Finally Google Allows You to Change Font Size of your AdSense Ads

I know from ages you were waiting Google to allow this, now you can change your Google AdSense ads font Type and Size and mix it up with your Blog Content. Readers are more likely to click those AdSense ads which look similar to your post content.

We’re now happy to announce the launch of a related feature you’ve been asking for — the ability to change the font size of the text in your ad units. You can now select from small, medium, and large font sizes for ad units on pages in Latin-character languages. Just like with the current font face options, size options appear in every account but will only be applied to ad units on pages primarily in Latin-based characters for now.

The font size you choose will be applied to the body of the ad, with the title scaled appropriately. In order to fit the ad text correctly, the actual font size will vary for each format size, font face, and user-specific settings such as browsers and operating systems. In addition, some formats sizes currently have very limited room, so the font size application will be most apparent in cases where the number of ads appearing in your ad units varies automatically in order to maximize your performance. Here’s an example of what the three font sizes could look like in a 336×250 large rectangle:

What is Blogging and How Bloggers Make Money from Blogging?

Back to the Basics

Whenever someone come across to my blogging thing or whenever I tell someone that I am a blogger and write a make money online blog, then surprisingly a question mark immediately appears on their faces, hands goes up and a little shout “what the hell blogging is, I still don’t know what you are doing man”.  Ha Ha, Blogging is still not very popular on India. The next important question they ask to me is “are you making money out of it?’. Actually in India we believe in doing everything for money, and if it isn’t for money we Indian consider it as waste of time.

So I’m trying to explain here what blogging is and how we make money from our blogs. It’s a efforts to introduce blogging and making money from blogging to a newbie and a journey back to the basic for those who are already blogging and making money out it.

What is a blog?

A blog is a type of website, usually maintained by an individual with regular entries called blog posts consist of commentary, descriptions of events, or other material such as graphics or video. Entries are commonly displayed in reverse-chronological order.

It means:

• A blog is a specific website
• These are organize by writing articles called blog posts
• Blogs usually maintained by Individual persons
• Posts are displayed in reverse chronological order i.e. most recent post at the top.
• Each blog posts can become a discussion to comments left by its readers

From year 2003 more then 113 millions blogs have been created worldwide. The big deal about blogs is that each individual works as a news media source, express his or her opinion which is read by a high number of a small community.  Its now has become a powerful tool to convey your voice and reach a large audience. Most blog readers are other bloggers of similar interest who reads, comments and links each others blogs. A celebratory blogger can now interact with his/her fans through a blog.

A typical blog combines text, images, and links to other blogs, web pages, and other media related to its topic. The ability for readers to leave comments in an interactive format is an important feature of blogs.

How to start a blog?

[1] You can start your own blog for free as there are so many websites which provides you space to create and maintain your very own blog. There is not much of technical or web designing skill required for creating and maintaining a free blog with these sites.  Two most popular website which offer free blogging space are:

Blogger.com

WordPress.com

[2] If you decide to blog but don’t want to use free blog services like blogger.com or WordPress.com then you can setup your blog on a remote host by buying web space form any hosting company, install a blogging software available at WordPress.org, Joomla, Drupal, etc  and start blogging. No doubt you need some technical skill to install and setup blogs on a self hosted space. The basic difference between a self hosted blog and a free blogs are:

• If you chosen a free service then your blog URL would be something like www.yourblog.wordpress.com or www.yourblog.blogspot.com whereas in self hosted blog you can buy any domain of your choice. Like this blog is setup on a self hosted space using WordPress blogging software.

• In a free blogging site you probably not have much control over designing and look of your blog and would have to choose your design from free generic theme or templates available by free blogging service. While in a self hosted blog you can adopt various themes and design to give unique look to your blog.

• If you are blogging to make it a business then free blogging sites will not help you a lot as you would not have much control over selling ad space and monetizing your blog.

How to make money from blogging?

Now the second question how bloggers make money from blogging. But First I want to make it clear that there are various ways you can make money from “internet” but I’m giving you only means to make money from blogging.

[2] Google AdSense

This is the most popular and easy way to make money from blogging. You just need to register with google AdSense program, submit your blog to google for approval and then if they approve your blog for AdSense program then you need to paste Google AdSense codes at space where you want to show Google AdSense ads. Google AdSense display targeted Google ads on your website’s content pages and earn from valid clicks or impressions. AdSense gives you access to Google’s vast network of advertisers, so you can show ads that are suited to your audience’s interests. But do remember before submitting your blog to google for their AdSense Program you must fill in your blog with 20 to 25 articles or blog post on your subjects.

After that you need to optimize your blog for google search engine, gain high page rank and increase visitors from organic search.

Sign Up for google AdSense

[2] Selling Private ads on your blog

Selling ads on your blog is not easy, for this your blog must receive high traffic, high readership. You can sell ads on your blog in various formats. Selling ads on a blog which is on a free blogging platform like blogger.com or WordPress.com is hard. Whereas a blog on self hosted space can place and market private ads more easily.

[3] Paid Review

If your blog has a high page rank then you can submit it to various sites which offer paid reviews. To rank high in google index various products and service sites needs bloggers to write reviews about their products or services and pay high amount in return. This is a great way to earn a little extra money from blogging.

5 Most Common Mistakes People Makes and Get Banned from Google AdSense

In the morning I was reading this very interesting story by Melvin, he explains how Big Daddy Google banned him for violating Terms of Service of using their most popular advertising program Google AdSense.  I know him very well, He is a great guy but some how he did it unintentionally, well he is not the only person who breaches the AdSense Terms of Service, we always overlooked reading terms and conditions in a hurry for signing up to the best money making tool available for bloggers.    

Let me produce here few common mistakes which bloggers generally do and get banned by Daddy Google. One should avoid these mistakes in order to protect AdSense account from getting banned by Google.

[1] Never try to click your own AdSense ads

This is actually what Melvin did and got banned. He was clicking his own Ads. Clicking your own ad inventory is a sin (and I mean it). If you are doing this then you are inviting Google to throw you out of their AdSense Program. Also do not ask your office partners, associates or friends to click on them. Don’t even think of offering incentives for clicks, using automated clicking tools, or other deceptive software. Google is very smart to detect fraudulent clicks 

[2] Don’t change the AdSense code

This is the second most common mistake people do. There are enough means of AdSense optimization and customizations available to change the color, background or border to suit your website needs. Do whatever you want to do leaving aside the code, never fiddle within the ad or the search code. They know it when you do it.

[3] AdSense ads should open on the same page

Don’t change the AdSense code in order to get the targeted link or advertisement to open in a new window. It’s a condition that the target ad should be open on the same page. 

[4] Do not open separate AdSense Account for each website

One AdSense account can serve multiple websites .You do not need to create separate accounts for each websites you own. One account will do. If you think that you will make use of another account if one account is closed down for violation of TOS then I want to tell you that you are wrong, they will find out all the other accounts you own and ultimately will close down all the accounts. They are smarter then you think.

[5] Do not cloak or mask ad elements

You may alter colors and border to blend or contrast ads as per your site requirements. But if you modify or edit the AdSense code where the URL of targeted link is of the same color as the background then you are inviting trebles, here you are hiding important and relevant components of the ads. Also you cannot hide the phrase “ads by Google”. Do not block the visibility of ads by overlapping images, pop ups, tables etc.

Hope you understand and respect what Google wants from you. You may always inquire for help from Google AdSense Support Staff.

These are the five common mistakes which I think can leads to permanent closure of your Account with Google AdSense. If you know more share it in the comment section below. Avoid them and make money.

Learn How Daniel Scocco Launched $10,000 A Month Membership Site

This is not luck by chance sort of story. The man studied the things, worked on it, applied it and turned out. People asking me how the membership site formula works. Well I’m not supposed to tell you how it worked but yes I can show you example which proves that it worked.

Daniel Scocco of Daily Blog Tips applied this success formula of creating membership and succeeds in generating $10000 in just five days.

Daniel Scocco is a blogger from Brazil who used his blog as a launch pad for a membership site. He went through Yaro Starak’s Membership Site Mastermind program, and then went to work to launch his membership site OnlineProfit.com . He did a 5-day launch and brought in OVER 200 members at $48 a month. If you do the math on that, he generated a $10,000 a month income stream in just five days.

What’s Your Story?

CPA Affiliates read it carefully

Heard about those Rags to Riches stories, inspired by that, well may be most of us like to listen to those stories again and again and get motivation. If you ask Gauher Chaudhry, he believes that if you are a good story teller then it may help you sell affiliate products or anything online.

One of the most powerful methods of selling anything online is by telling a story. People are captivated by stories and love listening to them. And if you have a good story to tell, it can not only help you to sell a ton of your products or services, people will *also* pay to hear a story.

Many people have set up *fake* dieting blogs telling a story in order to get people to fill out the dieting CPA offer that can pay the affiliate as much as $40 per lead. These fake blogs are not only unethical and illegal; the FTC has now started to crack down on these types of misleading blogs. But the fact remains that these type of blogs work extremely well because they tell a story.

I know some affiliates who were generating over $100,000 a day in affiliate CPA commissions with these types of blogs. Gauher tells us how you can learn from these *Fake* blogs to sell our affiliate products through a video.

Internet Is Not Just About Making Money

You probably would like to kill me for this, Niche of this blog is “Make Money Online” but today I’m telling you stories about two passionate web masters, who have earned a lot of name fame and respect in web and technology world but never intended to make huge money out it. These stories are not sort of “How I made – - – - – -$ in four months” these stories tells us how couple of ordinary guys come up with some extra ordinary achievements in current web 2.0 and that too for the sake of their passion and love for their work and not at all to pull dollars from somebody’s pockets and building lavishly designed offices. These two guys are;

1. Mr Jimmy Wales -Founder of Wikipedia.org
2. Mr. Craig Newmark -Founder of Craigslist.org

Wikipedia

Have you ever seen and advertisement sort of thing flashing at Wikipedia.org, yes you haven’t seen any, that’s because Wikipedia, the world Largest on line Encyclopedia dose not run any business model. Wikipedia.org has the total number of monthly unique visitors 42,880,000 and if Mr Wales he could earn millions of bucks by just placing a single Google AdSense Ad Inventory.

Jimmy Wales started it all in year 2001 which now has 12 millions articles written by Wikipedia volunteers around the world and still counting. Brainchild of Jimmy is still growing everyday in this cut throat competitive World Wide Web.

Let me tell you how Wikipedia Works

Wikipedia is an encyclopedia written collaboratively by many of its readers. Many people are constantly improving Wikipedia, making thousands of changes per hour, all of which are recorded on article histories and recent changes. Inappropriate changes are usually removed quickly, and repeat offenders can be blocked from editing. Anyone can edit almost any page, whether content, grammar or formatting. So it’s a website created by one man Jimmy Wales and then developed by contribution of thousands of contributors from around the world.

Craigslist

Craigslist.org is an Online Classified Network and it is so big that it has almost die down big news papers classified ad business. You need job, house or pet just search for your term in Craigslist and you will find it right in there. And since these classified are free you can always add up your listing.

Craig Newmark manages it from a tiny home office in San Francisco. Craig Build this site to help community, the initial idea was to list local event which eventually build up later on as the biggest ever Online Classified ad Network.

Both Craig and Jimmy advocate that internet was never made to make money. The communication through internet should always be free. Instead of become Internet Millionaire Mogul these guys keep on working on their project and building a free communication system. Both has get many times some really huge tempting buyout price, they could have sell their projects and buy an island somewhere but then there are always few people who set examples -Its not all about money HONEY.
