  Your Adsense ad should have 0% deviation from your sites colors. Whoever told you that your ad should contrast with your site's color code cost you a lot of AdSense commissions! Your ads should be undetectable from the rest of your site. This includes the ad frame and the Ad background.

• ense page impressions for the last 2 days.  I did get 27 in the three days previous.  It seems that you must spend some time on the site to get the results you need.  Otherwise, you might be forgotten.

• The beauty

  

  of SheToldMe is you can “scoop” anything you find on the Internet. If you think it is interesting—“scoop” it and watch your ad revenue increase. You can scoop your own articles and link to other stuff—doesn’t matter. By using your own words in the summary, you don’t violate copyrights and the author of the site you post isn’t complaining because they want traffic and you’re helping them by sharing their site.  
• I also mentioned Chitika ad revenue. We get to keep 60% of any Chitika ad revenue. SheToldMe keeps 40%, so be sure to sign up for this bonus deal. Sign up was very easy. Then you just enter your Chitika ID at SheToldMe and you start receiving Chitika ad revenue. They also have a referral program--10% of referred earnings for the first 12 months. Not as great a deal as SheToldMe's referral program, but the pennies add up.

• EzineArticles is one of Google’s favorite websites when it comes to link building and SEO.
• When comparing EZA and KnewThis, it’s important to remember that the sole reason why people submit articles to EZA is to get Traffic and Backlinks. With that in mind, how can KnewThis, which is fairly new, compete with an old dog like EZA?

• Facts about KnewThis:
