I discovered Blogger that allows AdSense

I have been trying to figure out how to get ads on my website for several years now. I heard I could get paid for it but have had no one show me how. Like most things I learn, I discovered how, in my various activities to learn more by browsing, searching each evening when I wind down and just before I retire for the evening.

I do not recall how I came across another free Blog site but I just decided that I would take time to give it a try and set it up. Near the end of the setup procedure, I recall a message about adding Google AdSense and got my head into it enough to start the set up of it. I was getting tired and it was getting late and I was not sure I had set it up so I quit at a certain point. The next day, fresh in mind, I got on another computer to find that I had sent myself or had received email about the setup and more instructions how to create the “code” to somehow insert into Blogger and other sites that allow access to the setting and AdSense.

This brought back memories of all the times I have tried to get help on this and figure out my strangely formatted website at http:\\gbreisch.com\gwb which I used to give out as www.gbreisch.com to see if I could insert the code somehow. My son had set up that site and it allows me to got into the admin panel and change content to some extent. It is very hard to change much of the page arrangements and I will have to play with it and get much more experience and help before I will even come close to the skills of my son with websites.

I was finally able to insert the code that was provided by the AdSense setup procedure into several of the many page “windows” of my main website. I have had so much more fun with WordPress that I have not been editing and updating or spending much time with my main website. I had to change the global update format to html instead of the wysiwyg option in order to insert the code. Then if I went back in with the visual mode of wysiwyg, then I could not see the code and accidentally erased it without knowing it if I changed much else while in the visual mode of editing.

I had way too many “PayPal” buttons in the windows so when I went back to delete them in the visual mode and if they were just under the “invisible” AdSense code, the AdSense code would get erased and I had to go back into with html and paste the code in again. The results were not very consistent and I am not sure I like how the Google Ads show up or if I will be able to gain any $$$ from them.

I will keep you posted as to my progress if I have anyone comment on this. Maybe I can help others even though know one except the Bloggers site helped me. By the way, I am going to try to use the Bloggers site more to see if I like it as much as WordPress. It appears that WordPress will not allow you to make any money with the addition of AdSense. The verdict is not in and I have a few more experiments to do with another website I have called http://www.ski-unique.com/ and will plan to play with the new http://gbreisch.blogspot.com/ before I try much more with the Ski-Unique site. Please visit http://gbreisch.wordpress.com/ to see all the stuff I have accumulated on it. Notice at the top that I have various sub-pages and a page with my contact information on it. I hope to have some way to have a contact page on the Blogger site soon.

Did I say that the AdSense works great at the http://gbreisch.blogspot.com/ site? It does!!!
Now let’s see if I can make a bit of $$$ to pay for some of this education, software, and hardware someday.

Send me money if you can at PayPal at gary@gbreisch.com or just email me - it will be worth your time and will bless you.
Wish me luck and pray for my & your success and Decide to be Happy all the time please.

Aerial photo vs true WGS84 point position on maps

Above is a clip of the overall map better 2008 map I found online.
I was going to insert it below the smaller clip below but I am still trying to get used to this blog format and how to move and edit image inserts.

We need to know. We need a central cooperative system to manage true positions or a way to qualify the positions as to accuracy.
Map Lat/Lon as shown by address - how correct is it on Google Earth or other maps that can look up and show a picture of the house or lot?
As a surveyor I have also found that when I find the true lat/lon using WGS84 datum, I many times get a different position that the exact same object or point I see on the photo overlay. For example, let me look up an address such as 9111 Freedom Ave, Sapulpa, OK 74066 with Google Earth on 20090913:


I have been there, I surveyed that area, and I know that other map locations true lat/lon locations are about 74 feet east and about 14 feet north of the photo position of any point in that area. This particular address/photo location is good and I know it matches up with reality even though the location on the true grid of the photo may be off as much as 80 feet East-North-East here.

How does a person contact the outfit that positions the photo on their grid for their maps. Let me know when you find out because there is little to know contact link to seek answers or a better map or system to quality or correct or certify any of this information except for maybe a few of us Land Surveyors who care enough to try or even understand that the errors exist.

By the way - that aerial view is OLD and that area has changed a lot. There is good 2008 and soon, 2009 county maps available on line downloadable - very big and time consuming to download but available for us to download with patience and high speed connections. Too bad they cannot connect them online to view online like existing OLD aerial overlays. We have come a long way but we can sure integrate what we have better for improvements.
