By running ad campaigns, you earn money from Google Ads.
As a Google Ads merchant, you earn money from the traffic generated by your ads.
But by creating a platform... you can profit from both ends.
Admittedly, given Gamenova's current exposure and daily visitor count, even a random GG slot could fetch an astronomical price.
But that's not elegant enough.
The initial appeal of the "GG bombardment" might have been to keep users clicking out of curiosity.
However, over time, this is bound to provoke strong resentment.
However, there is much more room for maneuver when it comes to building a platform.
More importantly, Lin Lixin wanted the accelerated development of the Internet, not just to make a quick buck.
Only a complete, reliable, and easily replicable model can enable more people to quickly follow suit.
When some people make money through their new business model, it will inevitably encourage more people to flock in.
Once the ecosystem matures, the next step will be a story of soaring to new heights. "Ladies and gentlemen, imagine if a creator only needed to add one extra line of code to their website to directly access the Google services we've prepared for them."
Lin Lixin gestured with his hands, and a fragrant, sweet pancake quickly took shape.
"No additional configuration is required; the platform will charge you as long as there are valid IP addresses clicking."
"Does that mean... we'll act as intermediaries?"
Sam quickly understood what Lin Lixin was planning to do, and his eyes lit up.
This is way more profitable than being a gigolo!
Moreover, its promotion will be much faster than simply creating a GG (Google Play) app.
Creators don't need to rack their brains to find ways to get Google Ads to promote their content.
Google merchants don't need to go to great lengths to find a suitable website.
All you need to do is contact Gamenova.
GG merchants pay for exposure, and Gamenova will automatically distribute it to existing websites through its platform.
No complicated contracts are needed; just copy a simple line of code from them and add it to your website. "Wait, you're working with Activision on ' Papa's Pizzeria ' for...?"
"Of course, I need to test its effectiveness first. Don't you think web games might be very profitable?"
Lin Lixin laughed heartily, then stood up and went to the whiteboard.
"However, we are an internet company, so naturally we need to do some tricks that are different from those of traditional companies."
As he spoke, he wrote "[ad sense]" on the board.
"The more precise the targeting, the more valuable it is. And in the internet world, everything is under our control."
AdSense, which is the Google Aware system that Google originally developed.
Unlike traditional advertising, it has a very ingenious design.
Google proactively analyzes the website content of users, infers relevant content, and intelligently delivers Google services based on that content.
Gaming websites tend to advertise games like GG, food websites advertise food, and travel blogs advertise travel agencies...
This technology solves a core problem: the accuracy of delivery.
"Nobody wants to see a guy selling toilets in their food blog." Lin Lixin emphasized the word "sense" and patted it.
"I finished writing this part of the script while I was at Activision. Now all we need to do is test it and deploy it."
The development of Papa's Pizzeria and AdSense proceeded almost simultaneously.
As Papa's Pizzeria became a hit across the country, the banner GG also came into the view of users.
People suddenly realized that while playing Papa's Pizzeria, they would always see promotional material for other Papa John's's and Gamenova video games.
But when playing "Screeps," all I see are Dell and SGI, those computer salesmen.
Each of Gamenova's different websites has begun to show different GG (Goblin) tendencies.
Mid-August.
Robert Medical, Massachusetts.
"Finally, I can buy the guide line upgrade. Cutting it into eight pieces was so difficult." Yuli felt a headache coming on at the thought of even more customers the next day.
"Never mind, I've saved it anyway, let's have lunch first."
Just as she was about to close the browser, her gaze suddenly fell on the banner below.
" Papa John's's opened a branch in Massachusetts? Wow, I definitely have to try it."
She clicked on the link casually, and following the mouthwatering advertisements on the webpage, she found the phone number and email address of the nearest restaurant.
You can order food in either way; it's quite trendy.
She grabbed the keys from the table, deftly walked to the office, and pushed the door open.
"Honey, do you want to eat at Papa John's? I saw they opened one downtown."
"Your position at the company is Yuli."
Sean was working on his computer, sending out several forms via the intranet.
"Alright, busy Mr. CBO, if you're not going, then I'll go by myself."
"I never said I wasn't going." Sean saved the file with a "click," closed the Hermes laptop, and then looked up.
"Wait a minute, how did you know Papa John's's was opening a branch here?"
"Look, they posted GG on Papa's Pizzeria's website."
Yuli took the Microtac mobile phone and saved the number.
"Yeah, that makes sense."
He shrugged, casually flipped the computer back on, typed in the URL for " Papa's Pizzeria," and clicked on it.
"No wonder they make free games, wait..."
Sean's eyes narrowed, and he sat up straight, staring intently at the rotating list of guys, before opening his browser's developer mode.
Then, with some uncertainty, he visited several different websites under Gamenova, repeatedly bringing up the inspection interface to check.
He stopped what he was doing ten minutes later.
"Okay, Yuli, I've changed my mind. Could you bring one back for me? I have something to do."
"What's wrong?" Yuli asked, leaning closer to him and watching him fidget.
"GG, Gamenova has created a GG Platform, and I'm researching how to become a franchisee."
"Oh... that sounds important."
"Indeed, Yuli, it is true."
Sean read the information displayed on the novaads official website with focused attention, his surprise growing stronger with each passing moment.
This is an opportunity!
A golden opportunity!
Not only can they commercialize all of their company's web services at once, but they can also directly seek out official streaming from Gamenova.
If I understand correctly, once you pay a placement fee, Gamenova will automatically push your content to different websites.
You don't even need to do anything extra.
Sean wasn't sure how much coverage could be guaranteed.
But one thing is certain: this targeting model is much more precise than traditional Google channels.
The click-through rate... will definitely not be low.
Where is the boss?
"Dad went fishing."
"Please ask the old man to come back to the company tomorrow."
This situation is also playing out simultaneously in various places.
At the platform's inception, a number of manufacturers, including Motorola and Dell, were among the first to join the GG service.
Even if there is no suitable GG to play, the website will automatically leave it blank or play a public service GG.
As for creators joining, that's even simpler.
Simply send an email to the official website and add the specified script to the head tag of your website according to the reply.
After the platform checks it, the Google Ads service will be launched seamlessly. It's plug-and-play, and it won't even take a morning.
This convenient and easy-to-use method attracted a large number of website owners in just a few days.
Generating electricity with love is certainly a good thing.
But what if you could monetize your hobby?
That would be even better!
With a staggering CPM of nearly $20 per thousand clicks, website owners flocked to the site, fearing they might miss out on a day's earnings if they were too slow.
With so many websites joining the fray, Google's merchants couldn't sit still any longer.
The advertised prices are for exposure and cost per click.
All you need to do is tell Gamenova how much exposure you want, and then pay the fee.
They didn't need to worry about anything else.
Easy to copy, easy to use.
The entire GG perception system, without the Volkswagen public's awareness, has formed a massive undercurrent, silently and at an astonishing speed, taking over the internet market. And Nexus, the once money-devouring behemoth, has also rapidly gained a large amount of healthy cash flow in a short period of time.
Although it hasn't reached the point where it can fully cover expenses.
But its strength lies in its stability, and it is still expanding rapidly.
"Alright, now all you need to do is maintain stable operations and wait for the other manufacturers to die out on their own."
Lin Lixin took a sip of coffee, adopting a mysterious and inscrutable demeanor.
There are different strategies for the internet and traditional hardware.
Those who are still focused on hardware development will likely need to put in Kung-Fu Master to adapt to this entirely new market environment.
Those future internet giants are still nursing in their garages right now.
Neither Amazon, Google, nor eBay are even remotely visible yet.
Meanwhile, the core competitiveness of Yahoo!, the earliest internet giant, has been acquired by Gamenova.
In the short term, Gamenova doesn't even have any competitors.
"Wow! No wonder you've been quietly throwing money at the internet, you can do this?" Sam really didn't know what to say.
With his science and engineering mindset, it was indeed difficult for him to understand what had happened this week.
All he knew was that from this day forward, Nexus would become Gamenova's second-largest money-printing machine after Micron.
Given the current trend, it's not impossible for it to surpass Micron once internet penetration increases further.
No more worrying about the huge expenses incurred by Nexus's numerous charitable services.
Just how far could Lin's eyes see?
"This is just the first step, Sam."
Lin Lixin laughed heartily.
This is nothing!
The true cornerstone of the internet age has not yet been born.
GG services only solved the first step: commercialization and rapid expansion.
Search engines, e-commerce, streaming media, social networks, the digital economy, blockchain, AI... a brand new world has opened its Daimon to you.
But before that...
"Pack your things, Sam, it's time to go back to playing games."
