A question I get asked frequently is “How can you monetize with Google Adsense ads in a Facebook application?”
Anyone who has tried will find it is not as easy as it sounds. This is because Facebook plays about with Javascript code as it serves your pages up. This is a security thing on their part, but it also means that a lot of standard Javascript does not function as you’d expect.
But there is a fairly easy work-around…
I spent almost five years living in the USA before returning to the UK. While I was there I came across a guy by the name of Steve Humprey. He is a programmer but he has this uncanny ability to be able to explain how to write and change code so that anyone can understand it.
If you are building monetized sites or you want to do your own Facebook apps then learning PHP is a very sensible step.
But it looks so complicated doesn’t it?
It doesn’t have to be. This is not B.S. and I highly recommend it…
Learn to use PHP in two hours.
