12 Steps To Make More Money From AdSense Without Getting Banned

Does anyone argue about the face that Google AdSense ads are the most popular way for the bloggers to make money from their blogs? I guess not.

Of course Google AdSense Ads are on the top of the other competitors and that’s for many reasons one of them that

The formula used by Google AdSense ads to target the users of your site is a huge selling point.

Google AdSense can generate ads on the any subject and display them to the users.

The other very important reason that Google AdSense have the highest PPC (Paying Per Click) rates.

Of course there are some other competitors but it’s an option used by people who were rejected or banned by Google AdSense.

Once you decide to use Google AdSense in your blog or website, you will try most likely to find more about it and search for (“AdSense Tips”) or (“Using AdSense”), then you gonna face couple of completely different angel on the subject.

One of them that you will find people sells their E-Books and courses about the Google AdSense secrets and how to make millions from it.

Second thing you are going to find articles from people is very upset and full of anger because their accounts blocked or banned and all their earnings forfeited.

So the two questions rise here:

 1-Can those course sellers and those guys who sell AdSense secrets and formulas make you rich from it?

 I would answer you simply, if it is that great and they made millions out of it then they would retire with the money they made and will never try to sell it for you for only 20$.

2-Second important question is why the Google AdSense Accounts getting shutdown is or blocked?

That’s a really more interesting question, when Google do that and leave just blanks instead of the ads.

, they don’t need to explain themselves in any way cause most of the cases happened cause the people think that they could cheat on the system and most the cases happened because of the breaking of AdSense T.O.S, but it always hard to be rejected with no explanation.


So let’s take on how to maximize your earnings from Google AdSense without getting breaking the AdSense T.O.S and getting your account shut down.

The Six AdSense Do's

1) Display Your AdSense Ads Above The Fold : 

Above the fold area is the areas that any one visiting your site will be seeing it without having to do any scroll down.

Most of the people online when they search for something, they need instant result and when if they land on a page and it’s not their liking they will move once to another one without giving your site a second glance

So if they are going to leave. So why don’t I put the Ads above the fold cause they might generate some cash for you in the leaving process.

Also worth to mention here that it’s essential to have subscription option like Rss links above the fold cause the visitor might subscribe to come back later.

2) Use the best AdSense units  

According to AdSense and to many people who spent lots of time tracking their ads, it was very clear to them that the large units (336x280 large rectangle and 300x250 medium rectangle) are the best units and the best preforming ads.

3) Report to Google if you see anything suspicious

If you notice anything suspicious like IP Addresses, referral etc. You can report it to Google in Invalid ClicksContact Form

4) Integrate ads with your content

For example if your blog or website uses a green background then use a green background for your ads, if the titles on your blog or website are black then use black titles for your AdSense units. I have found that setting the URLs of the ad units to blue is the most effective as most links on the web are blue by default.

5)  Track your ads

This may not be something you will want to do right off the bat but you can use ad filters and channels to track which ads are generating the most clicks. You can also connect your AdSense account with your Google Analytics account and look deeper into the performance of your AdSense.

6) Have at least one unit display text ads only

When you create an AdSense unit the default setting is for that unit to display both text and image ads. But the nature of your site can determine what type ads whether text or image work best. But there is an interesting question here which is:

Have you ever been on one of your pages and all three AdSense units are showing the same image ad?

I guess you have seen that very often and in this case if the visitor doesn’t click the first Ad they are not going to click the second Ad for the very same product. So , for that reason it’s preferred that you have one unit for the test Ads only so to make sure that you have different Ads for different products on your web site.

These were some few tips about what you should take care of when you are using or planning to use Google AdSense to increase your earnings.so now let’s take a look on the things you should never do.

The Six AdSense Don'ts

1) Never ever click your own ads

Google was quite clear about that, they know your I.P and they know it’s you and they will not tolerate with that… so just don’t do it and never do it.

2) Never ask someone to click your ads

Yes even if you in some country and your friend is in another country. Just don’t ask your friends to click your ads. If Google smell something odd with few clicks on your site they will know about it.

3) Never place anything near your ads that would invite a click

Never place images and texts around the Ads inviting people to click them or this will sure get you banned. Also try to make your images away from your AdSense. Simply stick to Ad placement policies

4) Don't change the AdSense code

Do not make any changes to AdSense code in any way, basically you are not allowed to add anything to, or remove anything from the code you generate in your AdSense account.  

5) Don't forget to have a privacy policy

One of the terms set in AdSense T.O.S is the requirement for all sites using their ads to have a Privacy Policy page. We will cover that in a separate post.

6) Two more that deserve a mention

Don't submit a site containing AdSense to traffic exchanges for example Traffic Swarm or Smiley Traffic it is against the AdSense T.O.S. - Don't use AdSense ads on adult sites or sites of an adult nature.

If you have any specific questions you can drop a comment below or look for help in the Official Google AdSense Forum.

Remember you can use all these steps, but if your site is not getting traffic there will be no one there to click the ads so work on building a quality website or blog and you will see the earnings quickly grow.

Now it's your turn to tell me,What tips have you used to increase your AdSense earnings ?

Make Money On Blogger With Google Affiliate Ads

For bloggers AdSense is the main option when it comes to making money from blogs.In fact AdSense is the only option when it comes to target advertising on your blog.There are two reasons behind this, first under the AdSense terms and conditions (T.O.S.) you may only use one target advertising service on your blog or website.By target advertising what is meant is an Advertiser like AdSense that crawl your blogs content and deliver Ads based on the content of each page.The second reason AdSense is the only option for target advertising is the competition is at best poor.You can only use one so the smart money is on AdSense and not a competitor like Bidvertiser.

Types Of Ads That Can Be Used With AdSense

Directly Selling Advertising On Your Blog - You can sell ad space on your blog, you can sell the ad space directly or use an outside agency to sell the advertising for you.The outside agency like Buy sell ads provide you with "Advertise Here" banners and when people click they buy that space from the agency.The agency is a middleman and takes a cut for it's services.The problem with selling ad space or more to the point getting people to buy the ad space is you need traffic and lots of it.If your blog is not getting a few thousand page views a day its likely to be a waste of time as you wont find buyers.

Affiliate Advertising On Your Blog - Affiliate advertising works in a similar way to selling ad space, you place banner ads on your blog for other websites.The big difference is when you sell ad space you are paid Weekly/Monthly or for impressions with affiliate marketing you get paid when someone clicks and ad on your blog and buys a product or spends money on the advertisers website.You will get paid a commission and the commissions vary for each advertiser.

Some of the options for affiliate advertising include the popular Amazon which can be added automatically for Blogger users.Google have their affiliate branch (Of course) the Google option is the Google affiliate network and this can be connected with your AdSense account.In fact their is no shortage of affiliate marketplaces such as Clickbank and Commission Junction to name a few.

Search Targeted Advertising - While i do display affiliate ads from both clickbank and the Google affiliate network the advertiser i make most from after AdSense is Chitika.Chitika ads work on a Pay Per Click system like AdSense but because they target the ads in a different way you can use them along with AdSense.

How Chitika Ads Work - While AdSense crawl your blog and base the ads on the keywords and phrases used Chitika ads are based fully on search traffic.Once you Sign Up For Chitikaand add the code to your blog ads are only displayed to search traffic.So if someone finds this blog by searching Google for Blogger Tips they will be shown ads based on Blogger tips, if someone comes to this blog in any other way Chitika ads will not be displayed (You have the option to use filler ads).

I have Chitika ads in the sidebar of this blog right now - If you came here via a search engine you will see them, if you came directly or via any other link or feed they are not visible.

Are You A Poor Blogger? Here’s How Your Blog Can Make You Richer !

You can be considered a poor blogger if you’ve been in blogging business for over six months and you cannot make at least a hundred dollars per month. If you have been investing your time, money and intellect into your business and yourAdSense account is still in the reds, then you don’t have a success story.

How about having been on the Net for over two years and your Google AdSense account is no where near $50? Your guest is as good as mine. Blogging is supposed to be a full time business to a lot of people who are doing it; and when for months and years no tangible income comes into your pocket you are a poor blogger.

I know some would like to criticize me by saying that blogging success is not only measured by the amount of money one gets. They may want to excuse themselves by saying that success could be measured in terms of the number of people who have benefited directly or indirectly from your content.

But providing quality content and making others happy but you end up a debtor, with no money to renew your Internet subscription, pay your domain and hosting renewals and even feed yourself still does not translate to a success story.

If you are still in the categories mentioned above, here are a few things you could do to change you story:

6 Tips To Help Monetize Your Blog

1. Advertise yourself -  people are looking for help on several areas of difficulty. You already have a niche where you can provide solution to people’s problems. Why not take it further by advertising yourself on sites where people meet to look for help? Some of the sites where you tell people what you can do and get hired in fiverr, tenbux, tenrr dollar3, zeerk, etc. You can leverage on the site’s traffic and popularity and make your money to fund your blog and take care of other expenses.

2. Resell - Go and join established sites with recurrent service charges and become a reseller there. You can join sites like hostgator.com, godaddy.com, namecheap.com, etc. and begin to sell hosting packages to the numerous visitors to your blog.

3. Write for money -  the concept of your blog may not allow you to directly write for money. But as you see you blog grow, you need to join sites that allow you to do reviews and be paid for doing so. Some of them include: reviewme.com, sponsoredreview.com, loudlaunch.com, helium.com, thewittery.com, etc

4. Expand your scope -  Add other areas of interest to your blog. You can add solution providing segment to it. Instead of looking for who to pay you, why not be a little more creative. Create a part where people can come and advertise what they can do for money and take 5 to 10% of their charges. Pooling the small charges together would certainly make you richer. You provide the platform, others come to make money with your platform and the consumers get their satisfaction. A kind of win win situation for everyone.

5. Sell ad space - you can also money some revenue by providing a space for advertisers to place their ads. You either get involved in direct ad use advertising networks like Google adsense, Chitika, Kontera, Exitjunction, dynamic oxygen, etc.

6. Afiiliate programmes -  Create a page for your affiliate programmes and write a special presell on them. When your readers buy the products through your link you receive some percentage payment on the profit made. With few affiliate programmes you can get reasonable income right there on your blog.

Applying the right strategy and creative thinking can help get you out of the poverty zone as a blogger. When you use your quality content and professional looking blog to attract readers, you use your business management acumen to make income out of the high traffic you get.

SEO Checklist Before You Start A New Blog

To me it’s still amazing that a cms like Wordpress can build you a professional looking site in a few minutes, my first site was built in Microsoft Frontpage and involved many long nights and a few tears! However just because it’s now easier to build a website doesn’t mean it’s easier to create one that is ultimately successful and makes money, because the success of a site is often down to the competition it faces from similar sites in the marketplace. The problem is that many webmasters assume that just because they have an attractive site with quality content that they will automatically rank at the top of Google for their chosen keywords. I’m not saying that good content won’t rise to the top but it can take quite a while to happen on its own and if your competition is established and also providing the information people are looking for where does that leave you?
