Google is testing AdWords and AdSense ads with URLs in All-Caps. Although Google didn’t announce it formally but many People have noticed it and discussion on this are also reported at Webmaster World show.

In recent past Google AdWords changed their display URL policy to require the display URLs to be lowercase.

But now some advertisers are claiming, at least on the AdSense site, the display URLs are sometimes being converted to all caps. One said:

I was quite surprised last night to see an ad on my gmail account where the display URL was in all CAPS.

In fact, many advertisers continue to enter the display URLs for their ads in various cases just in case Google changes their mind. Another advertiser explained, “I still cap words in the URL. You never know, they might change their minds about it.”

Have you seen this change?

Google is now putting more focus on making sure their Ad implementation policies are strictly followed by all Web publishers. specially after noticing that some of the publishers are altering ad formats, behavior and targeting against Google policies.

These types of tampering not only violate the terms and conditions of the AdSense program but also often harm the efficacy of the ads, Google posted on their Blog (Clarifying our ad implementation policies).

Placing AdSense code within an iframe is a common tampering practice, so that it can be displayed on another page, Google forbids this strictly in their terms.

“Improperly iframed ads are a disservice to our advertisers since the ad itself can be obscured. Not only are they not viewable, these implementations can lead to accidental clicks if these hidden ads are placed in a location that users frequently click,” wrote Cecelia Choi from the AdSense Policy team.

A related improper use of AdSense ads is what Google calls “cross-domain iframing abuse,” which allows sites to frame ads belonging to another site without the publisher’s knowledge.

To make its policy clear in this respect, Google has modified the language in its AdSense policy related to this issue to read:

“AdSense code may not be altered, nor may the standard behavior, targeting or delivery of ads be manipulated in any way that is not explicitly permitted by Google. This includes but is not limited to the following: clicking Google ads may not result in a new browser window being launched, nor may Google ads be placed in an iframe.”

If a site requires the use of iframes for valid technical reasons, the publisher can request an authorized exception from Google. Otherwise, Google may cut off its ad serving connection to sites it finds misuing iframes with its ads.

Google AdSense is a popular PPC program for web publishers. It is a fast way to monetize any blog or website. Displayed ads are usually related to the page content. All you have to do to add advertising to the website is to add few lines of code. Google provides many standard ad units so you can always find at least one that fits into the layout of your website.

You are paid whenever somebody clicks on the ad. The price of click can be only one cent but in some cases it can be as much as few dollars. It depends on many factors, mainly on the website niche. Many publishers are attracted by keywords for which advertisers pay high prices. They hope that they will easily get few dollars per click just by creating a blog around these “high paying keywords”. Of course, the process of getting such ads is not so simple. Each advertiser can choose where he will put his expensive ads.

There is also one type of AdSense ads that is usually neglected. AdSense provides also link units. Link unit is a small ad which has 4 or 5 links. Link text is usually some popular search keyword related to the page content. When you click it you get a list of related text and image ads. Only when somebody clicks this ad you get paid. So with link advertising you need two clicks to get paid. Maybe this is one of the reasons for their lower popularity. However, this type of AdSense ads may be exactly what you are looking for. The price of click can be as high as for normal ad unit.

There are many various formats of link unit ads. You can easily find one that fits into your website. You can put up to three units on a page. Of course, if you put only one at proper position you can count on a decent number of clicks. Since links are smaller than normal text or image ads they are easily placed on positions where nothing else would fit. Horizontal thin links can be placed on the bottom of the page or even on the top if your page layout allows such placement. Other rectangular units can be placed on the left or right side close to the main page navigation.

AdSense link units are a simple and effective way to complement any web page with advertising. They are smaller and less obtrusive, but still profitable. If your goal is to increase AdSense earnings you should also consider using this type of Link Unit ads.

There are so many companies that are advertising on internet and earning a huge amount of capital. These companies are also offering different opportunities to developer and internet users to generate a huge amount of income from ads on their sites and services. By far and away the largest and most well-known is Google AdSense, which Google counts as its biggest revenue stream.

Until recently AdSense was allowed on Facebook, meaning any developer wanting to support a Facebook app with adverts could use Google. However, that is no longer the case, and AdSense has been effectively banned from the social network.

In order to be listed as advertising provider on Facebook, companies has to sign up for the Facebook Platform Terms of Advertising Providers and agree to Facebook’s policies. The deadline for getting on to that list was February 28, and as of today AdSense is not on the list.

The reason AdSense doesn’t feature on facebook app is not known, but it is most likely down to Google not agreeing to some of those platform terms. The result being it has just lost access to the largest social network on the web and more than 500 million users who visit the site regularly.

While Facebook-related revenue may only be a small portion of Google’s advertising revenue, the biggest losers in this seem to be Facebook developers. According to the forums, those advertisers now listed offer much lower returns on nowhere near enough content to fill the hole left by AdSense’s possibly forced departure.

A post from Facebook developer forum administrator Nick Gianos suggests that the reason a company isn’t allowed to advertise on Facebook is purely down to them not signing the agreement. In which case this is definitely a case of Google not agreeing with some terms. I doubt Google would forget about a deadline which cut off its entire ad revenue from Facebook.

Now it becomes more easier and user friendly to manage your AdSense account, gives a better view of your account from Dashboard itself.

I  always love Google reporting in Analytics and in AdSense both and  this gets better further.

One more important feature added is the Bulk Edit facilty to edit options in bulk for your multiple Ads. This is something great and really give me a relief from manually editing every ad, when I change my ad campaign strategy. You  can Learn More of Bulk Editing in AdSense here.

For many the truth that Google AdSense gives you so many choices is consent, however, it leaves a few AdSense publishers in a dilemma. Which AdSense ad type is the finest? What color should they use? What format? These are some of the questions that fly through the mind of many publishers new to the staggering range of choices available as AdSense ad types.

When it comes down to selecting which AdSense ad type is the suitable for your site, no article, website or book can give you perfect answer. This is because websites come in so many different styles. The only true way to choose which AdSense ad type is excellent for your site is to in fact experiment and discover it yourself.

This answer may seem to be the most exasperatingly complicated solution but it is the best one. Luckily, it isn’t as difficult as it may appear, as long as you apply some essential rules.

Initially and very prominently always try and find an AdSense ad type that merges into your website. Visitors dislike obvious, old-fashioned banner style ads that stand-out shamefully from the rest of the site. From a design viewpoint it often looks awful and from the outlook of a visitor it’s too understandable. Visitors don’t like ads that look too much like ads. Try, if possible to select, colors, fonts and formats that combine flawlessly into your site.

If you choose to pick text based ads, try and use blue for the text color. It has proved, in many online reviews to be the most ‘clicked’ text color. This is most likely connected to the information that blue has been the default color of links on the web for decades and if nothing else, web surfers are creatures of habit.

Secondly, make sure the ads are placed in areas of the site where they can be seen. If possible they should be placed above the crease, the area first in view before scrolling down the page. There is frequently an enticement to place AdSense ads in areas of a page web page that doesn’t obstruct much with the generally design of a site, for instance areas far removed from the content. But after they’ve viewed your content what incentive is there for visitors to look at your ads? Why should they scroll to the bottom of the page or look at the content at the lower end of your sidebar? Web surfers are an irritated group, once they’ve got what they want, they’re off.

You need to choose an AdSense ad type that blends in with the design of your website that enables it to be placed in prominent positions of your web page. Thirdly, don’t overdo it. There is a limit on how many ads you can place on a single page. But this still leaves room for some publishers to over clutter their web pages with AdSense ads. Two large rectangles (336×280) on a small web page can be overwhelming and nothing puts off a visitor than an over eager AdSense publisher.

Remember, the key to finding the best AdSense ad type is to find the perfect balance between combinations the ads into your website and making them outstanding sufficient to be noticed.

When you select the correct AdSense ad type what you will find is that your Click-Through-Rates (CTRs) will increase significantly. Basically, what you will have achieved is the ideal balance between combination and importance. Your visitors will read the ads as though they are part of the content and if they see what they like they will click on them. And when they click you make, straightforward.

Be aware of the types of AdSense ad layouts that are obtainable to you. Not all of them can be delivered to your site but make sure you identify the types of ads that will work for your website. Text ads work for a popular of sites whereas image and video ads only work for certain kinds of websites, depending on their theme and look.

Google AdSense use to send a PIN code to all publishers when they arrive at an earning over 10$. Google mailed this pin code to them via postal mail in order to confirm the address detail of the publisher. But, it is tricky for the publisher who lives in Asian country such as India, Nepal, Cambodia, Sri Lanka, China, Vietnam, Pakistan etc. to verify their account. They can only request PIN from Google max of three times, if they didn’t get the PIN and confirm the PIN in 6 moths Google will terminate their account.

Publishers have to obtain the PIN and enter it to legalize the PIN confirmation. It takes about 3 to 4 weeks for the mail to reach the publisher. In the case, publishers don’t receive the PIN code in 3 or 4 weeks, they likely demand it again. Again, if they still didn’t obtain the PIN code for the second time, they can request it for the third time but it is the last time for them. What will you do if you don’t get the PIN code for the last time?

There is other method to confirm your account in the case you don’t get the PIN code after you asked for it 3 times.

Initialy you have to log into your AdSense account and click AdSense account page then you will see link as if you have not get your AdSense PIN yet.
