THE DO'S AND DON'T OF GOOGLE ADSENSE

THE DO'S AND DON'T OF GOOGLE ADSENSE.

1. Consistency is Good.

Google in my opinion is too, er, nosy, yes, that's right, nosy. Here's why, when I first signed up for a Google Adsense account, I got roughly 2 -3 dollars from the ads a day. A few weeks later, I got more visitors, and i got around 30 - 50 dollars. Then, they emailed me and said this:
In furry, I had about 340 Dollars US sitting in my Adsense Account, my first reaction was, W.T.F.

So, I emailed them again,
And they merely replied:

Hello Anthony,

Thank you for your email.
Now, clearly you can learn from this lesson that Google watches your account VERY closely, and if they notice that there's something "fishy" going on with your account, they say "Bye Bye" to your account. I still insist till today that I never did anything against the Google Rules and TOS. So, If you suddenly have a jump in the number of Clicks that you get, you might just get screwed over by Google. That's why you always want a steady stream of visitors, or else, you'll risk having your account suspended, like what happened to me.

2. Keywords are the KEY.
I mentioned earlier that Google tends to not accept blogs for the Adsense Program, here's why: Blog's as you know, give out a wide variety of information, one day, the author could be talking about Goose Repellent, the other he could be talking about Computers. The was Adsense works is that it scans your page for keywords, then applies those keywords into the advertisements, therefore, if you're website is all about Computers, you'll have computer-based ads, if it's about goose repellent, then, you'll, er, have goose repellent ads. The thing about ads, is, that they all aren't worth the same price per click. So to say, if you have a computer ad, and someone clicked on it, you'd probably get $2 for that, on the other hand, if you had a Goose Repellent site, you'd get 2 cents for that click. So, if you had a blog, then you could talk about certain keywords and you’d get more revenue, as opposed to a goose repellent site, which cant change their content.
Therefore, it's important that you maximize your revenue by using "expensive" keywords, such include:

Web Hosting - 2 - 8 dollars a click
Computers 1 -3 dollars a click

So, if you website is technology oriented, you’ll tend to get more money than those who use a Goose Repellent site.

In addition, Google checks the amount of times your page uses a certain words therefore, if you have the word “cpu” 100 times on a site, it’s very likely that your advertisement will inceldue something that has to do with CPU’s.

You can use this handy Keyword density checker to see how many words and stats on you keyword density of a website. www.ranks.nl/tools/spider.html . Limit is a 40k website.

3. DO NOT click on your own ads.
Seriously, if you click on your own ads, Google automatically logs you IP address, and then it notifies a moderator, then, well, you’d be pretty screwed. Because you aren’t allowed to click on them, and if you’re the sneaky type, you’d go to computers with different IP’s and click on the ads yourself. It’s a good idea, but, again, Google also monitors how frequently the ads come from the same IP, therefore ,even if it’s not your computer, but you use it to click from it frequently, Google will notice, Google tends to go for a wide variety of IP’s to ensure that it is actually getting real visitors.
