High Quality of Google Adsense Alternatives

June 15, 2008 · Posted in Google Voice · Comment 

A 52 year old webmaster from the Netherlands got banned from the Google Adsense program in just a few clicks. He went looking around for alternatives and found a lot of very creative brand new advertising solutions. That webmaster was me. Do as I did and you will get a message like:

What was all the fuzz about? The Adsense account was set up for my website witch I started one year earlier as and affiliate for a German / American Void Company (voice over IP, internet telephony). For more help visit towww.google-atm-machine.com.At that time Adsense was new for me and I decided to give it a try. Doing some cutting, copying and pasting with the codes and voila, I was advertising competing Void companies on my website.

Spy ware was already a big nuisance on the internet at that time. In my battle against it I experimented with anonymous surfing via so called economizers and proxy servers with the purpose of hiding my IP address. Simply just out of curiosity, whether or not the number of clicks on my ads could be influenced, I produced them and guess what happened? They were interpreted as invalid clicks. Adsense disabled my account and I have to admit it: they had a good reason to do so (stupid me, what a shame). However it was never my intention to harm neither the advertisers nor anyone else.

For hardworking affiliate webmasters, generating 100% of their multiple website income through Adsense, this must be a nightmare. Google has no obligation to explain its decision in detail.

No way, don’t waste your time, forget about it, don’t pull on a dead horse. Google won’t unlock your account again. for more detail goto:www.youradsenseprofits.com.Remember we live in the internet age and everything is automated. Google’s answers to my sincere and arguing emails were no exception. They were completely robotized. So would this be the end of a dream earning an income with my website? Answer: NO. As the famous Dutch football player Johan Cuff ones stated:

I decided that I had to forget about Adsense forever being an internet advertising possibility for me and guess what I found out? I was not the only one and this nightmare of the possibility of getting banned is discussed in forums all over the internet now. You want proof? Just Google (yes this is a new verb) with “banned from Adsense” and you will see. But what is more important is that the alternatives are given in these forums and on individual sites as well. Here I’m going to share with you what I discovered.

Click bank-ad-sense-script, a new program that serves Click bank based affiliate products in your website. These ads resemble Adsense ads but a lot of webmasters prefer them. Unlike pay per click this program pays for every sale you make in over 11,000 Click bank products. The yield is higher than Adsense because it pays you between 50 and 75% of product cost, witch can mean $ 100 in your pocket from only one click. Click bank-ad-sense lets you make a selection of your favorite products that you believe are not competing with your own product. Similar programs are: Affiliate Sensor and CBPlugin.

Questions And Answers On VoIP Phone Service

June 6, 2008 · Posted in Lingo · Comment 

What is VoIP phone service?

VoIP phone services let you replace your traditional landline phone with one that connects over the Internet. Today, your phone works on what is called the Public Switched Telephone Network (PSTN), a private network that reaches into your home through the standard phone jacks in the wall.

With VoIP services, your phone connects to the Internet over your cable or DSL modem. To do this, VoIP service providers bundle a small device, called a telephony adapter that plugs into the broadband modem and translates the electrical pulses from your phone into IP packets that travel over the Internet. The way you use your phone is the same, even though the network underneath changes.

What makes it so popular?

What made VoIp phone service gain so much attention is MONEY. Internet telephony is cheap. A local and long distance dialling package can cost as little as $19.95 a month. You won’t find any mainstream, traditional calling plans that meet these rates.

What do you need?

To set up your VoIP, you just first need a reliable broadband Internet connection. If your cable or DSL service cuts out even occasionally, you need to stay away from VoIP services. Every time your Internet access hiccups, so will your phone service.

Second, you will need to install the telephony adapter (TA), which comes with the service. Using a standard phone jack, you can plug your existing home phone into the TA, and then plug the TA into your cable or DSL modem using a standard network cable.

Who should you sign up with?

To answer the question of to whom you should sign up with, many providers offer limited national coverage, so the first order of business is to hunt down a provider that offers local area codes and phone numbers in your location. For example, I’m a big fun of AT&T’s CallVantage, but the service lacks 802 area codes for Vermont. So I will use Vonage.

You should also consider up-front cost in the form of activation fees and penalties for disconnecting a service. For instance, Lingo, Packet 8, and VoiceWing, all charge $40 to $60 if you cancel the service within the first 12 months.

How do you know who is reliable?

Brand names like AT&T CallVantage and the new Verizon VoiceWing probably offer the best assurance that the service won’t disappear. But there’s a parade of VoIP startups, ranging from the well-established Vonage and long-running Packet 8 services, to up-and-coming offerings like Lingo, VoicePulse, and Broadvox. If it’s assurance you want, go with the biggest. And right now, the biggest are Vonage and CallVantage.

Another thing to consider is what happens if the VoIP provider goes out of business. Traditional telephone service is highly regulated, but VoIP providers are popping up all over the place in a laissez-faire marketplace. Should your provider go under, it’s quite likely you’ll lose access to your phone number (in addition to your phone service). There simply isn’t a mechanism for recovering from such an issue yet.

What’s the best way to switch?

If you’re able to, adopt VoIP for a second line, a home office or kids’ phone, for example. That way you won’t be in deep trouble should the service go south on you. And you’ll get a very good feel for all the quirks that Internet phone services can bring. If you are happy with the second line after three months or so, it’s probably safe to switch your primary line over.
