The AdSense API: All grown up and ready to play
Thursday, March 29, 2007
If you're a web developer or host, you may remember that we
introduced you to the AdSense API
last May. With the
AdSense API
, your users can create their own AdSense accounts on your site, and display ads alongside the content that they have created. They can also manage their accounts and view ad performance and earnings reports, all on your site.
In addition, you can enhance your customers' user experience by helping them to make money from their content and by giving them the ability to perform many AdSense functions without ever leaving your site. For example, they can:
Create and manage AdSense accounts
Customize and implement AdSense for content ad units and link units, AdSense for search boxes, and referrals for products such as Google AdWords and Firefox
Generate URL and custom channel reports
Best of all, you get to make money with the AdSense API through the
Revenue Sharing
program. Advertisers pay your users and you when visitors click on your users' ads. Plus, you can earn
Referral Payments
when your users earn threshold amounts within their first 180 days after sign up.
Today, we're pleased to announce that the AdSense API is now open for all developers, with the release of our
open development sandbox
. This is a replica of the live service with some additional support to help you test and debug your applications. Once you implement the AdSense API in the development sandbox, we can go live with your implementation.
So now it's easier than ever to integrate AdSense into your website or online application. It took the folks over at Hubpages.com
less than a week
. We’ve expanded our
developer’s guide
and added more
sample code
to make seamless integration even easier.
Were you ready to start developing yesterday? Check out our
Getting Started Guide
and our
FAQ
. You’ll also find that the
AdSense API Developer Forum
is a great place to discuss the API and get answers to common questions.
