Here is a way that would allow you to earn higher and even turn a portion of first time visitors who come from search engine and after reading the content just close your site up. http://forenet.blogspot.com/2007/12/monetize-with-google-coop.html You can send me a PM in case you have any problem .
That was an interesting post and I will try it to my blog. I know about Adsense and this is my first time to hear the Google Coop.
Nice trick, any way to automate the hotlinking with having to do it manually in each post ?? and thanks for sharing
This is the first time I have run across Google Co-op. It is pretty bad ass. LOTS of potential. You definitely can automate the placement of these keywords to link to Google Co-op. It would probably take me a couple of hours in the evening to get the code done in PHP. Simple back end, build a function that finds keywords that match up with keywords in the DB then wrap them in link code to your Google coop page. Not to hard.
Just to let you all know. Preset query with google co-op is not allowed. The rest of the things can be done and i have been doing it. Just set co-op to search your blog only. you can also set default search box on your blog instead of google search.
You would also need to limit the amount of keyword links in a certain page then because it might appear flooded like spam.
Google offers a feature in Coop that allows you to have hyperlinks of searched queries . I would still contact google to ask their opinion on the subject .
I did think of the same thing using Google's Custom Search and I emailed AdSense and was told it was against their TOS, but I don't know if coop is considered the same thing as Custom Search. It says custom search on your results page, so I'm thinking that it is. What makes you believe that this is allowed?
You can have some script that allows you to show recent queries , another one allows you to show popular queries available at Coop's own site . The Coop has different system .
isnt that different? Popular queries and recent queries is totally different from what you proposed in the first post. You asked to highlight keyword to a Pre-searched google query which is against TOS. anyways how do i make popular query and recent query stuff? any code? Overall your idea was good but keyword linking is not advisable.
I just switched all my search engines on over to google coop. Let's see how much more it'll generate.
it works pretty good in my case. wish u good luck. Just remember not to use the live keyword linking stuff he proposed, its against TOS. you can't force people to query high paying keywords in order to make money.
If you have thousands of queries each day then you have the ability to access the popular stuff code in Statistics .
