How does Google Adsense works?

Now that you have a better idea on what is adsense, let’s see how it works in a step-by-step mode.If You Don Know Follow This Link:What is adsense?

Application process

#1 – Create Adsense Account

The first step is to go to http://www.google.com/adsense  and create an account. Your adsense account is associated with a Google Account like the one you use to login to gmail, youtube etc.

#2 – Add Adsense to your website

Before being accepted to the program, Google needs to check that your website adheres to the adsense guidelines. To pass this step, you need to add adsense code to your site so that the Google crawler can access your website’s content.

This is a very important step because as we will see below there are cases that your application may not be accepted.

During this step and until you are fully approved, adsense ads are not shown to your website but they are hidden by default. If your application is accepted, ads will start to show and you will get paid for the clicks.

Have in mind that this is a once off process since after you are accepted as an adsense publisher, you can run adsense on any website you want (provided of course that it is not violating any adsense rules).

#3 – Setup your payment information

The next and final process in the application process is to add your payment information so that you receive payment and the end of the month and once you passed the minimum threshold of $100. Please note that before receiving any money from Adsense, Google will verify your postal address by sending you an envelope with a confirmation code so make sure that the details you provide for your postal address are correct.

Ad placement

Where do the ads appear?

When you are a verified adsense user, you can login to your dashboard and create new ad units. When creating an ad unit you will select the size (for example 336×280), type (images and text), style (text and border colours) and then you will be given a code (javascript) to enter in your website where you want the particular ad to appear. In the space provided Google may decide to show 1 or more ads.

How many adsense ads can you show per page?

In any given webpage, you can show up-to 3 adsense units.

Where should I place my ads?

The general rule is to place the ads where they can be seen by your visitors but without violating any adsense or google webmaster quality guidelines.

You can use these simple rules:

• Place 1 ad unit above the fold in the main content of the website (not sidebar)
• Place 1 ad unit in the sidebar. The 160×600 is very good for placing in the sidebar
• Place 1 ad unit at the end of your page or article (preferably in the main content area)

How does Google decide what kind of ads to show in my website?

That’s not an easy question to answer since there are many factors taken into account before an ad is shown. You can assume that Google will try to show ads that are relevant to your content and interesting for your users. In case you want to block an ad (or group of ads) from showing, you can do so by visiting “Allow and Block Ads” in your adsense account.
