Monitoring Adsense Revenue per website

David Louis Monk · 08-18-2009, 03:51 PM

I am just wondering how other Warriors monitor their adsense revenue when they have lots of websites?

I have several websites, but the Google Ads I show, despite having set up different Ad boxes for each website, are all under the one account.

Do you have to register a new account with Google per website?

I feel there must be a simple answer to this but I cannot find it looking at my Google Adsense account set up.

David you'll need to create channels within your account. Say you have a site on bowling balls and another on balloons. You don't want to use the same ad code on both sites. Bowling balls cost a bit more than balloons.

Create a channel for each site. Make sure in the description you use your keywords to let advertisers know how to target their ads on your site. In this case you'll have a channel for balloons and another for bowling balls. Generate new ad codes and replace the code currently on your sites to correspond with the proper channel.

Hope that helps.

In your AdSense account, go to the AdSense Setup tab, then choose 'Channels'. Then click on the link that says 'URL Channels'. Then just add your site URLs. You don't actually have to update your ads at all. The information will automatically start going into individual site channels.

Custom channels can be used for segmenting within your sites. For instance, I have a 'Left Side Ad' channel. I put ALL the left side banners on every site in that channel. So I have two different 'directions' to slice up my data. I can see that half of my revenue is coming from site XXXXXX. I can also see that MOST of my clicks come from the ad that's embedded in the top of the content, while the ad block on the right side of the site generates almost nothing.

You can also connect your adsense account to your google analytics account. Then when you check your analytics stats for each URL you can see how your adsense revenue as well.

No you dont need to create different adsense account for each website.Create channels for each website name and add your url channels.All the information about clicks and impressions will be seen under each channel

You can't have multiple accounts but url channels work great and are easy to set up. In your adsense account just click "manage channels" to set them up.

Thanks everyone for responding. I must admit I had not studied the Google Adsense site to find out what channels are all about. Now that I can use channels to monitor specific websites to monitor the adsense revenue, that's great.

I will get to work now on changing my adsense codes for each website.

Thanks again
