Google AdSense is a hot topic in the internet marketing arena these days and for good reason. AdSense is dramatically increasing the revenue generated by content-based websites.
If you don’t already know, AdSense is the publisher side of Google’s advertising program. Website and blog publishers can place AdSense code on their content pages that will automatically display ads related to the content on that page. If you own a website or blog and you place the code on your content pages, you can pay every time someone clicks on a Google AdSense ad. One thing that makes Google AdSense so powerful is that clicks can be worth anywhere from a few cents to several dollars per click.
If you already have a website packed with quality content, AdSense would be a perfect match. However, if your website is currently low on content, there are ways to bolster it with quality content. Not only is quality content a great way to drive customers to your site and keep them coming back, you can also generate consistent good income using Google Adsense.
When adding content to your website, please note that it is against Google’s Terms of Service to create pages for the sole purpose of generating income from adsense. To stay out of trouble, be sure to add other features to the page, like a couple of content-related affiliate ads or a form for visitors to sign up for your email list.
The best content is what you create yourself, such as product or article reviews, but if you just don’t have time to write everything yourself, there are thousands of articles with reprint rights available that you can use on your website for free. . Articles like this can be found on sites like http://www.ezinearticles.com and http://www.articlecity.com. Most of these articles have only a few restrictions, such as that you must leave the article intact and leave the authors resource box with the article.
Reprint articles are great, but one problem with them is duplicate content. Search engines are really cracking down on duplicate pages. When using reprinted articles, it’s best to add additional content to the page, preferably keyword-rich content. This may take a long time, but it is worth it. To save time, I created a PHP article manager (which I recently made publicly available at [http://www.articlebooster.com]) which is template based and search engine friendly which automatically inserts my Google AdSense code as well as keyword rich content into my articles every time I add one, (which keeps me from getting into content trouble duplicate). I also added a content rotator that makes it easy to rotate affiliate ads and banners on my article pages.
If you don’t use AdSense on your content site, sign up now. And if you’re not using quality articles to create a content site that will get more visitors and keep them, start it right now, you’ll be glad you did.
