lol ! should I understand that you can have a premium account only if you have a great website with huge traffic ? I thought it is all about the money...to get a premium one..
Traffic is the major factor in getting premium publisher. Though, with a lot of traffic comes a lot of revenue. Premium publishers can negotiate terms with Google, such as how many ads that can be displayed per page, and what percentage of ad cost Google is to take.
sorry , it is around 20 million page view per month or higher. some info http://www.google.com/services/premium_adsense_overview.html but this is not anymore taken into consideration (based on those that applied and post their experience), maybe, you have to be a friend of adsense team. lol, just kidding.
try to search for google on adsense premium publishers and you will see results that leads to the story of applicants rejection on the premium one, even if they have met that 20 million pageviews
Upper is not asking how to get one, but what's the difference between the two. The difference is that you have more customization options with the premium account giving you much more flexibility. There are also more advantages having this account, but not quite sure what. I think you also may have a slight pay rate increase aswell, not 100% sure on that one though.
hello friend, if you will check the link i have provided, you will see the advantages of having a premium account, that provides what benefits you will have, besides it is better to have an official words that pure speculation, does it?
wouldn't their be a easy chance for their to be this many page views for a forum? If so does that mean that you have a better chance becoming a premium with a forum?
Mental, take a look on about.com. they are premium publishers. last time I checked this site, I did not see there, "ads by Goooogle"
maybe the CTR it is bigger for premium publisher because the "ads by Gooooooogle" logo is gone...results that the income will be bigger.. Most of us know about Google Adsense and we won't click an ad too often on other websites... but if the "ads by Gooooooogle" logo will be no more... I bet than some of you will still click... or.. in other words... the chances for you to click an ad are higher. Am I right ?
One of the benefits is that you get advertising manager from Google to manage your ads and he will do everything for you... You also get more flexible ad formats full list from Google * Customized revenue terms * Flexible ad formats * More robust filtering * Assistance with site optimization * Technical support from a sales engineer * Business support from a dedicated account manager * Monetization of search results
