How to Integrate Adsense Advertising on blogger.com

Posted by Michael

Blogging seems to become more popular day by day, as people discover it to be fun writing about their life or interests, and being able to share the information with others from all over the world by posting it to a blog.

What is not obvious to many, is the potential to earn some money at the same time. A real easy way to do so is to integrate advertises delivered by search engines as Google(TM) or Yahoo(TM).

Google’s advertising program is named AdSense and is a contextual system, that makes you able to position ads on your website or blog which is relevant to the content of your own content.

This short article is on how to integrate Google’s advertising to a blog hosted by Blogger.

Assuming you have already signed up for an AdSense account integrating AdSense to your blog hosted by blogger.com is really simple.

At the blog you want the advertising to show on.

Click on “layout”.
Click on “Page Elements” (if not already there).

Now you should see a page with the template of your blog. You are able to integrate AdSense to your sidebar, your blog post area, and to the footer.

To ad AdSense to your sidebar click on “Ad a Gadget” and a new window will pop up. From the new window, find and choose AdSense on the list and click the image.

An AdSense block is now present in your sidebar. You can move it to a position of your choice by click and hold right mouse button. Do make some tests to make the adverting block show at a nice position.

Follow the same procedure if you like AdSense to appear in your footer.

The blog post area is a little more complicated, but the build in guide is really self explanationary. Just be aware that there is a limit to the appearances of the same type of a AdSense advertise.

Make sure that you read and understand the terms of service for use of AdSense, to be sure that you do comply to the rules.

Good luck earning from your blog.

Having rss problems

Posted by Michael

I have still a few problems with my new layout.
One of my most used plug-ins doesn’t behave well, but cut off the rss feed.

That wont do, so I look forward to a long day finding errors in programming.

Work In Progress

Posted by Michael

working

Only minor details are left before the site is fully operationally.

What is left is a rss subscription and perhaps to add some advertising banner at the top of the sidebar.

Also I have to figure out how to integrate a static frontpage, as the seems to be some difficulties to do this properly with the Primus theme.

I plan to make a fly-in sign up form to my newsletter, but that a later assignment.

Age Activated Attention Deficit Disorder

Posted by Michael

This is how it develops:

I decide to water my garden.

As I turn on the hose in the driveway, I look over at my car and decide my car needs washing.

As I start toward the garage, I notice that there is mail on the porch table that I brought up from the mailbox earlier.

I decide to go through the mail before I wash the car.

I lay my car keys down on the table, put the junk mail in the garbage can under the table, and notice that the can is full. So, I decide to put the bills back on the table and take out the garbage first.

But then I think, since I’m going to be near the mailbox, when I take out the garbage anyway, I may as well pay the bills first. I take my checkbook off the table, and see that there is only 1 check left. My extra checks are in my desk in the study, so I go inside the house to my desk where I find the can of Coke that I had been drinking.

I’m going to look for my checks, but first I need to push the Coke aside so that I don’t accidentally knock it over. I see that the Coke is getting warm, and I decide I should put it in the refrigerator to keep it cold. As I head toward the kitchen with the Coke, a vase of flowers on the counter catches my eye–they need to be watered.

I set the Coke down on the counter, and I discover my reading glasses that I’ve been searching for all morning. I decide I better put them back on my desk, but first I’m going to water the flowers.

I set the glasses back down on the counter, fill a container with water and suddenly I spot the TV remote Someone left it on the kitchen table. I realize that tonight when we go to watch TV, I will be looking for the remote, but I won’t remember that it’s on the kitchen table, so I decide to put it back in the den where it belongs, but first I’ll water the flowers. I pour some water in the flowers, but quite a bit of it spills on the floor. So, I set the remote back down on the table, get some towels and wipe up the spill. Then, I head down the hall trying to remember what I was planning to do. At the end of the day:

—-the car isn’t washed,
—-the bills aren’t paid,
—-there is a warm can of Coke sitting on the counter,
—-the flowers don’t have enough water,
—-there is still only 1 check in my check book,
—-I can’t find the remote,
—-I can’t find my glasses,
—-and I don’t remember what I did with the car keys.

Then, when I try to figure out why nothing got done today, I’m really baffled because I know I was busy all day long, and I’m really tired.

I realize this is a serious problem, and I’ll try to get some help for it, but first I’ll check my e-mail.

Who’s Knocking?

Posted by Michael

Three sisters, ages 92, 94, and 96, live together. One night the 96-year-0ld draws a bath. She puts one foot in and pauses. “Was I getting in the tub or out?” she yells.

The 94-year-old hollers back, “I don’t know, I’ll come up to see.” She starts up the stairs and stops. She shouts, “Was I going up or going down?”

The 92-year-old is sitting at the kitchen table having tea, listening to her sisters. She shakes her head and says, “I sure hope I never get that forgetful”, and knocks on wood for good measure.

Then she yells, “I’ll come up and help both of you as soon as I see who’s at the door.”
