Raise revenue to fund web development or to re-invest into council projects by offering visitors to your site useful links to related websites.
Google AdSense is a free program that matches ads to the content on your website and pays you when people click on the ads.
“It enhances our pages. The ad content is relevant to what people are looking at. They get the information from us and then go somewhere else, and we get paid for it. It’s win-win.”
Andy Cain, Transformational Services officer, Fylde Borough Council
