The Secrets of Google Adsense 2008
It is no surprise that Google Adsense still remain the top
favorable income source for most Webmasters. However, there
were considerably a number of Webmasters who are very upset
about the recent changes that Google has enforced that
eventually reduce the publishers’ earnings.
In order to stay unaffected by the constant changes implemented
by Google, a Webmaster has to go back to the basic - creating
value to the users. This article will illustrate how you can go
about creating valuable content and eventually, pulling in at
least hundreds of dollar from Google Adsense.

traffic is from bookmarks.

order to increase your earnings for Adsense, focus on Search

include titles shortening, keywords allocation, article

Advertisements that are placed above the fold also did a good

the horizontal link unit. This type of advertisement appears
like navigation menu and thus, making up most of the clicks in
an average site. Over 70% of my income are generated from this
