Product Description

Get your Web site to "show you the money" by using Google to draw more eyes--and wallets--to your content. In this friendly, four-color guide from veteran author and Web developer Eric Giguere, you'll learn all about Google's AdSense program and how you can use it to make your Web site or blog more profitable. Written in an easy-to-read, non-technical style, this book follows three average people--Claude, Stef, and Anita--as they learn to create money-making blogs and Web sites. Through their experiences, you'll learn: basic Web terminology; the Google Adsense nuts and bolts; how to host, build, and publish targeted ads and Google search boxes to your Web site; filter out inappropriate ads; track page performance; drive traffic to your site; and more. A four-part companion Web site features a blog, includes reader resources, and details the techniques discussed in the book.

Online marketers agree that AdSense is one of the best tools you can use to draw dollars to your site. Let Giguere show you how to make the most of Google and have fun doing it!

3.0 out of 5 stars Some good information in an ill-focused book..., July 10, 2005
By Thomas Duff "Duffbert" (Portland, OR United States) - See all my reviews
(TOP 50 REVIEWER)    (REAL NAME)      
Google's AdSense program has allowed anyone to make money from their website. Eric Giguere attempts to explain how this is done in the book Make Easy Money with Google : Using the AdSense Advertising Program.

Content: Making Money with Google; Understanding AdSense; Finding Something to Say; Getting Ready to Say It; Designing Your Site; Building Your Site; Becoming an AdSense Publisher; Publishing Ads on Your Site; Making Money from Your Site; Expanding Your Horizons; Index

This is one of those books that I have a hard time figuring out how to rate. On the positive side, Giguere does a good job showing what the AdSense program is, how it works, and how to get set up with it. There is also quite a bit of material on how advertising works, as well as how companies can "bid" on keywords to make sure their ads show up more frequently when certain content is displayed. The whole book is done as a conversation between the author and a couple of people who are asking him how to make money on the web. If you have a website and want to learn about the AdSense program, this part of the book will appeal to you.

The problem I have with the book is focus. In my opinion, far too much of the book is spent on explaining web sites, domains, and how to go about creating a website. The people I know who have started using AdSense to pick up a few dollars from their site *already have a site*! I don't need an explanation about domains, choosing a site name, and instructions on how to build a page. Been there, done that a *long, long* time ago. The only way I could recommend this book in its entirety would be if someone was looking for a money-making opportunity, and didn't know squat about websites. And if that's the case, focusing on building a website merely to support your AdSense efforts seems a very tall order...

Nice styling, easy to read, and good information about the AdSense program. Unfortunately, well over half the book was off-target in my opinion... Caveat emptor...

4.0 out of 5 stars Great Support!!!, September 8, 2005
By V. Logan (Chicago, Illinois) - See all my reviews
After reading the reviews, I have to agree with the majority. This is a book for those who do not have websites or the knowledge about the Internet. I have about 50, of which a couple pull about 5000 visitors a day. I was able to skip through a lot of chapters and get to the Adsense section. Using the book, I was able to increase my daily intake from about $11 to about $70.00 (that's over $2000.00 a month)and obviously paid for the book. :)

The best part was that I really didn't understand a section and I e-mailed the author, Eric. HE REPLIED!! He has given a little more insight to my particular situation and it has helped. I think that there may be another book on the horizon for those of us who are ready to progress to MEMWG II. I'll buy it.

2.0 out of 5 stars Strange approach and not very informative, May 27, 2006
By Jerry Saperstein (Evanston, IL USA) - See all my reviews
(TOP 100 REVIEWER)      
This is a very odd book. Ostensibly it is supposed to be about making easy money using Google's AdSense advertising program. The book is written as a narrative of characters attempting to build a web site that will make them money. It is truly a strange approach.

Instead of sticking to the subject of the title, the author instead takes the reader through the mechanics of building a web site, including registering a domain name and --- I kid you not --- "finding the perfect name." He then launches into a primer on basic HTML. Very weird in a book supposedly about Google AdSense.

Perhaps this book would be useful for a person totally inexperienced in just about everything, including tying their shoes. As a primer on Google's AdSense program, it is very lightweight. There are far better books on the subject.
