AboutDuring
the summer of 2003, Google introduced a new ad delivery mechanism for
website publishers (both large and small) known as Google AdSense.
Earlier Google AdWords ads were only available for publishers with more
than 20 million impressions per month. AdSense can now cater to small
niche website publishers by bringing in content targeted advertisements
to their websites.
Ad FormatsAdSense provides the following ad formats or types:
- Standard 468x60 banners (upto 2 ads)
- Leaderboard 728x90 banners (upto 4 ads)
- Skyscraper 120x600 (upto 4 ads)
- Inline Rectangle 300x250 (upto 4 ads)
Publishers can also specify their own default banners for each of these formats.
UsageGoogle
AdSense website is easy to use. You can rotate a maximum of 4 color
combinations for the ad displays to match your website colors. AdSense
report shows the number of impressions, number of clicks and amount
generated on a daily basis.
The same Google
AdSense code can be used anywhere within your website or any other
website that follows the AdSense guidelines. The code can be easily
used in includes in web pages. If the web page, which displays the
Google ad, is already indexed by Google, the AdSense code will
automatically display ads relevant to the content of the page. If the
page is not indexed, it shows default ads until the page is indexed.
RatesDue
to non-disclosure agreement, AdSense rates and payments are not
disclosed by any publisher. However, the payments are all via CPC
campaigns, where the cost per click varies with each advertiser,
ranging from 5 cents to as high as $15 per click. Google AdSense
statistics reveal the total exposures, daily clicks and daily payout
amount to the publisher. Google also does not disclose their percentage
share of the income.
If your site content
falls under one of the high paying categories, the payouts are very
good because of the higher CTRs due to content targeting. Most
webmasters have reported better than average payouts when compared to
other affiliate programs or CPC ad networks. Some of the categories
that are known for good rates are:
- Automotive Industry
- Web Hosting
- Online Gaming
- Financial Markets
