Adsense System
If you are new to Wordpress, then Wordpress
Adsense System has all the answers for you. The eBook is easy
to read, it's 177 pages provide you with loads of
information on every aspect of Wordpress. Delving into
Wordpress can be rather daunting for a newbie, and although
there is a forum you can go to for information, and there's a
pile of information on the Wordpress site, there is nothing to
compare with the way Globala Grishnan has laid it all
out for you.
The first part of the book shows you how to set
up your Wordpress blog, in detail, if you have been having
difficulty with this, you will sail through the process after
reading his explanation. This guy is very much pro blogging, as
he says, Google loves blogs because they are constantly being
updated, not in stagnation mode like many websites. He shows
you how to set up you blog to make it look like a niche
website, so although he thinks blogs are the go, he prefers the
appearance of a website.
Wordpress has plugins which can add
functionality to a blog, but adding plugins to your blogs
may not always be smooth sailing, no worries you are
given detailed information about the process and there's also a
great forum to the Wordpress Adsense System to help if
needed.
You are provided with some valuable strategies
for adding Adsense to your blog, and shown where to put these
ads to increase your CTR.
He stresses the importance of adding content to
your blog, how to organize it, and automate it with a minimum
of effort, and how to create a synergy between all
your blogs.
This is what Globala Krisnan says:
Blogging Wars - Wordpress Vs Blogger
There's a war going on in the blogosphere, and
it has nothing to do with bloggers dissing each other on their
respective websites. The war is about control of the
blogosphere by several great, many good, and tons of terrible
blogging platforms. The average newbie now has "too many"
options to choose from, and the battle for blogging supremacy
is hotter than ever.
At my website and blogs, I'm always asked the
question "Is Wordpress better than Blogger?". The answer, of
course, is "Yes". But to really understand why, it's important
to look at both blogging platforms side-by-side and see which
one you really need.
Here's the comparison scale:
1) Ease of Set-up And Use
Yes, it’s much easier to set-up a blog with
Blogspot.com and get your own Bloggger account. You can be done
in 10 minutes flat. Once you're set-up you can start posting
immediately. If you want to add a designer's touch to your
blog, there are also tons of blogger templates available for
free.
Installing Wordpress however can be a major headache if you
don't know what you're doing. Since you're going to host it on
your own account, you'll need to download the installation
files, upload them to your server, set-up a database, and run
the configuration script.
However, if you know which hosting account to
get, you can choose one with Cpanel included. With Cpanel, you
can do a one-click installation, upgrade and removal of your
Wordpress platform.
2) Customization & Advanced Use
Blogger doesn’t allow categories. You can’t
sort your articles into different focuses, unless you know how
to hack the platform. With Wordpress, not only can you add
categories, you can also display each category differently on
your main page. In fact with the correct plugins you can even
turn your Wordpress into a magazine-like portal.
Publishing with Blogger can be a pain in the
ass. It can take forever to post articles, especially if you’re
making changes to the entire website. With Wordpress,
publishing is much faster, although if you load your system
with all kinds of bells and whistles it can be just as
frustrating. With a Blogger account, you can get additional
features like "Shout Boxes" that improve interaction on your
site. You can also get pretty themes and nifty little tools
that you can add to the core template files. However, that's as
far as you can go with Blogger.
With Wordpress however, the sky is the limit.
As cliche as that may sound, not only can you get themes,
additional "plugins" and advanced tools, you can also extend
Wordpress to far beyond just a blogging platform.
The talk today is about using Wordpress as a complete,
user-friendly Content Management System or CMS.
4) Copyrights and Ownership of Content
I started with Blogger and I won’t say that
it’s bad. But after a while I started to get frustrated with
Blogger, and here’s why: Google Owns Your Content
Google has the authority to shut down your account without
warning if they don’t like what you’re blogging about. You
don't have absolute control over your own blog. With Wordpress,
you own the domain name and the blog is hosted on your own
account. You have full control over your content.
With the self-hosted version of Wordpress (not
Wordpress.com), you're free to write about anything you want,
and use the software in any way you want. Yes, Blogger allows
you to publish to your own domain, but they still own the
database that holds your content! Don't forget that!
5) Search Engine Optimization and Traffic
There's this propaganda that since Google owns
Blogger, they tend to favor Blogger accounts. I won't say that
this is illogical, but from my experience, there's no such
favoritism.
I've heard as many stories of getting indexed
fast and ranking high in search engines from both Wordpress and
Blogger users. As long as the content is good, the spiders will
come.
When you post in Blogger, you can only “ping” a
limited amount of sites, whereas with Wordpress on your own
domain you can ping as many blog directories as you want, and
start getting more traffic.
As a conclusion, I would say that Wordpress is only slightly
ahead in terms of optimization for search engines, and building
large amounts of traffic.
6) Money-Making Potential
There's no doubt that it's easier to get
started with Google Adsense if you have a Blogger account. In
fact you can now apply for Adsense from within a Blogger
account. Not entirely surprising considering the fact that both
are owned by the same company.
With Wordpress, it can get tricky. The default
installation is not enough. You'll need a couple of plugins and
even a better theme to really maximize the Adsense potential.
However, this seems to be getting easier and there's even
"Adsense revenue sharing" plugins around that allow you to
share ad revenue with other contributors and writers for your
blog.
When you start using Wordpress to build your
Adsense websites, you’ll soon discover what I mean. It’s
something you need to experience for yourself. I can tell you
one thing though – when you go Wordpress, you don’t go
back.
