Adsense Part 15 - Search Box

Welcome to Part 15 of the Learn Adsense Course. In this part, you’ll learn all about the Adsense for Search option that you can use on your site, and whether its worth using.

First of all, the Search box on Adsense for Search is pretty much exactly how it describes. Its a simple box that has the Google logo in and a box for people to search Google on. It is like a mini Google box, and when people search in it, a lot of result are shown. However, to make money from this, there is 3 or 4 sponsored ads above the normal results and when people click on these, you get paid. The amount you get varies a lot. Unfortunately, you don’t get paid just for the search.

This search box is an easy way to make money really. Its just a small box that your visitors might actually like because it enables them to search quickly and efficiently because they don’t have to go straight onto Google to search, and it could even get you some nice money too. There is a lot of people who make quite a bit of extra money from this.

To get your own Google search box, login to Adsense, click Adsense Setup and then go onto Adsense for Search. You’ll be left with a lot of options that you can choose to customize it how you like - so you can change the colours, make the results more safer etc… to help your visitors and to make it look nice.

Surprisingly, it is actually worth putting on your website. Don’t count on it too much because you won’t make that much money from it, but any extra pennies should be appreciated for no work. Try to put it in a good position so you’ll get searches on it and then just wait and hope for some sponsored result clicks.

Thank you for reading Part 15. We look forward to seeing you on Part 16.
