The Australian AdSense team has compiled a 5 steps guide to success your Google Adsense. Well, personally I think this is a MUST see video for all serious Adsense publisher no matter Adsense newbie or experienced publisher.

In the video, the Adsense team mentioned 5 important points to optimise your

1. Analyse your webpages

Determine your primary content area for ads location. Large ad unit sizes work best. Also, well presented content will attract better advertisers.

2. Set up custom channels

Custom channels is like a labelling system that help you determine which ad units perform the best. Is an important tool to analyse and optimise your Adsense ads earning.

3. Optimise your ad unit design and placement

After get results from custom channels, start optimise your ad unit design and placement.

There are 3 areas to improve: Ad Size (which work best for sidebar, top banner and footer ad), Ad Colours (Blend background, Borderless, Highlight link colours and URL) and Ad Position (put near where viewers look for information).

4. Maximise revenue from multiple units

Try to put in multiple ad units to maximise revenue. Remember, the first ad unit on the page always shows the top ads. It means the first ad should make you more money per click than other ad units. So, choose your first ad unit position wisely.

5. Track and measure your results

Create report to track your ad units performance and do necessary changes to maximize Adsense revenue.

Because the ads are related to what your users are looking for on your site, the results can be much better than you’d earn from banner networks and many affiliate programs.

For now, AdSense is the best way to make money free online from informational sites even if there are no obvious related affiliate programs. But you don’t need to disregard affiliate programs. You can combine both these ways to make money free online and double your income.

AdSense is easy to join, it doesn’t cost you anything, all you have to do is paste a few lines of code into your pages, and Google does the work of finding the best ads for them from hundreds of thousands of AdWords advertisers. You can check the relevance of the ads by looking at the text ads on the right side of this page.

How to get started

• Go to Google AdSense.

• Fill in the application form and confirm an email that Google will send you. If you own several sites, you need apply only once.
• Google evaluates your site and will follow-up with you via email within 2-3 days (usually within 24 hours). If you’re accepted, you’ll be able to log in to your AdSense account.
• Log in to your account using the email address and password that you submitted with your application, and agree to the AdSense Terms and Conditions.
• Paste the AdSense ad code into your Web pages. There are 10 ad layout choices: 728×90, 468×60, 125×125, 120×600, 160×600, 120×240, 300×250, 250×250, 336×280, and 180×150. In addition to text ads, you have an option of running contextually targeted image ads.
  You can choose the color palette from a long list of available palettes or create your own. You can even rotate your ads through up to 4 palettes.
  The AdSense ad code is unique for your account and is not site/page-specific. You can place it on any page or site you own.

How to get the most out of AdSense

There are three obvious ways to increase your income from Google AdSense…

1) Increase traffic
Create more keyword-focused pages. See Building: Site Content: Choosing Keywords for more information on finding the most profitable keywords.

2) Increase click-through rate
Use simple design with the AdSense ads displayed prominently. According to Google, ads in the skyscraper format works better (especially on the right side of the page). Focus to only one topic per page – that should make it easier for Google to serve up the more tightly contextual ads which means better click-through.

3) Increase the value of clicks
Of course, you can’t do it directly. However, you can find some “expensive” keywords and create pages optimized for them, within your site’s theme. These keywords are highly competitive and you’ll unlikely get high ranking for them, but visitors will arrive from other “inexpensive” pages and click on Google’s ads.

I don’t play play…

An 18-year-old hacker with a history of celebrity pranks has admitted to Monday’s hijacking of multiple high-profile Twitter accounts, including President-Elect Barack Obama’s, and the official feed for Fox News.

The hacker, who goes by the handle GMZ, told Threat Level on Tuesday he gained entry to Twitter’s administrative control panel by pointing an automated password-guesser at a popular user’s account. The user turned out to be a member of Twitter’s support staff, who’d chosen the weak password “happiness.”

Cracking the site was easy, because Twitter allowed an unlimited number of rapid-fire log-in attempts.

“I feel it’s another case of administrators not putting forth effort toward one of the most obvious and overused security flaws,” he wrote in an IM interview. “I’m sure they find it difficult to admit it.”

The hacker identified himself only as an 18-year-old student on the East Coast. He agreed to an interview with Threat Level on Tuesday after other hackers implicated him in the attack.

The intrusion began unfolding Sunday night,  when GMZ randomly targeted the Twitter account belonging to a woman identified as “Crystal.” He found Crystal only because her name had popped up repeatedly as a follower on a number of Twitter feeds. “I thought she was just a really popular member,” he said.

Using a tool he authored himself, he launched a dictionary attack against the account, automatically trying English words. He let the program run overnight, and when he checked the results Monday morning at around 11:00 a.m. Eastern Time, he found he was in Crystal’s account.

That’s when he realized that Crystal was a Twitter staffer, and he now had the ability to access any other Twitter account by simply resetting an account holder’s password through the administrative panel. He also realized he hadn’t used a proxy to hide his IP address, potentially making him traceable. He said he hadn’t used a proxy because he didn’t think the intrusion was important enough to draw law-enforcement attention, and “didn’t think it would make headlines.”

He said he decided not to use other hacked accounts personally. Instead he posted a message to Digital Gangster, a forum for hackers and former hackers, offering access to any Twitter account by request.

“I … threw the hack away by providing DG free accounts,” he said.

He also posted a video he made of his hack to prove he had administrative access to Twitter.

President-Elect Barack Obama was among the most popular requests from Digital Gangster denizens, with around 20 members asking for access to the election campaign account. After resetting the password for the account, he gave the credentials to five people.

He also filled requests for access to Britney Spears’ account, as well as the official feeds for Facebook, CBS News, Fox News and the accounts of CNN correspondent Rick Sanchez and Digg founder Kevin Rose.  Other targets included additional news outlets and other celebrities. Fox won the hacker popularity contest, beating out even Obama and Spears. According to Twitter, 33 high-profile accounts were compromised in all.

GMZ doesn’t know what the reset passwords were, because Twitter resets them randomly with a 12-character string of numbers and letters.

On Monday morning, the Twitter accounts belonging to Obama, Britney Spears, FoxNews and others, began sending out bogus messages.

Someone used the Obama account to send out a message urging supporters to click on a link to take a survey about the president-elect, and be eligible to win $500 in gasoline. A fake message sent to followers of the Fox News Twitter feed announced that Fox host Bill O’Reilly “is gay,” while a message from Britney Spears’ feed made lewd comments about the singer.

It was initially believed that the Twitter account hijackings were related to two phishing scams that surfaced over the weekend. But GMZ’s hack was unrelated.

Shortly after GMZ posted his original message to Digital Gangster, the site’s administrator deleted it, along with the responses from members asking for access to other accounts. But a subsequent thread on the site supports GMZ’s account of the hack.

GMZ said he didn’t access any of the high-profile accounts himself, and didn’t send out any of the bogus tweets.  He thinks he was in Twitter a couple of hours before the company became aware of his access and locked him out.

Twitter co-founder Biz Stone confirmed for Threat Level that the intruder had used a dictionary attack to gain access to the administrative account, but wouldn’t confirm the name of the employee who was hacked, or the password. He also wouldn’t comment on how long the intruder was in the Twitter account resetting passwords before he was discovered.

“Regarding your other questions, I’d feel more comfortable addressing them once we’ve spoken to counsel because this is still ongoing,” he wrote Threat Level in an e-mail.

Stone said that Twitter has already been contacted by the Barack Obama campaign about the hack and has been in touch with everyone whose account was accessed by the intruders. He said Twitter had not had contact with the FBI or any other law enforcement agency.

“We’re waiting to hear back from our lawyer about what our responsibilities are about this and how to approach it,” Stone said in a separate phone interview.

As for addressing the security issues that allowed the breach, he wrote in a follow-up e-mail that the company is doing “a full security review on all access points to Twitter. More immediately, we’re strengthening the security surrounding sign-in. We’re also further restricting access to the support tools for added security.”

GMZ, who said he’s been hacking for about three years and is currently studying game development, said he conducted the dictionary attack using a script he wrote and used last November to break into the YouTube account of teen queen Miley Cyrus.

That hack gained widespread attention when someone posted a video memorial to Cyrus on the account,  claiming Cyrus had died in a car accident. GMZ said a friend of his was responsible for the hoax.

GMZ said he’s used  the same dictionary attack to breach the SayNow accounts of Disney star Selena Gomez and other celebrities.

After YouTube blocked his IP and patched some vulnerabilities he was exploiting, he decided “for the fun of it (curiosity and self-entertainment) I’ll pen-test Twitter.” He was “shocked to realize that there was no rate limit” to lock someone out after a specific number of failed password attempts.

He said he’d never even heard of Twitter until he saw someone mention it on YouTube.
