You may have seen our recent post about the upcoming changes to referrals promoting AdSense. Since we made this announcement, we’ve received a number of responses about the program being dependent on the location of the referring publisher. We’ve carefully considered your feedback, and have decided to modify the original plan.
The changes to referrals promoting AdSense will now depend on where your users are located, regardless of your location as a publisher. You’ll earn $100 for every user you refer to AdSense who is located in North America, Latin America or Japan when they generate $100 in AdSense revenue within 180 days and they remove all payment holds. You’ll no longer be paid for users you refer who are located elsewhere. These changes will go into effect the last week of January.
We’ve been listening to your comments on our new ad management feature, and so we’re excited to tell you about a few updates that stem directly from your requests:
Are you currently displaying a referral unit for AdSense on your website? Then read on, because there are some upcoming changes to the referral program that you should be aware of. But first let me clarify that only referral units promoting AdSense will be affected by this change; referrals to other products and services remain unaffected at this time. This change to referrals promoting AdSense will differ depending on your location, regardless of where your users are located.
- If you’re in North America, Latin America, or Japan, the pricing structure for AdSense referrals is changing.
In a post last month we told you about the location names that appear beneath locally targeted ads. We’ve recently made updates with the introduction of the AdWords Local PlusBox. The Local PlusBox is a feature that displays more geographical information for a local business ad that appears in the top position above Google search results. When users see the Local PlusBox and click on it (see the ‘closed’ screenshot below), the ad expands to include a map, address, driving instructions, and phone number, in addition to the location name that appears beneath the last line of ad.
2007 is drawing to a close, but before you get out the party hats and start practicing the lyrics to Auld Lang Syne, we’d like to take a moment to recap some of the biggest developments in AdSense this year.
Private Label Content (PLR) has been a hot topic in online business over the last couple of years. As more opportunities have emerged for people to make money with niche marketing, so has the demand for affordable content.
PLR is the perfect solution!
If you’re not familiar with how PLR works, it is essentially a way for multiple people to “share” content. Since they are all given access to use or change the content, they pay significantly less.
