AdSense API revenue sharing program in Techulator
Dear members,The Google AdSense API revenue sharing program no longer works in Techulator and other sites in our network, except IndiaStudyChannel. We did our best to work with Google and get this resolved but we were unable to get any resolution. As a result of this, effective 22 March 2013, our AdSense Api revenue sharing model stopped working.
Only IndiaStudyChannel.com will continue to offer API based revenue sharing model in our network where members can continue to earn 90% AdSense revenue share.
I understand this will be a huge disappointment for our members. I cannot abandon the members who stood with us during our journey in the past. So, I have quickly implemented a different model to help contributing members. With this model, if you already have an AdSense account, you may provide your pub-id and we will use it to show AdSense Ads using your pub-id.
From monetization point of view, the only difference between this model and the old model is, the old API based model will give 90% share and 10% commission to us but with the new model, we will not get any commission (you will get 100% of the AdSense earnings from your pages for the specific duration). So, even though it is disappointing for us, it is going to be beneficial for our members with our new implementation.
NOTE: This new approach will work only if you have a non-Hosted AdSense account. If your account is a "host limited AdSense account", you will not be able to monetize using AdSense from Techulator. There is nothing Techulator can do to help you upgrade your AdSense account from a Host Limited AdSense account to a normal AdSense account. Read more about removing Hosted AdSense limitation for your AdSense account.
The new model involve a lot of risk for us, and so we will allow only trusted members to use their AdSense pub id with us. You must be a GOLD level member or higher and also should get special permission from us to use your AdSense pub id. If you already had your AdSense associated with us, the old code may continue to work but at 100% share. If your old code stopped working, you may provide your AdSense pub id and start getting 100% revenue share.
