Essential Adsense Seo Tips
By: Victor Awo
How can you get to the top of Google, Yahoo and Microsoft’s Bing? This in many ways is the ‘holy grail’ of most webmasters. By occupying the top positions in the most popular search engines, for the most popular keywords, a constant flux of visitors are passing through your Adsense site.
This is the ultimate position to be in for an Adsense Publisher, after that the potential to make serious money is all in your hands. Success is there for you to gain or squander depending on knowledge and skill.
The best way to get to the top is to apply some essential Adsense Search Engine Optimization (SEO) techniques. Firstly, you need to do some essential keyword research. You need to gather your general keywords that describes the theme of your site, the page specific keywords that describes the content of each page and some long-tail keyphrases to give your site some depth. With these keywords all pre-prepared you are in a position to do some Adsense SEO.
In this article we are going to concentrate mostly on the three most important elements relating to on-page SEO. In the grand scheme of Adsense SEO this is the essential middle part of the process while keyword research forms the foundation. With a good solid foundation in the form of good well researched keywords you are in a position to build a solid Adsense SEO campaign. On-page Adsense SEO involves using everything in your power to optimize your site for the search engines, whereas off-page SEO involves using methods outside your website to boost your rankings (articles writing, forums, blogs etc...).
From a search engine perspective the most important on-page SEO elements are:
An important place to use the general keywords that describes your site is in the URL, most essentially the domain name. No matter what anyone says, Google and especially Yahoo give significant weight to domain names. It is prominent and states unequivocally what your site is about. Also, it clearly indicates that you’re quiet serious about it because you very likely had to pay for it. Domain names matter and it is worth investing in a good one if the ones that best describes your site isn’t available. But... if your Adsense site is niche, if you did some good keyword research, you shouldn’t have a problem ensuring that your Adsense SEO campaign gets off on the right foot.
However, if you can’t get your general keywords in the domain name make sure that the filename contains your most important keywords.
Next important is the page title. To ensure that the search engines, know what your page is about and to make sure it turns up in the relevant search queries, you have to make sure you deploy your keywords wisely in the page title. Search engines use the page title as a quick means of summarizing a page they also use it as a link for the results they generate for each site. A good Adsense SEO title needs to contain the best descriptive keywords, but it also needs to attract the attention of a potential visitor. Remember, page titles don’t have to be short, but ideally according to W3C (World Wide Web Consortium) it shouldn’t be more than 64 characters long (including spaces). So pay close attention to them making sure that the Adsense keywords used in your page title are also be present in the URL, heading and in your meta-tags.
After the page title the most important on-page element is the heading tag. This is one of the most important, yet underused elements on the page. The primary reason for this is because it doesn’t look good when used raw (without CSS styling). But search engines ‘see’ and tags. They recognize the keywords placed in them and they are given significant SEO weighting. Use heading tags to organize the look of the content on your website. You can use headers to create useful keyword rich titles within your pages and use it to describe the content of paragraphs of text. Breaking up the page this way helps with the visual look of your web page, giving your page enough white space and making it easier on the eye of your visitors.
These are the primary Adsense SEO factors to consider when putting together your website. You should also try to distribute you page specific keywords liberally throughout the pages of your site. Meta-tags are not given much relevance at all by the search engines so don’t spend too much time optimizing this aspect of your site.
Adsense SEO is crucial for success. Making sure you adhere to a few essential rules ensures that your website turns up on the most relevant search queries. There is however, a none SEO, but equally important reason to optimize you website with keywords. The better your on-page SEO, the better the quality of ads Google delivers to you. A good Adsense SEO campaign is a win, win situation. It may take time but is a process practiced by the most successful Adsense publishers and is well worth the effort.

Adwords, Adsense, SEO – Common Denominator, Keywords
By: Nirmal Kumar
If you have just put up a website, you probably all ready have heard words like: keywords, Google Adwords, Google Adsense, and SEO. Adwords, Adsense, SEO have one thing in common – Keywords. How important are keywords? Very Important.
Google Adwords
Adwords, be it through Google, Miva, or any pay-per-click search engines, you need keywords. With Adwords, you create a three-line ad – 25 word title, with two 35 word lines of ad copy – then you create your keywords. To get the hits, you have to brainstorm for different keywords that are different but relevant to your target audience. Sound easy? It’s not. It takes time, patience, constant tweaking, and hoping that the product you are selling is not already saturated -- to much competition, makes it a little more difficult for the novice to make a profit.
Google Adsense
Google Adsense is an advertising program created by Google, and which is beginning to be explored by other search engines, such as Yahoo and MSN – that allows you to put targeted ads on your website. If someone clicks on the ad, you earn a small amount of money. These ads are keyword driven and are relevant to your webpage or website.
Sounds simple? Well, not really. There is more to it than just putting an ad on your website and expecting someone to click on it. What’s involved? Let’s see – color, position, style, to name just a few.
SEO
Search engine optimization – this for me has been a time-consuming process – since I am still learning. SEO is keyword driven – the search engines pull the keywords from your web copy – not, to my surprise, from the meta keywords tag. Granted, I still use the meta keywords tag, but maybe in the near future, I will slowly eliminate the tag from my WebPages…
The search engines do, however, pull information from Meta Description, Meta Title, and the content of your WebPages. Thus, content does reign supreme.
Since content reigns supreme, each page should contain useful content and most importantly, you’re most relevant keywords that you want to emphasize. Secondly, it is best to try and base your keywords around a central theme. I have found that when the keywords diverts away from the main theme – that sends a red flag to search engines. So, if you want to look at your keywords and the density of the keywords on your webpage or WebPages – You can get a quick rundown at: http://www.ranks.nl/tools/spider.html . It’s a free tool, and very helpful.
To conclude, keywords is one of the main ingredients that leads people to your website, product, service and/or ad. …AND, keywords based around your quality content will help with your positioning on your website.

SEO for Adsense
If you've been using Google's AdSense on your pages you obviously feel the need to somehow generate even more traffic for your website, which in turn would translate to more AdSense click and a higher income.
But who do you do this? Well, the major way you'll get visitors to see your website (other then using AdWords, which is encouraged as well) is to use some techniques to have search engines send more and more users towards your page, by ranking high in search results for your topics of interest.
Believe it or not this is a technique, better known as search-engine optimization or simply SEO. So here are a bunch of tips that come handy under every amateur or professional optimizer's belt.
The first thing you need to take care of is the actual source code and layout of your page. This has to be kept as simple as possible. The problem comes when AdSense and the search engines themselves begin to have troubles in extracting the most relevant keywords on your site because of a too complex layout.
Secondly, try to have each one of your pages target only one specific topic. This way it is a lot easier for them to get indexed properly and for the AdSense ads to be consistent with the content of the site itself.
Also, try not to include too many hyperlinks in your page as well. This also means you should try not to use too many AdSense ads on your page either.
If there are certain keywords you wish to target, make sure the word you wish to target is present in the title, in the first paragraphs as well as in the name of the file. While you're at it you might want to ensure the word springs up in the page's last paragraphs.
And of course, it's very important for your content to have original and compelling content. How do you do this? Well the easiest way to do it is to find something you're really passionate about. That way, providing you give it a lot of effort you're bound to have a great page quite fast.
If the content you use in your site is in the public domain (which is highly discouraged) make sure that you at least give it an original title, and add an opening and a closing paragraph of your own.
This takes a little while, but if, after waiting, you still can't find your page near the top, you should try rewriting your title and your first and last paragraphs. It doesn't take much, often just changing a few words will give you the right results.
And of, course there's the use of keyword tools that may aid you in finding some good keywords to include on your page that will drive visitors to your site more and more.
So those are about the basic techniques in search engine optimization. You can find a lot of computer tools to aid you in doing this, and of course, Google is a great place to search for this.
In the end, you'll find that SEO is a complex topic, and entire books have been written on the topic as well. You might find that you have a lot of optimization you need to do in order to get more and more visitors to your site and clicking those precious AdSense banners.
You need to have optimized niche website templates for best results. You may find the best adsense templates and blog templates at Adsense Big. They are offering 100 fresh new templates every month.
