Google Adsense is one
of the best ways to monetize the niche content for Webmaster and online content
publishers. And to create an Adsense site, all you have to do is have a
free
Google Adsense account, a website or a blog (you can use Blogger or
Wordpress for free blogs), and some interesting content, of course. Once you get
your site up and running, the Adsense ads will be targeted to your content.
Therefore, those looking for your content will come by, read your articles, and
have a high probability of being interested in the targeted ads. Every time
someone clicks an ad, you get paid. That is, as long as you have designed your
site to
maximize Adsense Click Through Rate (CTR).
Let's look at seven tips for creating Adsense sites that create money.
1: Keyword Density
Before you place ads on your site, be sure your keyword density is good. You
will want to be sure that the right kinds of ads are placed on your site. A free
way to determine what the ads will look like on your site is to go to http://www.resultsgenerator.com/adsense/

show on your site.
If you don't like what you see, then you know that you need to make changes to
your keywords. You can get keyword suggestions from Results Generator from
Overture or from the free trial version of Word Tracker.
2: Niche and Focused Content
Not only will the ads be based on your keywords, but they will also be based on
your content. You definitely want your keywords and your content to match as
closely as possible. See

3: Frequent Content Updates
The more information you have the better. Why? Because the more content you
have, the more visitors you get. Many people suggest that you write a new
article every day since no one wants to come back to your site to find the same
old messages.
4: Choose the right Format
Adsense allows you to choose many different ad formats. Research has shown that
wider ads are more successful. The top three formats are:
- 336x280 large
rectangle
- 300x250 medium
rectangle
- 160x600 wide
skyscraper
Additionally, the
468x15 horizontal ad link under the navigation bar is also performs well in some
cases..
5: Choose right Colors
You have the option to create a Google Adsense ad in any color of your choice.
The best thing to do is to make your ad blend well with your site color scheme.
You should make the border color and the background color the same color as your
web site. You will want your text color to either be black or the color of your
main content.
When creating your Google Adsense ads it is recommended to use the color scheme
and style of your website so that the ads blend in well. Ads without background
color and borders perform better than ads within borders with background color.
