I’m sure you guys are tired of me talking about my funny videosite, The Masked Dispatcher’s Funny Video Collection, but Desty Online is about my experiences with online business.  I have been working off of Court’s Internet Marketing School site for tips on how to get better rankings with the search engines.

While I do target some keywords for Desty Online, it’s mainly a web journal about my experiences, so I’m not seriously using his thoughts and ideas for DO, but I am going full bore with the Masked Dispatcher.

WordPress Theme Change, Again

Court has adapted a Wordpress theme to take into account his tips from his Keyword Sniping.  It’s a really good looking theme and does great things for search engine optimization, so I downloaded it and am currently using it on Masked Dispatcher.  I’ll be using it for my Wordpress BANS when I finally get it going.

YouTube Based Ads Through Adsense

I had been given some great advice by Michael Martine for my funny video site.  You see, Michael was running a video of the day site before there were embedded videos.  Michael suggested that I use the video units from Adsense.  The video units create a video player that shows videos in a certain genre, that you select, and displays adsense ads in those ads.  It’s a great idea, when they work.

The problem I’m having is that the player isn’t showing 100% of the time.  When they don’t, you get a link “watch the latest videos on YouTube.com”, no ad.  If I’m throwing some traffic at a video and have been getting a 10% click conversion, I need those ads to be up all the time!

I’ve taken the video units down and replaced them with the 468×60 half banners again.  Maybe sometime in the future, the video units can be more reliable.
