Adsense Articles

High adsense articles quality content on your Website can attract visitors as well as provide an opportunity for you to generate advertising revenue.

Content - in the form of well written articles and other useful information - increases your site's value to visitors. Participating in Google's AdSense program on those same pages can give your own profits a "shot in the arm."

For your site to be a good match for AdSense articles, you should have a significant amount of quality content on the site. Publishing articles of interest to your audience is a smart way to do this.

Generally, you have three options for generating quality adsense articles for your site: (a) Write them yourself, (b) hire a writer/reporter, or (c) find content elsewhere. Many site owners do not have the time to write good, relevant articles themselves and do not have the money to hire a writer. These folks turn to content articles

Several Websites (such as SoaringProfits.com and Marketing-Seek.com) and groups (such as adsense Articles Announce Business on Yahoo! Groups) provide content in the form of articles similar to this one. Individual authors will often supply articles as well.

Publishers are allowed to use an adsense articles - no payment required - provided they follow a few rules. Generally, the rules are similar to these:

• The About the Author or resource box must be published as part of the article. The resource box is "payment" for letting a publisher use the article. It is here the author has free rein to advertise or promote products and services. The resource box is generally 4 -10 lines long.

• The article should be published as-is, with change requests made to the author.

• No spamming allowed. If the adsense articles is sent to a list, the list must be voluntary - without automatic email additions.

• No use on offensive sites or in inappropriate newsletters. Guidelines generally list the usual culprits - porn, violence, etc.

Each site, group, and individual has slightly different publication guidelines so be sure to read them before using an adsense articles

Over the past few years, advertisers see less response from banner ads and other online advertisements, making them more reluctant to pay based on CPM (cost per thousand impressions).

This reluctance is reflected in the percentage of total online advertising spent on pay for performance programs. Pay for performance deals have grown from 4% of advertising revenue in 1998 to 21% in 2002 (Note 1).

Pay-per-click programs have largely contributed to the surge in performance deals. Keyword Search has jumped from 6% of total online ad revenues in fourth quarter 2001 to 21% during fourth quarter 2002 (Note 2).

Under the pay-per-click model, advertisers pay only when someone actually clicks on an ad. Two of the most popular pay-per-click programs are Google AdWords articles and Overture. Both place advertisements on their own sites as well as with search results of a few large search engines and directories. Largely, individual site owners could not generate advertising revenue through these programs.

Until Google launched the AdSense articles program for Website publishers.
