Ad Sensing

Does anyone used Google Adsence? Please provide the information about it does it really works and Can we earn from it?

In terms of earning money on Adsense, your mileage varies. One website with the 10,000 uniques a day can earn $50 a month while another may earn $5,000. It is not easy to predict how much you will earn from Adsense. The only way you can learn about how your site will perform with Adsense is through trying it.

The amount you can earn will depend on the

1. Responsiveness of audience to the ads = A travel website that provides information on travel to Spain will attract visitors looking for ways to arrange their travel and spend money on their vacation to Spain. Your site provides the info, but the ads will provide hotels, travel agencies, tourist destinations, car rentals — ads that are likely to get the attention of the users of your site. This is a site that will most likely do well with Adsense. However, if you are a gaming website where the main purpose of the user is to play games on your site, then Adsense will not perform as well.

2. Ad format = some types of ads do better than others depending on your content and layout. In our case, large rectangles in the middle of the content is the best, while leaderboards do not generate as much as income. Skys are the worst for us. Experiment and measure the results via channels and see which formats work best for you.

3. Ad placement – check Google’s heat map as they have tested where the best placements are https://www.google.com/support/adsense/bin/answer.py?answer=17954&ctx=en:search&query=adsense+heat+map&topic=0&type=f

4. Ad colors – sometimes ads blended into the content works wonders, but sometimes ads that contrast your site colors work best

5. Number of ad units on a page = we are allowed maximum of 3 ads + 1 ad links + 1 search box on a page. Maximize the allowed number based on the resulting look of your page (you don’t want an overkill of ads). Users going to your page and reading your content may ignore the banner or rectangle at the top of the page, but may click on the ad at the bottom of the article

6. Smartpricing – the big unknown in Adsense. No one knows how this actually works. But it can affect the pricing of the ads on your site. If the advertiser paid for $0.50/click – but your site is smartpriced – then the cost may be discounted lower (e.g. $0.25). So you may try to develop a site based on high paying keywords but if smartpricing gets to you, then you may not get as much per click as what you are expecting from your keywords.

Here is Google’s explanation of smart pricing https://adwords.google.com/support/bin/answer.py?answer=9562&query=smart+pricing&topic=0&type=f

Google’s smart pricing feature automatically adjusts the cost of a keyword-targeted content click based on its effectiveness compared to a search click. So if our data shows that a click from a content page is less likely to turn into actionable business results — such as online sales, registrations, phone calls, or newsletter signups — we reduce the price you pay for that click.

Experiment with the factors above (except smartpricing, which you can’t control), and see which combination works best. Remember though that not all sites do well with Adsense – even if you get gazillions of traffic but your visitors are not interested in looking for ways to spend their money, they won’t be interested in your ads and won’t click.

How much can i earn from adsense in a month with at least 500 hits per day?

In terms of earning money on Adsense, your mileage varies. One website with 10,000 uniques a day can earn $50 a month while another may earn $5,000. Or a site that receives 500 uniques can earn anywhere from $10 to $1000 or more per month. It is not easy to predict how much you will earn from Adsense. The only way you can learn about how your site will perform with Adsense is through trying it.

I love the google adsense income opportunity. I have a cooking site with google ads but have not made much. I avg. $10 a month. I want to do this full time but have a hard time trying to figure what subject or niches to target. Seems like the market is saturated with the same subjects and niches. Need to get started but don’t know where to begin. I am living money on the table not doing this business. "Help"!

My cooking site: http://www.cookingfanatics.com

The best topics with Adsense are those topics where the people actually want to spend money on the site — e.g. mortgage topic where the visitors are looking for tips on getting a mortgage and the ads are from mortgage companies; business planning site where the site talks about how to create a business plan and visitors are highly interested on business plan software and writing services; product review sites where people are actively researching to buy something such as electronics.

I went to your site and saw that you only have Adsense ads on the recipe pages, not in the homepage or in the main topic pages.

How many are earning money from google adsense?

To earn with Google AdSense you have to put AdSense ad code on your website and AdSense will show relevant ad Ads on your Website and whenever any visitor clicks on that ad you earn money. Pay per click ad can make you earn from $0.01 to as much as $ 10 + per ad click. Earnings per click depend upon many different reasons like how popular or competitive that keyword is and in which country that ad is shown. You can learn more things about Google Adsense from these websites :

I want to know what is earning more money on websites than Adsense ads and get some proof of earnings.

It depends on the website. In my case, Adsense is by far the BEST. The main authority website in my niche uses (Entrepreneur.com) Intellxt though, and Intellxt uses them as their main lure to attract us to Intellxt saying they make a lot of money from the program

I have yet to find a website that claims they make more money from alternative contextual ad networks such as Adbrite who have not been kicked out of Adsense. I’ve seen very few people who says they make better with Yahoo Publishers Network.

Get proof of earnings? Unless that person is running a blog or selling you an ebook promoting their "guru" status, they will not show you proof of earnings. But here’s someone who made millions from Adsense http://plentyoffish.wordpress.com/2006/06/07/small-companies-google-adsense-is-the-future/ (I have yet to see someone claim to make a million from the other ad networks)

The best way is to find what Adsense alternative works for you by applying to the various ad networks and see which one works best.

I know it is difficult to answer, but a ballpark figure is all I am looking for. I have an educational webpage with teacher resources and am thinking of signing up for adsense.

You don’t need multiple websites to earn $4,000 a month with Adsense. For a long time, I earned more than $4000 with only one website. It all depends how well your website fits with Adsense

Have you had any experience with any of the above and what degree of success was achieved? Which would you recommend and why?

Are there any others out there worth mentioning, why and which?

I’m just looking for an opportunity to making a little extra money to help with the rising cost of living.

Thanks in advanvce.

Well there are lots of scams there and I did try out many "paid programs" and ended up getting scammed. I got so angry that I left looking for any more opportunities. Then I came across people saying that they are getting paid for online programs and once again I started researching and I am happy to say that I have earned $15.09 from http://www.mylot.com/?ref=vampirestonez. It is a legit site and I can guarantee it because I have gotten paid from that and if you wish you can ask me for more details. It is very easy to use as it, it is a forum like Yahoo Answers but unlike Yahoo Answers you get paid for asking and answering questions! Yes, it may sound too good to be true but I can only say that try it, you have nothing to lose and I am sure you will thank me for this.

But if you do register at that site then you will also need to have an E-gold account because all your payments will be transferred there and then there are number of option to get the payments like check, money order, bank wire, western union etc. To register for E-gold please visit http://www.e-gold.com/e-gold.asp?cid=3956994.

I had been using Yahoo Answers for a long time as you can see my level but I now use it very rarely because as you may know that the more traffic to a site, the more the site earns. Yahoo Answers earns a lot but does not share anything with it’s users as for myLot, they do! If you have any questions just leave me a message here or on myLot and I will personally try my level best to guide you to the way to getting some decent income. Thanks!

I have a domain name registered with Dreamhost. I am currently waiting for it to become available for transfer (60days) so I can transfer it to GoDaddy. I’m planning on starting a blog and earning a little money from Google AdSense. What can I do to get people to recognize my blog name and prepare it for the release date?

Start writing content that optimizes the search engines by using not too competitive keywords.

I’ve just started a blog and I’m earning money here n there with google adsense. I’ve reached over 100 dollars but google hasnt sent me a check or anything. I was wondering when will i get my money? and how, through mail?

you have to set up and validate a form of payment on your adsense account. at the end of the month google will audit your sites productivity and finalize the earnings usually by the 10th of the next month. after your earnings are finalized then google will process the payment.
