If you're just getting on the AdSense train and are looking for a quick way to get those profits you've seen being pulled all over the internet, you might be interested in a few tools. These software tools are designed to help AdSense publishers get a better understanding of how traffic is flowing through their website. Some will help you understand which keywords will make you more money and which sites will give you the best AdSense payout
One of the best tools of this type available is AdSense Gold (http://www.profitbooks.com/go/astracker) which can help you better understand which ads and formats are actually getting more clicks and which are useful or almost useless. This program tracks the views and clicks on all publisher pages. It even goes so far that you can see which referrer each visitor came in from.
There is a free tool called SynSense (http://www.singerscreations.com/RSS/Posts/235.asp) which is more of an AdSense monitoring tool. This resides in the system tray and provides updated AdSense stats when you hover over the icon. It's a very nice tool for those who want to know how their AdSense is doing at any time of the day. Google provides you with statistics in CSV format on its website. So someone developed a tool that can download such files automatically and extract a lot of information from them. The name of this tool is CSV AdStats and it is available at http://www.nix.fr/eIt has a large number of features, including the ability to heavily customize reported statistics and export data and charts to other formats. It is in French but the language can be changed to English very easily. Of course, each tool can only access these stats for 15 minutes, but the authors are aware of this fact, and none of these tools will get you in trouble with Google because of it n/csvadstats.aspx?q=download
However, if you browse content most of the time and your favorite tool is the Internet browser Firefox, there is an extension for this program that allows you to view the stats in your status bar. This software is also aware of Google's 15 minute rule and enforces its use, with 15 minutes being the minimum time between updates. The Google AdSense Notifier for Firefox is available at http://code.mincus.com/?p=3 There is also a program called Golden Keywords that will help you find the best keywords for your website. It's really efficient and very easy to use. However, it does come with a price tag, it costs $49.95 and is available at http://www.regnow.com/softsell/nph-softsell.cgi?item=8616-2 As you can see, software developers are creating more and more programs to help you in your quest to maximize your AdSense profits. But before you look for them, remember that Google has some features of its own as well
It offers some reporting (albeit a bit more limited) and using the channel feature is a good way to find out which ads are really driving the most revenue on your site. Keep an eye out for new tools every day Make sure you invest time in your website, as this is the real key to success with AdSense.
