| Adsense |
A technology from Google to display googles advertisement in the pages. The contents of the advertisement will be nearly related to the contents of the webpage where the advertisement is placed. For this action, google must crawl the webpage, and know its contents. Hence, there might be a chance that google will make a good ranking in the search engine too. Once the ad is shown in a page, Adsense immediately knows that the page is to be read out. The manual says that it takes about 48 hours to complete the crawling of the page, after the ad was first displayed. |
