TestMagic

**Erin** · 04-22-2004, 05:24 AM

Over the course of a few days, I had the pleasure of talking to Google about TestMagic and their AdSense program. I'm happy to say that Google is running the article on their site: Google Case Study.

Check it out!

Very nice, Erin!

By the way, I agree with you that the text-only ads that blend in with the look of this site work well. From a user's point of view, they're not distracting, but I have in fact clicked on a number of them over time. Does AdSense pay you for clickthrough, or only if somebody actually buys something on one of the targeted sites?

Thanks, Ursula. I was very happy to be interviewed, and happier to have been chosen to appear on Google. :o

Although it's no huge secret how Google's AdSense program works, I'd prefer to err on the side of caution by not discussing the program--their terms of service require that we not discuss the workings of the program. Again, as I said, it's not such a big deal, but I'd prefer to play it safe.

No problem - I understand.
It's certainly a nice plug for TestMagic!

**Erin** · 04-23-2004, 02:39 AM

Yes, it's a nice plug indeed.

Anyway, I do believe that this program is radically changing the face of the Internet. And that's not hyperbole.

Great Erin! Google is where I found TestMagic in the first place.

So for you to use AdSense actually makes sense.

Awesome Erin!

Google is also where I first found TestMagic in the first place. It appeared on the first page of the search engine. I think that's where the majortity of people first discover this forum.
