What exactly is AdSense?

AdSense, which was launched in 2003, is Google’s advertising program that allows websites and YouTubers to earn money by hosting third-party ads on their sites or channels.

Over 1.2 million websites in the United States use AdSense. Google pays approximately $10 billion to website owners each year.

 

The benefits of using AdSense

Here are five benefits of using AdSense:

• AdSense is free: There is no cost to sign up for AdSense. You only need a Google account, a phone number, and an address to get started.

 

• AdSense is simple to set up: simply add a piece of code to your website and Google will take care of sizing the ads to fit the desktop and mobile versions.

 

• AdSense allows you to monetize your website: One of the most obvious advantages is that AdSense allows you to profit from your content.

 

• AdSense is used by a wide range of advertisers: AdSense allows you to select and display ad content that is relevant to your content and audience .

 

• AdSense provides several ad formats: Advertisers can use text, image, HTML, and video ads in a variety of sizes. Because you own the site where these ads will appear, you can select from a variety of ad types and select those that generate revenue.

 

• AdSense offers both transparency and security: Google, as a middleman between the advertiser and the website owner, provides transparency to both parties. Important metrics can be tracked in your Google Analytics account.

 

How does AdSense work?

It’s easy to get started with AdSense. Add a snippet of code to your pages after you’ve created an account. Google will then display ads based on previous searches that are either relevant to your site’s content or of interest to your site’s users.

AdSense operates on a pay-per-click and revenue-sharing model. You will be compensated if your website visitors click on the advertisements. The more traffic your website receives, the more likely it is that the ads will be clicked.

Previously, each page could only have three AdSense ad slots. There is no limit today. However, keep your user’s experience in mind and make sure your page isn’t cluttered with ads.

Here are some different ad sizes you can try on your pages:

 

 

How to Earn Money Through AdSense

Advertisers are charged per advertisement click. Google splits profits with site owners. Site owners receive 68% of the revenue from display ads with AdSense content. Meanwhile, AdSense for search gives site owners 51% of the revenue.

The exact amount of the site owner’s commission is determined by various factors such as competition and the cost per click in the niche. The average commission per click for a website owner is less than $3.

If you have a blog and are wondering how to make money with AdSense, here are six suggestions:

1. Check how much you could earn from AdSense
2. Adhere to AdSense Program Policies and Google Webmaster Policies
3. Create relevant and helpful content for your audience
4. Optimize your site for mobile
5. Have ads above the fold
6. Perform testing and monitor your results.

 

Let’s go through each one:

1. Determine how much money you could make from AdSense.

The revenue potential of each niche topic varies. If you want to calculate the potential earnings of your website:

1. Go to Google’s AdSense homepage.
2. Under Drive Revenue, select your region and category.
3. Indicate your site’s monthly page views using the slider. Google AdSense will show your estimated annual earnings.

Other factors influence your potential revenue, and the figures displayed are only estimates. When you first start using AdSense, you can use this estimate as a starting point.

 

2. Comply with the AdSense Program Policies and the Google Webmaster Policies.

Do not inflate the number of ad clicks on your website. Site owners should not encourage visitors to click on advertisements. You should also avoid clicking on them.

The AdSense Program Policies cover these guidelines. Suspicious clicks on your ads can result in your account being disabled, and you will no longer be eligible to use AdSense.

Adhere to Google’s Webmaster Policies. These are general best practices to ensure that your website does not violate any rules.

 

3. Produce useful and relevant content for your target audience.

The more traffic your website receives, the more likely it is that your ads will be clicked. The most effective way to drive traffic to your website is to create content that your target audience will find useful.

Assume you own a fitness blog that focuses on running. Create content that fitness and running enthusiasts will appreciate.

Do running shoe reviews receive a lot of attention? Consider publishing more of that type of content in the future.

 

4. Make your website mobile-friendly.

Did you know that mobile phones account for 52% of all website traffic? Make certain that your website caters to these users. Your ads should also be responsive so that when viewed on a mobile device, the appropriate ad sizes appear on your site.

 

5. Display advertisements above the fold

The phrase “above the fold” refers to the section of your page that can be viewed without scrolling. Display at least one ad before a user scrolls down the page.

Visitors who left your page without scrolling would have seen — and possibly clicked — on this prominent ad. Ads placed above the fold also get the most attention, so they have a high click-through rate.

 

6. Conduct testing and track your results

Test various ad types to see which ones get the most clicks. You’ll learn which ad sizes and placements work best for your audience by testing them.

In Google Analytics, you can track your progress and analyze your data. Examine your earnings, number of clicks, and page views.
