Google Adsense and Blogs
If you have a blog, or
are thinking about starting a blog, then you are definitely going to want
to read this article. It’s all about how to line your pockets with money
that’s just waiting to be made without working much harder than you
already are.
No only are blogs the hottest thing on the ‘net right now, but they are
custom-made for Google’s AdSense program. Why? It’s simple. Blogs
represent constantly changing and fresh content to Google’s search engine
spiders. Feeding fresh content to those little spiders is just like
tossing raw meat to a tiger. They just gobble it up. The more pages of
your blog that get indexed, the more traffic you get. And the more traffic
you get, the more exposure your AdSense ads get. Are you beginning to see
where I’m heading here?
It’s not just Google that loves new content, all of the major engines do.
In fact, some web-savvy bloggers are testing Google ads on one page and
Overture ads on the other. It doesn’t take too long to see which ads are
doing the best when you have nearly side-by-side comparison statistics to
look at. Just don’t make the mistake of putting Google and Overture ads on
the same page together. While they won’t kill each other like a pair of
Siamese fighting fish in the same bowel will, you will be violating both
sites’ Terms of Service, and it isn’t worth killing the goose (geese) that
laid the golden egg.
It’s a snap to set up Google AdSense ads on your blog. Everything you need
to know is right inside of the Google control panel. What’s not so easy is
figuring out what ads are going to appear on each page. Since Google
targets your key words, and your blog articles could possible wander
towards any subject, you never know what you’re going to get.
Well, “never” is a strong word because there actually IS a way to pre-test
your blog’s ads before you post your newest edition. Here’s what you do:
• Write your blog article like you normally would
• Plug in your AdSense code and then post your newest page to a sub
directory that’s not part of your blog.
• Click refresh a few times until Google wakes up and starts sending ads.
• If you don’t like what you see then fine-tune the article until you see
the types of ads that you’re looking for.
With some ads paying as much as $5 per click or more, I’d certainly spend
an extra 30 minutes or so tweaking my blog. That’s for sure.
If you’re working hard to get your blog in front of visiting eyeballs,
then it doesn’t make any sense at NOT to be using Google AdSense to draw
every penny out of your site that’s possible. OK, that’s the end of the
article. Now get busy tweaking your blog and checking your ads. You’ve got
money waiting to be made!
