Google Ad Sense

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 (728x90) or Wide Skyscraper (160x600) style ads. Unfortunately, this is the wrong choice, because both look like blatant advertisements. Instead smart webmasters have found that using the Large Rectangle (336x280) 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.

Affiliate Marketing

Affiliate marketing is an internet-based marketing practice. In this kind of practice, a company gives rewards to the website owner (the affiliate) who brings a visitor or a guest to the company’s website to see and inquire about the business. In other words, it is a pact between the affiliate and the online merchant. An affiliate receives a commission or reward when the company’s site is visited through the affiliate’s site, or when that company makes a sale.

Commissions vary, depending on the action of the visitor once he’s inside the website of the online merchant. For example, in a website for credit cards, when a visitor completes an application form, the affiliate is given a small commission. But the affiliate receives a bigger commission if he himself fills up the application form for the visitor. Commission rates start at 5 dollars, but vary from company to company.

This type of business is based on cost per lead or cost per sale. Affiliates receive commission only after a sale (when the company profits through your website). A lot of people now leave their jobs to enter this business. They setup their own websites and become affiliates. It is a very profitable business that could even surpass your previous monthly salaries if you play the game right.

The major advantages or benefits of these affiliate programs are:
Affiliate programs give rise to online companies like eBay and Amazon
Affiliate marketing makes easier sales. Companies find it less difficult to sell their products and services online.
Business saves on cost in sale sans the salaries needed for actual salespersons. Commissions given to affiliates are cheaper.
Becoming an affiliate is a good opportunity to augment your income even if taken as a part-time job only.
Affiliates can work from home. An office is not needed.
Promoting a website is very easy. Add your advertisements in just a click.
It reduces stress that’s normal in a daytime job.
This is a good option for people nearing their retirement age.
