USING GOOGLE ADSENSE

Every time we click and visit blogs on Google, we see many flashy advertisements which come in various colors and designs to attract our attention. You might wonder what they are and, the answer is simple they are part of Google’s Adsense. This is a revolutionary product designed by Google to offer advertisements as well as generate income to blogs owners. Web owners can subscribe to the program to enable image video and text advertisements to be run on their blogs.

Adsense has turned out to be a very popular advertising platform with blogs owners who use it as a revenue-generating tool. Adsense serves advertisements to users based on the content searched and their geographical location. Many webmasters have invested much of their time in developing tools to maximize their Adsense income. This is done through increasing traffic to their sites, building valuable content that attracts Adsense to their sites also by using text content on their blogs that encourage visitors to click on advertisements.

Adsense was the brainchild of the founders of Oingo Technologies. Google acquired the company and transformed their idea into a money minting scheme with sales in excess of $2 billion in 2011.

So, how does it work? That’s what most people may ask them. Well, to be honest, it is a very easy application. First the webmaster inserts a JavaScript containing the ad into the blogs. Each time the blogs is visited, the JavaScript displays the content by fetching it from Google servers.

Using the Google Adsense product is like child’s play. If you have a basic knowledge of blogs and a working computer with an internet connection, you definitely are eligible for it. The following basic instructions can help you join the bandwagon of people making money from Google Adsense:

1.       Construct your own blogs that has a legitimate purpose and is forthright. Making money from Adsense should not be your priority when creating the blogs.

2.       Then sign up for the Google Adsense program. You should have the following in hand when applying your blogs URL, blogs language, name, address and telephone number.

3.       Submit the sign up information after filling in all the necessary information.

4.       Activate the Google Adsense account by clicking on the email link sent to you upon account approval by the Google team.

5.       Once you have activated the Adsense account, you can log onto your Adsense account and obtain the HTML code sent to you for the site once it has been approved.

6.       Copy and paste the generated code into the relevant box in the blogs and you are good to go.

Google Adsense has taken the internet by storm and with this came the problem of people wanting to make money by posting fake claims and opening multiple zombie accounts. Zombie accounts are usually accounts that contain spam blogs filled with a lot of interconnected sites that lure customers from Google and other search sites onto their own Adsense sites. This problem, plus uploading of malware and Trojan horses through these sites, poses challenges to it.

Google Adsense can be a very powerful marketing tool because it’s programmed to appear in blogs that offer relevant content to what you want to advertise. It can also be an invaluable source of revenue for smaller blogs.
