Signing up with a Google AdSense Certified partner program lets you have the following benefits.

Getting your AdSense Account Secured: AdSense partners are in direct contact with Google representatives. Each of the accounts are manually checked for policy violations and reviewed monthly, so if you have any violations (unknowingly), they can help you sort them. Also, if you get any account level warnings, they will suggest you what modifications you need to take.

Increased Ad Revenue: Signing up with an AdSense partner can get your adsense revenue increased by 30-100% and sometimes more, depending upon your existing ad setup and the AdSense partner you’ve joined.

How Certified Partners can Help Increase Your AdSense Revenue

Depending on the nature of the site, traffic volume and ad inventory and opportunity, you may opt for any of the ways to increase your ad revenue. Some can be clubbed to offer a hybrid solution. However, the three most popular methods are adsense ad optimization, adx and dfp waterfall model setup.

AdSense Ad Optimization– Advanced machine learning algorithms, multi-variate testing, multi-arm testing let optimization of ad placement, colour, ad type, ad sizes and enable those ads which gets the maximum CTR across a given placement. Also, the system takes into consideration, the various ad combinations and optimize them for maximum revenue. Typically, the learning takes 20-30 days, with an average of 15,000-20,000 page views a day. So, if you have a traffic of around that volume you can try such ad optimization partners.

AdX– The Google AdExchange is the premium version of AdSense and is provided to selected publishers only. This real-time bidding platform sink several other ad networks and deliver the ad with the highest bid to your placement. As such, overall CPM is higher than AdSense. Also, the revenue share is 80:20 instead of 68:32 in AdSense. Overall, this lets publishers make more money.

DFP Implementation- Publishers who have direct ad buyers, media buyers and other agencies, they require special ad inventory setup and forcasting. DFP allows publishers to setup in-house ads, direct ads and compete them with other ad networks so that the ads with highest bid are shown. You can also serve a wide range of ad formats like poups, pop-unders, interstitials, custom banners and more.

Personalized Optimization Tips- Account managers often keep a close eye on the performance of your ad setup and provide recommendations and optimization tips that can be helpful to increase your ad revenue.

Listed below are three adsense certified partners who can help you increase your ad revenue. I suggest you try any one of them. My personal recommendation will be AdPushup or Ezoic if you have good volume of traffic. If your traffic is growing, you may try Monetizemore or the ADX version of AdPushup.

I don’t see any minimum traffic requirement for a publisher which needs to be adhere to get accepted on Ezoic’s platform. However, since the entire process is automated, testing with 1000s of ad combinations, I’d suggest your site to have at least 10,00-20,000 views a day to see substantial revenue uplift.

Ezoic offers ad testing platform for its publishers, using this platform a publisher is powered to test both layouts and ad positions of the website so as to maximize their revenue. Here is how it works,
