Making money with Adsense

AdSense is a affiliate program made by Google. AdSense and Click bank are the most popular affiliate programs on the Internet. AdSense lets you place banners or text ads on your website and every time a visitor clicks on your add you will earn some money. The money you earn always depends on the ad and on the advertiser of the ad. Also if you really want to make lots of money using AdSense I would advise you to choose a in demand niche on the market. As an example lets say you have a website about ebooks, everyone knows that ebooks are very popular at the moment so when someone clicks on you Google AdSense ad you will earn more than having a website with a un-popular niche.
You will mostly earn between 2 cent to 15 dollars per click. And very rare you will earn more. But don't forget it mostly depends on the advertiser of the ad on how much money you will get.

Thanks to Google you will be able to put the ads any were on your website and just wait until the money rolls in, but its not that easy as you think. Don't forget that your website needs something that will attract visitors to your website. Google AdSense also converts there ads to ads related to your web site. So lets say you have a website about video games the ads or banners will automatically adjust themselves to ads something related to video games, Yes that's how smart Google AdSense is.

There are also rules made by Google that you should always follow, if you don't follow these rules there will be a chance that Google will ban you and if that happens you can wave your money goodbye.

1.Do not change the AdSense html code you receive for you're ads

2.You are only allowed to place 3 ad units per page.

3.Never ask anybody to click on your ads and never click on your own ads.

4.Don't put ads on pornographic web sites.

These are ways on how to increase people clicking on your ads.

1.Placing ads close to images attract more attention.

2.Make sure the ads blend with the website or web page.

3.The best performing ads are the 336x280 large rectangle, 300x250 medium rectangle, or 160x600 wide skyscraper.

4.The more content on your website the better focused ads you will get.

5.Using AdWords will increase traffic, so that means more clicks.



How Earnings are Calculated- Earnings are involved in many factors like page rank, hits, inbound links. Google AdSense also calculates how many clicks you get, and they also check how many people have stayed on the site of the ad for more than 30 seconds.You will get your earned money every month. Also the minimum payout is 100$. So if you don't make 100$ per month the amount of money you've made will go further to next month. So let's say you've made 50$ in one month, you will not get paid, but the next month you will start of at 50$ until you make 100$.



Ad Appearance- Ad appearance's are vital on websites or blogs because If your ad doesn't have the right appearance nobody will want to click it. After Lot's of research I've found out that ads that blend into the web page often perform better because visitors think that the ads are part of the website. Also don't forget to choose the right colour for your ad's.



Knowing the ads- Everyone knows not to click on their own ads, but you can always type the URL of the ad and go and visit the site. This way You will get to know the site better and you will get to know which products they are selling?Is it a good interesting product? Would I want to buy the product If I was a visitor?All this information helps you and your website and you also get to know about your ads. If you don't like the ads, or if you think the ads won't attract enough click's you can always change the key words to get different ads for your site and see if that helps.



AdSense Analytics- All the people who use AdSense should always keep an eye on the web analytics and should always try to improve their earning. When you've noticed that a particular ad has a higher click pay out, or attracts more interest try to create more pages that will show the same ad on your website.
