Adsense Recommendations: Replace Ad units

Today, when I logged in to check my revenue from Google Adsense, there was a notification on dashboard. It was actually a recommendation to change a smaller ad unit to a larger one. It was suggested with optimist of increased revenue by up to 45 %.

Adsense Recommendations

I remember few month ago there was a suggestion to replace 200-250 pixel wide ads with 300 pixel wide ads. After a thought, I made required changes in theme and had accommodated that and it really worked. However, this time as the recommendations says replacing a 468 pixel wide ad with a 728 one would be a bit harder to adjust.

Let’s see if I can incorporate this one too in the current theme with some effort Smile

Calculus? Oh, sure, I know calculus. It’s no big deal

The lines above are from a book written by Mark Ryan titled Calculus Essentials for Dummies. I should quote a para from the Introduction section of the book …

The mere thought of having to take a required calculus course is enough to make legions of students break out in a cold sweat. Others who have no intention of ever studying the subject have this notion that calculus is impossibly difficult unless you happen to be a direct descendant of Einstein

Its time for me to start with calculus and the first paragraph of the book makes me sure that I would master the subject 🙂

Increasing the Online Earning Through Google Adsense

The Google Adsense Reports Home was showing notification to change one of my smaller Adsense Ad Unit to into a larger one. It is being claimed that If I replace the 250 x 250 ad with 300 x 250 ad there would be 25-30 % guaranteed increase in Revenue.

So, after a week of thought I decided to take heed of the notiification and clicked on create now and created the ad unit of 300×250 size. As I put the old 250×250 square ad in my side bar that was fitting there nicely, now I was required to change the width of the sidebar, which I did without any hassle. Thanks to creator of the Graphene theme for wordpress. I just dragged the slider so that side bar width shows to 320 px, saved and it was done. the last thing was to replace the code in the sidebar text widget.

All done have fun!

Cheapest way (VOIP Service) to Call INDIA

Here, I am going to tell you the most economical way to call India. Of course everybody knows that the Voice over Internet Protocol (VOIP) has already made the international calling a lot more easier and cheaper.

Now even Google provides the option to call phones worldwide using their Google Voice/Gmail account. For India they ask 0.02 $ per minute. Skype‘s rates are expensive if you choose to pay as you go option which is 0.092 $ per minute. Skype rates are competitive to Google Voice when you choose monthly subscription with Skype.

 Yet, there are cheaper options available. Since last almost two years I was using Action Voip and Rynga to VOIP services to call India.

They were charging $ 0.01 and $ 0.009 per minute (excluding tax). Recently I discovered that another VoIP provider that I had used in the past (almost 4 years back) is charging super economical $ 0.006 per minute to call India on cell phones.

The rates shown in the picture are just revised ones seems from 1st of June, 2012 although its still most economical ‘pay as you go’ option to call India over internet. Well, these are the rates of Just Voip, You can sign up and download the application for your PC or Mobile by visiting their site!

And, Please don’t forget to comment here if you find any cheaper option than this one, me and of-course other reader would highly appreciate it.
