One of the ways ads are targeted to AdSense publisher websites is through placement targeting. Placement targeting allows AdWords advertisers to choose specific ad placements where they'd like their ads to appear. An ad placement can be an entire website or a specific sub-set of ad units within that site, such as only ad units on sports pages or all ad units at the top of the page.
Advertisers find ad placements in several ways, including by listing websites where they'd like to advertise or by searching for placements that match the themes and topics they'd like to target.
If your site is part of the AdSense network, it should automatically be visible to advertisers as an available ad placement when they search for themes or topics related to the content of your site. You can also define your own ad placements using specific sub-sets of ad units on your site.
AdSense Webinars schedule
AdSense webinars are free online seminars conducted and moderated by Google AdSense specialists. This series of webinars is designed to address common concerns that publishers may have and offer guidance on how to monetize your web-based content. Over the next few weeks, we'll be conducting webinars to help you understand, manage and optimize your AdSense performance more effectively. All that you need to participate is a computer with an Internet connection and a pair of headphones or speakers.
Google AdSense Phone Verification
Do I need to verify my phone number?
As part of our effort to protect the accounts of AdSense publishers and provide account-specific support, a valid phone number is required for publishers. To ensure that your information is accurate and up-to-date, we use telephone number verification.
How does phone verification work?
When you're ready to verify your number, visit your My Account tab and click the 'Please verify your phone number' link in the Required Action section. This link will bring you to a page where you'll be able to initiate a call by clicking a button. Our system will automatically call you at the number listed, and when you pick up the phone you'll receive a 5-digit code to enter into a box on the page.
Please note that phone numbers with extensions do not work with our phone verification system.
How long do I have to enter a verification code?
You'll have 6 months from the date that your earnings reached the verification threshold to enter your verification code. If you have not entered your verification code within 4 months, we will replace the paid advertisements on your site with unpaid Public Service Ads. If you still have not entered your verification code within 6 months, your account will be disabled and your unpaid earnings will be refunded to the appropriate advertisers.

Can I filter the ads that are displayed on my site?
Yes, you can prevent ads from appearing on your pages using two tools in your account.
* Competitive Ad Filter
This filter lets you create and manage a list of websites whose ads you'd prefer not to show on your pages. Add a URL to your filter list, and ads from that site will no longer display on your pages. Learn more
* Ad Review Center
This tool allows you to prevent placement-targeted ads from appearing on your pages. You can block ads by advertiser or by ad group. Learn more
Keep in mind, though, that filtering ads may decrease ad competition to appear on your pages, which can decrease your potential earnings.

Quick Start Guide
Once your AdSense application has been approved, you can follow this guide to get started with AdSense right away. The steps below will help you add an AdSense ad unit to your site.
1. Sign into your account and choose the AdSense Setup tab. On the Get Ads page, click the AdSense for Content link to create a standard Google ad unit.
2. Next, select the ad type. Since you'll be creating a standard ad unit, choose the Ad Unit radio button. To enable the widest selection of ads to display on your pages, leave the drop-down set to Text and image ads (default).
3. Now, take a moment to customize your ads so they'll match the look and feel of your site. Select the size you'd like from one of our different ad formats, keeping in mind that larger and wider ad units tend to perform better. (Get tips on picking a format.)
4. Next, select colors for your ads. You choose one of our predefined color palettes or create your own. You can view a sample of how the ads will look based on the colors you've selected. You might also want to review our tips on choosing colors.
5. If you're interested in tracking the performance of your ad unit, you can add a channel. Channels provide more granular reports for the performance of specific ad units. If you haven't created a channel yet, you can skip this step by clicking Continue.
6. Next you'll be prompted to name your AdSense ad unit. This will allow you to change the appearance or settings of your ad easily through your account in the future, so select a name that will allow you to easily identify this AdSense unit later. For more information about this feature, check out our guide to Managing your Ads.
7. Finally, we'll provide you with the ad code for your AdSense ad unit. Click anywhere inside the grey box to select the code, then right-click and select copy. You can now paste the code into the HTML source code of your site. For details and assistance adding the code to your pages, we recommend you review the Code Implementation guide.

How do I add more sites to my account?
Technically, you don't have to add sites to your account. Once your account is approved, whenever you place your AdSense code on a new page, we'll automatically associate that new site with your account.
Just generate the AdSense code as you did for your original site, and add it to whichever page you'd like -- making sure, of course, that it complies with our program policies. You don't need our team to officially review your site beforehand, but please use your best judgment to make sure that your site content and ad implementation are compliant. (Our policy explanations might help.) We regularly review sites displaying our ads, and we'll let you know if we find any issues.
Note that if you're using the Allowed Sites feature, you'll need to add the new URL to your Allowed Sites list, or you won't receive any earnings for that URL.

When will I get paid?
In the AdSense program, you'll be paid when your earnings reach the payment threshold, as long as there are no holds on your account, and you're in compliance with our policies.
However, we don't send you a check or bank transfer at the exact moment the zeroes roll over. First, we have to validate your earnings for accuracy -- a process that takes place the first week of every month on the previous month's earnings. Then, we send payments a couple weeks later, usually during the last week of the month.
So if your earnings reach the payment threshold in February, we'll send you a payment before the end of March.
If your account balance hasn't reached the payment threshold at the end of the month, we'll roll your earnings over to the following month, until the payment threshold is reached. Balances include your total combined earnings for all AdSense products.
If you're receiving earnings through the YouTube Partner Program, learn how these earnings will appear in your AdSense account.
Please note that if a publisher's account is found to be in violation of our Terms and Conditions or policies, we may at any time withhold payment (beginning from when Google initiates its investigation of potential violations), charge back the publisher's account, and/or refund advertisers for clicks received on the publisher's site or AdSense for search results page. In addition, if a publisher is past due on any payment to Google in connection with the Google AdWords program, we reserve the right to withhold payment until all outstanding payments have been made. For a complete description of payment terms, please refer to the AdSense Terms and Conditions.

URL Channels
URL channels are a tool you can use to view more detailed reports about the performance of ads on specific domains. Our Optimizing with Channels guide provides a good, detailed explanation of how to use URL channels effectively.
URL
A Uniform Resource Locator, better known as a URL, is the address or location of a webpage or file on the Internet. Google's URL, for example, is http://www.google.com.
Top queries
AdSense for search publishers can view the top 25 terms, or queries, users searched for using their AdSense for search boxes. Only queries performed more than once will be displayed.
Section targetting
Our section targeting feature allows you to improve your ad targeting by highlighting specific sections of HTML and text content that you'd like our crawler to emphasize or ignore.
Revenue share
Each AdSense publisher receives a percentage of the cost an advertiser pays for user clicks or impressions on their ad. This percentage is referred to as the revenue share. Google does not disclose the revenue share for AdSense.
Report template
A report template is an advanced report with settings that you've named and saved for quick access in the future. Saved report templates will appear on your Overview page and can be accessed with one click. Any report template can be sent to you by email.
Publisher
A participant in the AdSense program, who is running a website with ad code on one or more of their webpages.
Public Service Ads
PSAs are non-profit organization ads that are served to pages when targeted ads are unavailable, or when Google is unable to gather content from the page. Publishers do not receive earnings for clicks made on PSAs.
Preview tool
The Google AdSense preview tool is a tool for Windows users that allows you to preview the ads that may show on any webpage. You can check the destination of ads to add to your filter list, view the ads users in other locations will see, or sample different ad formats and colors.
Placement targeting
Advertisers use this to target their ads to individual placements in the AdSense network on which they would like their ads to run. An ad placement can be an entire website or a specific sub-set of ad units within that site, such as only ad units on sports pages or all ad units at the top of the page.
Payments
The Payments column on your Payment History page will display payments that have been sent to you, either by check or by Electronic Funds Transfer. You can click on the details link associated with any payment for additional details about the payment date and amount, as well as tracking information and exchange rates, if applicable.
Page impression
A page impression is generated every time a user views a page displaying Google ads. We will count one page impression regardless of the number of ads displayed on that page. For example, if you have a page displaying three ad units and it is viewed twice, you will generate two page impressions and six ad unit impressions.
Maximum cost-per-thousand-impressions
The maximum cost-per-thousand-impressions (CPM) an advertiser is willing to pay. The AdWords Discounter automatically reduces this amount so that the actual CPM the advertiser is charged is just one cent more than the minimum necessary to keep his/her ad's position on the page.
Login
Your AdSense login is also referred to as your account email. This is the email address you use to log in to your Google AdSense account.
Link Unit
Link units are a type of ad format that displays a list of links relevant to the content of any page. When a user clicks on a link, they're taken to a page of related advertisements. You can view examples of all available link unit formats on our Ad Formats page.
Link Impression
In link unit reports, the number of times a link unit is viewed, regardless of whether a link is clicked.
Link eCPM
The cost-per-thousand link unit impressions (equal to earnings divided by link unit impressions, then multiplied by 1000). Link eCPM is a similar statistic to standard eCPM, and it essentially reflects the approximate amount you'll earn for every 1000 links that are shown to your users.)
JavaScript
JavaScript is a scripting language commonly used in webpages. The ad code you'll use to add Google ads to your site is composed of JavaScript, and you'll need to have it enabled in your browser in order to view Google ads on a website.
IP Address
Every computer connected to the Internet is assigned a unique number known as an Internet Protocol (IP) address. Since these numbers are usually assigned in country-based blocks, an IP address can often be used to identify the country from which a computer is connecting to the Internet.
Invalid click or impression
Clicks or page impressions generated through prohibited means, and intended to artificially increase click or impression counts on a publisher account. Google's proprietary technology analyzes clicks and impressions to determine whether they fit a pattern of use intended to artificially drive up an advertiser's clicks or a publisher's earnings. Clicks or impressions deemed by us to be invalid should not be included in your earnings. More...
Incentives
Webpages may not include incentives of any kind for users to click on ads. This includes encouraging users to click on the ads or to visit the advertisers' sites as well as drawing any undue attention to the ads. For more details, review our program policies.
Image Ad
Image ads are graphical ads offered in several ad formats. Examples of image ads are available on our Ad Formats page.
IFRAME
An IFRAME is an HTML tag used in web design that allows a webpage to be displayed in a frame within another webpage.

Google Adsense for search
AdSense for search is one feature of Google AdSense that allows you to offer users Google search right from your site. You can view the top queries users performed on your search box, and you'll generate earnings when users click on ads on the search results pages.
Google Adsense
AdSense allows web publishers to deliver Google ads that are relevant to what their readers see on their webpages and increase their site's revenue potential.
Google Account
A Google Account functions as a master Google login, made up of a single email address and password. The Google Accounts Help Center has more information about Google Accounts.
Geo-Targeting
AdWords advertisers can choose to show their ads only to certain locations and languages. The AdWords ads served on an AdSense web site will therefore depend on the advertiser's geo-targeting and a user's settings.
Frames
webpages can be built with frames such that there are multiple sections of independent HTML code. The AdSense ad code should be placed within the frame containing the content you wish to target with the ads.
Emailable report
An emailable report is a saved report template that you can schedule to be emailed to you using the Report Manager page within your account.
Electronic Funds Transfer
Electronic Funds Transfer, or EFT, is a payment method that directly deposits your AdSense earnings into your bank account. It is available to publishers in a number of locations.
Effective CPM
Effective cost-per-thousand impressions (eCPM) is a useful way to compare revenue across different channels and advertising programs. Essentially, effective CPM represents your estimated earnings for every 1000 impressions you receive.
Effective CPM doesn't represent how much you have actually earned -- rather, it's calculated by dividing your earnings by number of page impressions, then multiplying by 1000. For example, if you earned $0.15 from 25 page impressions, then your eCPM would equal ($0.15/25)*1000, or $6.00. If you earned $180 from 45,000 impressions, your effective CPM would equal ($180/45,000)*1000, or $4.00.

Editorial Guidelines
To run AdWords ads on Google, search, and content sites or products in our growing ad network, all AdWords advertisers must follow these guidelines. More...
Distribution preference
The distribution preference selected by an AdWords advertiser indicates whether he/she elects to show his/her ads on the search and/or content sites or products in the Google network. Not all Google ads will appear on AdSense webpages.
Display ads
Includes all types of image-based ads, such as banners, rich media, and video ads. In order for display ads to appear on your pages, you must be opted in to show image ads on your ad space.
Destination URL
This is the URL to which ads link. This is the page users see when they click through to an advertiser's site from an ad. You will need to know this URL if you would like to add it to your URL filter list and block an advertiser's ads from appearing on your site. More...
Cybersquatting
Sites such as these are not allowed to run the AdSense ad code. Cybersquatting is using a domain name with bad-faith intent to profit from the goodwill of a trademark belonging to someone else. Typosquatting is a form of cybersquatting, based on the probability that a certain number of Internet users will mistype the name of a URL when surfing.
Custom channel
Custom channels are a tool you can use to view more detailed reports about the performance of specific pages and ad units. Our Optimizing with Channels guide provides a good, detailed explanation of how to use custom channels effectively.
Crawler
A crawler, also known as a spider or a bot, is the software Google uses to process and index the content of webpages. The AdSense crawler visits your site to determine its content in order to provide relevant ads.
Cost-per-thousand-impressions (CPM)
The CPM is the amount an advertiser pays for every 1000 times a user views his/her ad and an impression is recorded.
Cost-per-click (CPC)
The CPC is the amount an advertiser pays each time a user clicks on his/her ad. Google AdWords has a CPC pricing system.
Cookies
For internet purposes, cookies are small text files downloaded to a user's computer that can be used to store user information and preferences. Many sites use cookies to customize and improve functionality on repeat visits to a site.
Contextual Advertising (Content-Targeted AdWords; Content AdWords)
Google leverages our award-winning search technology to deliver relevant ads to content pages of sites and products in our network (including AdSense web sites). Our technology draws upon our understanding of the billions of pages in our search index and our ability to crawl webpages to figure out which keywords would lead a user to the page. Then, we match ads to the page based on those keywords.
Competitive Ad Filter list
A list that AdSense publishers can create and store in their accounts in order to block ads from certain URLs from running on their sites. After a publisher adds a URL to the list, ads for that website list will not run on his/her site. More...
Competing ads
Competing ads are any content-targeted ads as well as text-based ads that mimic Google texts ads or appear to be associated with Google text ads on your site. As noted in the AdSense program policies, competing ads aren't permitted to be displayed on the same page or site as Google ads. However, we do allow affliate or limited-text links.
Color palette
AdSense offers publishers the ability to customize the colors of ads that appear on their sites. Color palettes allow you to make sure that the ad text, background, and border colors complement your website. For added variety and freshness, you can even choose to rotate through up to 4 different color palettes at a time.
Client-side software
Any software application that is used to access or make better use of the internet and is installed on the user's machine, such as browsers, email clients, and internet messaging programs. This often includes hidden downloads or interferes with other applications.
Click
In link unit reports, the number of clicks received by ads on a page resulting from a link click. This is different from link clicks, the number of times a link in a link unit is clicked by a user, leading to them viewing the page of ads.
Channel
A publisher-specified group of pages used for reporting purposes. Publishers can create channels to track specific metrics across pages, sites, and domains.
Browser cache
Your browser cache is a temporary record of your internet activity, including images, sounds, and downloads, that is stored within a file on your computer for a short while. Clearing your cache can make it easier or faster to access some AdSense functions.
Blogger
Blogger is a web-based tool that allows users to quickly and easily create and publish content on a weblog or "blog."
Balance at end of month
Your Payment History page will show the balance in your AdSense account at the end of every month. This amount reflects verified earnings at the close of that month. If your account balance at the end of the month is greater than US$100 and there are no payment holds on your account, you should be scheduled for a payment the following month.
Alternate ads
Alternate Ads allow you to monetize your ad space in the event that Google is unable to serve targeted ads to your page. By specifying an image or ad server of your choice, you can make sure that your advertising space is always being used effectively, either by targeted AdSense ads, or by your own choice of content. Alternate Ads, if specified, will be shown when there are no targeted ads available for your page. The ad space will not be branded as 'Ads by Google.' More...
Adware
Software that collects a user's information without their knowledge through the user's Internet connection. This information is often used for the purposes of displaying advertisements through pop-ups or other means. Sites associated with Adware are not allowed to run the AdSense ad code.
AdSense unit
An AdSense unit is a saved ad unit with a specific set of ad settings that you've customized within your account. When you create an AdSense unit and paste the code for that unit to your pages, you can update the AdSense unit settings within your account to see changes on all pages displaying that AdSense unit code.
Adjustments
Your earnings may include debits or credits for various reasons, all of which are listed on your Payment History page. Possible adjustments include:
* AdSense for search fees: as stated in the Google AdSense Terms and Conditions, your AdSense for search earnings may be offset by fees. This applies to a small number of publishers only - for more information, browse AdSense Support.
* Check fees: costs associated with special delivery of checks, or stop payment requests
* Invalid clicks: publishers are not remunerated for clicks that are discovered to be invalid. If clicks currently showing in your reports are deemed to be invalid, the earnings will be adjusted and advertisers will be reimbursed.
* Other: this covers debits or credits not included in other categories, such as those associated with earnings transfers or costs related to secured express delivery. This category may also include occasional deductions of earnings accrued from advertisers who have defaulted on payment, as noted in the Payment section of our Terms and Conditions.

Address, Valid Mailing
A valid mailing address is a full and complete physical address. Participation in AdSense requires a valid mailing address in order to receive your Personal Identification Number (PIN).
Ad unit impression
An ad unit impression is generated every time a user views an ad unit on your page. For example, if you have a page displaying three ad units and it is viewed twice, you will generate six ad unit impressions and two page impressions.
Ad rank/Positioning
An ad's position on a webpage is determined by a combination of its maximum cost-per-click (price) and clickthrough rate (performance).
Ad impression
An ad impression is reported whenever an individual ad is displayed on your website. Different ad formats will display varying numbers of ads; for example, each time a vertical banner appears on your site, you'll see two ad impressions in your reports. In addition, keep in mind that the number of ads in any ad unit may vary depending on whether the ad unit is displaying standard text ads, expanded text ads, or image ads.
Ad format
The way the ads are displayed on a publisher's site. You can choose the format that best fits your site. For example, the banner ad layout will display up to 2 ads horizontally across the page and the skyscraper will display up to 4 ads vertically. All formats can be viewed on our Ad Formats page.
Ad code
The HTML that is placed on any page of an approved site by the publisher who owns the site, allowing ads to be shown on that page in a specific ad layout format.
Actual cost-per-thousand-impressions
This is the amount an advertiser actually pays for each impression of his/her ad. The AdWords Discounter automatically gives advertisers the lowest possible price in order to maintain their ad's position. The actual CPM will be equal to or less than the maximum CPM specified.
Account type
Generally, if you are a business with 20 or more employees, you should apply as a Business account. Individual publishers, or businesses with less than 20 employees, should sign up as an Individual account. There's no difference in the services or payment structure between Individual and Business accounts. Business account payments will be made payable to the Company Name, while Individual accounts are paid out to the Payee Name of the account holder.
Account email
The email address that you use to sign in to your AdSense account. This is the address to which we'll send all AdSense-related communications to you.
Account creation
An AdSense account will be created for you if your application to the program is accepted. You'll then be able to sign in and activate your account.
Account activation
After submitting an AdSense application and verifying your email address, the AdSense team will evaluate your application and send you an email within 1-2 days. If accepted into the program, you'll be able to sign in to your new account and paste the AdSense ad code into your webpages to begin serving ads. This activates your AdSense account.
If I am a Google AdWords advertiser, can I sign up?
Yes. We're excited to help you find yet another way for you to increase your revenue and encourage you to submit an application.
Can I sign up if I am already a part of an ad network?
Yes. However, we do have some guidelines as to how non-Google ads may be displayed along with Google ads. We do allow affiliate or limited-text links.
If your ad network already displays Google ads on your pages, you can still join AdSense and run ads on your site through our program. We allow publishers to display up to three standard Google ad units on any webpage.
Keep in mind that it's your responsibility to work out any contractual issues that may arise with your ad network as a result of serving Google ads directly.

Does participation in AdSense affect my site's position in the Google search results?
Participating in Google AdSense does not affect your site's rank in Google search results and will not affect the search results we deliver. Google believes strongly in freedom of expression and therefore offers broad access to content across the web. Our search results are unbiased by our relationships with paying advertisers and publishers. We will continue to show search results according to our PageRank technology.
Adding the AdSense code to your site will not queue your pages for crawling by our main index bots. While our bot (starting with 'Mediapartners-Google') does crawl content pages for the purpose of targeting ads, participation in AdSense does not increase the number of pages from a site in our main index.

How much does AdSense cost?
Participation in AdSense is free. Even better, Google will pay you for clicks or impressions on the Google ads you'll display on your site. For more details on the revenue potential you can realize through AdSense, read our entry on How much will I earn from this program? .

Does Google guarantee revenues?
Since the revenue that you may earn through Google AdSense depends on the content of each of your webpages or the search terms entered by your users, as well as the availability of related Google ads, Google does not guarantee that you will earn any revenue amount.
What is the AdSense revenue share?
Although we do not disclose the revenue share for Google AdSense, our goal is to enable publishers to make as much as or more than they could with other advertising networks.
We provide detailed online reports that enable you to track your earnings. Once you start running ads on your site, you can view your earnings at any time by visiting your Reports pages, where we'll show you the page impressions, ad clicks, clickthrough rate (CTR), your effective CPM, and your total earnings. This information can help you get an idea of how well the program is performing for you and how much you can expect to earn over time.

What's the difference between AdWords and AdSense?
The Google AdWords program enables you to create advertisements which will appear on relevant Google search results pages and our network of partner sites. To learn more about AdWords and begin advertising immediately, please visit www.adwords.google.com.
The Google AdSense program differs in that it delivers Google AdWords ads to individuals' websites. Google then pays web publishers for the ads displayed on their site based on user clicks on ads or on ad impressions, depending on the type of ad.

How quickly will Google ads start appearing on my site?
After you've been accepted into the program and have implemented the HTML ad code on your site, ads will start running within minutes. If your site is not yet in our index, it may take up to 48 hours or more before we are able to crawl your site. Until your site has been crawled, we may display public service ads, for which you will not receive earnings.
Your ad relevancy should increase over time. However, keep in mind that if you make changes to a page, it may be 1 or 2 weeks before our crawler captures the changes and updates our index to provide more relevant ads.
Adding the AdSense for search code to your pages will instantly generate an AdSense for search box. As search results are displayed on Google-hosted pages, relevant ads will appear immediately, if ads are available for the particular query.

How does Google target ads to my website?
Google automatically delivers ads that are targeted to your content or audience. We do this in two ways:
* Contextual targeting
Our technology uses such factors as keyword analysis, word frequency, font size, and the overall link structure of the web, in order to determine what a webpage is about and precisely match Google ads to each page.
* Placement targeting
With placement targeting, advertisers choose specific ad placements, or subsections of publisher websites, on which to run their ads. Ads that are placement-targeted may not be precisely related to the content of a page, but are hand-picked by advertisers who've determined a match between what your users are interested in and what they have to offer.
Our technology can also determine the primary language of a page. If your content is in a language supported by our program, AdSense will target ads in the appropriate language to your content. In addition, Google ads are geotargeted to your visitor's location.

Google AdSense is a fast and easy way for website publishers of all sizes to display relevant, unobtrusive Google ads on their website's content pages and earn money.

How do I earn money with AdSense?
The main way of earning revenue with AdSense is by displaying Google ads on your site.
With AdSense for content, these ads you display on your site can be either cost-per-click (CPC) or cost-per-thousand-impression (CPM) ads. For CPC ads, you'll generate earnings when your users click on the ads. For CPM ads, you'll generate earnings every time the ad appears to a user viewing your site.
You can also generate earnings while enabling your users to search your site and the web.

How do I earn with AdSense for search?
AdSense for search lets you offer your users Google web search directly from your pages. By placing an AdSense for search box on your site, you'll generate earnings from ad clicks made by users on the search results pages.
You won't, however, receive revenue from user searches through your AdSense for search box. When users perform searches on your site, but choose not to click on the ads on the search results pages, you will not receive any earnings.

Can I filter the ads that are displayed on my site?
Yes, you can prevent ads from appearing on your pages using two tools in your account.
* Competitive Ad Filter
This filter lets you create and manage a list of websites whose ads you'd prefer not to show on your pages. Add a URL to your filter list, and ads from that site will no longer display on your pages.
* Ad Review Center
This tool allows you to prevent placement-targeted ads from appearing on your pages. You can block ads by advertiser or by ad group.
Keep in mind, though, that filtering ads may decrease ad competition to appear on your pages, which can decrease your potential earnings.

The Google ads you are able to display on your content pages can be either cost-per-click (CPC) or cost-per-1000-impressions (CPM) ads, while AdSense for search results pages show exclusively CPC ads.

Although we don't disclose the exact revenue share, our goal is to enable publishers to make as much or more than they could with other advertising networks.
