The AdSense Code: What Google Never Told You About Making Money
with AdSense
by Joel Comm
An Exceptionally Good Book On Generating Revenue Using Google Adsense
Amazon Reviewer
This book is a concise guide on how to make money online using Google Adsense. It cuts
to the chase and tells you what to do, how to do it and when to do it.
I applied the information in The Adsense Code and began making money (albeit not a lot) the very first day I added adsense to my blog. But, by continuing to apply the tactics laid out in the book, my adsense revenue has increased virtually every day.
The book lays out in a very specific and detailed manner what you need to do to implement Google adsense, how to maximize click throughs and how to set up adsense to generate the most revenue.
This book is great for beginners or advanced users of adsense. Joel explains many ways to use adsense and places to include adsense that I'd never considered.
An added bonus is that the book also gives you many new ideas for generating new traffic to your blog or website.
This book is a must for every serious internet marketers bookshelf.

I was recommended this book at a seminar by probably the British Number 1
in Internet Marketing, Michael Green. He said that The E-Myth Revisited
should be required reading for anyone thinking about starting a business or
who have already taken that step, nd I have to agree with him. It is particularly relevant in online marketing
even though that wasn't the original target market. The title refers to the author's belief that entrepreneurs, typically brimming with
good but distracting ideas, make poor business people. He establishes an
incredibly organised and regimented plan, so that daily details are scripted,
freeing the entrepreneur's mind to build the long-term success or failure of
the business. Reading the reviews on Amazon, it's clear we're not the only ones who think this book is a "must read"

Start
Your Own Home-based Business is a reference for all budding entrepreneurs.
Divided into two parts, part A takes you through everything you
need to consider before starting a home-based business - from
requirements for success, through drawing up a business plan
and cash flow forecast, to matters such as marketing, financial
planning and credit control. Practical, detailed advice is given,
with contacts for further information. Part B of the book contains
concise profiles of over 50 different home-based business
opportunities that could be started. Some of these require specific
skills, training or experience (e.g. book-keeping, website design), while others are
open to almost anybody (e.g. window cleaning, house-sitting). Each profile includes
concise answers to the following six questions: what the work entails; what you need
to get started; who your customers will be?; how much you can make; how to sell your
services; where you can get more help?
