as promised, here are a few more of the stories and video submissions
we received. This one comes from AdSense publisher Amit Agarwal of
Agra, India.

Amit is a professional blogger and personal technology columnist for
the Financial Express and The Hindustan Times. He maintains a
technology blog called Digital Inspiration, which draws readers from
all over the globe and covers software reviews, web technologies, and
social media. His latest venture, India Inc., carries news and
analysis about business and finance. Amit also runs a message board
where he personally answers reader questions on blogging, online
monetization and software.

In the early days, Amit was only making a few cents on Digital
Inspiration. After optimizing the site, however, his revenue went
through the roof. Now AdSense helps Amit lead a very comfortable life.
Amit says, "I have tried a couple of other advertising programs on my
website, but none of them have been so successful as AdSense. That's
because AdSense contextual ads are always so relevant to the content."

Amit has also found success with several other AdSense products and
features. He currently uses referrals to recommend software to his
readers, and has implemented link units to efficiently use space on
his site. He also uses the Google Custom Search Engine, linked to his
AdSense for search account, and so is able to monetize his search
results while helping visitors navigate through his site's pages with
greater control. As he notes, "Currently 75% of my site revenue comes
through the Google AdSense program. And I get more time to focus on
writing new content for my readers rather than hunting for
advertisers. AdSense has helped change my life forever."

From: Inside AdSense Team

http://groups.google.com/group/Inside-AdSense/browse_thread/thread/292210fb5759f022?hl=en

As we mentioned last week, we're constantly working to improve the new
ad management feature. There's another wave of minor tweaks to this
feature, inspired by your feedback as always.Hide and seekWe've heard
from more than a few of you that you'd like to see a 'delete' function
on the Manage Ads page. To avoid deleting any ad unit that's currently
serving impressions on your pages, we've now added a 'hide' function so
you can avoid displaying ad units you prefer not to see on your Manage
Ads page. Just click the 'Hide' link associated with a specific ad unit
in the Actions column, and the ad will no longer appear when you view
your Manage Ads page. Don't worry, hiding any active ad unit won't
prevent it from generating revenue for you, and you can view your
hidden ad units at any time by checking the box that says 'Show hidden
AdSense units'.Channel IDs for allIn addition to AdSense for content,
you can now view the custom channel ID numbers associated with other
AdSense products (e.g. AdSense for search and referrals). Visit the
Channels page under the AdSense Setup tab, and select the tab
corresponding to the product you'd like to view.Posted by Arlene Lee -

The busy holiday season is upon us, so you may not have the time to sit
in front of your computer waiting for your AdSense reports to finish
running. That's why we're happy to announce that any advanced reports
you generate will soon automatically be saved in your Report Manager
once they're completed. This means that while you can still wait on the
Advanced Reports page for your reports to complete if you choose, you
no longer need to do so -- instead, you can navigate through the other
pages of your account or even log out once you've submitted the request
for a report. You can then view or download your requested reports at a
later time in the 'Recently Generated Reports' section of your Report
Manager, located under the 'Reports' tab of your account. We're
gradually adding this feature to all publisher accounts, so feel free
to check for it over the next few weeks.Your Report Manager will save
up to 20 of your most recently generated reports, which will be
timestamped with the date and time they were created. We hope this new
option allows you more flexibility in choosing when and how you access
your reports.Posted by Arlene Lee - AdSense Publisher Support

To all our US publishers: before you spend the holidays gorging on
sugar-coated culinary delicacies and spending quality time pelting your
loved ones with snowballs, please take a moment to update your AdSense
account tax information so we can issue your tax form for 2007.
Verifying that your tax info is up to date now helps ensure that
earnings won't be withheld from you later. You'll receive a tax form
1099-MISC if you meet the following requirements:
- You submitted a Form W-9, are not a corporation, and were paid at
least US $600 in 2007 OR
- You indicated that you are subject to backup withholding and had
taxes withheldFor those publishers whose earnings are reported, please
note that payments dated in 2007 will be reported in 2007. This means
that unpaid earnings from 2007 that are rolled over to 2008 (for
example, December 2007 earnings paid in January 2008) will not be
included.To resubmit or update your tax information, please follow
these steps:
- Log in to your AdSense account
- Click the 'My Account' tab
- Click the 'Tax information' link
- Follow the instructions on the 'Tax information' page to update your
current form, or to submit a new form.Don't forget to add "update
AdSense tax information" to your to-do list! Posted by Korey Lee -

TOPIC: Introducing the Ad Review Center

Date: Thurs, Dec 13 2007 2:36 pm
From: Inside AdSense Team

http://groups.google.com/group/Inside-AdSense/browse_thread/thread/555064a841d6732b?hl=en

In an effort to provide you with more transparency and control over the
ads appearing on your pages, we've developed the Ad Review Center. This
new feature, which we'll be rolling out to publishers over the next few
months, will allow you to review ads placement-targeted to your site
and ensure those ads are relevant to your site's users.When you first
opt into the Ad Review Center, you'll be able to see all
placement-targeted ads currently targeted to your site, and a couple of
days later you'll be able to review placement-targeted ads that have
previously run on your site. If you think an ad is not relevant for
your users, you can prevent it from appearing again by blocking it in
the Ad Review Center. We recommend you carefully consider the revenue
impact of blocking an ad, since blocked ads won't compete in the
auction on your site, and advertisers whose ads you block may choose
not to target your site again in the future. In addition to letting
publishers weigh in on the relevance of placement-targeted ads, the Ad
Review Center will also help advertisers improve their
placement-targeted ad campaigns. When you block an ad, you'll be
prompted to select a reason. We'll share this constructive feedback
with advertisers so they can use it to improve the quality and
relevance of future ad campaigns.As we've done with past features,
we're gradually launching the Ad Review Center to all publishers over
the next few months. When it has been enabled for your account, you'll
see a green notification box at the top of your 'Competitive Ad Filter'
page, located under the 'AdSense Setup' tab. By default, the Ad Review
Center will let you review all placement-targeted ads after they have
run on your site. However, if you have a strong need to manually review
ads before they appear on your site, you may do so by clicking on
the 'update settings' link in the Ad Review Center. You'll then have 24
hours to review ads before they are automatically allowed to run on
your site. Please note that you can also return to the Ad Review Center
and allow a previously blocked ad, or block a previously allowed ad.We
strongly recommend you keep your review preference set to 'auto-allow'
and review ads after they have run. Ads don't participate in the
auction while they are awaiting review, and ads that you have blocked
cannot compete in the auction either. The actual revenue impact will
vary in each publisher's situation, but when using the Ad Review
Center, please consider the revenue effects of blocking ads or
switching from the auto-allow setting.To learn more about the Ad Review
Center, please visit the Help Center. We hope you find this new feature
useful and look forward to hearing your feedback.Posted by Katie Mandel

http://groups.google.com/group/Inside-AdSense/browse_thread/thread/3bd9ddbba7eea9ff?hl=en

We have high standards for the services we offer, which means we
constantly reevaluate existing features to ensure they are effective as
the AdSense product continues to expand.Our recent findings indicate
that the Onsite Advertiser Sign-up feature, which allowed advertisers
to sign up for AdWords campaigns on your site, hasn't been performing
as well as we had hoped. We've elected to gracefully retire this
feature and focus our efforts on developing and supporting features
that drive better monetization results for you. Call it time
management, call it ROI, call it our unwavering commitment to our
publishers. We want you to earn more revenue, and sometimes that
means "sunsetting" certain features we created.Please be aware that any
links you've created that lead to a customizable Onsite Advertiser
Sign-up page will soon re-direct to the main AdWords sign-up page. Of
course, AdWords advertisers will still be able to target your
individual sites by using placement targeting. Thanks for your support
of this feature in the past. We hope its departure won't cause you any
inconvenience. Posted by Ben Ewing - AdSense Publisher Support

http://groups.google.com/group/Inside-AdSense/browse_thread/thread/c1e6b82ccd553d6c?hl=en

We've been listening to your comments on our new ad management feature,
and so we're excited to tell you about a few updates that stem directly
from your requests:
- You can now view the ID number associated with a specific custom
channel by visiting the 'Channels' link under the 'AdSense Setup' tab.
Many of you told us that you needed these channel ID numbers for ad
management programs you're using. We've added this information to your
account since it no longer appears in your ad code.
- Any ad units generated within the last 7 days that haven't yet
received any impressions will now be listed as 'New', rather
than 'Active', in your status column. This should help avoid confusion
about your newest ad units and those already appearing on your pages.
- You can now view the most recent date when each of your ad units was
updated. Please note that these dates aren't retroactive, so any ad
units you generated or edited before this display change will show a
last-edited date of November 1st, 2007.
- We're starting to slowly roll out the manage ads feature for your
referral units. Just as with AdSense for content units, you'll soon be
prompted to enter names for your newly generated referral units. If
you'd like to make changes to your referral units at a later time, you
can visit the 'Manage Ads' page. In the 'Content' column of this page,
your referral units will display 'Referrals:' followed by the products
or category of products being referred.It doesn't end here, though --
we've got a few more enhancements planned for the Manage Ads feature in
the next few weeks, so keep checking back for more updates. In the
meantime, please continue sending your suggestions our way.Posted by

In September, we introduced AdSense for mobile content to provide a
simple solution for increasing revenue from your mobile sites. We
recently interviewed Jaehong Lee from Japanese mobile site Mikle to
find out more about his experience with using AdSense for mobile
content.Currently, Mikle's bulletin boards attract over a million
unique visitors each month. With user-generated content ranging from
entertainment to nutrition, Jaehong had been looking for a manageable
way to monetize Mikle's mobile pages. He found his answer when he began
using AdSense for mobile content this year.Jaehong highlights the
performance and convenience of AdSense for mobile content, stating
that "the performance of AdSense has been way better than our
expectations. Moreover, the features for managing ad performance are
easier and more convenient than other ads services. It saves a lot of
effort for us in managing and monitoring ads."With features such as
editorial review and the Competitive Ad Filter, AdSense for mobile
content has saved Mikle substantial time. Jaehong explains, "We hire
people to check all messages and comments posted on our site. The cost
of this work was significant... AdSense for mobile content's great
performance lets us be free of a lot of work from managing ad
performance. We now have firm profitability and can concentrate our
resources on the efforts of service development and operation
improvements."To learn more about AdSense for mobile content, please

Recently, we launched the AdSense Story Contest and asked publishers
like you to send in video of your experiences with AdSense. We were
thrilled by the enthusiasm and creativity you put into these videos.
Although we can only award one winner, we'll be sharing some of our
favorite submissions with you over the next few weeks.And now, the
moment you've been waiting for...Congratulations to Don Vandervort from
Hometips.com for his winning video submission! Before we show you his
video, here's a little bit of background about Don and
HomeTips.Interestingly enough, HomeTips.com started out in a backyard
clubhouse. Don converted the bottom floor of his sons' two-story
treehouse into a small office, and launched HomeTips from that office
in 1997 as an online portfolio to promote his books. In 2003, Don heard
about the Google AdSense program and thought it might be helpful in
generating revenue for HomeTips.During the first week, Don remembers
that AdSense revenue paid for coffee; in the second week, it paid for
lunches. Now, AdSense revenue pays for all salaries, overhead, and
business development. "Solid content is the secret to developing a
following," says Don. "If you write expert content with your visitor's
needs in mind, the rest will follow." We'll let Don tell you more about
his site and his story:You can also read more about Don's story on our
Case Studies page.Thanks again to everyone who participated, and stay
tuned for other great AdSense stories in the coming weeks.Posted by

top queries data older than a year old will no longer be available. In
other words, you'll only be able to view top queries reports dating
back one year from the day you're generating the report.If you have
important top queries data which are older than a year old, please run
any appropriate reports and save them before December 10th. You may
also wish to generate a report dating from the date you started with
AdSense for search to today, as data not within the one year window
will be continuously removed.Posted by Arlene Lee - AdSense Publisher

Did you catch the CNN/YouTube Republican debate on Wednesday night? And
are you interested in having the debate available on your site for
visitors to see? We've set up a channel for your video units to play
the night's highlights as well as those from the July Democratic
debate. To get the clips for your video units, choose "CNN YouTube
Debates" as a content provider on the Edit AdSense Player page. You can
also use our new option to choose the specific videos that will appear
by typing in the name of the video you want (e.g., "GOP Debate Song")
into the Hints box under "Automatic targeting."The debates are just one
example of the compelling content that we plan to bring to your sites
with video units. In the coming months, we'll continue to enhance the
depth and variety of the content that is available, while making it
easier for you to discover and choose what best fits your site.Watch
the latest videos on YouTube.comAs always, to learn more about video
units, you can check out our regularly updated FAQs or view our
instructional videos on YouTube.If you aren't using video units yet,
now is a great time to give them a try. Sign in to your AdSense account
and visit the AdSense Setup page to get started with video units.Posted
