Success on Adsense – 5 Quick Tips
As you use Google's AdSense for
more and more time you begin to learn from the mistakes of the
past, and you slowly begin to realize which of your actions kept
your site from reaching its full potential.
But an important part to making a mistake is telling people
about it and teaching them how to avoid making the same mistake.
So this is a list of the top five mistakes people using AdSense
make.
You should read them well, and see if any of them is applicable
to your contents. If it is, you must stop and attempt to fix
such errors as quickly as possible.
The first major no-no that everyone seems to be hitting at one
point or another has to do with breaking the rules. Google's
AdSense is a great program but it relies on you respecting a few
set rules.
The most important thing is not to create "artificial clicks"
through any means possible. Never click your own links, never
ask your friends or close ones to click the links and never, by
any means have your content encouraging the visitors to click
the links. You run the risk of being permanently banned, and
that will definitely damage your revenue.
Failing to comply with Google's
terms could have your AdSense account suspended. And this is why
this rule is by all means the most important one of all. It's
because this is the difference between life or death.
The second thing users get wrong a lot of time is having a bad
color palette for ads. Many times this happens because the
publishers aren't knowledgeable enough to change default color
palettes.
Others just can't seem to spend enough time in changing those
defaults. Having bad ads that stand out is sure to push people
away from clicking; whilst having something which is clearly
visible yet distinctive will.
Third, of course, the position of the ads is probably the key
element you should get right if you want to maximize your
profits with AdSense. This is noted in a lot of places on the
web and Google talks about this as well. Google can provide you
with statistics which illustrate what positions work
particularly well on your website.
Fourthly, banner ads are also a very bad idea if you're using
AdSense. 480x60 type ads are a sure way to drive many people
away as most Internet surfers have developed a natural
resistance to such means of advertising.
And last, but clearly not least, is not taking care of the site
running the ads. Because ultimately it doesn't matter how cool
the site is itself. If it doesn't have updated contents and a
lot of daily visitors it will probably never earn you any
serious AdSense revenues.
So these are the most important five things people get wrong
while using the AdSense program. But of course if you don't like
this means of expressing the issues, here are the top five
things you should do to ensure your AdSense ads are constantly
bringing in that revenue.
Never break Google's policy. Don't make visitors create
"artificial clicks" on your website regardless of the person
doing so or the reason. Make sure your ads have the right colors
that blend in with your site, and make sure they're positioned
in the right places to attract as many customers as possible.
Always try to avoid using banner-like (480x60) adds unless you
really know what you're doing and constantly keep your site
fresh and up to date.
So with that in mind you should be raising your AdSense revenues
in no time. |
