10. Sign in with your Google account.
11. When you sign in, you will be on the “Reports” page. We can learn more about this page later and you should become familiar with it because it will give you information about the money you have earned from your page. But for now, let’s click on the “AdSense Setup” tab.
12. From this page, click on the “AdSense for Content” link.
13. For now, let’s just stick with the default settings to keep things simple. Click “Continue” to move on to the next page.
14. Keep the default settings for this screen as well and click “Continue” to move on to the next screen.
15. This screen will allow you to enter a name for your ad channel. Click on the link that says “Add new channel”. A pop-up window will allow you to enter the name for this new ad channel. Click “OK” when you are done naming your ad channel, then click “Continue” to move on to the next screen.
16. This screen is going to ask you to name your AdSense unit. As you can see from my screen shot, I gave it the same name as my new channel for simplicity of this tutorial. When you are done naming this AdSense unit, click on “Submit and Get Code” to move onto the next screen.
17. This page will give you the AdSense code that will be used on your site. This code will auto-generate the ads that will show up on your blog page. You do have options to modify the types of ads on your site, however, this is just an introduction to get you started until you feel more comfortable with your blog.
18. The “My Account” tab is where you can enter in all of your personal information such as your address so that Google can send you the money that you generate from your site.
19. Now head back over to your Blogspot site. Under the settings tab, make sure you are on the “basic” page. This is where you will enter in the information about your blog like the title and description. Be sure to include keywords so that your blog will be easily searchable by the Google search engines. Again, let’s keep the default settings for the rest of this page.
20. On the “Publishing” page you will see something similar to this screen. From here, you can click on the “Custom Domain” link which will allow you to use another registered domain name if you have already purchased one. When you are done, just click “Save Settings”.
Well that is it. Pretty simple. Be sure to play around with the different options and settings that are available to you on Blogspot and on AdSense. Now get out there and start uploading content to your blog so you can make some cash!
Good luck and be sure to keep checking back for more tips!
