How to earn with Google AdSense program

Friday, April 13th, 2007

As a website owner you would definitely think of getting some additional revenue from it. Your site is doing well for your products, now you want to have some extra earning from it. How to achieve this ?
Google AdSence can be the answer for your question.

An advertiser sign up with Google for AdWords system and creates one or more advertisements that they want to pay to have appear either on Google’s search result pages or on “content pages”. Those content pages are Web sites run by individuals and organizations that include AdSense.
Here advertisers don’t have to pay for their adverts show up on either Google or separate content sites, but instead pay when the ads are clicked by customers, what we call “pay per click” or PPC. A percentage of the amount that the company pays Google for displaying the ad is then shared with the AdSense-enabled web site owner.
Suppose an advertiser is wiling to pays $1.00 for a visitor to their through AdWords, then Google will pay you certain amount (certain percentage : Google haven’t specified it yet ).

Signing up Google AdSense can be considered as an fast an easy way to earn money by displaying relevant Google ads on your site.
All displayed ads are related to what your visitors are looking for on your site — or matched to the characteristics and interests of the visitors your content attracts — you’ll finally have a way to both monetize and enhance your content pages and will earn if they click on them. For getting a good income your site must have a huge traffic and your visitors should clicks on these adverts.
You have choice for locating these adverts within your page by placing special AdSense code into your page, you can also specify color and sizes also for ads.
It is the simple way for earning without negotiating with your advertisers, no more bills for anyone and no headache for payments.

Not every site is approved for AdSense program. Google has their own terms and condition.

Migrating to new host

Thursday, April 12th, 2007

For some reasons, you decided to move your site at new host.

Before moving to new host , plan your migration properly otherwise you may end up in a mess.
When you migrate to new host you get new DNS, new IP and new content ( if you manage for it )

Now you may think that you have migrated so why to keep any data at old server so you may put blank pages over there, keeping the old server still live.
This is most worst mistake which is usually done by webmasters which causes their new migrated site to get banned even though there is nothing wrong in it.

The reason for this is :
Since old server is still live, some Googlebots were using the old DNS/old IP and went to old serever and they received a blank page there, other Googlebots were going to new server they were using new DNS, new IP, new Contents. Due to this Google was getting two different pages at same time hence it consider it as an ” Cloaking ” and you are banned for such mistake.

How to avoid this :
*) Bring a copy of your site up at the new IP address.

*) Update your nameserver to point to the new IP address.

*) Once you see search engine spiders fetch pages from the new IP address, then be sure to take down the copy of your site at the old IP address.

*) Do not do all of the changes at the same time.

*) Make sure there are never two servers responding to requests for your domain dishing out different content.

Wednesday, April 11th, 2007

MX Record is an entry in a domain name database that identifies the mail server that is responsible for handling e-mail for that domain name.You can have website on one server and MX record on some another server and in that case you will have to ulter your MX entry in DNS zone for that perticular domain.

You can have multiple MX records for a same domain and it will check for MX record set with priority.
lowest number will receive mail first that is lower number will have highest priority.

1)You will have to login as a root in WHM

2)Go to the option called DNS Functions >> Edit DNS Zone

3)Select the domain from list and edit that domain
You will see the entries like
XYZ.com. 14400 MX 0 XYZ.com.
mail 14400 CNAME XYZ.com.

4)Suppose you want to change MX to point to the ip 176.199.1.90 then you will have to do the changes in MX record as
XYZ.com. 14400 MX 0 mail.XYZ.com.
mail.XYZ.com. 14400 A 176.199.1.90

5)Save the chnages and remove the entry for XYZ.com from /etc/localdomains.

6)Edit the /etc/remotedomains file - this tells Exim to not handle mail for this domain.
vi /etc/remotedomains
Add the domain name to this file.
Save the changes.

7)You can check the changes done in MX record for the domain at — http://www.dnsstuff.com/
