The Nigerian internet estate: the myths, facts and the reality II (Google ad sense)
This article is a sequel to the other piece posted on this blog, and this article will be incomplete if I don’t make mention of this very formidable online money making opportunity that has enriched many netpreneurs world wide and Nigeria is not left out in this. The program is owned by google.com one of the largest web portal worth about $174.83 billion, and it is currently the biggest media company in the world. It is bigger than notables like Time Warner, the company which owns Time Magazine, CNN & America Online; it is bigger than Viacom, the owners of MTV and Paramount Pictures. In fact, Google is worth more than all the companies quoted in the Nigerian Stock Market combined! This includes Mobil, OANDO, Nigerian Breweries, Zenith and all the other banks (combined!). A single Google.com share costs more than $450 and it is projected to reach $600 a piece sometime next year - that's more than N50, 000! a piece (compare this to that of say Zenith bank that sells for less than N50!).. Like I always say the number one thing in online business is being truthful to your audience since he/she can’t see you, and since I joined this trend of latest genre of Nigerians who are hitting it big from genuine online money making opportunities
Now do you know that Microsoft network wants to purchase yahoo for a record sum of $44.6 billion dollars (about 535.5 billion Naira), ask me why: the simple reason being that MSN with all its affiliate networks and companies still trail behind google in online sales, and buying yahoo will be a big boost in its battle against market leader google for pre-eminence on the online search market. Now what is ad sense? It is a special pay-per click system developed by google where specific ads related to the content on your site/blog are displayed and each time a visitor hits your site/blog and clicks on any of the ad your get paid. This is not a scam. Remember I told you that Google.com is worth over $100 Billion; well this is one of the ways they make their money. Here they serve as 'agents' between people who want to attract visitors to their websites and people who have advertisement space on their own website. It doesn't matter if what you have is a free website or not. All you need to do is to design a website on a particular niche; it could be golf, health and fitness, dieting, online money making opportunities etc. from my last post I discussed briefly how to design a web page using Microsoft FrontPage, presently I’m taking my time designing my site, developing content and then hosting it. Very soon the site will hit the web. Back to our main discussion, it doesn’t cost a fortune to get an ad sense account from google all you need is go to www.google.com/adsense, and in a couple of minutes google will start displaying ads related to your site/blog content for visitors to click on them and earn you revenue.
At the moment I’m still trying things out and learning from the masters and presently my ad sense revenue is swelling pretty fast and I’m really amazed by this lazy way of earning revenue without promoting a product or nice as is the case with google ad words/ Affiliate marketing. However I want to warn you that as a part of Google’s Terms of Service if by any way you click on the ads or tell some body else to do that for you, google will definitely find out, and when they do you are banned from participating from the program. So all you need to do for your self is to know how to build traffic for your site or blog. My next post I’ll be doing that.
However for more on google ad sense and how to earn revenue from it you can subscribe to this e-book by Liz Tomey titled ‘confessions of an ad sense girl’ for a token fee, presently I use this book and it has greatly enriched my ad sense experience; and by purchasing this google ad sense elixir as I call it, you also stand a chance of getting a free e-book on The Nigerian stock market by a stock exchange guru Ikenna C Nwaiwu titled ‘ The Beginner’s Guide To Investing In The Nigerian Stock Market’.
