How do you make money off of social networking sites? Besides selling AdSense ads, here's another way to do it: open up a store and sell branded materials. Professional social networking site LinkedIn is doing just that. As I hook up with my 380th connection today on this popular site, I noticed this banner ad on the page:

which links you to the LinkedIn store. Right now the items are not very imaginative: but one can just imagine the magic of it all if they would allow customization. Something like See-ming Lee, proud LinkedIn user. Connect with me at http://www.linkedin.com/in/seeminglee would attract customers like never before.

Truth be told, you don't even need a high-tech solution to do the job: You can do as as simple as giving people the option to write their URL or their name on a designated area with a water-proof marker (which can come with the shipped package) and people can create customize content by drawing directly on the t-shirt. That'd be fun!

Adsense as Blog Analytics Tool / 2007 / SML Ideas

No comments:

Aside from generating petty change every month, Google Adsense can also serve as an ambient device for you to figure out how well your blog posts are without jumping into Google Analytics.

I use the 728x90 Adsense units on my professional blog, and I noted that:

When I first installed it, it had four random text ads on it.
Then I wrote a good blog post, and the four ad units turned into three text units
Then the spot hosts two ads
Until finally it turns into one giant ad.

When it turns into a single ad, I noted that:

The first time it turned into a single 728x90 banner, it's usually an Ameriprise ad
Then I'd start getting Circuit City ads
And then I'd get Yahoo ads (as seen above)
Until finally I get Google ads!

And when my blog posts aren't that great, it will start to dwindle back to 2-4 ads... when eventually it might even get to public service ads, which, thankfully never happens anymore. :)

Focus vs Unfocus

No comments:

Some people say that my professional blog is very focus. Actually, it's not. It's very unfocus. It focuses on being unfocus.

When you create synergetic energy, everything comes together. That's what liberal arts education is about, right?
