The c2w Blog

You can now make money on Contests2win.com by creating contests!

How can you make money?
We share advertising revenue 50/50 with our users. All you have to do is sign up for a free Google Adsense Account.

What is Google Adsense?
Google Adsense is an advertising network that serves contextual text ads to websites. Any contest that you make on Contests2win will have Google Adsense ads next to it. Google will display ads that are relevant ads. For example, if you have made a contest on Bollywood, then the ads will be about Bollywood or related products or services. This maximizes your contests’ earning potential.

Is this program free? Do I have to pay anything to start off?
This program is totally free though to qualify for this program on C2W you have to make at least 30 contests. Initially we will be giving this privilege only to the best creators on Contests2win.

All the users who have created more than 10 contests on Contests2win.com have had AdAccount activated. Go to your profile page and notice the AdAccount link on the Left Column.


Can I Use My Current Adsense Account?
Yes, if you already have an Adsense account you have to use your existing Adsense publisher id. You can easily add your Adsense number to your C2W profile.

How Do I get an Adsense Account?
First, click the sign up link on the Google Adsense page.

Then follow the steps below…

Step 1:
Add your personal blog/website in the Website URL field.
(Don’t have a blog? Sign up for one at blogger.com)

Step 2:
Select English as the website language.

Step 3:

How Long Does It Take To Be Approved?

Once you have signed up for your account it will have to be approved by Google. It usually takes about one to two weeks to get your account approved. Remember to keep checking your email.

In the meantime, start creating and playing Contests on C2W.

Please contact us if there is a problem signing up to Adsense. We are not associated with Google, but we will try to answer any questions you have.

How To Link Your Adsense Account To Your C2W Profile?

Once you have been approved by Google (or if you already have an Adsense account) you’ll need to link it to your C2W profile.

First, log into your Google Adsense account. Copy your Publisher Id beginning with the pub- part. If you are confused, please see this image.

Second, log into Contests2win.com and follow the steps below to place your Adsense Publisher number into your C2W Ad account:

Step 1:
Click on “My Profile”.

Step 2:
Click the “Ad Account” link in the left navigation block.

Step 3:
Paste your Adsense Publisher Number in the field. Your number should begin with ca or pub-. Make sure there are no spaces before or after your number.

Step 4:
Paste you Channel ID in the field provided. If you do not know what a Channel ID is, please leave this space blank.

Step 5:
Click the SAVE button.

Congratulations! You have now synced your AdSense account with your Contests2win account. When people start clicking on ads on your contest pages, you will see the hits and income in your Adsense account.
Note: DO NOT CLICK ON YOUR OWN ADS (i.e. ads which you will see next to your contest). This will result in you getting banned by Google. Contests2win.com will not be responsible if you get banned.

If you do not have AdAccount activated on your account, send me a mail with your C2W username (eg: mine is devil - http://www.contests2win.com/users/devil) along with the number of contests you have made. Note you have to make at least 10 contests to be eligible.

If you feel there is a problem or need further help please do not hesitate to contact us.
