The following topics will explain the major advertising income sources for your web site, how they work and what we can do to turn your web site into a steady source of income.
There are many affiliate and ad placement programs that can generate a steady source of advertising income for your web site. The most popular and arguably the easiest to establish and monitor is Google AdSense.
Google AdSense is a fast and easy way for web site owners to display relevant, unobtrusive Google ads on their web site and earn money. Because the Google ads are related to what your users are looking for on your site, it creates a very effective revenue stream. Earnings are generated anytime someone clicks on an ad within your web site.
AdSense for search allows web site owners to provide web search for their users, directly from any web page. Search results pages use Google's search to provide relevant results, and the search results pages are customizable to fit with your site's theme. In addition, results pages contain Google ads that are targeted to the user's query - providing useful information for the user, and a revenue stream for your web site. Earnings are generated when someone clicks on an ad within the search result pages.
Affiliate marketing is an online advertising channel in which online merchants that sell products or services pay web site owners only for results, such as a visitor making a purchase or filling out a form, rather than paying simply to reach a particular audience.
