5 Adsense Tips to improve your earnings
Adsense has long been one of the best ways to monetize your
website but it's amazing how many people are leaving so
much potential earnings on the table simply by not thinking
about how and where they place their Google ads. In this
article I go through some simple changes that you can make
to your ads that will have a huge impact on the commissions
you'll receive from Google.

Use the full allowance of ads available to you on each page

Google allows you to place 3 different regular ad units and
1 link ad unit on each and every page of your website and
it is important to use this allowance to maximize your
chances of clicks. Place them in area's of the page that
your visitors will be looking. For example, if your page
has an article, place them to float within the text of the
article. Either at the top of after a couple of paragraphs.
Another great place to place ads is at the bottom of an
article as your visitors are looking for a place to go once
they've finished reading the article. Why not then present
them with some options in the form of some adsense ads. The
key is to blend them into the page so they don't detract
from the content. Another thing to add here is don't use
the horizontal banner ad format. Your site visitors are
blind to them and simply won't click on them. This removes
one of the 4 allowed ads on your page.

Optimize each page for adsense


By using these popular keywords, you're opening the door
for Google to place higher paying ads on your website. The
more popular the keyword or phrase, the higher AdWords
advertisers are generally willing to pay per click. This
results in much higher rates of commission for you on each
of those clicks.

Use Google's Custom Channels for each of the ad units on
your site

Google has provided web site publishers with some great
tools to help you analyze and tweak your adsense ads. Give
each unit a unique name and then analyze the results and
keep tweaking them until you get the desired results from
them. If they are not working were they are placed, move
them. Try changing the colors and integrating them
differently into the text and keep detailed notes on the
changes you are making and see which one's make the biggest
change to your CTR (Click Through Rate).

Blend you Adsense ads into your web pages

This next tip is one of the simplest changes I made but had
a huge effect on my earnings. Make links the same color as
your existing text links. Don't try and make the ads stand
out on the page by using bright colors as all this achieves
is making a big warning sign that these are ads and the
majority of people will then not click on the links. By
making the links the same color as your links, it looks
like they are an extension of your page. If you use the tip
above and optimize each page for specific keywords then the
ads served on the page will be related to the information
on the page and you'll see your CTR shoot up.

Learn from the best

And finally, a tip that I advise for all aspects of website
marketing, not just for adsense purposes is, learn from the
masters. There are plenty of people making thousands of
dollars in adsence earnings every month and have gone
through all the trial and error iterations that need to be
done to find the most successful way to maximize your
adsense earnings. My advice, invest in their courses. They
pay for themselves in a very short period of time.

Google AdSense Program Policies

Google AdSense Program Policies

Publishers participating in the AdSense program are required to adhere to the following policies. We ask that you read these policies carefully and refer to this document often. If you fail to comply with these policies, we may disable ad serving to your site and/or disable your AdSense account. While in many cases we prefer to work with publishers to achieve policy compliance, we reserve the right to disable any account at any time. If your account is disabled, you will not be eligible for further participation in the AdSense program.

Please note that we may change our policies at any time, and pursuant to our Terms and Conditions, it is your responsibility to keep up to date with and adhere to the policies posted here.

Invalid Clicks and Impressions

Clicks on Google ads must result from genuine user interest. Any method that artificially generates clicks or impressions on your Google ads is strictly prohibited. These prohibited methods include but are not limited to repeated manual clicks or impressions, using robots, automated click and impression generating tools, third-party services that generate clicks or impressions such as paid-to-click, paid-to-surf, autosurf, and click-exchange programs, or any deceptive software. Please note that clicking on your own ads for any reason is prohibited. Failure to comply with this policy may lead to your account being disabled.

Encouraging clicks

In order to ensure a good experience for users and advertisers, publishers may not request that users click the ads on their sites or rely on deceptive implementation methods to obtain clicks. Publishers participating in the AdSense program:

• May not encourage users to click the Google ads by using phrases such as "click the ads," "support us," "visit these links," or other similar language
• May not direct user attention to the ads via arrows or other graphical gimmicks
• May not place misleading images alongside individual ads
• May not promote sites displaying ads through unsolicited mass emails or unwanted advertisements on third-party websites
• May not compensate users for viewing ads or performing searches, or promise compensation to a third party for such behavior
• May not place misleading labels above Google ad units - for instance, ads may be labeled "Sponsored Links" but not "Favorite Sites"

Site Content

While Google offers broad access to a variety of content in the search index, publishers in the AdSense program may only place Google ads on sites that adhere to our content guidelines, and ads must not be displayed on any page with content primarily in an unsupported language. View a list of supported languages.

Sites displaying Google ads may not include:

• Violent content, racial intolerance, or advocacy against any individual, group, or organization
• Pornography, adult, or mature content
• Hacking/cracking content
• Illicit drugs and drug paraphernalia
• Excessive profanity
• Gambling or casino-related content
• Content regarding programs which compensate users for clicking on ads or offers, performing searches, surfing websites, or reading emails
• Excessive, repetitive, or irrelevant keywords in the content or code of web pages
• Deceptive or manipulative content or construction to improve your site's search engine ranking, e.g., your site's PageRank
• Sales or promotion of weapons or ammunition (e.g., firearms, fighting knives, stun guns)
• Sales or promotion of beer or hard alcohol
• Sales or promotion of tobacco or tobacco-related products
• Sales or promotion of prescription drugs
• Sales or promotion of products that are replicas or imitations of designer goods
• Sales or distribution of term papers or student essays
• Any other content that is illegal, promotes illegal activity, or infringes on the legal rights of others

Copyrighted Material

Website publishers may not display Google ads on web pages with content protected by copyright law unless they have the necessary legal rights to display that content. Please see our DMCA policy for more information.

Webmaster Guidelines

AdSense publishers are required to adhere to the webmaster quality guidelines posted at http://www.google.com/webmasters/guidelines.html.

Site and Ad Behavior

Sites showing Google ads should be easy for users to navigate and should not contain excessive pop-ups. AdSense code may not be altered, nor may standard ad behavior be manipulated in any way that is not explicitly permitted by Google.

• Sites showing Google ads may not contain pop-ups or pop-unders that interfere with site navigation, change user preferences, or initiate downloads.
• Any AdSense code must be pasted directly into webpages without modification. AdSense participants are not allowed to alter any portion of the code or change the behavior, targeting, or delivery of ads. For instance, clicks on Google ads may not result in a new browser window being launched.
• A site or third party cannot display our ads, search box, search results, or referral buttons as a result of the actions of any software application such as a toolbar.
• No AdSense code may be integrated into a software application.
• Webpages containing AdSense code may not be loaded by any software that can trigger pop-ups, redirect users to unwanted websites, modify browser settings, or otherwise interfere with site navigation. It is your responsibility to ensure that no ad network or affiliate uses such methods to direct traffic to pages that contain your AdSense code.
• Referral offerings must be made without any obligation or requirement to end users. Publishers may not solicit email addresses from users in conjunction with AdSense referral units.
• Publishers using online advertising to drive traffic to pages showing Google ads must comply with the spirit of Google's Landing Page Quality Guidelines. For instance, if you advertise for sites participating in the AdSense program, the advertising should not be deceptive to users.

Ad Placement

AdSense offers a number of ad formats and advertising products. Publishers are encouraged to experiment with a variety of placements, provided the following policies are respected:

• Up to three ad units may be displayed on each page.
• A maximum of two Google AdSense for search boxes may be placed on a page.
• Up to three link units may also be placed on each page.
• Up to three referral units may be displayed on a page, in addition to the ad units, search boxes, and link units specified above.
• AdSense for search results pages may show only a single ad link unit in addition to the ads Google serves with the search results. No other ads may be displayed on your search results page.
• No Google ad or Google search box may be displayed in a pop-up, pop-under, or in an email.
• Elements on a page must not obscure any portion of the ads.
• No Google ad may be placed on any non-content-based pages.
• No Google ad may be placed on pages published specifically for the purpose of showing ads, whether or not the page content is relevant.

Competitive Ads and Services

In order to prevent user confusion, we do not permit Google ads or search boxes to be published on websites that also contain other ads or services formatted to use the same layout and colors as the Google ads or search boxes on that site. Although you may sell ads directly on your site, it is your responsibility to ensure these ads cannot be confused with Google ads.
