Apple Brings AdSense to the Masses

  • 46 Comments

With the release yesterday of iLife 08. Apple has added AdSense right into iWeb. You’ll notice that they seem to push the google maps intergration not adsense, so I was watching the demo video for iLife and got some shots of how easy it will be for people to add AdSense to their pages.

iWeb Adsense 1 iWeb Adsense 2 iWeb Adsense 3

This is an interesting addition to the suite and one that will surely interesting to see if/how people use it.

    bigdave,

    i’ve seen a lot of your post’s about adsense? what is your website?

  2. bradman1965

    Apple will quickly pull some major cash as a pseudo-affiliate with this program. Why do you think they introduced Safari for Windows. It’s nice to have a Windows platform html renderer for IPhone, but it’s mainly just another Google driven revenue stream.

  3. TechZilo

    i am tired of commenting…oh well!

  4. TechZilo

    i use windows only for the software it supports…as for looks, mac wins, and i use emulation packs.

  5. TechZilo

    maybe not surprising… ;)
    which do you use, shoe?

  6. TechZilo

    Apple and whatever….its just marketing buzz

  7. TechZilo

    David, dare to publish ur earnings from TechZi alone? i’d like the figures, for all the buzz the blog creates.

  8. TechZilo

    Apple+Google= One big mess for ol’ M$ ;)

  9. TechZilo

    This is interesting…..
    So many Mac fans here….seems surprising.

  10. stupid 3gp

    Nice application. Looking forward to use it

  11. BloggingDosh

    Good on em. They deserve to make some cash for the great piece of software they put out

  12. BloggingDosh

    I got a Macbook about two weeks ago and im loving it! But im not loving the fact they have just released the iLife. I might just wait a month or so before buying it

  13. cooliojones

    Microsoft better do something soon, because the whole world of technology revolves around Google and Apple right now.

  14. Shortshire

    I am wondering how much Apple is getting from even having that option on their blog software. The first timers to the blogs are going to try to generate money for adsense but soon realize that they need 100 dollars in a 100 days from random clicks. Many users will not make this and probably get angry at the iLife 08 for not being able to make enough money.

  15. Modern Worker

    On the flipside, this will help those who push out open source apps/software/etc to get something back in return. I strongly believe that developers/designers should have the option to make money (directly or less directly) from their toils.

  16. Stuart Hannig

    Kind of sucks to see developers pushing advertising like this.

  17. chrisblogging.com

    This is very interesting, and a story that I have not seen elsewhere. Once again you break the news for me!

  18. Joeychgo

    Ive noticed this also….

  19. Modern Worker

    Har Har :-p I can’t help but feel that they’ll break into t.v. somehow very soon in attempt to revolutionize tele-advertising (something’s prob. already in the works)

  20. Modern Worker

    As time goes on, Google and Apple are seen more often holding hands while strolling through the Internet. Hmm…

  21. Nathan H

    Too bad Goggle is a horrible company and bans people who do nothing wrong.

  22. Leonid Shalimov

    Sweet, thanks for the info I gotta try this out!

  23. Deelip

    This seems a cool application but I yet have to use iweb. Never saw the thing before. :)

  24. Gecko Tales

    It’s about time Google figured out a way to make money.

  25. Joeychgo

    toruble is, publishers are lokoing for ways to make more money, and some are leaving Adsense, replacing adsense with other programs.

  26. David Wilkinson

    Likewise – I’m seriously considering laying my hands on a MacBook Pro sometime pretty soon.

  27. Tecsible

    This photo will be very very popular for sure.

  28. Stephen

    How many bloggers have–or can get approved for–an AdSense ID? This is not that significant.

    They’ve really cracked down on approving new AdSense publishers, and it’s about time. The content network is so dodgy now that on my AdWords campaigns I either turn it off, or set a maximum of $0.01 for the content network stuff.

  29. koen

    I’m getting my copy of iLife ‘08 and iWork ‘08 today :) and I’m going to try out the AdSense thing for sure :D I already pointed my domain to .Mac for testing.

  30. BlueDevilMedia

    haha…I’m sure that pic will be more popular than the adsense check one day!

  31. PrintnPost

    Shoe…Ok..this has nothing to do with the posting but can i just say thank you for having this blog!…i found it at least a over year ago but didnt pay much attention. So i’ve been really trying to save up to buy a place and remebered your adsense check so started to really dig for info…and now im looking at about $450 for this month in adsense at current daily revenue rate and for 2 weeks now..i started trying out adzoogle and i’ve made $110 with a great margin of return.

    So full heartly..thank you!

    And if you haven’t checked out my site…I’m helping others make money with adsense and telling them what I learn.

  32. Increase WebSite Traffic

    looking at your photo album,

    are you accepting plus size guys as paid shirt models?

  33. Joeychgo

    and will eventually open them up to the same antitrust liability in time, IMO.

  34. Grivon

    Hah yea… and supposedly none (non 99% anyways) of the original developers get a cut… it’s incredible really…

  35. Grivon

    I’m thinking of getting a mac so this is interesting – I wonder if this is through the google adsense api and whether or not publishers are getting a full revenue share?? jensense must know!? Ask her for me shoe?! I don’t think a question from myself would warrant a response :p

  36. jim

    Google > Microsoft because instead of them shoving themselves down your throat, they get other people to do it for them. Beaaautiful.

  37. Hawaii SEO

    I found the answer… It’s a WYSIWYG application but it appears very limited at first glance. I have always wished that someone would develop a WYSIWYG application for developing WordPress themes.

  38. Hawaii SEO

    The demo image shows a Travel Blog… What blog platform are they editing with the software or are they creating a blog from scratch with a WYSIWYG application?

  39. Blackbeard

    iWeb is a cool app and all, but I honestly haven’t seen it used for much. People who take the “free” route tend to go blogger, wordpress, myspace, etc… I don’t see this making much impact.

  40. Blackbeard

    Yes they do, it adds up to like $50-75 million a year from Google. Of course, I’m assuming Firefox has adeal with Yahoo, eBay, etc… too, but perhaps they don’t.

  41. hoodmonkey

    didnt blogger/blogspot brought easy adsense integration to the masses. they even have/had the ability to sign up for adsense on blogger.

  42. Travel Notebook

    Does firefox get credit for the adsense clicks from search results coming from their browser?

  43. Jason Golod

    Oh man, they are going to make a fortune with that. Just like the Firefox google search box. Can you tell I am trying to be the top commenter?

  44. Paul.

    Pretty cool application. I am seriously considering a Mac.

  45. ShoeMoney

    no, you use your account or sign up (as shown in the 2nd screen shot)

  46. Pogung177

    So Apple have a pub-id…?
