What Are Google Ads?
Google has a powerful advertising program that incorporates topic relevant ads on your WordPress blog. When an ad is clicked, AdSense shares the ad revenue with you. So, each click generates revenue for you.
How Adsense Decides On the Right Ads for Your Blog
Google advertisements are called contextual advertisements. Contextual advertisements are a way of describing ad codes that originate from ad topics according to the content on your website or blog. For example, contextual Google Ads will decide what advertisementst topic isrelated to advertisementst on your blog. This is a strategic way of making sure the right kind of advertisement on every website.
The method of determining which advertisement is displayed to your blog visitors is fairly sophisticated. Google software has the ability to scan content and the corresponding ad codes on your blog. Through this keyword scanning process, the system will determine what subjects are presented on your website and Google will exhibit only related advertising to that content.
As an example a web surfer visiting a fitness website that utilizes Google Ads. That person will much more likely click on an ad featuring that particular topic, instead of something irrelevant to his interests. That's why Google AdSense works to your advantage because it is good to know that only relevant Google Ads that interest your particular audience will show up on your website.
Because Adsense Ads correspond to the content of your site, the chances of your unique visitor clicking on the advertisement itself is very likely compared to an ad that has no relevance to your site. Visitors that go to specific websites are loosely interested in that particular topic consequently, it makes perfect sense that advertisements presented on your website should reflect the interest of the visitor. As such, Google shows the right kinds of ads just for your domain. In turn, the ads get more click-throughs and you receive more income. It's a win-win situation.
