How do I add a referral to my site?

How do I add a referral to my site?

To create a new referral unit and add it to your site, please follow these steps:

  1. Sign in to your AdSense account at www.google.com/adsense.
  2. Visit the AdSense Setup tab and choose Referrals as the product.
  3. Choose your referral locale by picking a location and language in which your site's visitors will most often view your ads.
  4. Find ads that are appropriate for your site in one of two ways:
    - Search or browse for products and services that you would like to display on your site. Remember, you don't have to pick just one; you can pick multiple ads that we'll automatically rotate based on performance.
    - Alternatively, choose your referral units based on keywords you select, allowing you to take advantage of any ads that are later added to our system matching those words.
  5. Choose your category, keyword, or product. What's the difference?
  6. Pick from available ad formats.
  7. Select a color palette for text ads, and a custom channel if you wish.
  8. Copy and paste the referral code from the Your AdSense code box into the HTML source code of your site.

The referral button you've added should begin appearing on your page in moments.
