How to add AdBrite to your blog



1. To add AdBrite to your blog, go to www.adbrite.com and choose the 'Create an Account' box for Website owners.

2. Next, choose what types of ads you want on your site. You can choose from banner and/or text ads, full page ads and inline ads (when the mouse rolls over highlighted words in the text an ad appears). You have the option of choosing all types of ads or just one or 2.Before you leave that screen you have to check boxes agreeing not to place incentives within your site to click on ads and that the ads will not be set up on sites with pornographic content. Pretty standard stuff.

3. Next choose the ad format you want. AdBrite does not have as many options as Google Adsense but for some this may be a good thing. As you click each option on the dropdown menu the sample ad on the page will change so you can get an idea of what you are choosing.Next choose the type of content you want to allow: either all available ads (except adult) or family-friendly only, then decide if you want your ads auto-approved or if you want to approve each ad before it appears on your site. This setting can be changed later, so for now I'd say go with auto-approve until you learn your way around.

4. Next you need to provide your site info: URL, name of your site and a brief description, and also specify the area where your ads will appear (top banner, left vertical, etc).After that is an important area where you enter keywords that apply to your site. You can enter up to 50 and they have a counter that shows how many you have left. Put some thought into the keywords you choose since these will help determine the types of ads that appear in your site.Once that's complete you will pick a main category for your site and a secondary category. For example, if you blog about books you would pick Arts & Entertainment and then Books.

5.

Finally, answer yes or no to whether you are already using other ad networks and click on the link to get your ad code HTML. Just copy and paste it into the HTML/Java Script area on your site and that's it! You are now signed up with AdBrite. Now start promoting!

How to Add PPC Ads to a Website



How to Add PPC Ads to Your Website

1. First you need to locate a company that provides this service. Google is the biggest and probably the best, but there may be others that suit your needs just as readily. To sign up for Google's PPC service (called Adsense) simply browse to the Google homepage and click the 'Advertising Programs' link under the search bar on the main page. (NOTE: This ink appears after you click 'More' in the top navigation bar when you are using a Mozilla browser. You can sign up for any PPC service you want. Yahoo, MSN and a host of other, smaller companies offer them, too.

2. Sign up for the PPC add program. You will be asked to provide your name, address, payment information and website URL. Each service is different, and they feature differing ways to sign up for the PPC ad programs.

3. Each PPC company has a different platform and program. With Google, you simply cut and paste a piece of code into the HTML of your website page, and the ads appear on your site. This code is very simple: It pulls the ads from Google's servers and displays them on your site.

4. Paste the code into every page on which you want these ads to appear. You will need to understand a bit of HTML, so you can paste the code for the PPC ads in the right spot. Many people paste the code for the ads right into the middle of the page, so that they appear where visitors can easily see them and click on them.

5. Keep track of your PPC ad hits. Each time someone clicks on a PPC ad, you will be paid a price that is determined by how much someone is willing to pay for that click. This is like an auction, so certain keywords will work better. That is why it helps to have some understanding of SEO.

How to Delete Targeted Advertising From Google



1. Access Google's 'Ads Preferences' page at www.google.com/ads/preferences.

2. Click the 'Opt out' button in the middle of the page to stop Google's advertising partners from assigning the 'DoubleClick' cookie that tracks your browsing.

3. Click the 'Download the advertising cookie opt-out plugin' button to download a plugin (Internet Explorer and Mozilla Firefox only) and follow the prompts to permanently opt out. Safari users can accomplish this task by making sure third-party cookies are blocked. Select 'Preferences' from the Safari menu, click the 'Security' tab and make sure the 'Accept cookies' section has the 'Only from sites I visit' radio button checked.

4. Repeat steps one to three for each web browser and computer that you use to surf the web.

How to Create a Million Dollar Ad Revenue Website



1. Create a site that is in tune with what people want to hear about. To get a better idea about the most popular topics, look at Google.com/Trends (see Resources below). This shows what people are searching for the most. By studying these pages regularly, you may be inspired to create a site that will be widely searched. Overall patterns such as the popularity of celebrity gossip can make sites million-dollar-ad-revenue sites. PerezHilton.com is a gossip blog updated at least 15 times each day with gossip about popular celebrities.

2. Create a site that lets readers interact with the site and with one another. Sites such as Facebook, StumbleUpon and MySpace are enormous, and they attract members and readers because of their social aspects. Builders of informational sites and blogs have also made the effort in recent years to create a sense of community in order to keep readers coming back. Your site can be a forum for members or a comments area for each page. As your site attracts more readers each day, you can charge higher ad fees from your advertisers.

3. Have traffic-tracking software in place so that you know your exact traffic figures. The rate that advertisers will pay for a spot on your site often depends on the traffic levels each month.

4. Sign up with Blogads.com (see Resources below) to take advantage of your site's traffic numbers. These sites have a number of advertisers who are looking for popular sites that will display their ads prominently. Keep signing advertisers and building your traffic so that you can raise rates regularly. Eventually, your site could make $1 million in ad revenue.
