5.0 out of 5 stars Google Does it again...., Oct 27 2008
This review is from: Google AdSense For Dummies (Paperback)
Before reading this book I knew nothing of the online world of advertising. This book was an excellent introduction and provided a complete explanation of how Google's "Click-Based" advertising program operates. This guide provides step-by-step instructions on how to do anything the program will allow you to do, and is pretty much the best unofficial manual you will find for this.

In addition, this book throws light upon a few other "must have" Google services offered to the web development community to provide insight into your website. In my opinion, Google Adsense is only one piece of the puzzle that is your website and there are many tools out there that can offer you the statistics, but for a simple website Google offers everything you need. Best of all is the price....

5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent and Easy Very Detailed Advice on using AdSense!, Mar 28 2009
By Timothy D. Smith "Searching4you" - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Google AdSense For Dummies (Paperback)
I just finished this Google AdSense book and was very impressed with the detailed easy to follow information. Great for beginners or seasoned AdSense users as it has many tips for all on how to get started, improve and maintain a great ethical AdSense account. I can see where those who try to defraud the AdSense privilege would leave a negative review. For those who are honest and want to learn the many facets of Adsense this book is a must and well written! Nothing replaces this great hard copy in hand that has clear chapter titles and categories that are easy to find! Many illustrations that take you through the steps to set up your AdSense account, preferences, and much more. Very pleased and will search for other titles by this author!!!

2.0 out of 5 stars Book is all right but contains misinformation, April 20 2009
By Crome Yellow - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Google AdSense For Dummies (Paperback)
The book is a decent introduction to AdSense, but contains serious errors.

I got a copy of the Dummies Guide to Adsense and on page 55 it tells you to put this code

User-agent: *
Disallow: /

in your robots.txt file to ALLOW robots to view your whole site. Wow. That code will EXCLUDE all robots from the entire server.

The correct code to allow all robots complete access is

User-agent: *
Disallow:

(or just create an empty "/robots.txt" file, or don't use one at all).

I mean come on...the entire premise of the book is to get traffic on your site and here the author is giving you a "tip" that will shut you down completely.

1.0 out of 5 stars Worse Ever, Aug 31 2008
By Webmaster "DB" - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Google AdSense For Dummies (Paperback)
I hate being harsh, but this book should not be on the shelf. It has to be one of the most disorganized and useless books I ever purchased. You don't need this book to learn adsense since adsense help function is much more up to date and useful. If the book was even organized enough for a good reference I may not of felt I wasted my money, but not the case.

If anyone gives his book a good review, they are either friends with the author or they can't tell it like it is. DO NOT BUY!
