Make money with Google Sites and Google AdSense
Wednesday, June 23, 2010
If you have a
public
site built on Google Sites, you might be interested in earning revenue with Google AdSense. AdSense allows website publishers such as yourself to show targeted ads on their sites and earn revenue from their traffic. It also helps visitors find things they may be interested in based on the content of those sites. Over 1 million publishers use AdSense to monetize the content on the sites they’ve worked so hard to build.
AdSense shows ads relevant to the content of the site and you can easily customize the look and feel of the ads to match your site. For example, if your site is about fashion, you may show ads for shoe designers or clothing stores. If a page on your site is about cars, you may see ads for car dealerships or auto shops on that page. Using filters, you can control the content of the ads you display by choosing to block categories of ads or even specific advertisers.
With the free suite of powerful AdSense reporting tools, you can pull detailed reports that will help you track your revenue and identify opportunities to earn more money. You can see earnings by day, page, domain or specific ad unit and can also use
Google Analytics
to see the source of your traffic and earnings.
Adding AdSense to your Google Site is easy. Just follow these steps:
Click the
More actions
drop-down menu at the top right of your site, and select
Manage site
.
Click
Monetize
on the left side of the page.
Click the
Monetize this site
button.
Create a new AdSense account or use an existing account. Follow the instructions, depending on the radio button you select.
Once you've enabled AdSense, go to any of your site's pages in the edit mode, click
Insert
, and select
AdSense
to insert ads within your page. You can also choose to have ads displayed in your global sidebar.
