Everything you want to know about the AdSense API
Friday, June 16, 2006
A few weeks ago we ran a post about the new
AdSense API
. Now we'd like to respond to some of your questions.
Can I participate?
Because we're still in beta, we're currently
accepting developer applications
. We're looking for developers who are likely to have 100,000+ daily AdSense impressions through the API. After you've applied, you should hear back from us within a few weeks.
What is the AdSense API?
The
AdSense API
is a free beta service that enables you to integrate Google AdSense into your website offerings. Using the AdSense API, you can enable users to perform a variety of AdSense functions without ever leaving your website. Users can create or manage their AdSense accounts, modify their AdSense ads, and view ad performance and earnings reports. Furthermore, you can earn money by receiving a percentage of the revenues generated by the ads placed on your site.
How much money will I earn?
This depends on how many AdSense publishers you sign up, and how much they earn. For each new publisher you sign up, you will earn a bounty of $100 once they have earned $100. Furthermore, you will receive 15% of the revenue generated by Google ads served using your API implementation. For details, please refer to our
Terms & Conditions
, Section IV, Paragraph 6.
Who should use the API?
Anyone with a large user base that publishes its own content (like blog hosts, wiki hosts, ISPs, or even social networking sites) should look into integrating the API with their application. By giving your users a chance to earn money using your service, you have an opportunity to differentiate your service from your competition while generating additional revenue.
If I'm accepted into the beta program, what kind of support will I get in implementing the API?
At the moment, we're looking into different support possibilities. We've set up a
Google Group
for our beta partners, which we will monitor so we can answer any outstanding questions. Additionally, we have a continually-growing
developer site
, complete with examples. We're also considering ways to expand our support for larger partners.
