When determining whether to incorporate AdSense into your website there are several elements to consider. Many feel that it decreases their brand, though others see it as a useful tool for visitors which creates revenues and makes their content profitable.
The choice can largely come down to the commercial goals and the purpose of your website. Many businesses who sell wares decide to place AdSense adverts within their website. This would appear to be a strange choice, opening up opportunities for rivals to promote their service or product to your potential customer basis.
Many publishers claim that they are only doing this to permit companies who provide ancillary services to advertise. These claims have some merit, as those who for example sell pillows could provide those who sell bedding with an opportunity to advertise.
Although this would make sense, there are still those online retailers who allow rivals to penetrate their audience. Many claim that there are still benefits in allowing your direct competitors to advertise within your website. One of these is that in the end when visitors wish to see your competitors they would be able to see them through a Google search regardless. This may be true however the thought of an established brand like Coca-Cola having a Pepsi advert in their website is not even a possibility.
Despite AdSense being a questionable choice for online retailers, it is surely a good supplementary service for other varieties of online publishers. For example, a website which provides a free service like dictionary gets high levels of traffic, and is able to make their service profitable through AdSense. This has been the case for bloggers who originally provided content free of charge, being unable to reach the scale that is essential to contract with advertisers directly.
This could also apply to other previously free services, including wider forms of info broadcast, and news for example. In 2006 a man who later published a selection of videos claims to make $19,000 a month through AdSense, claiming that he was also contacted by Google to assist him increase the CTR (Click through Rate) that he achieved. The thought of success like this has been a major factor in stimulating online publishers to opt for AdSense.
Many publishers also claim that AdSense makes their website look more professional. Those who are able to contract with advertisers are generally seen to provide a service with large appeal, and therefore those unfamiliar with the program may feel that the AdSense advertiser is in this position.
AdSense however, is also aligned with those publishers who use the service purely to provide links to adverts. Everyone has done a Google search, clicked on an Adwords advert and came into a website which reads top ten resources on this is a major problem, as is generally something that surfers find thwarting. When souls see that it says adverts through Google, and they then see adverts by Google on another site, they may align that site with consumer unfriendly practices. This is therefore an issue which Google has to address, to maintain AdSense as a reputable service.
Regardless of the disadvantages and the websites for which the service may be inappropriate it is still a useful tool for website visitors. Those who visit a website, and click on a link provide revenues for the publisher, tho' those who provide free services are able to generate revenue.
