Making Serious Cash from Google Adsense


Google Adsense is considered as one of the most powerful tools in a website publisher’s arsenal. It enables a person to monetize his or her site easily. If used properly, it can generate a very large and healthy income for you. However if you are not using it rightly and just maximizing the income you squeeze from it, you are actually leaving a lot of money on the table. Something all
people hate doing. You can start earning money with Adsense easily and quickly and you will be amazed at the results you will be getting in such a short period of time.

You make money once visitors to your site click on the ads. Though Google does not disclose how much it pays per click,it sends you a cheque once your earnings reach $100.You can then cash your cheque by opening a domicilliary account a bank. In some countries,Google pays straight into your bank account through the Electronic Funds Transfer(EFT).Check to make sure Google offers this service for your country.

How do I subscribe?

1.Set up an articles-based site and place Google Adsense on it. You will be amazed at
how much you will make in a short period. Examples of article sites that have Google
Adsense on them are http://articlejoint.com,http://ezinearticles.com etc etc
2.Set up a forum and place Google Adsense on it.A forum,if you don’t know,is an online
meeting place where people discuss their problems and find solutions to them.Simply
put,it is a discussion board.

The key to success with Adsense is the placing of ads on pages that are receiving high
traffic for high demand keywords. The higher the cost-per-click to the advertiser, the
more you will receive per click from your site. Obviously, it does not pay to target low
cost-per-click keywords and place them on pages that do not receive hits.With all the
people getting online and clicking away everyday, it is no wonder why Google Adsense
has become an instant hit

An important part of growing your blog is making sure that the World Wide Web knows your blog exists and knows when you publish new content. Blogger helps you achieve this through its automatic pinging service in conjunction with Weblogs.com

In simplest terms, pinging is the process by which a signal is sent to a server

Blogger users can easily configure their blogs to ping Weblogs.com, the largest
and oldest ping server, as follows:

The Basic configuration window opens, as shown in the below Figure


2. Choose Yes from the Let Search Engines Find Your Blog? Dropdown menu.
