I was over checking out Wordpress Adsense System again today and found a really good article with some excellent tips on the war between using wordpress or blogger for publishing content. Gobala Krishnan who is the author of Wordpress Adsense System, wrote a really good article on the topic.

Everyone is always asking is wordpress better than blogger? Gobala agrees with me when I say yes wordpress is by far better than blogger. After using wordpress for my blogs and even my content websites I have a strong love for wordpress.

Here are a few of the main differences in WordPress & Blogger

The Blogger Platform

• Blogger does not allow full customization
• Blogger does not support categories
• Often blogger moves slow when posting
• There are no advanced tools for blogger users
• All content posted by you is owned by Blogger (Google)
• Your blog can be shut down any time Blogger feels like it

The WordPress Self-Hosted Platform

• Wordpress can be completely customized to your liking
• WordPress allows categories for better keyword use which makes it look more like a “site”
• WordPress can be used as a content management system with ease
• WordPress can be used as a niche website
• WordPress self-hosted version users own their content
• WordPress has lots of great tools that can be added into your blog

Now in all fairness I will say it is easier to get started on Blogger, as all you have to do is open an account and start posting. You can also find some blogger themes and some tools but no where near the amount of stuff you can find for WordPress.

If you are thinking about creating a website for personal use or affiliate marketing and want to maximize your income potential adding Adsense is a great choice. I have heard many bloggers say they hate Adsense, but I really think if is because they were limited to how they could use it and did not realize how ti improve their income with Adsense. I have used it for years and love it. I get a direct deposit every single month from Google Adsense and can not complain.

At any rate, if you are looking for an opportunity to make niche websites and run Google Adsense I highly recommend Wordpress Adsense System.

The Adsense System is a must have tool for any website. The advise works and is well written out with easy to follow instructions. The Adsense content website system tells you how to build the site, how to find website content, how to make money from adsense, how to get traffic, and so much more! The tips have worked well for my personal sites that I run on the WordPress platform.

Since, most of you are home based business owners, having additional streams of income is always a great idea.

If webmasters want to monetize their websites, a great way to do it is through Adsense. Point blank Adsense is making many webmasters wealthy. Even the ones who own stores who run google ad’s are seeing great success. If you have a website and are using Google Adsense, but not seeing good results you may be using the ads wrong.

Here are some excellent tips by some of the top earning Google affiliates.

1. Do you have google displaying ad’s in the footer area of your website? If so, remove the Adsense from the bottom pages of your site and put them along the top. To really take advantage of Google Adsense, you will want to put them in place’s where people can see them quickly. Adsense locations are very important for maximum click through rates.

The famous AdSense “heatmap” released by Google in answer to AdSense publishers’ questions about where they should place their ads. Ads in the darker colored areas generally do better than ads in the lighter-colored areas.

By looking at this “heatmap” the tradition place webmasters place the Google Ad’s is not as “hot” of an area compared to the left side. Google actually places the ads on the right side on their own search results.

Since all websites are formatted differently, you may need to play around with your ad placement to find the best areas for your particular website.

2. Concentrate on one format of Adsense ad’s. The one format’s that works well for the most have been the Large Rectangle 336X280, 300×250 inline rectangle and the 160×600 wide skyscraper. This same format has the tendency to result in higher click-through rates.

In my own personal experience with Adsense, the 160×600 has worked very well with my websites.

3. Create custom palettes for your ads. Choose color’s that will go well with the background of your site. If your site has a white background, try to use white as the color of your ad border and background. To have the most success you want the colors to make the Adsense look like it is part of the web pages. So, if you use purple links all over, make sure your Adsense links are purple as well. When the links look like they are a part of your website it will result in more clicks from people visiting.

4. Maintain links to relevant websites. If you think some sites are better off than the others, put your ads there and try to maintaining and managing them. If there is already lots of Adsense put into that certain site, put yours on top of all of them. That way visitor’s will see your ads first upon browsing into that site.

5. Try to automate the insertion of your Adsense code into the webpages using SSI (server side included). This is for advanced webmasters! This tip is a time saver especially for those who are using automatic page generators to generate pages on their website. If you are a blogger adding Adsense to your website you may find that using an ad widget will help place codes automatically in your posts.

If you want an expert’s opinion on Adsense I’d recommend the Joel Comm’s books What Google Never Told You About Making Money with Adsense. The E-Book author earns $15,000 per month from Adsense and has some amazing tips for making more money with Google.
