    How A Change in Perspective Can Help You Make More Holiday Season Sales: Pt. One
    Some sites are perfect for the Christmas season - their products fit easily into the idea of gift-giving. But what if the products and services you offer are for small business owners?Or, as many of my clients ask, how do I survive the holiday season if I sell intangibles?When a couple of people brought this question up to me in early fall, my answer was that I'd probably make enough

    Strategic Advertising for Real Estate Agents
    “99% of advertising doesn’t sell a thing.”Sounds like something a local real estate agent might say after paying for yet another ad that didn’t produce, right?You might be surprised to learn that the quote actually belongs to David Ogilvy, legendary founder of one of the world’s largest and most successful advertising agencies.Yikes – if a man regarded as a giant in the ad indu
    Many people use Google Adsense on their websites to generate extra income. Some people earn enough to pay their web hosting costs – others earn substantially more.

    Basically, you sign up for an Adsense account, cut and paste some code on your website and you’re done. The code displays Google ads and, whenever one of your website visitors clicks on an ad, you get paid. Simple. Good for the surfers, good for Google and good for you.

    As with any online money earning technique, users try to maximise their earnings by a variety of methods – trying different types and positions of ads, different background colours, different link colours etc. Most of these techniques are accepted as fair practice by Google – but some are frowned upon.

    One very common method used to increase the probability that visitors will click on the ads has been the alignment of thumbnail images beside the ads. This has always been a bit of a grey area - and Google never really gave definitive advice on whether or not it was considered to be a legitimate tactic to use. However, Google has now made a clear statement that this is not allowable - you can see the full post at the Google Adsense Blog - but it's summarised below.

    Working From Home The High's And Lows!
    The day to day running of an online/home business can at times be the most rewarding task ever, the feeling of completing a target that you set for yourself is the best feeling in the world. But... and it's a huge one... it is so far from easy that you can feel you have gone full circle before success is even sniffable! Pain of rejection is the single most destructive thing to hold you back ever.

    Shorter Lines at Truck Washes Increase Business
    How long should the line be at a truck wash ideally? Well, that depends on your goals and location and the quality level. Most of the Industry would agree that Shorter Lines at Truck Washes Increase Business. Although there is a catch 22 to the line situation, if there are no trucks there then often folks will drive by. Same in a car wash business. No lines ever means that your wash sucks in the mi

    Public Relations and Window Washing Companies
    Window Washing Companies need to maintain a clear image in the community. It therefore makes sense to carefully consider their public relations strategies. But what kinds of innovative things can a Window Washing Company do that have not been done before? Well, how about joining a Neighborhood Mobile Business Watch and Community Policing Program? Why would they do that you ask? Well consider the wi

    CAN I PLACE SMALL IMAGES NEXT TO MY GOOGLE ADS?
    ”We ask that publishers not line up images and ads in a way that suggests a relationship between the images and the ads. If your visitors believe that the images and the ads are directly associated, or that the advertiser is offering the exact item found in the neighbouring image, they may click the ad expecting to find something that isn't actually being offered. That's not a good experience for users or advertisers.

    Publishers should also be careful to avoid similar implementations that people could find misleading. For instance, if your site contains a directory of Flash games, you should not format the ads to mimic the game descriptions.”

    WHAT IF I PLACE A SPACE OR A LINE BETWEEN MY IMAGES AND MY ADS? WOULD THAT WORK?
    ”No. If the ads and the images appear to be associated, inserting a small space or a line between the images and ads will not make the implementation compliant.”

    DOES THIS MEAN I CAN'T PLACE ADS ON PAGES WITH IMAGES?
    ”You can definitely place Google ads on pages containing images -- just make sure that the ads and images are not arranged in a way that could easily mislead or confuse your visitors. For example, if you run a stock photography site with a catalogue of thumbnail images, don't line the ads up with the thumbnails in a way that could be misleading.”

    So, if you're a Google Adsense publisher and using this technique, you may want to remove the images - otherwise you risk having your Adsense income removed.
