How to Improve Google AdSense



1. Make sure keyword tags relate to the content within the website. Someone will be less likely to click on an ad for a blender if he is visiting a site with information on how to quit smoking. They probably would click on ads related to quitting smoking, though.

2. Do not clutter your website with ads. Place ads away from content information on the website page. Users might get irritated or impatient and leave the site before further exploring other content on the website.

3. Provide more quality content for your site. Content-rich sites may keep viewers on the site for a longer time. This could increase the probability that someone will click on an ad. If your viewers don't find the information they need from your site, they might look elsewhere.

4. Increase traffic to your website. Visit online communities and let other users and friends know about your website. Visit forums about topics related to your website. IF you created a website on how to quit smoking, visiting forums on the subject and letting individuals know about your site could also increase traffic to your website.

5. Search for higher cost-per-click keywords. Use Google's adword keyword tool to find keywords that may be worth more than other keywords for your site. Higher cost-per-click keywords could increase your earnings.

6. Search for popular keywords to add into your sites. Popular keywords will generate more traffic because many individuals commonly use those keywords or phrases in search bars. For example, you could get more views from a keyword that generates 1,000,000 views a month than from a keyword less commonly used that generates only 1,000 views per month.

7. Submit your site to various search engines to index the site among the list of websites that appear in the search results. Viewers can then find your site among the search engine's list whenever they type keywords relating to your site into the search bar.

How Does Google Generate Targeted Ads?



Search Keywords

When you search for information on Google, you may have noticed a pink box with the word 'Ad' at the top of the results page. The advertisement is selected based on your search keywords. Any business can create an AdSense advertisement through Google's AdWords program. Using AdWords, business owners input the search keywords for which they want their advertisements to appear. Many advertisers compete for the most popular keywords and bid against one another hoping that their advertisement will appear most prominently.

Previous Websites

When you visit a website that displays AdSense advertisements, Google saves a tracking cookie on your computer. This cookie contains an alphanumerical string that serves as a unique ID for your computer. Using this cookie, Google is able to track each AdSense publisher that you visit and build a profile of your interests. The profile does not identify you personally; it only tracks the online activities that take place on your computer. If you visit many websites about cars, for example, you may find car-related advertisements on a website with unrelated content.

Website Content

When Google crawls a website and caches the content for its search engine, it records the keyword density of that website to determine the content. Google uses this information to provide relevant search engine results. If that website displays AdSense advertisements, Google also uses the keyword content of the website to match it with relevant, targeted ads.

Privacy

When Google collects information for targeted advertisements, it links that information to your computer, not to you personally. Google requires all publishers that display AdSense advertisements to post a privacy policy explaining how Google's tracking cookies work. If you do not want Google to track your history of searches and visited websites, opt out of this tracking through Google's Advertising and Privacy page.

How to Write Google AdWord Ads



1. Select effective keywords to use in your ad. For example, if you are advertising ways for people to attract more visitors to their websites, use words like 'traffic,' 'more' and 'increase.' Keep in mind that your headline is limited to 25 characters and the two text rows must be 35 characters with no images or colors. The last line is for your URL.

2. Capitalize the first letter of each word in your headline except for words like 'and,' 'the' and 'in.'

3. Use questions, how-to information, interesting claims or a sense of trust in the headline to pull the reader in. Some examples include 'Want More Traffic?,' 'How to Get More Traffic' and 'Secrets to More Traffic.'

4. Use ellipses at the end of your headline text to indicate that a reader will find more information on the site you are promoting. For example, 'Get More Traffic Info... .'

5. Include different keywords and phrases in the text rows of your ad. Do not use words like 'free' or 'buy.'

6. Target the ad text to keywords that would appeal to someone performing a search that's related to your product or service.

7. Remove any words that don't absolutely have to be in the ad. Be specific.

10 Google Adsense Tips



Don't Make A Site Just For AdSense

Sometimes website designers will create pages whose only purpose is host AdSense ads. Often, these sites feature language intended to attract profitable advertising, such as 'asbestos,' 'mesothelioma' and 'low interest home loans.' If fact, Google seldom directs traffic to these sites, making them money losers.

Use Non-Standard Ad Sizes

One of the main hazards to visitors clicking on your ads is 'ad blindness,' in which readers' eyes seem to wander right over your ads without seeing them. To avoid this, make your ads stand out by using non-standard ad sizes. For instance, avoid the banner ad at the top of the page, which most people stopped noticing in the late 1990s.

Place Your Ads In Heat Sensitive Spots

In their AdSense Help section---available in the References section below---Google includes a 'heat map' that shows where the human eye moves when it first encounters a web page. The map suggests the human eyes looks to the center and the upper right, making this prime real estate for ads.

Rotate Ad Schemes

If you keep your ads the same, repeat visitors will stop noticing them. Change color schemes regularly to keep your page fresh.

Use Google Analytics

Google Analytics is a great tool to know whose visiting your site and seeing your ads, allowing you to tweak content and ad placement.

Attract Traffic From Image Search Engines

While many website designers know to load their page with words that will attract traffic from search engines, many forget that image search engines are a big generator of hits as well. Add a few well-labeled images and boost your Google Image search referrals.

Use Contrasting Colors

To avoid ad blindness, make your ads pop by using ad colors that contract with your background.

Avoid Non-English Words on English Pages

Non-English words have the potential to attract non-English ads, which few English speakers will click on. Avoid them as much as possible.

Study AdSense Premium Sites

AdSense Premium sites, such as Maholo and the New York Times, receive special layout advice from an AdSense coordinator. Study their layouts for tips on maximizing ad revenue.

Follow the AdSense Terms of Service

This is an obvious one, but an astonishing number of websites don't do it. Follow the AdSense Terms of Service or prepare to be booted.

How to Reopen My Adsense Account



1. Visit the Google AdSense support Web page, scroll down to the 'My Account' category and click 'Cancellation.' Click 'Disabled Account FAQ' and then click the 'Can my account be reinstated after being disabled for invalid click activity?' link. The 'online form' hyperlink in that answer will take you to the 'Invalid Activity Appeal' form.

2. Fill out the contact information section of the form. Include your name, email address, AdSense login and publisher number. You can find your AdSense publisher number in the HTML code of an ad on your website labeled as 'Google_ad_client='pub-xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx'; if you still can access your AdSense account, you can find the number in the corner of your account home page, above the 'Help' field.

3. Answer the remaining questions truthfully related to your website and the type of content displayed.

4. Select whether you have purchased traffic for your site or have given users incentives to click on ads.

5. Explain whether your site has violated any AdSense policies, terms and conditions. If you believe that you have not violated any policies, explain why.

6. Confirm whether your blogs recorded any data of suspicious IP address, requests or referrers. If so, include information about that data in the appropriate field.

7. Verify that the information that you included on the appeal form is accurate and complete. Click 'Submit' to transmit your request to Google. The support team will email you with a decision on your account once it has been reviewed. If your appeal is approved, your account will be reopened.
