Adsense for domain is a part of adsense program, where you can put adsense in your parked domain names.

This is like making money out of something which is not using. To make the maximum out of adsense for domain , best advice is buy an expired domain which is suppose to generate some traffic for you without any effort.

Step by step guide to Set up adsense for Domain :

5. Login to your Godaddy account and in the domain tab select the domain. here we have to do two Set up

Creating CNAME and Creating A record

a> Creating a CNAME record

Login to Godaddy account > On left hand side> Domain > Domain manager

In the next screen> Click on the name of the domain you want to associate with Adsense for domain

Now click on Total DNS control and MX record link

Now you have to add new CNAME record, if already any CNAME entry is there, then edit it with the following entry

In the CNAME

Check for entry WWW if it is already there, then edit it else create a new entry

This is what you have to add in new entry for CNAME

• Alias name : www
• Point to : pub-xxxxxxxxx.afd.ghs.google.com
• Replace xxxxxx with your adsense pub id

Now we are done setting up our CNAME record, next thing is we need to set up A record

b> Creating a A record entry

Now for A record Entry we need to point our Existing @ record to 216.239.32.21

and add more A record with

• Host name @
• Points to : 216.239.34.21, 216.239.36.21, and 216.239.38.21

This will look like this

The DNS propagation might take time up to 48 hours. Above all Google adsense will review your application for domain parking and once it will approve the parked domain. It will start showing the adsense advertisement.

So instead of keeping your domain blank, its better serve advertisement and make some money out of it.
