Google Beta: AdSense On RSS Feeds
(rt) Jenstar reports on her → JenSense blog on the recent buzz Google’s beta testing of AdWords on RSS feeds as featured on → LonghornBlogs and raved about by → Chris Pirillo of Lockergnome fame and by Darren Rowse of → ProBlogger.
Currently, ↗ LonghornBlogs.com … is the only site running this test, but this is expected to change in the coming days.
What’s innovative about this is that the ads are served using HTML code instead of the usual JavaScript. JenSense is currently the only blog actually displaying the → full code.
More tangible information is hard to come by at the moment – after all, this is officially a beta test so it’s too early to gauge the exact impact it will have on the blogosphere. However, it stands to reason to assume that, if successful, bloggers will flock in droves towards this new revenue honeypot. Writes Jenstar:
And it is yet another step by Google AdSense to keep publishers happy with plenty of options with the Yahoo! Publisher Network on the horizon. AdSense has really been stepping up their game in the last month or so, and the changes and updates they have recently released will likely make it harder for YPN to gain a loyal following, unless they are going to offer more benefits, options and a higher EPC.
