Adsense On Your Site

One has to love Adsense! Though I was one of the folks who got sour on Google's Adwords campaign, I came back a couple of years later and got familiar with Adsense. Taking some liberty and assuming the request for this Hub meant "what are good sites to use Adsense on?", I am going to pass along my experience with working the Adsense angle on all of my sites.

In my experience Adsense performs best on sites that offer website content that is both information and updated frequently. How-To sites, blogs, news, social networking, and entertainment sites rate amoung my favorites. Personally, my most popular and highest revenue generating ads, whether adsense or not, are those that use categories and keywords that promote social networking.   


Adsense Makes Good Sense for Webmasters!

As my own webmaster I think that everyone should check out the Adsense train. The revenue may not always be big on all sites, but you might just pay the hosting and your costs! That's a pretty good accomplishment for anyone new to Adsense

My Personal Favorites

While I try to incorporate Adsense into all my webpages, I also don't try to over do it. Page after page filled with Adsene ads seems like a waste. I think that sometimes at least folks get desensitized surfing the net and it doesn't matter what you have in front of them. they just surf on.

While I am always hopreful, I obviously have several pages with adsense that get few, it any clickthrough. My best producing sites have to do with social network and information. Actually, if you can find a way to get good informational pages in front of viewers they will read them and are more liekly to click on an advertising on your website.

My "top three" best adsense revenue producing sites in order and type:

  1. eCommerce
  2. Social Networking
  3. Informational

A Quick Word On Templates & Google Adsense

 Lately I have been leaning a bit more towards template dirven sites as I develop and build. I don't do this so much because they are "pre-made" sites that I can quickly edit the content of and publish. I do this more because the templates available are beginning to include adsense ready features. I like that. While you have to do a bit of web serching to find them, and the layout isn't always exactly as you would like, the webmasters and builders appear to have a good understanding of Google's 3 ad rule and apparently have read Google's tips for generating revenue based on ad location as the templates usually are viewer friendly. That is good new!

For anyone considering adding Adsense to your website, I suggest you read the Google library on Adsene before you embark on this adventure. Using Adsense is not complicated, but you want to do it right and no violate any of the terms. You also want to make sure you add the appropriate full website code snipet of the ads won't display.

Quick Adsense Tip:

 TIP: When selecting your adsense categories try to us different words to describe the same category you want to promote. i.e. if your site is about recipes your categories might be: recipes, cooking tips, quick food prepraration, etc. Do this with all the categories you want to display on your site. Then it's easy and fast to rotate your categories in the Google Adsense manager. I do this frequently. It also helps me keep tabe on my best producing categories to use as I develop more sites.

Until next time, Happy Hubbing - Dave
