AdSense Accounts

December 14th 2006 01:08
It is now possible to sign up for a Google AdSense account and then submit your Client ID through your my.Orble.com control panel. Simply click on the My Adsense ID link.

Our aim is to eventually move everyone over to having their own AdSense account.

You can sign up for a free AdSense account here.

Once you have your own AdSense account and have submitted your Client ID you will be paid your commission directly by Google. It will also enable you to make be paid for publishing posts on any Orble blog, not just your own, and not just domain blogs.

Google also provides daily statistics for your ads, including views, clicks, click through rate etc.

Thanks,
Jon.

Out of interest, does this cut into Orble's profits at all?

yes so does adsense effectively mean that we are paid directly by google, cutting out orble as the middle man?

It makes no difference to Orble's profits or the writer's profits. It's just a different way of doing exactly the same thing.

Laura -- it does mean that you will be paid directly by Google.

This is a terrible idea. I can't use Ad Sense.

Hi

At the risk of sounding naive, I don't know anything about Adsense...should I Google it or could you tell me more?

Thanks,

Tracy

Jon,

once I've signed up for adsense and inserted my adsense id into my orble account... what do I do? Do I have to fill anything else up in my adsense account? Do I have to fill in that tax stuff?

On my adsense account, it also says "my payments are on hold." How do they not be on hold? Heh.


Thank you for your time

I fucking misspelled my surname in the Adsense application. I'm dead useless.

So now, instead of being paid if I earn over $US10 a month, I have to wait until I reach $US100? That's bullshit, I don't like it one bit. I hope these comments were allowed to be good AND bad opinions.

I say this because I don't stand a chance of actually making $100. I don't necessarily do this for the money, but seriously, it removes any real incentive to keep posting if I can't get a pittance every month to make me feel better about it.

I was stoked to get my first Orble payout this week - $28. I'm not likely to see a cent with Adsense.

Yeah, come to think of it, it will probably take me 5 years to get my first pay check.

Adrienne -- why can't you use AdSense?

AE -- you should not have to fill out anything else although it can vary depending on where you are living. If in doubt read the AdSense Help files, they are better than any advice I could give.

QC -- I realise that the $100 threshold is a real pain but we had no choice but to move to individual AdSense accounts. Google only allocates a certain number of tracking channels to each account which we need to keep a tab on what everyone is earning. We had used all of our channels.

Thanks for adding the adsense ID and Blogroll. I've noticed a spike in my adsense earnings already and I don't even post every day.

However, I've noticed that I can only add the blogroll to my dot com blog? Am I doing something wrong or is that how it is set up?

Wishing you a happy and prosperous New Year!

Thanks,
Dee

dswhite -- the Blogroll will only work with Domain blogs for the moment. Otherwise it's too easy for people to abuse the system.

@ Laura - are you adding the "pub-" next to the number?

@ Tracy - Please let me know if you need any help in adsense accounts and it's use.

so how do you sign up if you don't have a domain name registered in your name?

Because i tried to sign up for an adsense account, but was denied because i didn't have a domain name in my name. I have my own domain name, but i do not have an orble domain blog... so what am i supposed to do?
