Increase Revenue from Google Adsense

Misti Sandefur
Today I'm going to reveal how you can increase your revenue from Google Adsense. You've probably read many articles that tell you the same thing: promote your Web site or blog to increase traffic, pick great keywords and sprinkle them throughout your content and so on. Since you've read several of those tips before, I'm not going to go over them again. Instead, you'll discover something you may or may not know about already. In fact, I didn't know about this until I logged into my Google Adsense account the other day.

As soon as I finished checking my earnings report, I headed over to get the code for a new Adsense unit to add to my blog. Upon clicking on the "Adsense Setup" tab to create the code, Google presented me with the option to earn even more revenue from Google Adsense. This option, "Google Referrals," can be found under "referrals." Google Referrals is similar to an affiliate program. With Google Referrals, you can earn more revenue from Google Adsense by selecting advertisers' products that match your Web site or blog's content. You can select up to 15 products to add as a group, which will rotate in your referral unit. You'll can choose from categories, or you can enter keywords. With that said, let's look at how you can increase your revenue from Google Adsense with their Google Referral program. Do you have a health-related Web site or blog? Add the Good Health Plan link to your group of links. When someone clicks on the Good Health Plan link, and then fills out the form there for a phone follow up you'll earn $4.62. Let's say nine more people do the same thing, then you'll earn a whopping $46.20! But wait, it gets better! Not only can you earn revenue from Google Adsense for leads, but you can earn for product sells as well. In addition to Good Health Plan, add the link to Promotional Products to your group. When someone from your site clicks on that link and places an order with Promotional Products, you'll earn $57.69. Moreover, Promotional Products will also pay $11.54 for anyone you send to them that registers on their Web site. How does a $576.90 revenue from Google Adsense sound? Well, if 10 visitors to your Web site or blog clicks on the link to Promotional Products, and all 10 of them place an order that will be your revenue from Google Adsense for those referrals!

Good Health Plan and Promotional Products are just a few of the many products you can add to your referral unit to increase your revenue from Google Adsense. It may take a little time to update all the units on your Web site or blog, but in the end, it could be worth it. Oh yes, one more thing: when adding advertisers to your Google Adsense referral unit, leave the "pick best performing ads" box checked. By doing this your chosen products may not always show in your referral unit, but this is because Google will select the best performing ads to show in place of one or more of your chosen products. In other words, the chosen product that it takes the place of, may not earn you as much as the ad Google replaces your chosen product with.

    I had trouble with Google shutting down my adsense account because of "fraudulent clicks", whatever that means!
