Blogger + Adsense Hack: Show ads after each post to earn more from your blogger beta blog!

Update: Blogger allows this officially now. Check this guide for easier instructions.

This trick surprisingly increased my earnings 4 times from last few days! I have modified my blog code to put adsense ads between post title and post body!
Well this kind of ad placement will surely result in higher payout! But I’m demonstrating how to do that for blogger beta only! You can apply similar hack for other blogging platform! Google for help… 😉

#Steps for placing ads in every post!
1. Log in to your blogger beta account!
2. From your dashboard, click on “Layout”
3. Next click “Edit HTML”
4. Now Check “Expand Widget Templates” (by default it is unchecked)
5. Now search for post.body in codes. (Better use your browsers built-in search feature)
6. By default it should appear in your layout code only for once and you should reach the line…

<p><data:post.body></data:post.body></p>

  1. Now if you want to put your adsense codes between post title and post body paste it above the line you found in step 6 or below the line to show ads after posts!
  2. Wait its not over yet! You have to modify adsense codes a little-bit. But don’t worry about the TOS as this modification will not be visible after template gets saved. (In-fact I’m doing this only)
  3. Your Google Adsense Codes will have following lines!

<script> type=’text/javascript’><!–
…..
//–>
</script>

just replace highlighted < with &lt; and > with &gt;
If you have any doubt about this please read note at the end!
10. Its time to hit preview button! 🙂

#Tips: Using Blend template for Adsense!
From day one, I have been using Blend template for Google Adsense. But in above hack you must use that! I feel so because your ads will appear in every post and end-user experience may degrade if your color scheme is annoying!

#Note: How modification to the Adsense code is not against its TOS?
First you can open your blog and cross-check its source code using browsers “view source” option to see Adsense Codes back to what you have got!
Now if you know about HTML then in HTML language, we just used HTML Character Entities.
What gets stored in blogger database is actual code!
So don’t worry be happy & rich 😉

Earning more with AdSense product referrals without viloating TOS

This is for all who are earning from Google Adsense.

As you might have noticed, Adsense product referrals can not be hyperlinked statically as they get loaded by javascript code which are added to site.

Consider this, you write a post about firefox where you can not hyperlink firefox with link to adsense firefox referral directly. But you do have a adsense button to download firefox in your blogs sidebar. Chances are it will not get noticed. Also a phrase like “download firefox” must point to the download link in tutorial but if you give direct link to Mozilla site you will loose the bucks!

Now to solve this dilemma, the trick is to use HTML named anchor. You can hyperlink all keywords which can be monetized using Adsense referral without violating Google Adsense’ terms of service!

ADVERTISEMENT

As an example lets start with Firefox again. Very often we ask people to download firefox for some reason while writing about an extension or some functionality which other browsers can not provide! Anyway the following tutorial similarly applies to other Google products viz Google Pack, Google Adsense & Google Adwords!

It is assumed that every page of your site has some common area and you will be placing Google Ads there only! e.g. Sidebar in blogs.

Procedure:
1. Just add following one-line before firefox codes provided by Google Adsense

<a name=”FIREFOX”></a>

ADVERTISEMENT
  1. Now whenever you want to hyperlink word you can do something like this

<a href=”#FIREFOX”>firefox</a>

Thats it! Now whenever someone click on these kinda links they will get redirected to the part of page where product referral link/button (in this case button to download firefox) is placed!

Note that this redirection will go unnoticed as at the max clicking will scroll up/down a page little. Nonew page will get loaded… 😉

Update: Rupesh posted about javascript code which can save you from manually editing all your posts to hyperlink keywords. Details are here… 🙂

Wanna Earn Some Money without Spamming!

Now-a-days I am getting lots of spam with title saying some stupid way to earn money. Observing intensity of this spam I felt like going into depth to discover real opportunities!

I did not find many but till then would like to share with you the ways through which I am earning money online. Of course these are not for the people for who wants to be millionaire overnight and also not for the people who thinks or wants to earn just clicking few links and sending spam mails.

I wonder how people think they can earn either without efforts or crime!

Currently I am earning through Google Adsense and shareapic! I am also testing few more ways which I will share with you after confirming they are not spams!

1. Google Adsense (For publishers only)

This is a program for publishers. A publisher is a person who is running blog, site, etc. On sign-up you get separate account. Once your account is confirmed you get three ways to earn.

  • Showing Sponsored links
  • Referring people to products.
  • Adding Google Search Capability to your site.

In all three ways you will get javascript code which you have to add on your site.
After adding code things will be displayed when somebody visits your site. You will earn only when people click on sponsored links or download products. You don’t need to be expert of javascript for this. All you need is access to codes of your site, blog, pages, etc.
