How Businesses Make Money from Google
A popular way to make money with Google, is by using Google’s Adsense program . As an Adsense advertiser you get a piece of the Huge revenue Google makes from its Adwords program. The way you make money with Google Adsense is, every time a visitor clicks a Google ad on your site, Google pays you. How much you get paid for each click varies quite a bit and is based on the competitiveness of the keyword (and your site) within the Google Adwords system.
Adsense by Google was launched in 2003. Ever since, AdSense has been an extremely popular way to make money with Google. Although the revenue is not that much per click, it can grow into a lot of money if your site has good traffic volume. Google adsense is neat because it scans your site and only displays ads relevant to the content of your site. You can even define the keywords to use to decide what ads to display on your site. This can boost your earnings by targeting high competition keywords and displaying only those associated ads on your site.
How does Adsense work?
Behind the scenes, an advertiser goes to the Google AdWords system, signs up, and creates one or more advertisements that they want to pay to have appear either on Google’s search result pages or on “content network”. The content network is where your website will be, it is a network of websites that have signed up with Adsense and now display ads for Google on their site(s). An example of this is About.com. As an advertiser, you can choose to advertise on the entire content network, or a selection of hand picked websites. Your site, when set up, will become a part of the content network. you can tell Google Adsense what keywords to use or Google will crawl your site and figure it out. When your visitors click a Google ad, the advertiser pays Google, and Google pays you.
Interestingly, this program does not really cost you anything (you need a website of course) because no money crosses hand for displaying ads, only when an ad is actually clicked, then the advertiser pays Google and Google pays you. Adsense is pretty simple, in concept, all you need is a website and steady traffic and your site will make money from Google.
