Allow Google Adsence in WordPress

  • Unknown's avatar

    I’ve dealt with too many of this type of person offline. They want eight complete drafts before they’ll even sign a contract…they will abandon you at the slightest sign of something cheaper out there…their children are probably walking to school in plastic flip-flops and paper slippers they took home from the hospital when they had their tonsils out, so they can “save for college.” They will be no end of a PIA.

    What? You mean they aren’t all driving Maserati’s with their adsenseless profits? And just who do you think you are anyway? Denying these people a chance to make their million on the internet, just like everybody else is mean spirited.

    Today I’m writing the lesson plan for my How To Blog course for entrepreneurs, and I keep having to strip out the rather vivid language I use in describing the expectation of advertising riches. Sure, it’s like a newspaper where you can put ads on it. The trouble is, there are over fifty million other newspapers out there. Sorta dilutes the market a titch.

    There’s only one other way to make lots of easy money through Google Adsense: Write an e-book about it and sell it to the suckers! And, as there’s a new adsenseless blogger born every minute — it’s a growth industry.

    So’s porn but we allow that. :)

    (Have no idea why I said that. It popped into my mind.)

  • Unknown's avatar

    No, Dr Mike; that’s very different. Porn DOES make money.

  • Unknown's avatar

    Porn makes serious money. You should see what I rent those boxes out for although he does have a guantee on the amount of bandwidth he’s allowed.

    By the way, why is this “Great News!”?

    By the way, why is this “Great News!”?

    I’ve been wondering that myself.

  • Unknown's avatar

    It means that soon, more than half the forum will be stuff we don’t have to concern ourselves with. The SEO sharks can handle that.

    I am just waiting to see how much I will make out of blogging. Maybe I can retire. :)

    *snort* I’m happy to just get a check every month. 13 days until my next now. I’m buying a frigging bus pass.

  • Unknown's avatar

    You can afford a bus pass and laundry service. Cry me a river, dude.

    Couldn’t this month. Had to pay for my meds.

    I like(d) WP.com for not allowing ads. I like my blog being pretty and clutter free. But WP blogs do have ads, or the test ads that have been going on for too long.

    All unique visitors see Ads on my blog and I do not like that idea. Even if I am not making any money out of any ads and I do not want any ads on my blog, I am still having them.

    They may be test ads (http://wordpress.com/blog/2006/07/27/testing-ads/) or whatever but I do not want them on my blog. Ad free is a feature of WP that attracts a lot of people but WP is not exactly ad free.

    Clear your browser of cookies and temp files, search for your blog on google and viola Ads on your blog!

    “Great news” for the user who started this topic and asked for ads.

    Looks like ads are finally in!

  • Unknown's avatar

    So what. There might be many who aren’t so happy about that. I, for one, don’t want my blog looking like a chintzy ‘five and dime’ store. Second, I’ve worked hard enough in life, that I hope I don’t need to use my blog to shill other people out of their money! That’s what I think about all of this “ad” stuff.

  • Unknown's avatar

    I write some simple programs and host them on a site I host myself the ads don’t even cover the hosting costs most of the time, but that doesn’t bother me as I most use that site for test and my WordPress for my personal stuff and I don’t want ads here. There more hassle then their worth.

    Plus hosting on wp.com is so cheap when I get round to buying my domain it will be though wp.
