Once I picked my jaw up off the ground after seeing the $100,000+ check from Google, I started to look for related information to see what happens when people generate such large sums of ad revenue.

The first thing I came across was the Google Premium Publisher program. Apparently, if you have 20 million page views or 5 million searches per month, then you likely qualify for this premium program. If you do, you'll enjoy some special privileges including being able to negotiate your revenue share percentage in exchange for promising Google a certain amount of site coverage.

You'll also get things like (this list blatantly copied from JenSense):

  • Google sales representative and account manager
  • Flexible ad formats
  • Advanced filtering
  • Optimization assistance
  • Additional monetization options
  • Enhanced technical support

Sadly, the only way I think I'll ever get to this level is if I happen to work for a major content site. Anyone hiring?

    Piotr,

    Google will contact you when they think you're good enough to join the program. You can't join just because you want to.
