Google Adsense Themed Ad Units Can Brighten Up Your Holidays


What are image ads?

Image ads are graphical ads. Unlike traditional banner ads, image ads are also targeted to the appropriate audience, just like text ads. A publisher that has a combination of image ads and text ads has a greater revenue generating potential.

Image ads are only for Adsense for Content pages and not available for Adsense for Search results pages.

There are 5 major formats of image ads. The Leader board, which is about twice the size of a banner ad, the banner image ad, the skyscraper, the wide skyscraper and the medium rectangle. Google's technology determines on a page by page basis whether image ads, text ads, or a combination of both will make you more money and then delivers the appropriate format.

You can choose to run only image ads, but Google recommends selecting both, thereby giving them a better chance to target the right advertising for your page, generating more revenue for you.

Bottom line: taking these two methods together will give you the best chance at making the most revenue.

How to Make Google Adsense Dollars at Writing up.

To get started blogging at writing up, first you'll need to create a Google Adsense account. If you've already done that, you'll just give them the same publisher id you got when you originally signed up with Google Adsense. For more details go to www.google-atm-machine.com. Since you can only have one Google Adsense account, you will always use the same publisher id on every site you add. Next, you'll create an account at writing up and within minutes, start blogging!

You still have to follow the Google Adsense rules as to the type of content not acceptable but other than that you have carte blanche as to what to write about in your blog. Paste your writing up URL into your email signature and every time you send someone an email, you will be referring them to your blog, thus increasing your traffic on writing up.

Comment on other publisher's blogs. If you interact with the blogging community, you are more likely to have your blog read more often. Again, traffic.

Writing up has a list of successful topics you can write about. You don't have to choose from that list of course, but it's quite extensive and if you look it over, you'll probably find something that interests you. They are successful topics because they turn up in search engines a lot. More traffic.

What is “Themed Ad Units”, Simple. They are ads that have special colors and graphics to celebrate the season! For instance, you might see your ad with orange print with a picture of a black cat for Halloween. How about red print with a green mistletoe for Christmas?

The Themed Ad Units are specifically tailored to users in the appropriate locations as determined by their IP address. For instance, a user in the United States might see colors and graphics appropriate to the Fourth of July while users everywhere could see colors and graphics for New Years Day.

Again, it's your choice and your page. You can turn Themed Ad Units on or off by yourself. Just log in to your account, go to the My Account tab. On the Account Settings page, scroll down to the Ad Type Preferences section and click Edit. You can now enable or disable the Themed Ad Units. Click save changes and Voila! Your selection will apply to all your Google Adsense Ads.
