Google Adsense is a prominent online marketing and money-making method. From business owners to end users, almost everyone has heard about the system wherein the Google Adsense program matches relevant ads to the content of a site, and then pays the owner of the website when visitors click the links.
Owners of a website can register for AdSense and therefore allow advertisements – text, image, and video – on their sites. Google manages the advertisements, paying the website owner per click. However, though Google once had the market cornered, Yahoo has recently come out with their Yahoo! Publisher Network, an equivalent service. Both options are full of possibilities.
For many online users, these ads can be intrusive and irrelevant. However, if used correctly within the context of a website, Adsense ads, as well as ads from any similar programs, can keep visitors to a website up-to-date with relevant links and products, and it can encourage increased ad revenue. Once Adsense or Yahoo! Publisher Network is set up, necessary upkeep is minimal. With Adsense or any similar program installed on a website, every time a visitor goes to a page with an ad on it, the ad will appear as a link to a relevant website or product. For sites containing keywords relating to dogs, the ads may appear as dog leash companies or dog food companies, while for sites containing keywords relating to flowers, the ads may appear as floral arrangements or flower deliver service companies, and the like. Each time visitors to the website click these relavant links, the website owner receives cash.
Ad revenue is the definitive turnkey business, and one of the best ways to make money online with minimal maintenance.
