Adsense tips – Adsense section targeting

by Tricia

Are you dissatisfied with how your Adsense ads are performing on your site?

Well one way to safely view the ads on your site the way people from other areas and countries might be seeing them is to use the Adsense Preview Tool. On the Adsense site you’ll be able to find the tool for Internet Explorer. You can also download this aAdsense preview tool for Firefox if that’s your preferred browser.

If you decide that you don’t like the ads that are being served to your pages you could go into your Google adsense account and block certain advertisers if you’d like, but there might be a better way to get ads that truly fit your sites content.

Try using Adsense Section Targeting.

When you use Adsense Section Targeting you can tell adsense to only draw ads from the contents in your posts. Plus you can use the adsense targeting code to block out your sidebars and or your sites header.

I’ve blocked the sidebars on all of my sites because there are so many things that say blog in the sidebars that for a while it seemed that all the ads had something to do with blog or blogging no matter which site I had them on or what was being discussed in the posts.

If you want to try it out for yourself go to the Adsense help pages and visit the Adsense section targeting information.

If that link doesn’t work for you try:

Look in the adsense help section when you’re signed in – help -> working with my ads -> improving performance -> Using features wisely -> Emphasize important content with section targeting -> click the link in the description in that page that says “The Full Instructions” to learn how to add some code to your template to target certain sections for ads or how to block other sections of your site or page.

If Adsense section targeting doesn’t give you enough control over your ads try using Adsense referrals as well. You can have ads that display Google products and or products from 100’s of other companies and services. You can even pick each product.

Too much work?

by Tricia

Would it be terrible of me to say I have too much work?

I started out with my first website in 1995 and believe it or not that website is still in existence. In fact it’s my most popular website.


Lately though I’ve gotten into writing blogs and as a result of having so many different blogs I’ve also managed to find ways to monetize them and earn a decent income off of them. I’m actually earning enough now that I can live off of it.

The trouble is most of my income comes in because I actually manually do the work. That is I write posts or write on blogs for compensation. Is it terrible to complain that I have too many offers?

Every day I have at least one email from someone asking me to try out their product or write about their site. It’s getting crazy! I’ve also had two offers to be a guest speaker at blogging or webmaster related seminars!

I think I might have to step back a bit and take a good look at what I’m doing and where I want it to take me so that I can plan my work schedule better and perhaps find a happy medium while I still continue to earn enough to live off of.

New series of articles on the way

by Tricia

I just wanted to say that I’m very pleased with the response that this site has been getting lately.

I’ve been busy working on it for some time and now I can see that my visitors have been finding a lot of both helpful and useful information here. That’s what I meant this site to be.

Since I have experimented with a number of different types of affiliate marketing companies, and lately pa1d p0st companies I plan on doing some very thorough articles of these services in the near future. I might even write up the pro’s and cons between two or more of these types of companies from a bloggers and perhaps advertisers perspective.

Watch for these articles because I think you’ll find them informative.
