 Too much self-promotion July 15, 2006

I wrote a detailed criticism/ critique of this book, but it didn't get published...??? So here's my concise re-review: The authour spends far too much time plugging his own web sites and software than giving deep suggestions and information. This book may be ok for novices w/ AdSense: a few good tidbits here and there, but frankly, you can get far better, far more reliable and far more UNBIASED information from Google's AdSense homepage and the myriad blogs etc. on AdSense. I'm very suprised that the overall feedback for this book was as high as it is! Save yourself the money, go to the source at Google directly.

Joel Comm's book "The Adsense Code: What Google Never Told You About Making Money with AdSense," is among the better books in the show. Google AdWords and AdSense topics are usually bound as one book, but the principles for success are different.
Before readers start drooling over the concept of making money from nothing, understand the most important fact: content counts. The second fact: well-designed sites are key to success. Content first, design second, and Google is, in a big way, third. That order is crucial to finding value in Comm's book, or any of his competitor's books.
If you have AdSense already, but have never read about the better strategies, this book is for you. If you have a content-driven site, finding ways to smartly integrate AdSense will be natural. Comm can help you figure how and where you can use AdSense. It will help to have a general knowledge about how AdSense works.
A big value to AdSense in a niche site is that if your customers are simply not interested in what you offer, the ads displayed might serve them better than your site did. they came to your site believing you might have what they need, whether it was a product or knowledge. Probably, this is because your site showed well in results of a keyword search on Google. For this same reason, your site will have ads along the lines of what your customer is looking.
Learn to strategically exclude the competition, or off-color ads. Google wants good ads on your site. Whomever is advertising wants his good ads on your site. Your customer wants good ads on your site. And you want good ads. By excluding what you consider bad ads, everyone is happy. Your click-thru increases, and you make more money.
My credentials: I manage a 300+ page website dedicated to Hungarian culture and products. As a niche site aching for traffic, I use Adwords to attract customers, and AdSense to make some money to pay for the site. Professionally, I am the webmaster for a bilingual, dynamic and hard-coded, 7,500+ page site for a major hospital. Knowing Google is an important part of my small site, and my large site.
I fully recommend "The Adsense Code: What Google Never Told You About Making Money with AdSense" by Joel Comm.

 An Exceptionally Good Book On Generating Revenue Using Google Adsense April 24, 2006
Dave Lakhani (Boise, ID United States)

This book is a concise guide on how to make money online using Google Adsense. It cuts to the chase and tells you what to do, how to do it and when to do it.
I applied the information in The Adsense Code and began making money (albeit not a lot) the very first day I added adsense to my blog. But, by continuing to apply the tactics laid out in the book, my adsense revenue has increased virtually every day.
The book lays out in a very specific and detailed manner what you need to do to implement Google adsense, how to maximize click throughs and how to set up adsense to generate the most revenue.
This book is great for beginners or advanced users of adsense. Joel explains many ways to use adsense and places to include adsense that I'd never considered.
An added bonus is that the book also gives you many new ideas for generating new traffic to your blog or website.
This book is a must for every serious internet marketers bookshelf.
 Good information but nowhere near as easy as it sounds July 10, 2006

If you already operate a website and/or and adsense account, this book show you how to increase your earnings. Although he brags about making $600 a day with adsense, very few of us will make more than a couple of bucks. This book does show you how to optimize your ads to increase click through rates but the biggest part in making money with adsense is having lots of traffic enter your website. This book mentions very little about how to make that happen and mainly just recommends other sources that you should buy (which cost several hundred dollars). And unless you are a great webmaster, you might as well just forget it.
This is practical money-making info, unlike most internet marketing BS... August 22, 2006

I've spent thousands (ok probably tens of thousands) of dollars on information about how to make money online. If you're like me, you already know that 99% of the stuff out there is garbage.
This book is different. Google is obviously a real website with a real opportunity. Joel simply shows how to capitalize on that opportunity.
If you have an existing website, AdSense is a REAL way to monetize the content you are already providing. It's not a matter of smoke and mirrors, its just a matter of knowing how to use AdSense in the right way to squeeze the most income out of your pages.
As for some of the comments I've seen about "filler" content... I wouldn't call it that. Sure there's a good 30-40% that is covering fundamentals that would not be new to experienced AdSense publishers... but that is stuff that new AdSense publishers need to know. Plus that leaves a big % of "advanced" technique content which is covered in this book.
Also I saw someone mention about how it seemed to be a lot of self-promotion. I could see how it would seem that way, but here's the thing... He is showing REAL LIFE examples of money-making websites. Most guru's are afraid to show you their REAL sites because they're scammers or because they won't reveal their true secrets. Joel puts it all out there. Also I'd estimate over half the examples are his STUDENT's sites, not his...
Over all I'd say the book lives up to its name. Not the kind of thing I'd want to cozy up and read for fun by the fire on a cold day, but if you're looking for easy-to-digest info about how to monetize websites, this is a good pick.
