How To Put Affiliate or Adsense Advert In Middle of Blogger Blog Post

There are series of tutorials online on how to place Adsense below Blogger post title and at the end of Blogger post but you will hardly see tutorials that will explain how to easily place adsense or affiliate advert in the middle of a Blogger post. This is simply because it's not something you can easily achieve by copying and pasting your ad code in your blog's html.








Although, there exists an advanced hack you can implement to insert an ad in the middle of a Blogger post but I'm sharing with you in this post, a trick that simply involves the use of Blogger's "Post Template" feature.

Post template helps save you time by pre-formatting the post editor. You can use it to format your posts in a certain way. Hence, you can also use it to automatically display your adverts in the middle of your posts.

How To Get Started

==> Get your Adsense code or advert code ready
==> Log in to your Blogger dashboard and go to Settings > Posts and comments, then click Add next to Post Template.
==> Paste your ad code in the box and save. (No need to parse the code).

That's all.

When next you need to compose a post, click on the "HTML" tab of the post editor to see your ad code.

Type your post content above and below the ad code, so that the advert will be in the middle.

When you are through with typing the content, you can click on the "Compose" tab to easily add links etc to your post.

When you are done, publish your post, view and you should see the ad in the middle of the post.

NB: The ad will not display in old posts but automatically displays on the Blogger mobile view.

Try it and let me know if it works for you.

Cheers! 

7 Tips for Ad dynamo Advertisers To Increase Campaign Performance

While trying to find out how retargeting works on Addynamo, I stumbled on some tricks shared on Addynamo website. If you've been running some online ad campaings using the Ad dynamo ad network, below are tips to optimize performance of your campaings:

1. Use CPM for Brand Awareness Campaigns

Although, CPC (Cost Per Click) is rated as the most cost effective form of advertising, you may try opting in for the CPM (Cost per Impression) bidding model if you only want to use the ad campaign to create awareness for your brand.

Ad Dynamo scores ads based on historic performance. Hence, if you use CPC bidding model and your ads have a low click through rate, they will probably be shown progressively less on the Ad Dynamo network of publishers.

Altering the campaign to a CPM bid will effectively instruct Ad Dynamo to ignore the click through rate & your ads will enjoy greater exposure.

NB: You can only select your bidding method (Pay per click or Pay per Impression) when creating a campaign on Addynamo.

2. Create Multiple Campaigns & Ad Groups

If you're running campaigns across multiple countries, it makes sense to monitor the performance of each country individually. You can do this by creating a seperate campaign for each country that is targeted. You can select country to be targeted via the "campaign Settings" on Addynamo.

When you're advertising multiple products or services, it makes sense to create a seperate AdGroup for each product in order to properly evaluate the performance of each respective product. i.e if you create a campaign for your Nigeria online fashion store, you should create seperate AdGroups for men office shirts, women dresses etc

3. Multiple Creatives/Advertisement

The more ad sizes that you load into an AdGroup, the more exposure you can win without adjusting your bid per click.  This is because your ads will qualify for a wider selection of relevant publishers.

Hence, instead of just promoting your product with just a text ad, try to create ad banners of sizes supported by Ad dynamo and upload them to your adgroup.

If you need someone to create ad banners for you, contact me.

4. Enable Google Analytics Option

When creating a campaign you're presented with an option to activate Google Analytics Tracking. If enabled, it will let you  access via Google Analytics, data of traffic generated to your website by Ad Dynamo and more valuable information that can assist you to optimize your campaign.

If enabled, you can view your Addynamo Ad campaign stats at Google Analytics via "Acquisition" > "Campaigns".

5. Enable Ad Dynamo Run of Network Option

The "Run of Network" feature of Addynamo has replaced Keyword targeting. It lets advertisers target all the websites of Addynamo publishers unless they have chosen to disable Run of Network. This will allow you to target a lot of websites through activating it allowing your campaign to achieve good results.


6. Don't Use A Very Low CPC When Targeting Sites

The ad dynamo platform works on a bidding system so the advertisers with the highest bid will have their adverts displayed on a specific website. If you use a very low CPC, your ad campaigns might not record any impression.

According to my Addynamo account manager, the Nigerian average is around $0.12 and $0.18. Hence, altering the CPC of your ad campaign to fall within that range will definitely increase your campaign performance.

7. Track Conversions

A Conversion represents an activity on your website that you would like to track against your advertising campaign. Examples of conversions include: a sale, a lead, a view of an important web page. By tracking conversions, you can monitor the cost per lead, or cost per conversion - effectively helping you to
measure the return on investment (ROI) of your ad campaign.

You can record conversions for your ads by inserting the Addynamo conversion code on your website. Place it on the page where the conversion should be recorded. You can get the code via the "Advanced" tab on the Addynamo Campaigns page.

If you know other tips that can improve campaign performance, kindly share via comments.

12 Making Money Online Facts You Must Know

I know you might have stumbled on websites or blogs that claim they can show you how to make thousands of dollars a day and retire in a month or probably have received emails where the sender claimed to have made thousands of dollars by working only for a couple of hours. Interesting...right?  

Well, all these are just popular tricks to deceive you in believing making money online is easy. Those sites that boast that you can get rich over night are not telling you the whole truth and if you fall for the bogus claims, you might end up frustrated in your quest for making money online.

Now let me make something clear to you… the truth is that online business is real but it takes time to build a way to make money online. You can make residual income online just like I do but there are some facts you must know, which are highlighted below:


1. With a computer, Internet access and a phone, it's possible to earn a living and make money from home, on the internet.

2. Starting an online business requires a very low start-up capital. You just need ideas, personal computer, internet access and some softwares installed on your computer. Although, you can start from Cyber-Cafes.

3. People who work from home are not necessarily involved in scams or illegal business. There are plenty of legal ways to earn money from home.

4. Nothing like overnight wealth on the internet. Working online does not make a lot of money for most people, but over time it is certainly possible to make a strong full-time income.

5. It takes a lot of serious hard work to make money online, and a lot of the work you need to do is learning about the process. You reap what you sow.

6. It is not compulsory you know html, programming, graphic design etc before you can start making money online. You can find someone else that can do any of those things for you. Fiverr.com/jideogunsanya is an example of one of the sites where you can get your job done at very cheap price.

7. You just have to sell something, be it a product (physical/digital) or services for you to make money online. If you don't sell something or render a service, then what will people be paying you for if they are to send money into your account or send cheques to you?

8. You will need to set your own schedule and rely on your own motivation and will-power to succeed in making money online.

9. Internet businesses run 24/7. Your website or blog where you will be making money online will always be available for people to access anytime anyday unless you have issues with your server.

10. You can work once and keep earning on the internet eg. You can create an information product which will keep earning you money for life.

11. Not everybody can make money online. There is no guarantee you will succeed just as there is no guarantee that you will make money if you invest in any business offline.

12. You do not have to be jerk of all trades to make money online. In fact, if you try to do everything people are doing to make money online, you might end up in confusion, which might lead to failure. Hence, pick a model and focus on it. For example, I am focusing on creating content (info marketing, blogging) despite knowing that I can also make money trading forex online, buying/selling stocks online etc

I believe this article should be an eye opener for you if you just want to get started in making money online. Remember, if you stumble on anything that sounds too good to be true, just RUN. There is no magic on the internet. You have to work in other to be making cool money online like I do.
