Adsense for search
2007-03-06 08:36:03
Discover new revenue while users discover the web When you place an AdSens e for search box on your site, you can improve your users' online experience, generate a new revenue stream and better understand your visitors' needs, all at the same time. Your users will appreciate the opportunity to search the web from your site and you will appreciate the opportunity to monetise those searches through clicks on search results pages. The search results pages can be customised to fit with your site's theme and you will be paid for every valid click on the ads that appear.

Adsense do and don't
2007-03-06 08:36:03
AdSens e do's Customize your AdSense ads, don't just use the default settings. Write your content with not only the reader in mind, but with Adsense considerations as an issue. Don't be too concerned with AdSense ads taking away from other offers on your site. It's been my experience that if people are interested in your content, and in the AdSense ads, they'll finish reading your copy first, then come back to the ad if that's of interest to them. See AdSense as a partner, not a competitor. If you don't have what your visitor is wanting, while you may not get a sale, you may still generate revenue from that visitor by using AdSense. Positioning is important, place the ads where they are most likely to be seen. Google allows you to place up to three instances of AdSense code on each page - use them if you can, but vary the type of implementation Adsense don'ts While...

Category Hint
2007-03-06 08:36:03
What is ?Cat egory Hint??Cate gory hint is a new targeting option by which you can pick and choose from a list of categories supported in the eMiniMalls system. Your selected category will be used as a ?fallback? in the event that the system does not find an appropriate product for your preferred keyword(s). You can browse through all categories using the category preview tool Another use of this feature is to rotate through the popular products in a given category. For example, to show the best ?Digital Cameras?, you would use the category for ?Digital Cameras? and then specify no keywords. The system will then randomly rotate through the set of products in that category. Please note that the category is NOT set at the account level. You have full flexibility to target each eMiniMall unit to its own category. Even if you have more than one eMiniMall unit on a single page, you can have each one targeted to different categories. For example, the first unit can be targeted to ?Sound C...

Adsense Blend
2007-03-06 08:36:03
What colour palettes are the most successful? If you want the biggest revenue impact for the smallest effort, it is recommended to optimize your colour palettes. Choosing the right palettes can mean the difference between ads your user will notice and click on and ads he/she will skip right over. Let me tell you the definition of Blend :Blend means making the background and borders of your ads the same colour as the background of your page where the ad is placed. If your site has a white background and you do not want to spend a lot of time choosing ad colours, we recommend using our pre-designed Open Air palette. Below is an example : For most colour techniques, I recommend using colours for your ad text and links that already exist on your site. For example, if the links on your site are all green and your text is black, use green links and black text in your ads as well. Since most users are accustomed to seeing blue links, you might also try using blue. In general, use common ...

Where should I place Google ads on my pages?
2007-03-06 08:36:03
The best placement for Google ads varies from page to page, depending on content. Here are a few questions to ask yourself when considering where to position your ads: What is the user trying to accomplish by visiting my site? What do they do when viewing a particular page? Where is their attention likely to be focused? How can I integrate ads into this area without getting in the users' way? How can I keep the page looking clean, uncluttered and inviting? Certain locations tend to be more successful than others. This "heat map" illustrates these ideal placements on a sample page layout. The colours fade from dark orange (strongest performance) to light yellow (weakest performance). All other things being equal, ad placements above the fold tend to perform better than those below the fold. Ads placed near rich content and navigational aids usually do well because users are focused on those areas of a page.Anyway just try different locations until you see improvement from that...

Adsense for Forum
2007-03-06 08:36:03
Making AdSens e fit your forum site When you run a forum site, ad placement and formats are key to designing ads that will be successful but not intrusive to your regular users.Placement: Display your ad units where repeat users will notice them Because forum regulars tend to skip the header and go straight to the meat of the thread, placing your ad unit above or below the first post can be more effective than ads next to the logo. Place a leaderboard immediately after the last post. This provides users who make it to the end of a thread with a 'next step' when the content ends. Try to avoid placing it after the footer, though, as your readers will likely move to the next thread without seeing the ad. Formats: Adapting your design for multiple ad units and limited space. Using multiple ad units, you can use a variety of formats to fill ad space throughout your site. Placing a skyscraper above the fold on the left side of your forum seems to produce slightly better performance th...
