How To Get A Google Adsense Publisher ID
What is Google Adsense and how do I get a Publisher ID?
In order for writers to earn money for the Google Adsense ads on their Infobarrel articles we require that you have a Google Adsense account. If you don't already have a Google Adsense account, you will need to sign up for one, as we need you to provide us with your Google Adsense Publisher ID.
First of all, you will need to sign up for a Google Adsense account. It may take several days to receive your approval depending on how back logged Google is. To sign up, point your browser to https://www.google.com/adsense/g-app-single-1 and fill out the form.
If you don't already have a website, you can just place the url of your Infobarrel profile as your website URL when signing up. For example, if my user name on InfoBarrel is 'test', my url would be 'http://www.Infobarrel.com/Users/test'. If you are going to use your Infobarrel profile as your Google Adsense ID, make sure you have at least one approved article, otherwise Google may deny your account due to your profile being 'under construction'.
Make sure you fill out all the Google Adsense information out correctly because they will be sending you your checks for your earnings. The wrong address, means no checks!
That is pretty much it, once you have been approved, login to Google Adsense by going to http://www.google.com/adsense . Once logged in, in the very top right corner you will see 'Publisher ID:'. All Publisher IDs start with the prefix 'pub-' followed by a combination of numbers. This is the publisher ID that we require in your profile in order to credit you with your ad impressions. Make sure you grab this ID, place it in Google Adsense Publisher ID field in your profile and save it.

Once you have been approved for your account, you will want to set up a Channel to track your views and clicks on InfoBarrel. For help setting up a channel take a look at this page: https://www.google.com/adsense/support/bin/answer.py?hl=en&answer=13993If you have any other questions, feel free to contact us!

google denied my account saying they want main page url not sublinks like xyz/dfgh/
this i thimk only works with dommain name of urs particularly
You can submit any domain actually. It is up to the reviewer at Google if they wish to accept it though. Some are more strict than others.
I am new (obviously) ha ha. I just cannot get an approval from AdSense. I used the http://www.Infobarrel.com/Users/test idea with my IB user name in place of test. It came back saying it was denied for non ownership of site, and I needed to prove I could edit the html at that site. It said to get the HTML source code for the site, add a new page, and paste a snippit. Suggestions? I am lost in all of that.
I am currently having the same problem. No one here seems to know the answer.
i think you should try this it worked for me. create a blog and get a free domain name. Adsense does not accept subdomains.
create a blog and go to www.co.nr and get your free domain and point it to your blog url.
apply again and you will be considered into the adsense program.
you have go to blogger.com and create a site first then you can make a html and then make some blogs about what you want your website to be about then you can reapply for adsense thats i how did .

Good to know! It looks as though I may get denied as well since I used my account page and applied prior having one article accepted. At least I know what to expect now.
A good resource on how to get a google adsense publisher ID
Ok, thanks a ton for your support.
I'll try adsense after 10-12 articles submition. hope it'll work.
thanks again

so i already had an adsense account before i started on infobarrel. my question is in order to receive payment for ad clicks on my articles, all i have to do is add my google adsense publisher id to my info barrel account? I dont have to do anything in my google adsense account? the money will just show up as people click? thanks and sorry for all the questions.
Hi Papa0s0,
You are correct. Just ad your Adsense Publisher ID into your InfoBarrel account and you will begin displaying ads on your articles immediately and get paid as they click.
Is there anyway to track individual articles so I know which ones are generated the revenue - can I just add each article as a url channel?
My google adsense account shows much fewer views than the totals listed for my articles. Why is this?
The views listed on the actual articles is a very raw number. It includes page refreshes, when people hit the back button amongst other things. The data within Google Adsense is unique impressions, so the Infobarrel numbers will be a bit inflated on our site.
If you want to verify that you are indeed getting your 75% of the Adsense views, just refresh the page a few times and in the source code take a look at who's pubsliher ID is loading, you will see yours 75% of the time.
Hope that answers your question!
Stupid question, do you want the id with the pub-prefix or without? What do I put in the relevant field in my profile pub-0000000000000 or 0000000000000 ? Thanks, SY
how long will i wait to see clicks and impressions after adding my adsense id to infobarrel
I already had a google pub id and I've entered it into my profile. When I check my google account I don't see infobarrel listed with my other site/blog as being signed up with adsense. Do I need to do anything in my adsense account to make sure infobarrel clicks are recorded? Also, I'm having a problem with my infobarrel account not being verifed yet--could this be preventing me from seeing infobarrel on adsense?
Same question as Hospitalera and Bestmommy - do we include the 'pub-' with our Adsense ID or just the string of numbers ?
Yes- I too am wondering if admin can answer the question if we need to put pub- in the field for adsense on the form we use at infobarrel or not. Can you reply to that question?
Hey Stayfit23,
You do need to include the pub- part of your publisher id.
am absolutely new to this google adsense, so i will like to know more about you people to guide me afterwards.
question:
the adsense publisher id is in the form "ca-pub-xxxxx"
do we take this one or do we have to remove the "ca-" from the beginning?
Hi Cedric,
You can leave the "ca-" part if you want. It will work. you can also take it off, it will work as well.
I am getting:
Before we show detailed stats and information about your site, we need to know you're really the site owner.
I try to verify this with the meta tag and the HTML code but I wasn't sure how to do this and the instructions were just not good.
this is all coming from Google webmaster tools. I really need help - I do have the publisher id code. thanks
Do we need to give Google a Separate URLS for each infobarrel we write? ....it's just that after writing say 50 infobarrels my channels would be overwhelmed with URLs. Have you got a system where we can track all our infobarrels from just one URL??
I am so confused after reading all these posts. I have written several articles and have no idea if any of them are being credited on my Google ad sense. Is there an article that better explains any of this?
Let me see if I have this straight. I just signed up for info barrel and now I need to submit and get a couple of my articles accepted before I go to Google Adsense and get a publisher's Id. On getting a pub. Id, I then enter that number, and only the numbers, into my Infobarrel account page. Once that is done, I will have to go back to Google Adsense whenever I want to check how much money I am making and they will pay me by check when I reach the payout level of $100. Is this correct so far?
Hi Aupoet,
You are not actually required to have articles before submitting to get an Adsense account, but it is recommended as they have been known to reject users that have just submitted their user page with no articles written.
Once you get your publisher ID you need to put in the full ID which includes the "pub-" part as well as the 16 digits.
Other than those corrections you've got it.
Thanks for setting me straight. I hope it works out better here than over at ehow. I'm sick of being lied to and ignored.
I agree, ehow waited until I had money built up then they deleted my account they said I had content that was already on the web, I was writing this myself I knew it wasn't anywhere else.Maybe it was because I always ran it on grammar check, had long articles etc. they thought I wasn't smart enough to write that well..lol..I had over 50 articles and they just up and deleted my account with no money put in my pal pal either.Not sure how I'm going to do here but I'm trying for a bit.
Apparently, Adsense requires a website. What if you do not have one? Tripe4444
Hi tripe4444,
If you do not have a website you can use your Infobarrel profile page as your site. http://www.infobarrel.com/Users/tripe4444 would be yours.
Evening everyone...Please advise where I'm going wrong. I have my google account set up and pub ID placed in infobarrel. In order to set my adsense, I went to my Adsense Setup; there you had several choices; Adsense for Content: Adsense for Search: Adsense for Feed: and Adsense for Domain. I tried going for the domain, placing my entire path of www.infobarrel.com/users/netwelth; but it said "URL must not end with a path". Am I in the right place? Is this where I can insert "infobarrel.com and that's it?
Hey Netwelth,
That is all you need to do to start earning off your articles here at Infobarrel. In order to track your earnings you'll want to add an Infobarrel channel to your adsense account.
For instructions on how to do this check out this: https://www.google.com/adsense/support/bin/answer.py?hl=en&answer=13993
So does that mean, I do not need to go register infobarrel/users/fmwaweru or rather infobarrel.com in the 'hosted domain' section of Adsense domain set-up? All I have to do is add the infobarrel/users/fmwaweru channel to track my earnings?
I have approved articles in my account. And I applied for the adsense account about three weeks back. But till now google has not approved my application. What might be the reason? I have some referrels as well. Can somebody clarify?
Hey Ashkuls,
Have you received any emails from adsense at all? If you have and they denied you, try resubmitting your application. To my knowledge there is not limit to the amount of applications you can submit. If you haven't give another day or two and resubmit your application anyways.
HI..I have posted an srticle on infobarrel, which has been approved and available for viewing. When I tried to create an adsense account (gave the address www.infobarrel/user... for google adsense), it was rejected by google with the below reason:

How may I create a google adsense account - I am currently featured as a top writer on your site, and my article has seen almost 140 views in 2 days...I maybe missing out on some good opportunities to earn...Please help!
Hey Ymotorwala,
Try submitting just http://www.infobarrel.com. This is what we have been suggesting for people who are getting denied on their first attempt and it has been working for them.
Hello! I hope this is not too newbie a question, but how long does it usually take to see adsense and/or chitka profits? Do you earn just by getting clicks on your articles or does someone have to actually click an Ad on one of my articles?
I am not seeing any profits yet, but it's only been a few days, so I guess I just have to traffic my articles more. Thanks for all of your wonderful support, I am enjoying writing here so far!
Hey ljbinkop,
The time line to start seeing income off of your articles can vary quite a bit as the vast majority of Adsense and Chitika ads are CPC based. This means that you are paid out on a per click basis. Keep writing and you will start seeing some money pretty quickly.
I can't get more complicated than understanding the advice 'top right hand corner' at the moment so thanks for that its just what I needed
My article was published at the end of November. It shows no page impressions in Google Adsense, but there are views on the site.
Then I refreshed 5 times to check it- none of them showed my Adsense ID.
I added my publisher's ID immediately after it was published. I entered the entire string, including ca-.
So, either my account here at InfoBarrel is messed up and not including my share of Adsense impressions, or the ca- should not be included. I have removed ca-, and we will see what happens.
Hi naomimills,
Have you made sure to create a channel for the url www.infobarrel.com on your adsense account? If not you won't be able to see what sites are getting impressions under your account. Also, note that Adsense takes at least a few hours before they display stats as they do some number crunching to make sure people aren't click frauding. If you are still having issues please contact us with the contact us form and we'll try to give you a hand.
Yeah, I had added a channel for one article which was showing decent views.
After I took off the ca- and added infobarrel.com I got a few Adsense impressions. The discrepancy between page views on the site and page impressions on Google Adsense is very large, though. I read earlier this is due to different reporting methods. Will this be made more accurate any time in the future?
I refreshed again today to check it. It was weird. The first one was Infobarrel Adsense ID, and then all of them were mine for about 10 impressions.
We are back and forth on if we want to change the numbers we show on articles. I'm sure in the future it will change, but to what, I can't say.
So, you've added the channel for "www.infobarrel.com" right? If you've only added channels for your articles you may not be seeing all the impressions you are getting.
Great article - love the back and forth questions too, answered most of mine!
Very infromative and helpful...Thanks!!!
Hi! I'm still new here in Info Barrel and I'm planning to sign up for a Google Adsense account in order to provide Info Barrel with a Google Adsense Publisher ID. However, I'm just worried about filling out information regarding my home address because probably before the year ends, my family will be moving to another city. And this will mean a change of address. Since it's been said that checks for my incoming earnings will be sent to my address, and as you say "the wrong address, means no checks", I am now quite hesitant to start applying for a Google Adsense account. And also I can't just wait until we will move to our new (home) address before I'll sign up for a Google Adsense account for this will mean a loss of earnings, am I right.
Well, I hope you will give me some light on this matter.
Hi Sapphire,
Once you have signed up for Google Adsense, you can change your address at any time. So if you sign up now, once you find out where you are going to move to you can change your address under your account.
Oh, I see. Sounds good enough for me. Thanks a lot for the info! :-)
Hi again Admin. I've just got my Google Adsense account and I wasn't expecting it to be approved so fast. I thought it would take days but thankfully it didn't even take a day! Anyway, I've noticed there is also Chitika under the Google Pub ID in Manage My Account page. Do I also need to sign up for this as well as with Amazon to get a tracking ID?
Sorry to ask lots, but I'm still new here and I definitely need your help. Thanks in advance!
Yes to get IDs for those ad programs you need to sign up for them as well. They are easier programs to get accepted to than Adsense so you shouldn't have any issues.

My adsense account got denied. it isnt easy to just set up blogger now Mine got rejected three times and one was top level domain that had been registered over a year. they have gotten strict on approved sites.
This comment has been deleted.
Hi, I have been denied by Adsense twice. The first application was rejected probably because i used my new blog's URl. The second try I used my Infobarrel account which I do have 3 articles published.
The reason for being rejected was "Unacceptable site content".
What should I do before i attempt for the third time?
Please help?!
Appreciate it alot:D
Hi Na-san,
I would try applying with just http://www.infobarrel.com and see what happens. I don't know why they would deny it because of Unacceptable site content.
hi admin, I have tried your suggestion but was denied for my application for Adsense again:((((
And the reason is the same.
Thanks for your quick response.
Will give it a try:)
IS THERE ANY OTHER WAY To earn money other than google adsense ?
Yes, you can also use Chitika ads and Amazon ads.
Can also join other affiliate programs, and use the signature space for affiliate links. Just make sure the links are text links.

i need help from someone.
Hi,
To get some help, email us with the question via the contact us form.
Thanks
I am new here as well. I thought InfoBarrel automatically clicks on Google to state that I have signed up you. If not, please let me know how to do it? Thank you.
Hi Mariahardy,
You actually have to sign up for Google adsense yourself and once you are accepted, you paste your pub-id to into your Infobarrel Account page. This will start your ads showing on your articles.
Should I write the word pub followed by the -
to be like this pub-################
or only the nombers?
Hi Eslam,
Write the word pub and then the numbers.
thanks

Hello
I've written articles and ads that appear, but not by my Adsense ID with the knowledge that I followed all the steps required
Thanks for this information. Will do try adsense.
Hi,
I have vieuws and 4 clicks but no earnings.
What could be wrong? Maybe because I'm new here (8 articles so far)?
Hi,
There could be a couple of reasons why these clicks haven't registered, one of the more possible reasons is that Google may have detected these clicks as possible fraudulent clicks meaning they think that you may have clicked on it yourself.

found the 'absence' (first line) rather amusing.
So once i add my adsense ID I am good to go or do I need to take any further steps?
Hey Nate,
Once you add your ID to the site make sure that you link it in your AdSense account by adding a channel.
Dear Chint

Hi Januarius,
Try applying with using just the www.infobarrel.com address and not the user/januarius
I got account with Triond profile only recently. So no need of a TLD. just reapply.
This article needs to be updated to reflect the need to apply for adsense using the infobarrel.com root domain rather. It seems to be what works best.
Back when I got my ID the only thing you had to do was start a blog on blogger.com. They approved everyone within a day. Maybe it still works.
could someone or the admin please confirm whether we should apply with www.infobarrel.com root domain or our user profile (infobarrel.com/user/username)
Hi, I got an email from IB saying that my Adsense ID is invalid. I can't understand it because my account is definitely active and getting regular adclicks from other sites. So I just re-entered my ID (copy pasted from my Adsense dash board) as ca-pub-16digits.
Can the admin plz check it one more time and let me know if its working?
Thanks
And happy writing.
Hi there, I got my Adsense ID and included the ca-pub along with #'s. Can anyone confirm that this is okay? Or do I need to take the "ca" part out as stated in previous emails?
Thanks!
Figured it out a while ago after digging around in IB articles. The pub-XXXXXX... is all you need for your AdSense ID. However, the ca-pub-XXXXXX... is okay, too.
Also, will I ever need my AdSense unit code? I saw something regarding that you need to post that code in your articles, but I wasn't sure if that meant for InfoBarrel or for some other type of site. Any info on this is greatly appreciated!
Thanks!!
Again, after digging around a while ago, you don't need your AdSense unit code for IB articles.
is that publisher ID starting from pub-xxxxxx... ?
Yep. Question was answered WAAAAY earlier in this thread.
Hey! I just got signed up. Please I need a little help with Chitika user name and Amazon Id. Please tell me how to set it up: what exactly do i need to put in--as in if my user name is danlord, do I just put danlord for chitika or what exactly do I need to put in?
Click the link next to the blank for your Chitika and Amazon Id's. It will take you to the respective pages where you need to sign up. Once you sign up you will have the information necessary to fill in the blanks here.
This may be a stupid question but a question nontheless. I just signed up for infobarrel, and I would like to know if this is a legit, easy and safe way to make money? I'm just trying to make a little extra cash online.. I just need the basics on how to get started and everything else. Do I need a paypal? Or do I set my address and they mail me my checks? How does this all work? I'm grateful for anyone who can help me. Thanks. Diana.
I was directed here by a very reputable passive income specialist. So I feel extremely confident about the legitimacy of this site.
When you set up your affiliate accounts they will collect your payment information and that is how you will receive your money. Good luck!
Hi, I followed the advice in earlier comments and submitted by Google Adsense application the www.infobarrel.com URL.
Unfortunately this did not work. The reason they cited was domain ownership: Domain ownership:
To complete our review of your website, we need to confirm that you have access to the HTML source code of the URL you've submitted or were given access to AdSense via a third-party platform.
One of the things they recommend is:
1. Access the HTML source code of www.infobarrel.com.
2. Create a separate page on the site and paste the snippet:
This post confirms my ownership of the site and that this site adheres to Google AdSense program policies and Terms and Conditions: ca-pub-0144484830580474
3. Resubmit the application as described below after replacing www.infobarrel.com in the 'Website URL' with the URL of the page on which you have pasted the snippet.
Does that mean I just add this text onto my existing article page? Any help would be greatly appreciated. Chitika and Amazon were much easier to set up, why does Google have to be so difficult?
Update:
I posted the text they requested onto my About Me page then reapplied with my user page http://www.infobarrel.com/Users/KGrant and it was accepted.
Dear Admin, KGrant,
I got this email the third time. What did I miss?

thanks it was helpful .
A question: I do have a blog that I can put but I don't want that blog monetized. If I put it, can I use my publisher ID for this site? Is it violating their policy if I don't monetize that blog?
Thank you for this guide, I will try to sign up when I have at least 15 articles published.
Thank you for the guidance! I got my account set up thanks to your instructions...You have done a great job with the instructions on this site!
actually I applied for Adsense this and was denied, and message was that, i need to have a domain name eg. "www.example.com" so i registered with co.nr and forwarded my blog url and applied the second time. In fact my account was approved within minutes.
Man I'm a brand new infobarrel user and I had no idea how to put the ads in the article until I read this! Thanks folks at IBU.
i just have signup for this website and will try to get a google adsense approval.

I used my infobarrellink to sign up for GoogleAdsense. I can log in and have an ID but is not fully approved yet. I have to implement the HTML ad code (?)to my website (=which is my infobarrel account). How do I do this?
I have tried to sign up to adsense and I always get the message in red "Cannot connect to the server. Please check your Internet connection and try again" My connection is always working so I am at a loss why this happens, I have tried contacting Adsense admin people. Does anyone else have this problem?
Just got this info and hope it is what I've been waiting for as I have five articles already approved.
Let me try it and thanks.
Hello Admin,
I managed to create my account for Adsense and was approved by google but the message I got said "patially." After I failed to create an Adsense ad unit on my account page as I was directed by the message. I was directed to a tab marked "My Ads" then I select "Content" and I click "New ad unit." But when I sign-in into my Adsense account,the only tabs I see on my account page are "Home" and "Reports." How can I go past the "create an Adsense ad unit" step before displaying ads and possibly getting a code to use in the HTML source of my infobarrel page.
Or could it that I don't need these steps since I don't have a website? Can somebody help me please?
