Introducing Your Opportunity to Help Yourself & Others Get a Slice of Google’s $8 Billion Revenue Pie!



That’s right, I’m going to reveal how you can make a killing online helping people quickly and easily maximize their AdSense earnings.



But, before I do, I want to make sure that we all fully understand AdSense.



AdSense is a program from Google that anyone can use to generate advertising revenue on their website – even while they sleep.



An AdSense business is perfect for people who don’t have the time to run a regular Internet business because they work full time or want to spend more time with their family or on vacation.



There are many differences between AdSense and a regular Internet business but the most important are, with an AdSense business:



· You do not have to sell anything and deal with customer complaints, payment processing, refunds, etc.

· You do not have to spend hours and hours trying to contact potential JV partners or deal with the frustration of rejection 99% of time, if not almost 100% of time

· You do not have risk all the paid upfront money that’s involved in creating your own products, which usually includes paying a writer, a graphic designer and copywriters – without any guarantee that your product will sell at all

· You do not have to spend days searching for your niche just to find out that almost all niches are already taken

· And much more

Here’s how an AdSense business works:



Once accepted into the AdSense program, Google places ads from its advertisers on pages of your website. All the ads Google places on a page are related to the content on that page. For example, if you have a page on debt consolidation, Google will only place debt-consolidation related ads there.



This policy is a great deal because relevant ads not only improve a person’s CPC and CPM volume, but they also help maintain the integrity of a site by keeping the content uniform.



Once the ads have been placed, when a visitor to a site clicks on one, the site owner earns money from Google. Site owners can also earn money from cost-per-1000-impressions (CPM) ads that pay to advertise on your site.



According to Google, that’s all there is to it … but, of course, if a person really wants to make huge profits with AdSense there is much more to it than that.



And this is where you come in!





Now You’ll Be Able to Offer Other Marketers a Solution to Some Very Common AdSense Obstacles That Most

People Simply Aren’t Able to Overcome …



You see, earning big money through Google AdSense has traditionally been very difficult for users for a number of reasons, including:



Setting up an AdSense-optimized website takes design, coding and copywriting skills that most people just don’t have
Paying an expert to set up a Google AdSense-optimized website can cost a great deal of money
Even if you have the design, coding and copywriting skills, setting up an AdSense-optimized website takes a lot of time and effort
Most of the short-cuts, insider strategies and secrets revealed by the so-called “AdSense Gurus” simply DON’T WORK
Plus, most people never grasp the importance good, high-quality website content plays in achieving true AdSense riches
But now you’ll be able to help these marketers overcome these obstacles through your very own AdSense Templates membership site.



That’s right, you can now have your own complete AdSense Templates membership site and you won’t even have to worry about creating the templates!



What could be easy or better than that?



You get your very own highly profitable business where you don’t have to do any of the “real work” (i.e. the product creation) and you get to keep 100% of the profits you’ll make by selling $47* regular memberships to your site!

Overview Of This Report
This report is split into an introduction and 7 lessons, to make it easier to digest the
information. You can read it all at once or split over a few days.
Introduction To Adsense
Just incase you are new to Adsense we will briefly go over some of it's finer points.
Adsense delivers relevant text and image ads that are precisely targeted to your site
content. Every time someone sees an ad on your site and clicks on it you will make
money. Sometimes it's only a few cents. Sometimes it's a few dollars. It all depends
on the individual ad.
Adsense is considered a very powerful tool to many website owners. If you go to
most any website these days you will see Adsense ad blocks incorporated
somewhere on the page. Did you know that there are many people that make a full
time living from Adsense alone?
Adsense makes it pretty easy for you to start earning revenue from every page on
your website almost instantly. "If you can copy and paste you can put Adsense on
your website". As with any good tool Adsense has the power to help you generate a
very nice income when it's used properly.
Let's start off by taking the time to get to know Google Adsense and learn how to
use it properly. You would be surprised how many people skip this part and then
they are literally shocked when they don't make any money!
If you take a little time to become familiar with the program it will greatly benefit
you in the long run, by helping you maximize your earnings. In this course we are
going to cover the basic points that you need to start using Adsense and making
money with it.
If you haven't already done this, go do it now.
Go apply for your Adsense account. Yes you have to apply and be accepted.
Click here to apply
Then take some time exploring the site. Google wants you to be successful in your
Adsense endeavors, so they have made it as easy as possible for you by putting up
several tutorials to help you get started.
They will teach you all about Adsense for content and search. They have great case
studies, optimization tips a blog and a forum where you can learn what works, what
doesn't and get help if you need it. They provide all of this for free so why not take
advantage of it.
Lesson 1
In this lesson we will talk about building web pages with good content and why they
are an important part of making money with Adsense.
This lesson assumes that you already have a website or at least a basic theme in
mind for your Adsense pages. There are two ways that you can get started using
Adsense.
The first and easiest way is to put Adsense ads on existing pages that you already
have in place. You can do this by following the steps inside your account under the
"Adsense Setup" tab.
With this method you can start earning money with Adsense fairly quickly. In fact
you'll be amazed at the results you will be able to achieve in a very short period of
time.
The second method will take a little more time.
You will be building web pages specifically for Adsense ads. These pages will be built
with high paying keywords and high quality content.
Start by doing a keyword search to find some popular subjects, keywords or phrases
related to the theme of your website. Select the ones that have highest number of
searches. This means that more people are typing these terms into the search
engines. The higher the number the better.
There are many tools that you can use to find profitable keywords and phrases. For
quick and easy results I like to use the keyword selector tool at Yahoo Search
Marketing – click here.
It will give you a count of how many times any keyword has been searched for in the
last 30 days. Remember the higher the better!
Now start writing articles with original content based on the keywords from your
search. If you aren't a writer don't worry. There are many ways that you can get
content for your site. You can use private label articles that you purchase, or hire a
ghostwriter from a site like eLance.com.
Once you have the content ready you can start building web pages around the
articles that include your Adsense blocks.
Lesson 2
In this lesson we will go over the layout for your pages and why they are a key part
of your Adsense earnings.
With Adsense you can place up to 3 ad blocks on your web page. You will find
different theories on whether or not it is most effective to have your ads blend in
with or stand out from the content on your page. While some would say they have
better results when the ads stand out, in my opinion it is best to try and make them
blend in with the rest of the site as much as possible so that your visitors will see
them as content rather than advertisements.
Try mixing the ad blocks throughout your content to create a natural flow through
the page. The proper positioning of your ads should be done with great care. The
goal is to position your ads where your visitors are most likely to click on them.
According to research the first place most people look when they visit a website is to
the top left of the page.
Although it may seem to be a good idea to add bright borders, colors or links to
make you ads pop out on the page you will want to take in to consideration what
your visitors are looking for when they come to your site. If they are there looking
for information or a solution to a problem they would be more likely to click through
on a link that appears to be content rather than one that looks like an ad. If they are
there shopping for a product you may do better to have your ads stand out. Key
lesson here is....
“Always keep your visitor in mind when you are building your pages”.
Google has run tests that show horizontal ads tend to receive more clicks than
vertical ones. The idea being that a person is more used to reading horizontally. So
they are more likely to be attracted to this layout. The larger rectangular ads that
read horizontally have been proven to get more clicks simply because they are easier
to read and look more like blocks of content rather than advertisements.
Another tip for ad placement: There are certain areas to place ads that are thought
to be more likely to encourage a greater click through than others. For instance:
above the page footer, below the navigation at the top of the page and on the top
left hand side of the page.
Keep in mind that near the middle above the main content is thought by many to be
best place to put your ad blocks.
Let's say that you have 3 ad blocks on your page, but still want more. What can you
do? Here comes Google's link units to the rescue. You are allowed to add these in
addition to standard 3 ad blocks without breaking any of the Adsense rules. These
link units are a great way to incorporate ads that can look like they are a natural part
of your sites navigation menus, but when they are clicked on they take the reader to
a page of targeted ads that are related to the topic of your site.
I know this is a lot to think about, but it is very important to take the time to think
about your page layout. If you get stuck for ideas just start surfing. See what other
sites are doing. Where they are putting their ads. You will get some great ideas!
Lesson 3
Let's talk about incorporating Google Search on your pages for extra revenue.
The Adsense for Search program is a great way of increasing your website revenue
while helping your customers search your site at the same time.
Tell me....
Have you ever been to a website and seen a Google search box on it?
Did you know that every time you type in a search from someone else's site and
then click on one of the results that are returned the website owner is getting paid
by Google? Think about that for a minute. By using Adsense for Search you can
actually get paid for giving people exactly what they are looking for!
This makes Adsense for Search a very powerful tool that you can use to increase
your Adsense income. Not only does it add more functionality to your site, it also
ensures you that you are giving visitors to your website precisely what they are
looking for. But it doesn't stop there. You can use it in conjunction with Adsense for
Content, plus you can include ad blocks that will be targeted to your visitors search
term on your search results page. These ads are gold because they will be relevant
to what ever your visitor types in the search box not just to the content of your web
pages.
Are you beginning to see the power of adding a Google search box to your website?
Adding the Google search box to your website is very simple. Google has complete
instructions on their website. All you have to do is copy and paste to code that
Google provides you with into your HTML wherever you want it to show up on your
page. Then you customize the search results page to suit your website’s theme,
include your Adsense ad blocks and you are all done.
Lesson 4
Google Adsense has many ways that they filter the ads that are shown on your
website. It is a good idea for you to become familiar with each of them so that you
can have a better understanding of how the ads are displayed on your site.
Why is this so important?
Because, if you know how the filters work you will be better able to edit the content
on your site to get the highest quality of ads on your pages. The higher the quality of
the ad the bigger the payout on your click through's.
Say for instance you discover a high paying keyword like "quick cash" that you want
to target your Google ads to, but Adsense keeps displaying ads that aren't exactly
what you were hoping for.
Then you know it's time to tweak your pages to make sure that the keyword that you
are targeting is repeated enough in the text so Adsense will display the highest
quality ad on your page. It takes some time and experimenting, but once you
understand how the filters work it will make your job easier.
If you need help knowing what your keywords are worth use the "View Bids Tool" –
click here. It will show you exactly how much advertisers are paying per click on any
word you type in. The higher the price, the better.
Google has also provided a handy little filter called the.... "Competitive Ad Filter"
I love this one! You can use it to keep certain ads from showing up on your site.
Adsense will actually allow you to specify competitors or advertisers whose ads
should not be displayed on your page. How great is that? Let's say you are selling a
specific product from the page where your ad blocks are displayed. The last thing
you want is someone selling the same thing to advertise on that page.
Keep in mind:
Although these filters are great tools that you can use to help boost your earnings be
careful not to filter everything or you may end up losing money by missing out on
relevant ads that get filtered out.
If you want to learn even more about filters you can log in to your Adsense account
and click on the help link at the top of the page. Then type in "Filtering Ads". It will
bring up a list of different topics related to filters. It's important to learn how to use
them effectively so that you can achieve maximum results.
Lesson 5
Let's talk about getting traffic and tracking it to improve your results.
Now, realistically there is no way I can go into every aspect of getting traffic to your
site and converting it to clicks, but what I can do it go over the basics with you and
hopefully give you some ideas that you can use.
There are many different strategies that you can use to make sure you squeeze the
maximum amount of profits out of the Adsense program.
Most importantly is traffic generation. Since the revenue that you generate from
Adsense is based on the cost per click (CPC) and cost per thousand impressions
(CPM) It stands to reason that the more traffic your have to your website the better
your chances are of achieving higher click through rates and making more money.
Which I assume is your ultimate goal!
Getting traffic can be a challenge to any webmaster. Here is a brief list of some of
the different methods that you can use:
- Search Engine Optimization (SEO) - Traffic exchange programs - Link exchange
programs - Writing and submitting articles to directories - Pay per click programs -
Blogs, weblogs or online forums - Email marketing
Once you start getting traffic you want to do everything you can to convert that
traffic in to clicks on your Adsense ads. Like we discussed in lesson one, a well laid
out web page with good content is the best place to start. It will help keep your
website visitors interested and they will be more apt to stay longer, come back often
and click on your ads more.
There are other tips and tricks that you can use to get people to click on your ads.
Like adding pictures that are related to that type of ads that you are showing to draw
more attention to the ads, but make sure that you adhere to the Adsense terms.
You cannot use pictures of people looking or pointing to the ads or in any way
indicating that people should click on the ads. The best thing you can do is make
sure the graphics incorporate nicely into the site design in a way that will enhance
the ads without shouting out "CLICK ME".
I know all of this may seem complicated and time consuming, but it will all become
clear as you become more familiar with the program.
If you need extra help or you want to know what other publishers are doing why not
join the Adsense forums? You can keep up with what is going on and you can get
some really good tips and information on the best ways to make the most money
from you Adsense ads. For details and to join, click here.
Lesson 6
Do you remember in the beginning of this course when I said that Adsense wants
you to be successful with their program?
Well it's true! They have provided you with most of the tools you will need to make
your Adsense business a success.
Tools like reports that you can use to track the performance of your ads. You will find
all of the stats from your campaigns under the reports tab inside your Adsense
account. There you will be able to learn things like the total number of clicks and
impressions for all of your ad units\blocks. You will also be able to view your
effective CPM (cost per thousand impressions).
Let me take a minute to clarify CTR's and CPM's for you.
The CTR (click through rate) for Adsense is the total number of clicks that you
receive for your ad units\blocks. It's broken down by individual ad units. The number
of clicks is then divided by the total number impressions for that unit to return your
CTR. The higher your CTR's the more revenue for you.
The CPM (cost per 1000 impressions) effective CPM is calculated by dividing your
earnings by the total number of page impressions that you receive, and then
multiplying the final figure by 1000. Be careful not to confuse your effective CPM
with your earnings. Effective CPM is generally used for testing various channels to
find out which ones are performing the best. If you need to know more about CTR's
and CPM's login to your account and check out the help files.
The reports can be displayed several different ways. You can view them by the day,
week, month or since your last pay check. You can also search for a specific date
range. You can customize the reports for advanced performance and tracking by
setting up different channels for more in depth results. For instance you can set up
channels to test one page against another, one ad format verses another, keywords,
or even whole websites to see which one performs the best. There are so many
options available with channels that we can't go into them all, but I'm sure you get
the idea!
You can also download your reports in CSV format (comma separated values format)
for better record keeping. Plus get your reports emailed to you automatically so you
don't have to login.
Adsense usually updates the stats every hour, so you can be pretty sure that you are
getting up to date reports.
Lesson 7
In this final lesson I want to share with you some extra tips for getting the best
results from your Adsense endeavors.
1) When you are running an Ad Sense campaign, it is important to make sure that
you are testing all of the different possibilities to make sure that you are getting the
highest click through rate. Try to test different layouts on different pages to see what
works the best. To achieve proper result from your test it is important to use pages
that receive similar amounts of traffic.
2) Although testing is necessity, there are certain areas for your ads that are thought
to be more likely to encourage a higher CTR's than others. For instance, above the
page footer, below the header or navigation bar or on the top left hand side of your
page are thought to be very good. Typically the area in the middle above the main
content is thought to be best.
3. Take the time to provide quality content and make regular updates to your site to
help ensure you a steady flow of traffic to your website. This will help you receive
more ad impressions and more clicks.
4. Keep in mind that visitors can enter your website through a number of different
pages. So it is a good idea to incorporate Adsense on as many pages of your website
as possible. This will increase your overall impressions and hopefully your earnings.
5. Be sure to test the shape, size and color of your ad blocks. You can control and
customize every aspect of the ads so that they blend in with or stand out from the
rest of the content on your website.
6. Test the positioning of your ad blocks to help insure maximum click through rates.
Test different positions on different pages to see which layout achieves the highest
CTR. This will help you discover which areas of your pages that your visitors are
attracted to. Finding the proper position for your ad blocks will be a key factor in
your overall earnings.
7. Using different ad formats will provide different results for different websites. For
instance in most cases the wider ad formats like the large rectangles have been
proven to yield a higher CTR and be more effective than the slimmer skyscrapers
and banner formats. However, this may not be the case for your website - that is
why it is so important to test your results.
8. When you are trying to target specific keyword to attract a higher quality Google
ad for your site make sure that the keyword is repeated enough in the page so that
Adsense knows exactly what the page is about. Be careful though. You want to make
sure that the content still makes sense and is useful. Remember Google takes many
different aspects in to consideration while serving ads.
9. When Google has no ads to display on you site they will automatically show PSA's
(public service ads). If you don't want the PSA's to show on your site you can choose
to have the ad block filled in with a solid color, your own graphic or use the
collapsing ad units code instead.
10. Don't panic if you don't see any ads displaying on your new pages. It can take a
few hours before Google’s web crawlers find pages that have Adsense code on them.
You might see some PSA's at first but these will soon get replaced with targeted
Adsense ads that will earn revenue for you. If you continue to see PSA's after the
first day or two you may want to make sure you didn't violate any of the Adsense
program’s policies.
I sure hope you have enjoyed and learned a lot from these lessons. There is so much
information available about Google Adsense and although I couldn't cover everything
in this short report, I hope I have given you enough information to get you started in
the right direction.

The Ins and Outs of Adsense
Tens of millions of people surf the internet every day. Some of them
are doing so to shop for products and services online. Others are just
skimming all the sights and sounds of the World Wide Web just for
fun. However, there is a common denominator among both of these
groups. If either of them comes across a good deal they are bound to
jump on it. Or, at the bare minimum, they will at least stop and check
a good deal out.
Ultimately, if an attractive advertisement is staring straight at them,
they might investigate further. This is true even if this wasn’t the
original intention.
For example, they may have an interest in politics and visit a politically
oriented website. As they read all the news headlines something
catches their eye: an innocuous advertisement appears in the corner
of the website. Actually, there are several advertisements. One of the
ads mentions “50% discounts on new political book releases”. So, the
visitors click on the ad and is immediately taken to the website
promoting the books. However, they do not make a purchase. But, this
does not matter to the owner of the political website. After all, the
website publisher has already earned income thanks to the visitor
clicking on the ad. And, no, there are no questions asked. His is
credited for having sent traffic to the advertiser. Does this sound like a
good deal? If it does…it’s because it is.
Welcome to the world of Adsense, Google’s revolutionary “Pay Per
Click” advertising strategy that pulls in billions of dollars in revenue
per year. And, yes, a lot of that money goes right into the pockets of
those whose website hosts the Adsense ads. Best of all, this is an easy
and lucrative process that takes mere minutes to set up.
Can you explain Adsense in a little further detail?
Adsense is an attractive method of marketing for businesses.
Traditionally, website ads needed to pay for their display placement on
websites. With Adsense, the advertiser does not pay for placement.
The advertiser pays for clicks. Hence, the name “Pay Per Click” (PPC).
The way this works is rather simple. The advertiser only needs to pay
for those visitors who actually click on the ads. If no one clicks on the
ads, they are not charged a fee. This encourages more and more
- 4 -
advertisers to become involved with Adsense. As such, the pool of
advertisers in the Adsense realm is so vast there are now advertisers
for any and all websites.
This is also a very easy process for the website owner. All one has to
do it copy and paste Adsense code onto their website. The ads will
appear immediately. At first, they will be generic advertisements.
Often, they will be mere public service announcements. This is to buy
time for the Adsense “spiders” as they crawl the publisher’s website.
Once they crawl the site, they will determine what type of website it is.
Then they will affix rotating advertisements that are in accordance
with the subject matter of a website. For example, if the website deals
with hunting and fishing, the spiders will pick up on this and the ads
appearing on the sites will reflect hunting and fishing ads.
While we are using the term website, there are various different online
resources Adsense ads can be placed upon. Blogs are commonly
employed as a venue for Adsense. Social networking sites are used as
well. (MySpace pulls in over $30 million a MONTH from PPC ads)
Website directories are frequently subsidized by Adsense ads.
However, the “average person” will usually utilize a niche website as
the platform for an Adsense campaign. As such, we will mainly deal
with these niche websites herein.
To illustrate, here’s a screenshot of what Adsense ads looks like on a
particular site:

You had most likely come across it while searching on Google, too:

The Basics of a Niche Website
Explained
Of course, in order to earn money from Adsense you will need a viable
venue on the web that will attract visitors. This comes in the form of a
niche website. As the name implies, a niche website is a website that
appeals to a certain audience. Through targeting this audience and
attracting them to the site, you will also provide them with exposure to
the many Adsense ads that will appear on the site itself.
For example, there are many people who love science-fiction. As such,
a niche website that deals with the subject of science-fiction could
attract legions of fans. They would then see various Adsense ads that
deal with their favorite collectibles, hobbies, and memorabilia. Upon
visiting your niche site, these fans would then patronize the Adsense
ads. Here’s an example site for the ‘scrapbooking’ niche:
- 7 -

(source: aussiescrapbooking.com.au)
While science-fiction is a broad topic, please do not assume that all
niche websites need to center on a broad topic. Using science-fiction
as an example once again, you could develop a niche website that
would deal with a subset if the genre, a specific television program or
movie, or a favorite author. And, of course, this same strategy can be
applied to any subject matter you select as your niche site.
However, some may contend that niche websites that promote a
product or service will be less successful than one that promotes a
hobby or interest. Such an assessment may or may not be true
depending upon the way the niche website is crafting. If the website is
informative or entertaining then it will not turn off its visitors. This
means they will stay around for a while and, hopefully, patronize the
Adsense ads that appear on the site.
And, of course, quantity is helpful as well. If one niche website is
drawing an audience and revenues, then two websites will give you the
potential to draw twice as much. Of course, dozens of websites will
have the potential to provide an unending supply of revenues. After
all, the more websites you have out there, the more Adsense ads you
will have floating on the net. This will dramatically increase the
potential for earning revenues.
However, it is important to not confuse quantity with quality. Slopping
together hastily composed websites and tossing them out into
cyberspace is not the way to earn Adsense income. If it were then no
one would need a job as it would only take five minutes to make an
amateurish niche website. And, no, amateurish is not the way to run
any business venture.
Instead, take your time with each niche website you create. Make sure
they follow all the established rules of quality website design and
presentation. Ensure that the content of the website is valuable and
worth reading. Make the site look like a professional, quality work and
not a rush job. Do this with every website you create. This will greatly
increase the odds of success.

How to Sign Up for an Adsense
Account
Signing up for an Adsense account is not a complicated process. Often,
an applicant can complete the necessary sign up steps in a few
minutes. Yes, those who sign up for an Adsense account must apply
for it. Google would need to approve you application as working with
Google is not a “right”. However, the criteria are nothing too complex.
www.google.com/adsense
The application form is fairly self-explanatory. The first section of the
website deals with the type of websites you will be placing the
advertisements. Note: You can place your Adsense code on as many
websites as you like. However, when you sign up for your application
you will need to list a primary website that Google will review upon
processing your application. So, provide the website’s URL and then
provide the language that the website is published in. While Adsense is
not available in all languages, the volume of languages that are
available is fairly expansive.
- 10 -
The next step is to make a few “promises” to Google. You will click on
an agreement that you will not place any ads on your websites that
are an incentive for visitors to click on the Adsense ads. Yes, it is
tempting to post a notice such as “Please support this site by clicking
on the ads” but it is illegal under the terms of Adsense’s service. This
is because Adsense is only interested in PPC traffic from interested
parties. It is not interested in providing a charitable foundation for the
website publishers. Again, Google takes this very serious and if they
catch you soliciting clicks on the ads, they will revoke you membership
and it is doubtful they will ever trust you with an account again!
The next area of affirmation centers on promising Google you will not
include any pornographic content on the site. Google wishes to remain
a family friendly company. They will not subsidize anything
pornographic in nature.
- 11 -
The next step is to note whether or not you are signing up as a
business or an individual. This is generally for tax purposes.
Individual’s will provide a social security number (SSN) and businesses
will eventually provide and employer identification number (EIN).
Then, you will need to provide your complete name and mailing
address. Google does not use PayPal. It sends checks via the mail. As
such, it is critical that you provide accurate information in this section.
Also, Google reports all US income to the Internal Revenue Service.
This is further reason why completely accurate information must be
entered in this section. Adding your phone number and email is also
requested in case Adsense must get in contact with you.
Finally, you will need to affirm three things. First, you will agree not to
click on your own ads. Second, you will certify that you have read all
the Adsense Program Policies. And, thirdly, you must certify you do
not already have an approved Adsense account.
(Adsense agreement to policies)
Let the truth be told: if you click on your own ads Google will find out
and ban you for life! Many people have tried this and none of them
have been successful! So, avoid doing this under any circumstances.
Even accidentally clicking on your own ads could have serious
repercussions. The Adsense Program Policies are fairly lengthy but
they are well worth reading. They tell you all you need to know about
staying in compliance with Adsense’ rules. And it is very important you
stay in compliance if you wish to maintain your membership! And
there is only one Adsense account per individual. This helps maintain
the honesty and integrity of the members.
After you have filled out the information, all you need to do is click the
“submit” button. More than likely, you will be approved within 3 days.
Once you are approved you will receive you code. The code then needs
to be placed on the appropriate section of your website. Different
- 12 -
websites will vary in this regard. If you are unsure of where to place
your code, contact your web hosting service. They can provide the
answer. Once you
place the code, Public Service Announcement ads will appear on your
site. This is because the crawlers have yet to determine the content of
your site. Once they have they will adjust the ads so that they will be
more appropriate for visitors.
And speaking of your website….
Google probably will not approve your application if your primary
website is, essentially, of little value. If your website has very little in
terms of text content or is under construction, your application will
probably be denied. Also, if the website is poorly designed, difficult to
navigate or loaded with various technical issues such as broken links,
it will probably be denied as well. Therefore, it is important that you
have a decent website in place before applying for an Adsense
account. If, however, you do have a solid website then the odds are
pretty good that you will be approved! Remember, Google is looking
for quality sites to do business with as quality sites are the ones that
drawn in a lot of traffic.
Let’s repeat this very important point: You need a decent, well
constructed, valuable for Google to approve your account!
How will you know when you are approved? Google will send you a
confirmation email. You simply click on the link and you are in
business. However, you will need to build you business so that it is a
solid revenue generator. While there is no hard and fast rules as to
what is or isn’t the best Adsense strategy, there are a few tried and
true methods that are helpful. We’ll explore some of those methods
next…..
- 13 -
Developing and Designing the
Website
Surely, there are many who wonder how they can develop and
Adsense niche website if they are not familiar with website design and
development. This is a legitimate concern, but it should not be the
source of any worry. This is because there are a number of options
available to those who need a website. Many people who have never
heard of website design of development prior to discovering the
concept of the Adsense niche campaign have gone on to huge success.
If it wasn’t a problem for them then it shouldn’t be a problem for you.
Here are a few of the ways to solve the design/development
conundrum….
The first option would be to hire a design and development company
to host and craft your websites. Obviously, this would come with a
variety of costs. The designers and the hosting companies would have
to be paid for their services. Of course, if the niche website delivers
solid revenue then theses costs would be covered. And, yes, the costs
of designing and developing a website are tax deductable.
A cheaper option would be to secure the service of a website company
that provides templates for niche websites. These sites can cost a
nominal fee per month and they are easy to navigate. You simply
enter the text of your articles into the designated spots and
hit publish.
The final option, and one that doesn’t require any money, is to create
the website yourself. You can use a free website builder like Kompozer
(www.kompozer.net) to create your website.
On a side note, there is free website hosting companies available as
well. They are not always the nicest in design and you probably will
give them space on the site for their own ads. That is the tradeoff for
getting a free website. For some, this is a fair trade.
As a basic guide, you want your website’s layout to look like the
following illustration:
- 14 -
How To Insert Adsense to Your Website
Before inserting Adsense ads to your webpage, you need to know
where to place it:
The Placement of the Ads
Where are these ads placed? There are a number of options as various
codes are provided. The ads can be placed in the right or left margins,
the top or bottom of the page, or even in the center of the page. They
will also appear on all the subpages of the site as well. And, as
previously mentioned, there is NO cost to the website owner. Google
Adsense is a completely free program. You acquire the code for free,
ad it to your site, and then collect on the clicks. Ok, there is a little
more to this process than the cursory explanation just provided.
- 15 -
However, on a basic level, the purpose of an Adsense niche website is
to promote the Adsense ads. That means they need to be clearly
displayed on the website. Often, people will place them on a site
somewhat haphazardly. Others select ad placements that are ok, but
ok is, well, just ok. You do not want ok because it is akin to being
average.
You do not want to place your ads in an average manner. You want to
do so in a manner that will maximize the rate of success for your site.
A rule of thumb here is to place the ads in a manner that complements
the website. Work with the design of the site and not against it. Some
designs yield better results with the ads at the top of the page while
other work best with the ads in the margins. Perform a little trial and
error and see which placement strategy works best for you.
Here’s a basic guide on placing Adsense ads:
- 16 -
Now it’s time to get Adsense ready
Entering in the code for your Google Adsense account is just as simple.
So, you do not need to assume that running your own niche website is
all that difficult.
- 17 -
You’ll need to be logged in to get your Adsense code. Once you’re
logged in click on ‘Adsense Setup’ and on that page click on ‘Adsense
for Content’. This is the basic and most common type of Adsense
product.
The next step is to choose your ad type. Select ‘Ad Unit’ > Text and
image ads:
- 18 -
On the next page you’ll need to format your ad:
For optimal results, choose a border that is the same color as the area
you’ll be placing the ad. If it’s white then simply select white as the
border color.
After you’ve completed the formatting, you’ll then get to the stage
where you can track the performance of this particular ad. This is
optional but highly recommended.
- 19 -
To add a new channel simply click ‘Add new channel’ and use a
descriptive name for this channel so that you’ll know where your clicks
will come from. It’s also ideal to add the position of where you’ll be
placing this ad. So if this add is for the sidebar of your page, then put
in something like “scrapbooking_sidebar”.
Once this stage is completed, you’ll need to save the ad unit with a
descriptive name and then click on ‘Submit and Get Code’.
You’ll then see the code which you need to copy and paste to your
webpage. If you don’t know how to do this, click on the ‘Code
implementation Guide’ link:

Content is King
The Type of Content You Will Need
It is critically important that the content provided on the website is
both informative and/or entertaining. When people come across you
site, you want them to stay. Or, better yet, you want them to frequent
the site. If they appear on the site for a few seconds and leave, they
will not be around long enough to click on the Adsense. Of course, if
they are not clicking on the ads then your niche site simply is not
going to draw any money.
Returning the previous example, of Halloween costumes, solid articles
on subjects such as the history of Halloween, the origins of Halloween
costumes, Halloween customs in the eastern world, the most popular
Halloween movies, and many other similar themed content articles will
prove appealing to those that have an interest in Halloween. This
means they will stay and read the articles. The hopeful result of this is
that they will click on the ads. Who knows? Perhaps reading about
popular Halloween films may move them to click on that “Horror movie
- 21 -
DVDs – 30% off!” Adsense ad. Yes, that is the goal here and having
quality content is the key.
Of course, some people may read this and say “That’s a great idea,
but I am not an experienced writer.” Well, you do not have to be the
person to write the content for the niche articles. You can procure
original work from a variety of content writing sources. These include
purchasing from established writing services, freelance auctions, and
many other venues. Does that cost money? Of course, it does.
However, the goal of the niche site is to earn revenues. So, consider
the costs of acquiring original content to be a business expense that
will eventually pay for itself through the Adsense revenues.
The articles do not have to be anything academic or visionary. They
just need to be well written and interesting. Yes, this is a basic
approach to creating content but it is an effective approach. Without it,
your niche website will not have much value. That means it won’t be
generating any revenue. Conversely, a well composed website with
excellent text might yield a great revenue stream.
The Basics of Keywords
What are keywords? These are the words that the search engines will
scan in order to ascertain what you site is about. This allows the
search engines to match your website with the subject matter that
people are looking for. This brings us to our next point….
Keywords are also the common terms that people will plug into search
engines when they are looking for information. For example, if your
Adsense website revolves around the
subject of Halloween costumes, you would want to use keywords that
people would commonly use when searching for costumes. Examples
of these keywords would be adult Halloween costumes, kid’s
Halloween costumes, sexy Halloween costumes, plus-sized Halloween
costumes among others.
You do not want the text to be “stuffed” (overused) with keywords.
This is frowned upon by search engines and it does not make for good
website copy. This means the search engines might even go so far as
to ignore your website they may assume it to be a spam website. It
will also turn off readers. If the text and the copy of the websites are
- 22 -
weak and loaded with nonsensical collections of keywords, visitors
won’t stick around. After all, what is in it for them reading poorly
written copy?
In general, it is best to stick with one keyword per 100 words of text.
Make sure the text is professional written and entertaining. Never
sacrifice quality at the altar of keyword content as this would be selfdefeating.
Additionally, the presence of the keywords will convey site information
to the Adsense ads. This will ensure that your website’s Adsense ads
correspond with the content of your site. It is not impossible for a
poorly optimized site to create Adsense ads that have nothing to do
with the content of the site. Needless to say, such a situation would be
disastrous as far as revenue earnings go.
Also, it is helpful to include the main keyword in the title of the website
page. Again, if your site deals with Halloween costumes, then
Halloween costumes should appear in the title!
But, what can you do if you are unsure as to what keywords you
should use? There are subscription services that can provide the
response you need. What these services do is they track the statistics
of commonly used search engine keyword terms. If you were to type
on Halloween costumes, the service would present the most common
keywords associated with Halloween costumes. These services are
relatively inexpensive and provide you with the needed keywords to
make your website properly optimized.
Freekeywords.com and wordtracker.com are two of the most popular
sites. And they do not pull their keywords out of the clear blue sky.
They base their keyword ratings on various search statistics. That
means you can always trust the suggested keywords they provide.
They will be the actual keywords that are used by people skimming the
internet.
Another important point is that the content of your sire must be
original. That means you should not copy or plagiarize material from
other sites. A common trick people will employ is to copy an article
from another site and ad a unique intro along the lines of “Here is an
excellent article published on so-and-so’s site.” This trick doesn’t work.
The search engines will recognize this as duplicate content and
duplicate content has very little value as far as search engine rankings
- 23 -
go. Once again, original and unique content is critical for search engine
keyword success.
A Brief Overview of Content
While we have discussed the general headings of what a niche website
may contain, it is important to delve into the specifics of the content.
Specifically, a niche website should embody the look and feel of a
newsletter or online magazine. That means it should have a number of
articles on it for the visitors to read. These articles are commonly
referred to as website content and it is critical for placement in the
search engines and for maintaining visitors.
Remember the good old days of the early 1990’s where websites
contained sparse text, a few pictures, and a huge advertising come to
purchase? If you do then you realize these were not so much the good
old days as much as they were the dark ages of website design. Do
such sparsely designed websites still exist? Yes, but you will have a
hard time finding them as they have essentially been dropped down an
Orwellian search engine black hole. To survive in today’s day and age,
websites need to have well crafted prose. Without it, the site is
essentially worthless as far as Adsense revenue generating.
The search engines thoroughly frown on websites with little or no
content. When it comes to ranking a website in terms of its numerical
importance, sites that have more content will be given preferential
treatment than those with limited content. This is because a site
offering a number of excellent free articles will certainly be more
worthwhile to readers than those sites without content.
And speaking of readers, those that come across your website need a
reason to stay around. If all you have are a few pictures and a little bit
of writing, even if it is good material, it doesn’t exactly take a long
time to skim 100 words and two photos! Also, such sparse information
does very little for stimulating the imagination or emotions of the
reader. In short, it becomes a marginally positive experience and the
reader will invest a small amount of time on the site and then leave.
Does this sound like the type of visitor who will be clicking on your
Adsense ads? Hardly! You really have to give the reader something to
offer.
How many articles should the website contain? At minimum, you will
need five. However, five to ten can be a better amount of articles. The
- 24 -
reasons you want several articles are varied and they are all
important. Namely, not everyone will have an interest in every topic
you write about. When you provide the visitors with up to ten different
topics you will probably present the visitor with a few topics he will be
interested in reading. Therefore, he may read several of the articles.
This will bring him into contact with the various Adsense ads on the
pages the articles are placed on. So, the more choices of articles the
more articles a visitor may read and the more Adsense ads the reader
might click on. Conversely, too few article topics could dissuade many
visitors from sticking with the site.
Now, does there need to be a specific length to the articles appearing
on the niche website. This is a slightly difficult question to answer
because content dictates length. That is, you want to write a good
article with good content. It the article naturally comes out to 500
words, you will not make it better by forcing it to be a 700 word
article. Padding or lengthening the article will become obvious because
such an article will contain tons of words and phrases will not yield an
article that is worth reading.
Similarly, you do not want an article that is too short. A 200 word
article is not an article. It is a paragraph! You should shoot for a
minimum of 400 words. 500 – 750 word articles would be fine
provided, of course, they are well written. 1200 – 1500 word articles
would be ideal since they can flesh out their subject matter in a great
deal of depth. Most magazine articles fall into this very word length
because covering a subject in a cursory manner is not always a good
way to sustain a readership.
Can you write extremely long 5,000 word articles? It is possible if the
subject you are writing about can sustain such depth. An article on the
subject of the Pacific battles of World War Two would need such
enormous length. Just be sure that you do not publish the entire
article in one column down the website’s page. This would not make
for great website design. Also, much of the text might be below the
“cut off” point of the Adsense ad columns. You do not want people to
ever end up on a part of the niche website that does not have ads
clearly displayed. If your visitors cannot click on your ads then what
value would the website possess?
Instead, opt to break a 5,000 word article into five pages at 1,000
words each. At the end of one page, place a link that continues the
article on another page. This will ensure that the readers are always in
- 25 -
contact with the ads. It also makes for a much more aesthetically
pleasing website design.
Of course, no matter what the length of the article may be it is of
paramount important to never lose site of the necessary keywords.
That means the keyword density would need to be maintained
throughout all the subpages. This is critical because once the keywords
are out of concert with the content of the articles then it will be
doubtful people will click on them.
Adding and updating articles to your website at regular intervals is not
a bad idea either. Look at it this way, if people loved the 5 – 10
articles you have written, they will certainly look forward to reading
the next 5 – 10 articles. (That’s why Stephen King has been in
business since 1975) Adding new articles here and there will keep
attracting old readers back to your sight. They will also aid in
attracting new readers as well.
The Subjects to Write About
While we have discussed how to place the needed content on the
articles, we have not discussed what to write about. This is a critical
point because the subject matter of your articles will determine
whether or not people will be willing to read them. If you subjects are
too dull, banal, or esoteric you may not attract a number of visitors to
your website. However, if the topics are original, engaging, and unique
they will surely draw the attention of a number of readers. But, how
can you specifically come up with a topic if you have a little case of
writer’s block. Well, it wouldn’t hurt to see what others have to say on
the same subject matter.
Articles directories are an excellent resource on every topic under the
sun. Visiting a popular article directory such as EzineArticles.com could
provide the inspiration that you need in order to come up with a
number of great topics. Reading these various articles will surely
provide inspiration of a starting point for further research. Often,
people will bang their heads against the wall trying to come up with a
subject for an article; but, it would be much easier to skim the internet
looking for inspiration. This will deliver more results that trying to
come up with every article idea on your own.
- 26 -
And, no, this does not mean you crib other people’s articles and
paraphrase them. This would not be a very honest approach to
developing your niche website. Instead, your goal is to look at the
material as a source of coming up with your own ideas. For example,
let’s say you come across an article in a directory that covers “5 Ways
to Make Your House More Energy Efficient”. You read the article and
you have serious disagreements. Rather than dismiss the articles, you
can use it as basis for an article that covers your perspective on
making a house more energy efficient.
Or, in a more positive light, you could take one of the five tips and
expand a full article on it. Really, there is no limit to what you can do.
No matter what idea pops into your head, you can use that idea as a
means of expanding the idea into an article. Who knows? Maybe you
will come up with a whole host of ideas as you do your research. All of
these ideas can become the basis for a treasure trove of articles.
Simply take a basic idea and expand upon it. That is probably the best
way to come up with article ideas.
You could also use the article directories as a means of exploring what
works and what does not work in the articles you craft. When you
spend enough time on article directories, you will probably find
yourself asking “How did this article ever get published?” Yes, there
may be a number of poor articles you come across. Don’t ignore
them out of hand. Look at the weaknesses of the articles and analyze
why they are weak. Use this reflection as a means of improving your
own niche site’s content.
And, of course, you will also want to explore the good and sometimes
great articles you come across. Make mental notes about what is
appealing in these articles and what makes them work so well. Use
them as a guide to make sure the quality standards of the articles on
your niche site are high. This is important because high standards will
aid in pulling in traffic.
As we mentioned, keywords are critical within the body of the text.
However, there are other “spots” that the keywords can be placed in.
Namely, you can place the keywords in the title of the article,
headlines, and sub-headlines. These additional components of the text
can also be boldfaced to draw additional attention to them.
Keep in mind, the search engines run on automated codes. That
means they are programs to look for certain things in a website.
Headlines and sub-headlines stick out to the search engines. This is
- 27 -
doubly true when the headlines contain critical and illustrative
keywords. So, a solid mix of distinctive headlines that contain
keywords is a good search engine optimization tactic. Then there is
another benefit as well. Visitors love those headlines!
When people come across a website they are not nose to nose with the
computer screen. They are looking at it from their chair a foot or two
away. From such a distance, it is not exactly easy to make out what is
on the screen unless they look closer and read the words. That’s fine
as most people will give a website a closer “look see” before moving
on. There is, however, a way you can make sure that fewer people
move on. Yes, the addition of keyword containing headlines will aid in
catching their eyes.
How does this occur? Once again, let’s look at the example of the
person looking at the screen from a reasonable distance. The person is
innocuously surfing the internet, clicking on page links, and comes
across a page that boldly proclaims HOW GOLD INVESTMENT IS
SAFER THAN CURRENCY. This is the clear headline to the article and
it distinctly tells the individual what the website is all about. That
means he will stick around and read it particularly if he is interested in
new and safe investment strategies. And, of course, these headlines
also fit into the overall process of defining the Adsense ads. This is
because they will be sending vital information to the Adsense spiders
regarding what ads to display. The words gold, investment and
currency will aid greatly in this regard. However, one headline is not
enough to raise the odds that the Adsense headlines will display ads
related to gold investment. As such, using the keyword gold
investment in two other sub-headings as well as in the article itself
would tip the Adsense ads’ subject in your favor.
Now, at this point, some may be asking if there really is a lot of money
in Adsense?
Believe it or not, there are a number of websites that pull in upwards
of $200,000 PER MONTH in Adsense revenue. Yes, there are websites
that earn well over a million dollars a year from Adsense. If that is not
an inspiration for signing up for Adsense then nothing is! Does this
mean that all you have to do is sign up for Adsense and you are an
immediate millionaire? No, it doesn’t. The amount of money that you
will earn from Adsense will be based on how much traffic your website
gets. So, let’s delve into the subject of traffic, SEO, and link building….
- 28 -
Getting People to Your Website
So you’re website’s ready, how do you get people to your site? Here
are ways to do so:
Optimizing Your Website for Search Engines
If a website is published but it is of little consequence in the search
engines, is it really a website? Yes, and it will be a website no one
visits! Needless to say, this would not be a good thing for a website
that is intended for stimulating Adsense revenue. On a baseline level,
an Adsense website will need traffic in order to generate revenue. If no
one is visiting the website then no one will be clicking on the ads.
While there are many ways to stimulate traffic, a solid presence in the
search engine is critical. This is why you must optimize your website
for the search engines.
What is meant by optimizing a website? It simply means crafting the
website in such a way that it can achieve the maximum benefit from
the search engines. That is, it embodies a number of traits that aid in
directing organic traffic from those who frequent the search engines.
Of course, you need to submit your site to the search engines first.
Most people realize this. However, they will often only submit their
sites to the top search engines: Yahoo, Google, MSN, and AOL. Now, it
is critical that you submit to these sites. But, it is also important to
submit the URL of the website to the smaller search engines as well.
Look, it is free to submit to these engines and they do get some
traffic. So, why not take advantage of them? If you are worried about
the time commitment needed to submit to these search engines, don’t
fret. There are a number of free automated services that will submit
your site of smaller search engines. Again, these services are there.
Why not take advantage of them?
Now, back to the subject of optimizing the websites….
Optimizing websites is not as tough as some assume. All it takes is
following a few simple steps and you will have a website that will
attract a great deal of organic traffic. One of the best ways to do this is
to place a variety of helpful keywords within the text of the website.

Basic Link Building Strategies
Most online business ventures live or die based on search engine
rankings and search engine rankings are often based on links. This is
because each link that points to your site is a vote for the popularity of
your site. The more popular the site that is linking to you, the “larger”
a vote you will get. However, do not fall into the trap of being too
picky regarding where your link is placed. While some links are more
valuable than others, ALL links have value! This is a point that escapes
many people. Don’t make the mistake they do. Acquire any and all
links you can.
There are basically two types of links: reciprocal links and one way
links. Reciprocal links are you exchange links with another site. You
place a link to their site on your webpage and the other party places
your link on theirs. Simply get in the habit of email other similar
websites if they would wish to exchange links with you. The responses
will often be positive because they need help with link building too!
This is ok, but one way links have more value. One way links are links
where the site links to you but you do not link to their site. One way
links are usually more valuable because it infers that you site is very
important. That’s why people are linking to you! Of course, you can
also purchase one way links as well.
There are many services that offer link sales. Search engines
somewhat frown on this process and you might not get as many votes
as you expect. However, many of the links
will count towards your search engine rankings. The price of
purchasing one way links will vary from seller to seller. Some sellers
may charge a lot for a few highly trafficked sites. Others were charge a
little for a large number of low ranked sites. Often, sellers will ad links
onto a multitude of free blogs or submit links to directories for you.
While some may be a little down on such practices, they do help your
search engine rankings.
Blogging and Message Board Link Building Strategies
Then, there are things that you can do on your own to help build up
your links. For example, are you a regular reader of blogs and forums?
If so, you can add your links to your comments in your signature. No,
this does not mean you should “spam” anyone’s forums or blogs. But,
if you are a frequent and active contributor to these forums and blogs,
- 30 -
you can usually leave a link to your sites with little or no problem.
(The publishers of these sites will generally not hassle a regular
contributor) In addition to the search engine benefits of this strategy,
you will also receive direct traffic from those who frequent the blogs
and forums.
Using Article Directories to Build Links
Article directories are another outstanding forum for link building. The
way article directories work is simple. You provide an article on any
subject you wish and include links to your sites within the articles. If
the articles are published, they become part of the article directory’s
network. These articles can then be accessed by those who frequent
the directories. This can lead to significant direct traffic to your
Adsense site. And, of course, the links in the articles will be crawled by
the search engine spiders and add to your search engine placement.
Then, there is another added benefit. The sub-pages the articles
appear in will be crawled by the spiders and ranked as individual pages
within the search engines. That is, if you write an article on superhero
movies and properly utilize keywords associated with these types of
films, someone who cruises the internet looking for info on this type of
entertainment will eventually come across your article. This means you
will get more and more direct traffic to your site! Yes, article
directories are enormously valuable because they provide increased
search engine rankings as well as opportunities for direct traffic. Of
course, all of this targeted traffic will lead to greater conversion rates
on your Adsense site. Well, at least that is the plan.
Using Social Networking Sites to Your Benefit.
Without a doubt, social networking sites provide tremendous potential
for those looking to boost their Adsense campaigns. This is because
social networking sites are a virtual treasure trove of people who share
many of the same interests that the subject of your website(s) may
cover. Additionally, there are a great many ways to utilize social
networking sites as a promotional vehicle to drive traffic to your site
and to build links. If utilized properly, social networking sites can
seriously push an Adsense campaign site through the proverbial roof.
So, let’s look at a number of ways this can be done…..

No one ever truly imagined the wild success that social networking
sites have become. Originally conceived as a means for musicians,
artists, and classmates to stay in touch, social networking has grown
to include people from all walks of life. Best of all, social networking
sites will generally allow business ventures to promote themselves
provided they conduct themselves in an agreeable manner. In other
words, if you present yourself with good online manner you can
promote your Adsense websites without any hassle or interference.
And, of course, you can promote your Adsense websites to people who
would be quite interested in the content of the website.
And, here is the proverbial “kicker”. Social networking sites are free
and easy to use. So, let’s get to the meat of how to use social
networking sites for promotional purposes. Plus, you can create
profiles on as many social networking sites as you wish. However, the
general strategy will remain the same.
Basically, you need to design a profile that will complement your
Adsense site. For example, if you Adsense site revolve around NFL
football, you will want to craft a social networking profile that is
illustrated with images associated with the NFL. This will make the
profile visually appealing to those that come across it. If it is visually
appealing, visitors will want to check it out closer.
Of course, you want the primary title of the site and its slogan to
reflect your Adsense page. This way, people will follow your social
networking profile to visit the page that it is promoting. Ultimately, the
goal here is to use the social networking sites as a conduit to the
actual Adsense site.
It will be critical to build as many friends as you can. The main way to
do this would be to send friend requests to any and all other profiles
you come across. Of course, you will want to be friends with those that
would share an interest in the primary subject of your Adsense page.
But, it doesn’t cost anything to accept friend requests from all
spectrums. When you become friends with others, visit their profiles
and comment on their pages. This way, people who come across your
friends profiles may find their way to yours through you comments.
Hopefully, from this, they will then find their way to your Adsense site.
Social networking sites also come with a host of other features.
Blogging and bulletins are two of the most helpful. You could blog on a
variety of subjects once or twice weekly. Include links in the blog posts
as these links will help in your search engine rankings and they will

also provide a gateway to direct traffic from those looking over your
blog entry.
Bulletins are essentially mass public messages to everyone one your
friends list. You can send bulletins as frequently as you like. Whatever
bulletins you send, be sure that it includes links to your Adsense site.
Again, you want to promote a lot of links on the web and you want to
expand opportunities for direct traffic. The more traffic your Adsense
sites get, the greater the potential revenue they will earn. Really,
there is no limit to the ways you can use a social networking site for
link building and direct traffic. So, if you are promoting an Adsense
site, exploring the options available through social networking sites
would be a wise move.
