Who else who least pulls from their personal blogs (to which they have dedicated their good doses of free time) to try to monetize them in the best way. Adsense is an easy and fast resource to generate those passive income that largely compensate for the effort and dedication that a blog or website requires.
Once inside the monetization with Adsense, and surpassed that first threshold to collect from Google your little payment for the advertising services provided, you see that with good content you can increase income exponentially.
you go from the 70 euros minimum to collect from Adsense (that is, when you generate this amount per month) to a little more and another little more. To the point that climbing hundreds of euros a month does not seem like such a difficult mission...
In order to fully respond to this healthy ambition of make your blog work with adsense ads, you listen to tutorials from today's internet gurus. And it goes and you find an opinion and its opposite as to whether to pull automatic or fixed-size adsense ads; on whether to put them in the header or only as side banners or exclusively between the content…
For my part, it is not enough to give complete answers from my experience of a few years. I am going to tell you what I think are the best steps to achieve, with a blog that already has a considerable number of entries, those amounts of hundreds of euros that can be between €100 and €2.000 for a medium-sized blog. . Let's go there…
How to put adsense ads on a blog?
We start from the basis that you have already signed up for Google Adsense. In some days you receive a code from Google to proceed with the collection of your earnings. From the first moment, communicate your exact data to Google, no half names or incorrect addresses, no fuss with your account data and ID, for example. If you want to be a reliable partner for the Internet giant, you have to give it all your information presented as God intended. More than anything because soon you will have to declare to the Treasury the result of income less expenses and it is better that all your information is recorded correctly.
The interesting thing, paperwork aside, comes when you start to consider inserting advertising. What works best for me is inserting ads well. As soon as I get down to reducing the ads to 2 or 3 per page, the income drops considerably. Which raises two points:
- On the one hand, it is interesting to make your blog a rocket so that the ads load without slowing down your website. For this, a good theme is essential. Maybe GeneratePress or DiVi, plus probably activate the amp version of your domain.
- It seems evident that the more selective location does not help to increase profits in this important balance between RPM (Revenue Per Thousand Impressions) and CTR (Click-Through Rate). Because in this diabolical balance I have proven that the best thing is to take the "middle" path and spread the ads well on the sandwich so that you don't just have the taste of bread...
As for the how itself, that is, the procedure to spread with good ads, the ideal is to use a plugin like AdInserter so that you can establish an option of ads by paragraphs. Only then will you sprinkle your blog with ads and you will be able to have clicks or impressions, depending on the advertiser. Because you can never control the advertiser bids for one option or another.
Where to put adsense ads on a blog?
Of course, as I said before, the display ads from adsense (these are currently the best because they integrate seamlessly with content or other placements) must go from paragraph to paragraph, each one if they are thick paragraphs or every two if they are lighter paragraphs (All this can be adjusted from your AdInserter plugin)
As for other locations you can not forget the header of your blog. Because here the price increase of the RPM is noticeable, that is, the impressions that every advertiser wants to be seen in the first place. Only the ideal size for your headboard has to be fixed in these cases. The automatic Adsense display ads they are placed too large that they invade more than suggest the click or the subsequent reading of the article where you have many other advertisers willing to pay the most unexpected price per click...
Little by little I will be putting more info in this post, it was just a first approach for other bloggers like me. I will add screenshots of my configurations or other help that you may require through comments in this same post.
See you!!!
