these sites around other high paying keywords and you can see how this can be a very lucrative way to make money online using Google Adsense.

These days, it comes as no surprise that nearly every online company has attempted to do keyword marketing or “pay-per-click” campaign on either Google Adwords or Yahoo Search Marketing. The alarming statistic is how many small business owners have stopped their “pay-per-click” or cut way back because they are unable to make enough sales to cover the ever rising costs per keyword.

Looking at Google’s stock price, it’s obvious that keyword marketing can and does payoff for a large number of companies. The problem is most don’t have the knowledge or expertise to make keyword marketing convert at a rate that allows them to continue using the service, much less expanding on it. So they end up throwing a bunch of money to be #1 for a week or a month for an ultra competitive keyword only to end up spending a ton of money and not having many customers to show for it.

Everyday I talk to new and prospective customers who are looking for professional help doing a keyword campaign that have all made the same 4 mistakes . If you avoid these 4 simple mistakes, you will be on your way to mastering Google Adwords and AdSense.

First - Stop Bidding on the Wrong Keywords

Most people I talk to ended up bidding on keywords that aren’t relevant to their site. As a surfer, there is nothing more annoying than doing a search, clicking on a link, and not finding what you’re looking for. If you have an online store that only sells “oak furniture”, don’t waste your money and surfers time bidding on “pine furniture” and “mahogany furniture” just because they are similar and the Google keyword wizard recommends them to you. Focus on what you have and get creative. Try buying “oak chair” and “oak table” and other relevant keywords that describe what you sell.

Second - Don’t be the Number One Keyword Listing

So many keyword campaigns I get handed have the site owner paying out the nose to be #1 for a high quality keyword. I’m not sure if it’s just in our nature to be at the top or what, but in “pay-per-click” you should ideally be around the 3rd postion. I consider the top spot to be the “Kill Zone” because all the lookee-loo’s will absolutely kill your conversion rate. So instead of paying $1.25 or $4.00 to be in the top spot, just throttle back and pay about half of what the top spot person is paying to have everyone look at their site but not not buy anything. If you move back, but still stay on the 1st page you will lower your “per-click” cost which will give you more margin. With the money you save, use it to bid on other keyword phrases to make up for volume loss.

Third - Add the Keyword Tracking Code

Google Adwords and Yahoo Search Marketing provide a snippet of code that you need to put on your site. Why? It will tell you exactly what you are spending on each keyword and when you get a sale from that keyword. It is flat out a must have if you’re going to be spending any kind of money on paid search.

Let me show you an example: You spend $1,000 in the month of July on 64 different keywords on Google at an average of $0.25 per keyword that nets you 4,000 unique visitors. You also get 125 sales and make $1,250 in profit. All you really know is that you made more than you spent on marketing.

If you use the tracking code, you would also see a correlation of sales by keyword. So, you can discover which keywords are profitable and which aren’t converting. With this additional knowledge, you can spend more on converting keywords and increase margin by avoiding dead keywords.

Fourth - Use Google Adsense to Sell Your Traffic

Since you probably won’t be converting every potential customer that clicks on your Google Adword banner, you can offset your costs by selling them. Google Adsense determines relevant Adword banners to show on your site based on the predominant keywords per page.

If a visitor to your site determines they don’t want to buy what you have, they may see a relevant Adsense banner and click on it. Google Adsense pays you for every click-thru from your site. Here’s an example of how Adsense will reduce your advertising costs: You get 1,534 visitors to your site in a month. Of the 1,534 visitors, you receive a 2.28% click rate (35 clicks) on your Adsense. Google then determines an eCPM (per 1,000 impressions) rate, which in this case is $10.48. You would receive $16.08 in Google Adsense revenue.

Google Adsense will really start to pay off once you get organic search engine traffic. It also works really well for subscription based sites or similar sites that have returning customers.

Google Adwords and Google Adsense Help

There are many ways that you can benefit from both Google Adwords and Google Adsense. For most web site owners, it just takes an initial setup to understand how it all flows. If you are struggling to setup or manage your Google Adwords or Adsense campaign find a reputable Traffic Optimization company to do this for you. The rates for these services are surprisingly affordable and will save you a lot of time, money, and frustration.

Contextual ads are ads that you get from a site that offers them, usually in a unit of four ads or more in different orientations.
