Google AdSense LogoGoogle can now do a victory dance since they now owns the domain name that has the same name as their AdSense service. The previous owners of AdSense.com was AdSense Consulting. Here is a screenshot of the AdSense.com website before Google got a hold of the domain name and re-directed it to the Google homepage via Archive.org:

Here is the recent history of AdSense.com:

  • October 16, the owner was still AdSense Consulting
  • October 23, the domain was transferred to MarkMonitor.com
  • October 31, the domains registrant was set to “Trout & Zimmer”
  • November 1, the domain was officially in the hands of Google

ZDNet also states “MarkMonitor.com is hired by Google to manage their domain inventory — registering new domains for upcoming products and gaining possession of domains that are already taken.”

Currently, AdWords.com, AdSense’s complementary service redirects you to the AdWords page of Google. As for AdSense Consulting, it appears that they have moved to AdSense2.com.

    Hi, I have found a few wordpress - made for adsense templates. I am looking for one that is more “successful”, even if its not made for wordpress (I can convert it).
    Can someone point me into that direction. Trying to speed up my contextual sites.
    here are what I found (if one you recommend is on this list, just tell me.).

    Anything else?
    I also can take a look at sights that have successful ctr adsense templates (But unless you want it public, please PM me it.)
    OK I Just realized I mispelled Wordpress in the title, Man I am an Idiot.!
    Ok now I am a bigger idiot for not realizing the “go to advance” edit. so i fixed my misspelling.
