Do you know how your blog performed? Do you know who is your reader? Your reader wanted to read which topic the most? We will never know more about our readers if we never ask. A useful method is using survey.

There are many survey tool out there. As a Google office user, I do not need to look for third party service.

The Benefit of Google Docs Online Live Survey

Finally, in your spreadsheet, you can create graphs and charts from the results, and then publish those charts back on your blog. As the responses going on, the published charts will update automatically. Cool isn’t it? This is why we call it “Live Survey”! And of course, it is Free :)

Google Ads Out Of The Box

Friday, May 2nd, 2008

We all know what Google Adwords is. It is an advertising program that help to make you known to the world by using Internet and computer.

Now, Google has evolved its ads network out of the computer monitor to TV. Yes, it’s called Google TV ads. This TV ads program is by invitation only during its beta on June 2008. It is a good move to grow its giant advertising empire!

No doubt, I believe Google TV ads should be able to reach out to wider networks by feed it’s ads to several dozen TV channels nationwide. But who knows on its effectiveness? As a blogger or internet enterpreneur, do you think this program can help to boost your business? How many TV viewees will go to your website and buy things?

I doubt on its performance. Let’s wait and see. ;)

Today is a great day for me. I just went to the CIMB bank to receive my 1st Adsense Payment via Western Union. It is easy, trouble free and fast!

Adsense + Western Union

Get Ready to Receive Payment

In order to receive adsense payment via Western Union, we must setup our payment form as Western Union Quick Cash in Adsense account. If you are eligible to receive payment, click at view payment history and you should see Payment issued.

Click on details to get ready to receive Adsense payment. The most important details you should get ready before withdrawal are MCTN code, Payment Amount, and Google’s full address. I suggest you print out the page for your easy reference. Also, get ready a photocopy of your government issued ID (IC for my case). (more…)

adsense new formatAfter months of testing, Google Adsense just announced the official launch of new adsense text ad format update.

As you can see from the screenshot on right, the adsense text ad include ‘next‘ and ‘previous‘ (or “up” and “down”) arrow buttons. When a user clicks on the ‘next’ button, a new group of ads will appear in the ad unit, giving readers the choice to select ads that serve them better.

Of course, we won’t earn any cent when reader clicks the ‘next’ and ‘previous’ buttons. When readers click on the buttons, they are more likely to find the specific offer they are looking for, which can lead to higher earnings for you. (more…)
