HTML Tags That Will Make You Money

This applies to anyone using Google Adsense. If you’ve been using Adsense for a while now you are familiar with the process involved with creating the code for the ads to place on your site. What you may not be aware of is that there is another tag you should be utilizing around your content areas of your site to more accurately display content ads on your site.

If you’ve noticed none relavent ads on your website, for example an ad for moose hunting tips when your website is a computer repair shop, you should keep reading! Google has a tag that can be placed around content areas of your site which will enable the Googlebot to spider that particular area of your site more effectively.

The HTML tags to emphasize a page section take the following format:

<!– google_ad_section_start –>

<!– google_ad_section_end –>

Placing these tags at the beginning and end of a content section will force the spider to focus on whatever content is in between the tags, and anything outside of those tags is weighted less or not at all.

If you have a particular section that you do not want considered for content ads use the following:

<!– google_ad_section_start(weight=ignore) –>

<!– google_ad_section_end(weight=ignore) –>

This will instruct the spider to completely ignore whatever content is between these tags. Using these tags can certainly help target a more specific demographic on your site if you’ve been getting non targetted ads lately. One caveat to this though is that Google says you need a “significant” amount of content to be effective. Now your guess is as good as mine when it comes to determining what Google thinks is a “significant amount”.
