Add a Digg This button in Blogger

The following way I am using is to add the Digg This button to every post by modifying the template.

Blogger does not allow javascript in posts, and that's the only way Digg.com offers the button, so you'll have to add it to the template, which adds it to every post. If you don't want this, then this article will not help you. If you figure out a way to add the button to individual posts, let me know.

I guess I'm supposed to say here that you should save your template to your hard drive before modifying it. I haven't done that yet, but it's up to you.

So, Go to your dashboard, click the Template tab, then Edit HTML.

Click "Expand Widget Template"

You will need to find this piece of code:




It is about half way down. (tip: you can search the page in firefox and explorer on the mac by typing "apple" "f" and on Windows by typing "ctrl" "f", then typing "data:post.body" and it should find it.

Then copy the code below this sentence and replace the above piece of code completely (take a good look at this code, you can see it adds the replaced code back in)

Now, understand this...this code will add a button to all your posts with a "zero" diggs displaying until someone diggs it, and so, you can go and digg your stories first, or wait until one of your readers do it.

The Digg This button will be placed "align=right", top right corner of your post, so if you tend to put large pictures opening your post, you might want to make them smaller (less width).

For Effective Adsense : 3 important tasks

To achieve effective adsense generating income, there are actually three steps to put into mind before we begin posting our articles/topics/wallpapers in our site/blog.

Keyword search : Find some popular subjects, keywords or phrase. Select the ones which you think has more people clicking through.

Writing articles : Start writing useful content with keywords from the topics that you have achieved in your search. Start posting unique and useful items on your blog/site for which people are searching randomly.

Quality content site : Build a quality content site incorporated with Adsense ads that is targeting the subject and keywords of your articles and websites.

Google Adsense : How we can create URL channels?

By assigning a channel to a combination of pages or ad units, we can track the performance of a leaderboard versus a banner, or compare our different pages.

We can even create a channel to track each of your separate domains, so you can see where your clicks are coming from.

While channels can be used to track performance and revenue, they won't have any effect on your earnings or ad targeting.

There are two types of channels from which to choose: URL channels, and custom channels.

URL channels are easy to implement. There are no changes to your AdSense ad code, so you can create your channels from within your publisher account, and immediately begin tracking performance.

You can use URL channels to track individual pages, or to track groups of pages based on the directory structure of your site.

To track a single page : enter the full path of the page in step 3 below:

Example : example.com/sample.html

To track a script that generates multiple pages : enter the full path of the script, without the '?', in step 3 below. This will track example.com/sample.asp?keyword=one, example.com/sample.asp?keyword=two , etc.

Example : example.com/sample.asp

To track all pages below a specific directory : enter a partial URL in step 3 below.

Example : example.com/sample

To track only pages across a specific subdomain : enter the subdomain in step 3 below.

Example : sports.example.com

To track all pages on a domain: enter the domain name in step 3 below. To track all impressions and clicks across the domain (including any existing subdomains), enter the domain name without the 'www'.

Example : example.com

To create a URL channel:

1. Log in to google account at https://www.google.com/adsense
2. Click the Channels link below the AdSense Setup tab.
3. Choose the AdSense for content sub-tab and click the URL Channels link
4. Click Add new URL channel, and in the resulting text box, enter the URL that we would like to track.
5. Click Add channels.

The new URL channel will begin tracking data almost immediately.

Keep in mind that because URL channels don't require changes to our code, there's no need to designate a URL channel when generating your AdSense code. Once we've created a URL channel, it will track automatically.
