The next big thing? After Adsense

[mnymkr]

So what do you think the next big thing will be? How will Google further the monetization of the web?

[huntz]

Adsense 2.0

[AdsenseAddict]

Introducing "Adsense Pro"

Publishers will have to pay $10 to apply.

Features:
1. No more publishers getting banned

How?

For every invalid click made, $2 will be deducted to the $10 fee. Why $2? So that G earns $5 .

Once the $10 reaches zero, the publisher will have to pay again for his/her account to be active.

2. Valid earnings can be use to shop on Amazon etc.

3. Valid earnings can be use for Adwords

4. Referrals pay much more (Firefox - $10, Picasa - $10, etc)

Anyways, just a thought.

Please add more to the list.

Actually, I think that Google will work on an AdSense Pro idea, but not what you're thinking. My guess is that Google keeps track of a publisher's value to the advertisers (lead generation and sales generation) and will offer a few things that I'd love to see:

1. Lower pay-out percentage in exchange for ad-page approval. I'd gladly give up 20-30% per click if it meant that Google wouldn't allow adsense on a page without approval. Maybe they can even offer higher tier advertising on AdWords so advertisers can pick the sites that have been seen by a human and moderated on. Give up 20-30% but gain income from advertisers who know you're a quality site.

2. I'd love to see AdWords give me the chance to ban sites from my advertising campaigns. I've seen my ads on MfA sites and it really frustrates me. I'd love to be able to shut down advertising on some real lame sites. I think Google will do a better job of giving MfA sites 0.01 clicks and save the good ones for real ones.

3. More ad options, including opening up google_hints to more publishers.

4. More taglines to replace "Ads by Goooooogle" with other phrases to keep things fresh.

5. I'd love to see channels replaced with a basic number (1, 2, 3) and the exact URL. Using Analytics or third party software to track popular pages is ridiculous and completely 1970s-like. They know where the click came from, why not share it?

6. Topic-bans would be nice -- being able to ban certain ad topics from channels. I'd love to have more control (even beyond Google_hints) over what displays. Competitive ad filtering is lame.

I'm really surprised that adsense won't let you automatically see what pages get how many impressions/clicks without having to set up channels. Google obviously keeps such data, why not make it available without having to create channels?

So what do you think the next big thing will be? How will Google further the monetization of the web?AdWords on different forms of media...

Television (relevant ads for the topic of the program for example).

AdWords in a car... A Google car stereo/navigation system (http://www.digitalpoint.com/~shawn/2006/03/google-earth-in-a-car.html) that could show ads based on local restaurants for example (it knows where you are because of the GPS in the navigation system).

Become a free Internet access provider (wireless and maybe at some point fiber/wired) that the costs are covered from ads.

Adsense on video, 5-10 sec short Ads before video. Youtube can make tons of money if they do it

How about when Msn Adcenter and YPN fully go out of beta Google will offer a better payout to ther publishers.

How about Google Affirmative Action?

This is where Google pays you $$$'s to keep you site/s off the internet altogether? Yeah!!

There's a few people / sites I would pay to remove themselves from the web :rolleyes:

[rewlie]

I'm working on the next big thing..

[MaxM]

YPN still hasn't figured out how figure out what a page is about and serve ads based on the content (contextual advertising), they have a long way to go before it's any serious threat to AdSense IMO.
And by the time they catch up, they'll still be in the dust of Google :rolleyes: .

Unless M$ and Yahoo join forces like that one 'leaked' email regarding their alliance is true.


Shadowy skullduggery, twilight tete-a-tetes, and disseminated disinformation may have all been part of rumored talks between Yahoo and Microsoft about their online rival, Google.

[MikeSwede]

I would like them to open up the AdSense code that sites with 20 million hits a month uses. Then we might earn some real money :)

[Gmason]

I would definitely like to MS ad center closely competing with google adsense..

[Deano]

Adsense on mobile/cell phones, bigG listens in to your conversation then serves you an ad based on your conversation. Users of the google phone don't have to pay any tarriffs as long as they don't mind listening to an advert at the beginning and every 5 mins of your call.
Would you rather pay $50 a month for privacy or listen to adverts and get a free phone?

[spyrit]

the most annoyng thing are the sites that are made only to put adsense on them, no real value...only wasted time for everybody..they should do sometrhing about that first!

I agree with this comment, but the only time I come across these sites is when someone in a forum points out a URL for a MFA site. I rarely get to these through the Google search results.

I was at a Marketing conference at the University of California, Irvine, last month and the Sales Director from Google that was speaking kept emphasizing mobile. This can mean cell phone, BlackBerry, Wi-Fi, Wi-Max, etc. and also points out the importance of understanding geo-coding.

Google will go down soon, as their reputation becomes worst time to time ..

[i_am_dhaval]

when adsense banned person apply for this program again?

[mad4]

Adsense will bring in a scoring system like Adwords so they can give more money to the people with the best sites. Currently they pay the same whether adverts are on a crap site or a great site which makes no sense at all.

Also the CPC model is not really sustainable with all the fraud so they might decide to pay for sites to refer users to specific google search results. Once the user is at the results they are likely to click on an advert and google will get paid. That way google pays for the initial click from your site and takes the chance it may be fraudulent.

For example my site about phones would link to a few searches related to Nokia, Motorola etc and google pays me for each person I refer to these searches and hopes to make its money back when the users click on adverts.

nope, i don't think so...there will always be comments , and there will always be google :)

[fortify]

i think they are rising i dont hear a lot of bad repuatation exept for adsense but its just some people

[skimmy]

Yeah they've got a bit of bad press recently about fraudulent clicks, but I think it will blow over all in good time.

[mnymkr]

Do you think the fraudulent clicks bad press has blown over?

I'll glady pay $50 a month, thank you! :D

[jakomo]

Ads + images.

I hope Google guys know that this idea is running. The companies can setup the ads with images. I don't know how Google is loosing this idea.

Google ads to go with online video? The recent acquisition of YouTube sure points in that direction.

Sounds like you have friends at Google ;)
One of my contacts there let a few things slip too, at last year's Adwords publishers' party

There are some exciting plans in store, that's for sure!

I couldn't agree with you more..They should make that a default. For a number of month's when I was new to Adsense I have no idea what more came from where..Make's it offley hard when you're trying to sell one of those site's..

[mothproof]

err....on second thought

[mothproof]

and to think google's motto is

do no evil. (or was it be no evil?)

[is google china still censoring its search result pages?)
