As many of you know, I’m an avid WordPress supporter. Needless to say, when I create AdSense blogs, it’s definitely WordPress. Hence, it make sense for me to use the best AdSense plugins for integration to the blogs I’d wish to monetize with AdSense.

In this post, I’d like to show you a habit I’ve when identifying the BEST, and none but the best, plugins.

In normal case, most will just go to Google.com and search for “best adsense wordpress plugins” and you’ll get results like this …

However, I realized that many of the results are similar and rehashed. And the plugins are very much the opinion of the authors. Though this may be a good review source, but I’m still not convinced they are the best plugins.

My favourite place to select the best plugins is none other than the original WordPress.org website http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins.

By default, the results are sorted in Relevance. But since I’m going for those plugins that are 4 stars and above, let me try to sort the plugins by “Highest Rated” ..

Oops, it seems that when sorted via “Highest Rated”, the plugins listed are rather irrelevant.

Hence, I’d need to fall back to the listing via “Relevance”. In this case, I’ll go through the list manually to identify the right one with at least 4 stars and above. The good news is that there is a good list of plugins with 4 stars and above. So which are the BEST? Another consideration factor is the total number of “Downloads”.

So here’s best AdSense plugins I’ve identified for frequent use :

Surprised you didn’t see a whole list? Well, there is no need to. You just need a good one and you’re ready to go. If you beg to differ or have another even better AdSense plugin you’d like to counter propose, you’ll welcomed to give me a buzz and I’ll do a quick review comparison.

I’m an avid fan of Warrior Forum. Or rather, I admit, I’m addicted to it. Addicted because WF is not just simply a goldmine, both in terms of learning and earning. For anyone who wish to make money online, I’d strongly encourage to be a warrior.

There is this WSO (Warrior Special Offer) now available in the forum about this guy, Spencer, who started a challenge to create 100 niche AdSense sites in 30 days … check more. He is now in his 19th day of the challenge. Motivated by his challenge, I’ve decided to mirror his challenge on my very own way too.

For anyone who wish or just starting in internet marketing, aka making money online, you can be very sure that the one thing that makes the difference is … TAKING ACTIONS, MASSIVE ACTIONS. At times, you really get to give yourself a target, a plan and persistence to take actions.

If possible, rope in some of your friends, interested in this, to do it together. For now, let me invite you to join in. First thing first, go to the WSO and let’s do it together.

What Spencer has shared in his blog is simply solid gold. He could has compiled that into an ebook or program to make money out of it. But instead, he openly shared his techniques, plan, results, and most importantly, the persistence to carry through.

The secret to getting an AdSense approval previously was through Blogger.com. All you need to do was to start a free blogspot at Blogger.com, put in say 5 posts (or maybe more) of good unique contents and you’re all set to apply for AdSense and it will be normally approved in under a week. However, recently, the AdSense team seems to raise its bar and standard. They are practically rejecting most AdSense applications – with “inappropriate contents” as one of the most common rejection reason.

All you need to do is to go to Google.com and search for “how to get adsense approval” or “best ways to get adsense approved” and you’ll realized that many new webmasters or bloggers have their applications rejected, even when some really tried to put up good solid blog. Some even shared that Google has sort of mentioned that the blogs must be 6-month with good unique content. Whereas a (very) small handful claimed they got their AdSense approved even though their blogspots are less than 6-month.

Now, for anyone who want to make money online, one of the best monetization methods is definitely PPC, pay per click, and in this case AdSense, which is the best PPC with the highest returns – no doubt the throughput earnings from AdSense have reduced drastically as compared to those high cost-per-click (CPC) years back. Nevertheless, there is no other PPC network or AdSense alternative that come close to AdSense. This is probably the reason why getting the AdSense approval is still critical for online success and the reason why this topic “how to get adsense approval”, in these days when Google is very stringent to approve new accounts, is important.

I’m now sharing in this post what I’ve researched online for the past hours on the possible surest ways to apply for AdSense. So if you managed to stumble upon this post and are trying very hard to get your AdSense account approve to no avail, what you see that may possibly be the best ways to try so as to get your AdSense approve.

So, one thing is for sure. Applying AdSense via blogspot has a low chance of success these days. The top 2 methods shared by many online are :

(1) Applying via Hubpages – http://hubpages.com/hub/How-To-Get-Adsense-Approval-Thru-Hubpages
(2) Applying via Flixya – http://www.flixya.com/post/sudhirshakya/1943685/How_to_Get_Google_Adsense_Approval

Frankly, I did not try those. But based on experience, I know it should work. The question is – the probability that it will work. Definitely not 100%, but worth a try.

On the other hand, my personal take is that I’ll stick to Blogger.com to apply for AdSense. Of course, modifications or refinements must be applied. I still believe that starting a blogspot in Blogger.com is the best way to get AdSense approve. But the usual 5-posts-and-apply technique don’t work anymore. You’ll have to apply these to increase the chance to get the approval :

(1) Content – Create quality blogspot with good unique contents. Not 5 posts but close to 20 post now.
(2) Design – Commit some time and effort to facelift the template and layout so as to provide a more customized appealing look.
(3) Include Privacy Policy, Disclaimer, About Us and Contact Us pages. These will make your blogspot more professional.
(4) Traffic – Start to generate traffic to your blogspot ie. forum (via signature), linking campaign, social bookmarking, article submission etc.

With that, the blogspot will be of certain quality and I don’t think you need to wait for 6-month before you can apply for AdSense. Of course, now you’ll need to take more time (ie. 1 month) and effort to create better blogspots to convince the AdSense team to approve your account. Good luck!

To be precise, the question should be – Can one really make a full time income online?

I’m here to assure you that the answer is YES! Provided of course you take massive actions.

There are galactic amount of things to learn and to apply them when it comes to internet marketing – making money online. Many of my students asked the same question – How to start?

My advice is always the same – start a blog, particularly at Blogger.com, and start blogging on one’s hobby (the niche/keyword). The reason being having a blogspot is free and with this blogspot, one can learn and start applying what he/she has learned ie. adding hyperlink, adding images, centering texts/images, graphic editing, copywriting, search engine optimization … the list goes on. All towards being a proficient webmaster.

And from the free blogspot, one can start monetizing with ie. AdSense, affiliate marketing etc. to really make money online. Then you advance to buying domain names and creating your own more sophisticated PHP powered websites that are visually appealing, effective and profitable.

So yes, you can really make good money online – provided you hone your webmastering skills with never-ending learning and applying what you’ve learned. In short, JUST KEEP DOING (building websites) IT!

Do you know the fastest way to get your AdSense application approved?

The answer is Blogger.com.

All you have to do is to start a niche blogspot based on a good keyword (after keyword analysis of course) and blog for about 5 posts (or more), and apply for AdSense from within your Blogger account, your AdSense should normally get approved in less than a week.

Continue to blog once a day until the spider likes your blog and come back daily to crawl your blog and you can reduce blogging frequency to once a week for maintenance.

Doing this, the SERP (search engine ranking position) and traffic of the blog should increase, bringing you higher AdSense clicks and earnings.

Then the next AdSense secret is … DUPLICATION. The more blogspots you have, the higher will be the AdSense revenue. Happy earning.
