If you have a website making even just a few hundred clicks per month and all you have to monetize it with is AdSense, you're doing it wrong
0:09
Ezoic used to have limits to who they accepted onto their platform
0:13
I believe it used to be around 10,000 visitors per month, but that's no longer the case
0:19
Anybody that signs up with Ezoic, as long as your website has been approved by Google in the past, most likely it will also be accepted by Ezoic
0:30
So you need to set up Ezoic right away. But just because you have Ezoic doesn't mean that you should not have AdSense
0:38
Actually, I've been using both AdSense and Ezoic for a while now
0:42
and I suggest everybody do this. Because if you have both ad platforms activated at the same time
0:50
Ezoic will give you what's called Mediation. So what is mediation? Well, mediation will let your AdSense account
0:59
your inventory and your AdSense account compete with all of the demand running through EZoic
1:05
And the benefit of this you ask is when your AdSense account competes with Ezoic demand
1:10
that's more inventory competing, more competition, and that's going to drive up the bids and the amount that advertisers are willing to pay on your site
1:20
So you should definitely do this if you haven't already, because this is going to allow you to get the highest bids and the highest paying ads on your site
1:29
whether it's from Ezoic or whether it's from your AdSense account. Now, bear in mind, when you're testing with Ezoic, you might be split testing
1:37
You might be going 100% of your traffic through Ezoic. Mediation only applies to the traffic going through Ezoic
1:45
So your AdSense will, in effect, be running on the EZOC portion of traffic competing with our demand
1:51
And mediation basically creates more competition for your other ad platforms like AdSense
1:58
In turn it increases your EPMVs and generates more revenue for you per month Though if you do give mediation enabled onto your Ezoic account you should know that the mediation is not paid by Ezoic
2:14
This mediation is just being displayed on your account, but this money will come from AdSense
2:20
I actually didn't know this before, but then when I did the math and I took, say, May's income
2:27
1896.06. So you take 1896.06 and subtract it from the mediation, which was 95.08
2:42
That is the money that you'll be paid by Ezoic, 1898. And just to prove it, you can come to the payment history
2:48
And you can see in June, which would be May's income. Right here is the income. Here's the payment
2:57
I was paid 1,898 cents. So you're paid the mediation by AdSense
3:05
It's just displayed here on Ezoic, which is a little confusing for me because over here it shows your earnings
3:11
And it includes the mediation, but you're not actually paid that money
3:15
So the past like three or four months, I've been putting into my spreadsheet that this total income here
3:21
So I've been thinking that I've been making this, but I'm really been, I need to subtract all of this
3:26
So this is like $50. So it's about $6 or $700 I thought I made
3:32
but I didn't actually make that. I did make it, but I basically doubled my income
3:38
So I have to fix that in my spreadsheet, but just so you know, if you get this enabled
3:43
this isn't being paid by Ezoic. Before I had this enabled, you can see mediation started around February and March
3:51
According to this, the light mark bar right here is the mediation
3:56
Now if I go to my AdSense account, you can see right here around March, February March
4:03
when the mediation kicked in on Ezoic you can see that the income on my AdSense also kicked in and has been growing ever since So you can see how having mediation enabled onto your Ezoic account increases your income earned on AdSense
4:17
We'll pull up a dashboard here and you will see that you have the standard earnings
4:23
Ezoic earnings listed here, but below that you also have mediation earnings
4:28
So those are the earnings where AdSense is winning. And if we didn't have this future in place, you could be missing
4:35
out on revenue. If you want to track this in your AdSense account, this is also possible
4:41
through reports, custom channels, and then you will find a custom channel here with
4:48
Ezoic listed, and you'll be able to see the earnings here, which should match exactly the
4:53
earnings that are in your EZOK account, as provided you're looking at the same date range
4:58
So if you only have AdSense, you need to sign up for Ezoic. If you only have EZOIC, you need to get
5:04
AdSense and enable mediation. So how do you set up mediation? It's pretty easy
5:09
So the first thing you'll need to do is set up Ezoic, which you probably already have, but if you don't
5:14
I have a video and I will link it down in the description box below on how to set up Ezoic
5:19
It's pretty straightforward. You just make an account. Follow the step-by-step tutorial to get your account set up
5:25
And once it's set up, you're good to go. Then you'll need to sign up for AdSense
5:29
So you'll make an account, get your website on here, and add
5:33
your tracker code. What I normally do is just get the plugin site kit
5:38
and you just connect your AdSense account and it has you log in and everything
5:43
and it places the code onto your website. There's probably other ways that you can get the tracker code
5:49
onto your website, but this is just the method that I found and I use for all my websites and it works just fine
5:55
So once you have both AdSense and EZoic set up on your website at the same time
6:01
then you'll come over here to monetize Then you'll scroll down until you see mediation and you'll see I have AdSense mediation
6:10
And then you just add your Google AdSense You click a button here that says to add it It have you log in And then it will take a few days to have everything get set up
6:23
And once it is, then you'll come in here and it'll look like this. And this is that you know that it's enabled
6:28
So you'll notice mediation shows here. And then it will start to accrue ad revenue day by day
6:34
And these can go through periods or seasons where you might earn, you know, $1 through mediation
6:40
and then you'll find other days you could earn $200 for remediation. It just depends how things are, basically
6:45
But it's just a good tool from Azoic where they're making sure that the publishers are earning as much as possible
6:51
whether or not that payment is actually coming through Azoic itself. You know, they're still helping us earn more using AdSense as well
6:59
And it looks like there's also some other accounts that you could get set up as well
7:03
I don't have any other accounts, but I imagine it would probably be a good idea
7:07
but I just don't have any experience with this. So let me know in the comments below
7:11
if you know anything about any of these accounts. But it looks like you could add any of these
7:15
to do the same thing. But that's how you do it with AdSense
7:20
so you can enable a mediation. And like I showed you, ever since I've had mediation
7:27
my income has continued to increase from AdSense. So it's definitely worth it to put mediation on your website
7:36
So like I said, If you only have AdSense, you definitely need to sign up for Ezoic
7:40
If you only have Ezoic, you should definitely sign up for AdSense. You should have them both on your website and enable mediation to earn extra money
7:48
Otherwise, you're just leaving money on the table. So if you don't have Ezoic set up yet, I will leave a link in the description down below where you can sign up
7:55
It will be an affiliate link and I'll earn a small commission. I really appreciate it if you use that link
8:00
I'm also going to go ahead and put a video right here on how to set up Ezoic on your website
8:06
So if you're in that stage, you haven't set it up yet, then you should check out that video. It's a super simple tutorial, about four minutes long
8:14
So that's all you need right there. So check out that video if you haven't seen it yet
8:18
Thanks for watching, and I'll see in the next video
