Since I started blogging, I have not opted to add Google Search for my blogs to increase my earnings. I thought it was not a good alternative to earn more. Instead, I only added blog search forms intended only for inside site searches.
Last June 1, I checked my Adsense earnings and was glad to see the first Optimization Tip message from Google itself. It said:
Dear Publisher,
Here is your optimization report for the month of June. After an automatic review of your sites, we think you might be able to improve your monetization using the following tips:
Adsense for Search adds both functionality and revenue to your site.
You are not currently using Adsense for Search on your sites.
We hope these tips are helpful, and encourage you to experiment using different layouts and formats–no two sites monetize the same way!
Sincerely,
Google Adsense

Can I use the Google Adsense Program if I Do Not Have a Personal Website? 
You don’t have to have your own website to use Google Adsense. Google doesn’t usually approve personal pages but that is not written in stone. Consult Google Adsense support pages for more information on what kinds of pages are acceptable. If selling a product or service doesn’t appeal to you, you might consider blogging.
Blogging initially meant web log but has gradually come into its own. There are as many different kinds of blogs as there are blogs themselves. A blog can be like a cyberjournal in that you make daily “journal” entries or it can be more like a newsletter set up to inform or communicate with other people. There are several blogging sites in cyberspace that will allow you to create your own blog pages and have targeted Google Adsense ads running on them.
A few of the most popular :
- Writingup.com
- Blogger.com
- Bloggerparty.com

Kontera, the leading provider of In-Text contextual advertising and information services for online advertisers, publishers, and users, is giving $25 bonus for publishers for every referred publisher.
Kontera has been a good online income generator for my blogs. I signed up as a publisher last December 2007 and have accumulated $59 earnings as of today. I started with only $0.2 average earning per day; not a good income provider you say. I sticked with it, however, because I see it as a potential income generator for my blogs. I signed up my three other blogs (my personal blog, my health blog and my medical and nursing student’s guide blog). My income substantially increased since then, reaching up to $2/day (not on a daily basis). My income now ranges from $0.5 to $2.00 per day. It’s not that much compared to my other income generator like Adsense but it augments to my daily income.

Two weeks ago, Google made modifications on Adsense Terms and Condition requiring publishers to create a privacy policy for each of their websites using Adsense.
We’ve also added some specific requirements that make it necessary for publishers to post and abide by a transparent privacy policy that users see. According to this policy, publishers must notify their users of the use of cookies and/or web beacons to collect data in the ad serving process. This change relates to advertisers’ use of innovative products and features like Gadget Ads and other offerings in the future.
Remember it’s a requirement as stated, which means that you have to firmly adhere to it.
So why do we need to create a privacy policy?
It isn’t only because Google says so; as the saying goes “it’s better be safe than be sorry”. It also adds assurance and information to your visitors on how do you use their information. A great information about privacy policy can be found at Pinoy Money Talk.

Many bloggers are sharing their online revenues and I think it’s about time I post one, too. I’ve been online for over 4 years and thanks to the money making opportunities online, I am earning for my own now.
I’ve joined several money making opportunities, but only a few are giving me earnings.
Google Adsense. Earnings from Google Adsense comprises the large percentage of my online revenues. I am earning an average of $7 USD per day better than what I used to with an average of $3 per day. My $202 earnings for the month of January was the highest so far. It’s not big compared to other bloggers, but it’s helping me a lot.
Project Wonderful. I would like to thank all my ad box bidders. It’s great to see that my funds are increasing as well as the bids on your ad boxes. I think the placement for my PW ads makes it attractive to bidder. Currently, I am earning $0.75/day (but it fluctuates depending on the bids). I run several ad boxes to this blog to generate more income.

The Google punishment in the form of Google PR drops, due to paid links created a buzz in the blogosphere. Many had been affected, and that includes me. And I want to get my PR back. Probloggers advised to add a rel=nofollow on all paid links but it maybe too cumbersome, especially if you have posted quite a number of paid reviews.
I found a WordPress plugin that will help me to easily put nofollow in all the paid links in this blog without manually adding rel=nofollow to the links. No Old Spam Links plugin will automatically do it for me.
What does the plugin do?
- It add “nofollow” to all links on any domain on a blacklist. The “nofollow” is applied in posts and comments.
- Specify one white list “all links dofollow” category which overrides the blacklist.
- Specify an “all no follow” category that adds no follow to all links after a specified number of days. It will be easier for you to add no=follow to all paid links especially if it’s under one category.
