Webmaster Pro Guide

How much revenue do you generate from Google Adsense?

Recently there has been a lot of discussion about people who earn over $10,000 a month just from Adsense. Furthermore, there are rumors of a few individuals who earn over $1 million a year just from using the power of Google advertisements.

So what is Google Adsense and how can you use this program to earn a six-figure income?

About two years ago, Google created this program to help websites to monetize their web-traffic.

Here’s how it works:

Webmasters obtain a special code from Google which then displays targeted ads on their website. Whenever a visitor clicks on one of these ads, the webmaster earns a commission. Unlike other online businesses, there is no selling involved. All you need to do is get people to click on the ads.

Although this is an excellent way to generate an income, many websites are not effectively maximizing their Adsense potential. As a result, they are leaving a lot of cash on the table.

The question is how can you increase your Adsense revenue without increasing the number of web visitors?

The key to earning an income with Google Adsense is to have your ads match the rest of the site, making them look like part of your content. Your focus is to avoid having the Adsense blocks look like blatant advertisements.

The following are six ways that you can do this and increase your revenue at the same time:

1) Find the right place- Most website visitors read content that is in the middle of a webpage. As a result, the best place to put your Adsense block is in the top part of the page, at the beginning of your web content. You want to weave the Google Ads into your web content to give the appearance that they are extra links which expand on the information of the page.

2) Use the Large Rectangle-With Google Adsense, you have the option of picking different ad formats. Most of the time people opt to use the Leaderboard (728×90) or Wide Skyscraper (160×600) style ads. Unfortunately, this is the wrong choice, because both look like blatant advertisements. Instead smart webmasters have found that using the Large Rectangle (336×280) yields the best amount of click-thrus.

3) Ditch the border- Many people experience a sharp increase in Adsense revenue when they changing their border. What they change is very simple…they get rid of the border on their Adsense blocks. This is another way to make the advertisements look like useful web content.

4) Adapt the font- Whenever you write content, it should be the same font size and style as your Google Adsense block. This will help make it appear that the advertisements are a natural part of your website.

5) Match the colors- In addition to changing the fonts, you also should match the colors of your website. For instance, if your content is written in black, and your hyperlinks are blue, then the Adsense blocks should also be the same color. Again, this helps the advertisements appear to be normal web content.

6) Don’t have too many distractions- On a webpage, it is important to give web visitor a limited number of options. By having too many links and graphics, the web visitor might go to a section that doesn’t help increase your profits. While it is important to inform and entertain your web visitor, it is also vital that you monetize your site. So if the main focus of your site is to earn an income through Google Adsense, then get rid of all non-essential links and graphics.

By taking the time to implement these six simple steps, you’ll see a dramatic increase in the click-thru ratio of your ads. If added to all of the content of your site, your Adsense income will skyrocket!

So here are 10 of some of the most effective ways to make your site’s visitors click on your ads:

1. Use reverse psychology on your banner ads. You could tell people not to click on your banner ad. Forexample “Don’t Click Here If You Are Comfortable With Your Looks”… This is one of the famous techniques used by the Rick Jerk.

2. Make your banner ad words as attractive as possible. Use words like ultimate, powerful, sizzling, hot, etc. Your words should relate and highlight your total offer.

3. Offer a discount offer on your banner ad. People are always looking for good deals. You could offer a percentage discount, dollar discount, buy one get one free discount, etc.

4. Use a testimonial on your banner ad. This’ll give people proof they aren’t wasting their time clicking on your banner ad. The testimonial should include enough information so they understand the offer.

5. You could have a famous and respectable person on your banner ad representing your product, website or service. People will click because they’ll trust them over you.

6. Use a strong guarantee on your banner ad. You could include the guarantee as a headline for your offer. It could read double or triple your money back guarantee, lifetime your money back guarantee, etc.

7. Tell people to click on your banner ad. Newbies to the internet may not even know they can click on banners. Just having the phrase “click here” on your banner will increase your click-throughs.

8. You could advertise a trial or sample offer. This will tell people there is no risk or obligation if they click on your banner ad and try out your product or service.

9. Tell people the major benefit of your product, website or service on your banner ad. It could be benefits like: make money online, lose weight, increase energy, save money, save time, etc.

10. You could advertise a free offer on your banner ad. People love free stuff. The freebie should relate to your target audience. If the freebie is attractive to them they will click.

google has been on a real losing streak lately when it comes to creating things that make money.

you can also find clickable adsense text ads playing within the video window at revver.com, it’s the exact same thing, but the payout for revver affiliates is something like only 20%? pretty dismal, but if you can find content for your niche, it might be worth checking out.

You may have read my earlier article about AdSense and started to use it, or you use AdSense anyway but this guide will teach you how to get a higher CTR (Click Through Rate) on your website.

CTR is basically how many people click on your ads, so a higher CTR will bring you more earnings. Some sites have a low CTR, this is just a fact. It is know that forums have a low CTR because people want to talk, interact and post but blogs have a high CTR because the visitors want to read and learn. (more…)

First, go to your adsense reports and see whats your ctr.

if its a website and you have 3%= very low 10%=regular 15%=a good optimized website.

if its a blog, its a little different, cause on blogs the ctr gets down. 2%= very low 5%=regular 10%= a good optimized blog.

So, lets say you are around 4% CTR. lets get it up!

first, take note on what is your ctr the day you begin. in one week, check again and see the results.
<h2>DONT make your ads look like ADS!</h2>
well, that must sound weird, but its true, people dont visit your site for view ads, they are looking for the content. if you make your ads with borders, images, people will see that links like banners, and most of them of course will not click them.

The same happens to ads that are at the top, bottom, or far from the content, so keep this in mind.
<h2>HERE ARE SOME TIPS THAT I USED TO UP MY CTR:</h2>
1.-use text ads. not images.when you are making your adsense ad, choose the option: only text ads. image ads pay lower and are not very clickable.

2.-very low ctr? If your Ctr is very low, try to use blue link colors in all your site:<span class=”style1″> BLUE COLOR: </span>#00FFFF and also on adsense ads. use the same border as the background color, and use the same background adsense color as the same adsense color of your site. remember that the best background for article themes is the white, but if you have a website of games, or design, its better other color.

WidgetBucks features pay-per-click shopping widgets that help customers make money fast. They instantly display the most popular products based on buying trends of 100 million shoppers. Thus they are highly engaging, which means instant dollars for our customers. Our widgets see $3-$6 CPM — pretty good compared to traditional ad networks that deliver less than $2 CPM.

The idea is simple; you embed the widget code into your blog / Your site web and it acts as a product feed based on your sites content or a chosen category, you then get paid for clicks and hopefully make billions… hopefully.

The widget itself is fully customisable, and actually looks quite nice, although I wish they’d allow for a slightly smaller size, as it tends to dominate the page. I signed up so you can see the widget but I refuse to put this behemoth into my sidebar until they make it smaller.

Gripes aside, I do really like this idea, and the signup
process is quick and easy, so if your blog / Site web has a sidebar with plenty
of space, give it a try, You Will not regret.
