Adsense: Why is only one ad unit displaying ads?

The multiple ad units system detects the number of ad units that are on your page, and automatically serves unique ads to each ad unit. The system is optimized for pages that have highly targeted ads available - as a result, you may sometimes see that only the first ad unit contains ads. As our ad inventory changes, or if your page content changes, you may start seeing more ads on your page.

When only one ad unit is displaying ads, any additional ad units will display as transparent boxes, or will display the alternate ad or color that is defined in their ad code. Please note that each instance of ad code must have the alternate URL or color specified in order to display alternate content.

Guide to Google AdSense Success

To know why Adsense is essential for your content sites is to know first how this works. The concept is really simple, if you think about it. The publisher or the webmaster inserts a java script into a certain website. Each time the page is accessed, the java script will pull advertisements from the Adsense program. The ads that are targeted should therefore be related to the content that is contained on the web page serving the ad. If a visitor clicks on an advertisement, the webmaster serving the ad earns a portion of the money that the advertiser is paying the search engine for the click. The search engine is the one handling all the tracking and payments, providing an easy way for webmasters to display content-sensitive and targeted ads without having the hassle to solicit advertisers, collect funds, monitor the clicks and statistics which could be a time-consuming task in itself.

It seems that there is never a shortage of advertisers in the program from which the search engine pulls the Adsense ads. Also webmasters are less concerned by the lack of information search engines are providing and are more focused in making cash from these search engines. The first reason why Adsense is essential for content sites is because it already has come a long way in understanding the needs of publishers and webmasters. Together with its continuous progression is the appearance of more advanced system that allows full ad customization. Webmasters are given the chance to choose from many different types of text ad formats to better complement their website and fit their webpage layout. The different formatting enables the site owners the possibility of more click through from visitors who may or may not be aware of what they are clicking on. It can also appeal to the people visiting thus make them take that next step of looking up what it is all about.

This way the people behind the Adsense will get their content read and making profit in the process. The second reason is the ability of the Adsense publishers to track not only how their sites are progressing but also the earnings based on the webmaster-defined channels. The recent improvements in the search engines gives webmasters the capability to monitor how their ads are performing using customizable reports that has the capacity to detail page impressions, clicks and click-through rates. Webmasters and publishers can now track specific ad formats, colors and pages within a website. Trends are also easily spotted. With the real-time reporting at hand, the effectiveness of the changes made will be assessed quickly. There would be time to sort out the contents that people are making the most clicks on. The ever-changing demands would be met while generating cash for the webmasters and publishers. The more flexible tools are also allowing webmasters to group web pages by URL, domain, ad type or category, which will provide them some accurate insight on which pages, ads and domains are performing best. The last and final reason is that the advertisers have realized the benefits associated having their ads served on targeted websites. Thus increasing the possibility that a prospective web surfer will have an interest in their product and services.

All because of the content and its constant maintenance. As opposed to those who are no using Adsense in their sites, they are given the option of having other people do their content for them, giving them the benefit of having successful and money-generating web sites. Adsense is all about targeted content, the more targeted your content is, the more target the search engines’ ads will be. There are some web masters and publishers who are focused more on their site contents and how best to maintain them rather than the cash that the ads will generate for them. This is the part where the effectiveness is working its best. There was a time when people were not yet aware of the money to be achieved from advertisements. The cash generated only came into existence when the webmasters and publishers realized how they can make Adsense be that generator. In those days, the content were the most important factors that is taken quite seriously. It still is. With the allure of money, of course.

Should You Blog?

There are many people online that create and manage blogs. You might be wondering if you should join in on this fun and rewarding writing adventure. There are a few things that you are going to have to think about before and while you are running a blog.

Before you blog

If you are thinking about blogging, there are a few things that you are going to have to think about. The first is what you are going to blog about. A hobby is a good place to start. If you have a love for trains, you can tell your readers everything there is to know about creating train layouts and what trains are good for your budget. It's really a personal choice as to what will work best for you and what you want to tell people about the most. If you don't like what you are doing as far as your blog, you will probably not keep up with it after you start it. This is something that happens a lot. You will also want to decide if you are going to create a personal blog or a more professional blog. If you want to look like a professional, you will need to treat your blog differently than someone that is just blogging for the fun of it.


While you are blogging

If you decide that you are going to blog, you have to do a few things in order to keep your blog looking nice and fresh. Figuring out when you want to write is also a must for a blog. You will need to write a few times a week or at least once a week. Have a plan as to what part of your subject you are going to write about. This will help you keep good ideas coming in and a plan for the blog itself. This will also help you to keep your readers coming back for more. The more valuable information that you can give your readers, the more of them that will keep coming back to you.

There are a ton of blogs out there, but not all of them are going to be good. There are to many people that start one and let it sit. The best thing to do is really plan what you are doing and your blog will be the best that it can be. If you are doing this, then you will be happy with your blog as well as the amount of people that stop by and see it.

I Need More Hits for my Website

In today’s web 2.0 world you might look at your website and think it needs a complete overhaul because you are not receiving a lot of hits. You are probably thinking to yourself, “is my website technologically advanced enough to draw people to it?” In a nutshell I can answer simply, it does not matter.

It doesn’t matter because it is the content of the website that will get visitors to go there, tell their friends about it, and keep them coming back. Take the social network website MySpace. I would hardly call it a Mecca of technology. In fact compared to other social networks it doesn’t compare on many levels, however it ease of use and what it offers is what makes it the #1 social network on the Internet.

I won’t say that the advice I am about to give you will make you the next MySpace or even close to it, but if your website has something that people like they will go to it, tell their friends and keep going back.

Your website is about something. You could be selling a product, telling about a service that you offer or you could just be posting information about your favorite NFL football team. Whatever it is that makes you an expert on the subject. If you weren’t an expert you wouldn’t have a website for it.

You need to translate your expertise into written format and pass that knowledge along to others. For example, let’s say you are a professional interior painter. You have a website that tells about your services, costs and so on. You want more people to learn about your business and what you have to offer. Since you are a professional painter that means you are an expert. Therefore in order to draw people to your website you need to pass on some knowledge so they will take you seriously and visit.

People are always looking for tips on how to do something and as a professional painter you can give tips on what it takes to keep the walls cleaned how to repair small holes and so on. So our first step in getting people to your website is to write informational and education articles about your expertise. Your articles should be 400 to 700 words in length and should be written in such a way that the reader will take away from it ideas and solutions (exactly like what this article is doing for you).

Now that you have your article written, at the end of the article you need to add what is called a resource box. A resource box informs the reader as to who wrote the article and how you can get in touch with them should they have any further questions or interests. Your resource box would something like this, “Jane Doe has been a professional interior painter for 15 years. You can learn more about Jane at here website {insert your web address here}.” Do you see how this resource box informs the reader of who you are and how to get to your website?

The final step is to submit this article to what are called article directories. These article directories allow you to submit your article free of charge complete with your resource box. These directories receive tens of thousands of hits daily of people looking for good quality content and here you are giving it to them free of charge, aren’t you a nice person.

All you have to do from this point forward is repeat these steps on a daily basis, writing and submitting one article each day and you will be receiving thousands of daily hits to your website. Make sure you have on your home page an area where you can let visitors enter their email address to receive your newsletter even if you don’t have one yet. It would be a waste to get all of these visitors to your website and have nothing to show for it.

Few things you want to look for in a web host

Now it's time to look into getting a web host. I know there are literally thousands of web hosts out there and the decision can be daunting. Here are a few things you want to look for in a web host.
  • Able to host multiple domains under one account
  • Plenty of storage space
  • Plenty of monthly transfer
  • Able to have multiple email addresses
  • Able to have multiple MySql databases
  • Customer service available through web, email, or phone

How to Start your own Article Directory

 Are you tired of reading how to write and submit articles to a directory? Would you like to have your own article directory? Well this
article is for you.

There's a few things to consider before putting an article directory together. Do you want to make a niche directory catering to only certain subjects or do you want to cover every topic under the moon? This is where our first requirement comes into play.

Deciding on a domain name. If you’re going for the niche directory you're going to want to possibly include the niche in the name of the directory.

Let's say you're into cars, then you would want your domain to be something like: articlesaboutcarsthatgoreallyfast.***

or cartopicsthatiknowabout.***

or something like that.

These are just examples I'm using to illustrate he use of names. You probably would not want a domain name that long. If your going for the catch all you can use something with article in it, like articlesabouteverythingimaginable.*** Again just illistration purposes. The domain name you choose doesn't have to have the word article in it, mine doesn't. There are resources on the Internet which allow you to plug in keywords and it will spit out possible domain names from your keywords.

Now it's time to look into getting a web host. I know there are literally thousands of web hosts out there and the decision can be daunting. Here are a few things you want to look for in a web host.

  • Able to host multiple domains under one account
  • Plenty of storage space
  • Plenty of monthly transfer
  • Able to have multiple email addresses
  • Able to have multiple MySql databases
  • Customer service available through web, email, or phone


Search the Internet for web host reviews for more information. There are plenty of resources with ranking systems for web hosts. You could also email some web site owners to see who they use and if they are happy with them.

Next the software to run our directory. I use Article Dashboard. Article Dashboard is free software to run your own directory. I'm not saying this is the only software out there, I'm just saying that it's great and free, you can't beat that!

After following the directions for installing the directory it's time to get some articles. Lots of article directories allow use of their articles as long as you keep all links the same and give credit where it's due. Just check each site's policy for exact rules relating to the use of their content. Another way is to read articles and contact the original author and invite them to write and send articles to your site. You can also sign up for sites that "push out articles" to you. This is a great way to get lots of articles quickly but it is also a good idea to get some original content.

Well this is about all for now, please visit my site for more information, free articles and Cajun Info. Please don't hesitate to contact me if you have any questions.

Increase traffic with blog directories

Before you can monetize your blog, you need to rank your blog well in this online industry. And to rank it well, you can't neglect the importance of submission of your blog to blog directories.

Before you can monetize your blog, you need to rank your blog well in this online industry. And to rank it well, you can't neglect the importance of submission of your blog to blog directories.
Blog directories are a collection of useful resources that are available online. Unlike search engines that deliver your site to a visitor only when a particular keyword search is made, a blog directory, perhaps lists your blog or site permanently in its database and shuffles its position and rank as per your blog's traffic over the years.
The various advantages a blog directory offers are:
  • Free traffic
  • Valuable backlink
  • Increases your Pagerank
Perhaps, a blog directory is very useful for new blogs with Pagerank 0. Since, these blog directories have a Pagerank of 4 or higher. This means you are getting a backlink to your blog from a PR4 site, absolutely free. A similar backlink, whereas would cost somewhere around $100 per month. Imagine if you submit your blog to 10 blog directories per day, it would mean 10 valuable PR4 or higher backlins for that day.
This would increase your Google PR in its next update. Moreover, you stand to receive free traffic from them as well.
Below is the list of few top blog directories on world wide web. Try submitting your blogs to them for FREE.
All the best!

            How to Make Yourself Taller- 4 Ways to Make Yourself Taller Today

            Would you like to know how to make yourself taller today? Many people are very self conscious about their appearance and feel that they are not tall enough. This can affect one's self esteem. The methods described here are proven techniques that can be implemented immediately to make yourself appear taller.

            Would you like to know how to make yourself taller today? Many people are very self conscious about their appearance and feel that they are not tall enough. Being able to add inches to their height could bring confidence to some of these people. A person may want to appear taller for an important event such as a first date or a job interview. The methods described here are proven techniques that can be implemented immediately to make yourself appear taller.


            • Don't slouch This one should be obvious, but it is very important and is one method that can be done immediately. Walking with a straight back and your head held high will not only make you appear taller, but also make you look more confident and over time will improve your posture. Conversely, slouching can actually cause your spine to shorten! This method on how to make yourself taller cannot be overlooked.


            • Wear the "V" Wear a "V" neck shirt or sweater instead of a regular T-shirt. This will make your neck look longer and add to the illusion of height. Stay away from turtle neck tops as they will do the opposite and make you appear shorter.


            • Lose the locks Keep the hair away from the neck. This tip is similar to the "V" neck tip as long hair makes the neck appear shorter, which in turn makes the person look shorter. For our goal of increasing height, guys should keep their hair short and women with longer hair should have it up and away from the neck area.


            • Go vertical Most people have heard that vertical lines helps overweight people look slimmer. This is also helpful when trying to add the illusion of height. Try to wear shirts that have visible seams or thin stripes. Even a tie can help make you appear taller. Choose one that stands out instead of one that is the same color or "blends in" with your shirt.

            How to effectively earn money on the internet.

            Using a Niche that corners 30% of search engine's monthly searches, you can earn a residual monthly income.

            Every single day people do thousands of searches on search engines trying to find that perfect way to supplement their income or, ultimately, to leave their day to day job and do it full time.

            Unfortunately, many people also never succeed and either give in totally or move on to another program that offers insane amounts of earnings each month. Many of these programs require you to buy products, sell things or many other equally impossible tasks so you can earn some money. You
            eventually find yourself spending a lot of time promoting the product and getting little or no return at the end of the month for your hard work.

            I however, have found a program that pays, and pays handsomely if you are prepared to work on it.

            As mentioned earlier, this program utilises a niche in the search engines that is currently occupying 30% of all searches done on the internet: People Searching. Finding out details about people you are looking for; be it debtors, long lost friends, relatives for family reunions, the demand for this is unlimited. With such a large scope of searches done, the market does not become saturated like many other "money making" programs.

            You might have heard of this program, it is called Acme People Search. Don't worry if you have never heard of it, I had never heard of it before I joined.

            Let me give you some more details about this program. The founder of this program is called Tissa Godavitarne and he has taken the internet by storm, making millions and then turning around and showing others his system and letting them join and make money with him as well.

            The concept is pretty easy to understand, you join up with the program and you get your own people engine website installed with your own affiliate links (The website has seven different income streams for you) and here is the catch: you have a free version as well as a paid version. The
            free version, which is step one, can earn you $5 per person you refer, and that can take a long time to build up to the minimum payout level of $200. Step two costs you $10 per month (7 day free trial) for your own domain name and web hosting for your own search engine, and step three costs you an extra $29.95 per month. (First 30 days free trial!) If you sign up for all three steps, you can get an impressive $30 per person you refer to join up under you! Tissa even starts up your own advertising program for you and then credits your account with $125, which is effectively your step two and step three payments for 4 months! You then have to only earn another $75 to reach minimum payout. This does not include obviously the other streams of income that can increase your earnings.

            3 Easy Ways to Earn Money Online Working At Home

            Need cash? Whether you need cash to help make ends meet or to pay for extras for your kids, here are 3 easy ways to earn money online that aren't scams.

            Earning money online working from home doesn't take a whole lot of extra work. There are 3 simple ways that you can earn extra money whether you work all day or are a stay at home mom. Below I outline 3 ways I earn extra cash while maintaining my stay at home mom status.



            Blogging is a great way to earn money online

            Do you blog? Who doesn't these days. Starting your own blog and signing up for Adsense and other affiliates can add some cash to your household finances. Blogger and WordPress are both free sites to start a blog, but many pro bloggers do advise that you get your own domain hosting, which is very affordable. Maintaining several blogs will help boost your Adsense earnings, but it is a bit more work. Don't feel that you have to make a blog posting everyday, but at least post an entry a few times a week to keep the interest of your readers. Develop a following and query companies for products to review or for giveaways on your blog to help boost traffic and make your blog a happening place to visit.

            My own experience with blogging: I've been blogging for about a year and a half and am very close to meeting the payment threshold for AdSense. Yahoo ads do have a lower threshold, so bear that in mind. Also, some bloggers do like Squidoo, which has some revenue sharing and can work well for some people.



            Writing Content can be a fun and rewarding way to earn money online

            I write for Associated Content mainly, though I occasionally write content for Textbroker and Bukisa. I have even ghostwritten for a friend who needed help with his overflow. Writing content, if it comes naturally to you, is fun and easy way to earn money online. For quick money, try Associated Content and submit for upfront payment. For Bukisa, you submit for views only, but they currently pay at the rate of $3.45 per 1,000 views. Views can add up quickly if you write about popular topics. Writing online content can help fill in the gaps when you cannot make ends meet, or, at the very least, it can help pay for the extras that make life more enjoyable.

            My own experience with content writing: My AC earnings and other writing money is helping me to pay for half of our vacation this year.





            Earn cash by taking surveys online - Many companies pay via PayPal

            Legitimate survey companies about and before signing up with a survey company to earn money online from home, be sure to check their ranking at Surveypolice.com. There, users rate survey companies and the higher the rank, the better. Remember, though, that individual experiences will vary. Read through for recent bad reports and make your determinations from there. It can take time to earn enough points on some sites to cash in for a monetary reward, though many companies pay via PayPal these days. Be sure you have a PayPal account that is verified and have a dedicated email account solely for survey companies. This helps you not miss out on surveys because some invites could look like spam. Survey companies generally don't have an instantaneous turnaround when it comes to payment, but most generally pay you within a month or two.

            My own experience with taking surveys to earn cash: I am signed up with dozens of survey companies at the moment, which helps keep them coming in at a nice pace. I don't qualify for every one, of course, but it is not impossible to earn a few extra hundred dollars per year taking surveys online.

            How to Make a Website

            Desire to make a website but just don't know? It's not a difficult feat to accomplish. With a little time and effort you can learn how to make a website like the pros.

            1. Purchase a domain name for your website. Your domain name will lead people to the website you make. Example: http://www.yournamehere.com. Netfirms offers domain names for as little as $6.99 per year.

            2. Select a web hosting company to host the website you will make. The web hosting company will provide you with space to make your website on the internet. It's kind of like renting a room to live in on the internet. The web hosting company is like the landlord of your home on the internet. You will pay them a small monthly fee for the space they provide. Fees are as low as $3.95 per month. Some companies charge more, some less. See Resource section below for a list of web hosting companies and their rates. For a side by side comparison of web hosting providers visit the thetop10bestwebhosting.com website.

            3. Log into the control panel of your web hosting site to begin making your website. Locate the "Site Editor." The wording may slighty vary. Locate the "File Directory" and begin making pages for your website. This may require a little knowledge of HTML code. See Resource section below to get free HTML tutorials online.

            4. Submit your website address to search engines when you have finished making your website. This will help people find your website. Otherwise you can have a good website, but no one will know how to find it. If you don't want to submit your website to all of the search engines right away, at least submit it Google. It will ony take a few seconds to complete their free search engine submission form.
