10 URLs That Every Google User Should Know

Where can you get a list of every ad that you have clicked on Google? Where should you go if you don’t remember your administrator password? What are your interests as determined by Google?

Here are 10 important links that every Google user should know about. They are tucked away, somewhere deep inside your Google dashboard.

1. Create a new Google Account using your existing email address. The regular sign-up process uses your @gmail.com address as your Google account username but with this special URL, you can use any other email address as your username.

https://accounts.google.com/SignUpWithoutGmail

2. Google creates a profile of yourself based on the sites you visit, your Google+ account and other signals. They try to guess your age, gender and interests and then use this data to serve you more relevant ads. Use this URL to know how Google sees you on the web.

https://www.google.com/ads/preferences/

3. Google lets you export all your data out of the Google ecosystem. You can download your photos, contacts, Gmail messages and even your YouTube videos. Head over the the Takeout page to grab the download links.

https://www.google.com/takeout

4. If you ever find your content appearing on another website that is using one or more Google products – say Blogger, AdSense, Google+ or YouTube - you can raise a DMCA complaint with Google against that site to get that content removed. This wizard can also be used to remove websites from Google search results that are scraping your content.

https://support.google.com/legal

5. Your Android device may be reporting your recent location data and velocity (are you moving and if yes, how fast are you moving) back to Google servers. Head over to the Google Maps website to see your entire location history and you also have the option to export this data as KML files that can be viewed inside Google Earth or even Google Drive.

https://maps.google.com/locationhistory

6. Google records every search term that you’ve ever typed into their search boxes. They even keep a log of every ad that you have clicked on various Google websites.

https://history.google.com

7. You need to login to your Gmail account at least once every 9 months else Google may terminate your account according to their program policies.This can be an issue if you have multiple Gmail accounts so as a workaround, you can setup your main Gmail account as the trusted content for your secondary accounts. Thus Google will keep sending you reminders every few months to login to your other accounts. Not available for Google Apps.

https://www.google.com/settings/account/inactive

8. Worried that someone else is using your Google account. Go to the activity report to see a log of every device that has recently been used to log into your Google account. You also get to know the I.P. Address and their approximate geographic location. Unfortunately, you can’t remotely log out of a Google session.

https://security.google.com/settings/security/activity

9. This is a complete list of web apps, browser extensions, Google Scripts and mobile apps that have any read or write access to your Google data. If the permission level says “access to basic account info”, it basically means that you have used your Google account to sign-in to that app.

https://security.google.com/settings/security/permissions

10. This is important URL for Google Apps users. If your Google Account ever gets hacked, use this secret link to reset your admin password. You’ll be asked to verify your domain name by creating a CNAME record in your DNS.

https://admin.google.com/domain.com/VerifyAdminAccountPasswordReset

[*] Replace domain.com in the above URL with your own web domain name.

How to filter Google image searches by usage rights

Filter which images you can freely use for commercial or non-commercial purposes right on your search results page.

Looking for an image online that you can legally and safely use on your own Web site? Google now makes it easier to find one.

A new Usage Rights filter is now easily accessible on your search results page, as tweeted by Google software engineer Matt Cutts. Here's how you can tap into it:

Run your search at the Google Images page, or just use Google's default search page and then filter the results by image.
Click on the Search tools menu and then select the dropdown menu for Usage Rights. That menu offers five choices: Not filtered by license, Labeled for reuse, Labeled for commercial reuse, Labeled for reuse with modification, and Labeled for commercial reuse with modification. Select the option you wish to use, and the page refreshes to include only those images.

The images are typically ones licensed by Creative Commons or GNU Free Documentation, or are items in the public domain. The "labeled for reuse" option allows you to use the image for non-commercial purposes as specified in the license. The "labeled for commercial reuse" lets you use the image commercially. The "reuse with modification" option grants you the ability to alter the image.

A Google help page describes the various licensing and usage options.

Google has offered usage rights filtering for images since 2009. But until now, you had to access the Advanced Image Search page to filter your results. The new feature also helps Google catch up with Bing, which has its own image licensing filter directly accessible from your search results.

Best alternatives to Google Adsense

Well, yeah. I see so many bloggers and web designers not being able to monetize their blog or websites, just because they think Google Adsense is the only way by which they can do it. No, it’s not. We have a good list of companies that shall let you earn from your blog or website. We’ll be discussing the best among the lot here -

1. Infolinks

I’ll rank it best in the lot of “Best alternatives to Google Adsense” as far as text advertisements are concerned. It provides users with PayPerClick (PPC) advertising system. I’ve used it personally, and I really feel that instead of waiting for your Google Adsense account to be approved, you should definitely try it out.

Visit Website
Minimum Payout – $50 via PayPal

2. Chitika

Well, the environment is pretty much similar to Google Adsense. Though it might not have a great revenue, but it definitely lies among the top companies who help users monetize their blogs or websites.

Visit Website
Minimum Payout – $10 via PayPal, $50 via Cheque

3. BuySellAds

You’ll definitely face a tough time getting a BuySellAds’ account. Once you’ve got hold of it, the journey will be a great one. It provides a store where the users can sell or buy ads.

Visit Website
Minimum Payout – $50 via PayPal

4. Clicksor

I might not recommend it to a user who has recently launched a blog or his website. Clicksor is annoying, seriously it is. It shall return with a huge amount of pop-ups and in-text advertisements. The users might not like it and you might lose traffic. The only plus point is, they approve your account in a single click. You’ll not have to wait for long to monetize your blog or website if you use Clicksor.

Visit Website
Minimum Payout – $50 via PayPal

5. Tribal Fusion

Again, the problem lies in getting your account approved. The users having huge amount of traffic and still not got their Adsense account approved, should definitely give this a try. And if you really have a good traffic, you can earn a lot from it. .

Visit Website
Minimum Payout – $50 via cheque

Host your website on Google Drive

Google Drive, as we all now was just a Virtual Hard Disk, but sometime back Google announced that they’ll allow web developers to upload their entire website on Google Drive. The users will be allowed to upload HTML files, Cascading Style Sheets and JavaScript.

After few simple tweaks, you can publish your website. Here are the steps:

Login to your Google Drive account.
Create a folder in it and share it as “Public on the Web”.
Upload your HTML, CSS & JavaScript files into this folder.
Now, open up the main HTML file & click on the ‘preview’ button on the top.
Now you can share URL. Example:https://googledrive.com/host/0BySXIRPyzza1UmowN0xGYTBZOTA/DzireZOne.html

Advantages:

Works like a perfect directory structure.
A good way for developers to make their website available to public.
Free of cost.

Disadvantages:

The long URL may not be liked by everyone.
There is no direct way of creating an HTML file on Google Docs.

Google Sheets adds offline spreadsheet editing for Chrome users

Google fans no longer need the Internet to count their inventory or tabulate a budget. The company recently rolled out a new update to Google Sheets, the spreadsheet web app in Google Drive, that finally—finally—includes offline editing support in Chrome. The new feature will be a welcome addition to Chrome OS users and other Chrome fans who keep all their data in Google's cloud.

Offline editing is already available for Docs and Slides, making Sheets the last of the three major Google Drive apps to get the feature. But the new Sheets offline implementation isn't perfect.

Google says offline editing will only work with spreadsheets created after you switched over to the new version of Sheets. Anyone who needs offline access may have to do a little copying and pasting into a new document to edit their older spreadsheets when an Internet connection isn't present.

But wait, there's more!

Offline support was just one of several changes to Sheets that Google introduced. Sheets now supports millions of cells on a single sheet and Google dumped the limitations on how many columns and formulas you can use. Limits on the number of cells you can copy and paste are also gone.

The company added a new feature called filter views that lets you change the layout of a spreadsheet without affecting it for other users—a handy feature if, for example, you need to filter a column in descending numerical order, but everyone else needs to see it in ascending order. You can also save and share your personalized filter views with others.

Google is also simplifying the help links you see as you type formula commands, and the new Sheets also has error highlighting to help you spot and fix your formula mistakes as you go.

Finally, Sheets now pushes overflowing text into adjacent cells instead of creating a new line in the current cell.

My account was switched over to the new version of Sheets automatically, but if you don't see the new features, you can make the switch manually by visiting g.co/newsheets. Offline access to Google Drive requires a simple one-time set-up process and is available only in the Chrome browser. Check out this Google help page for instructions.

Google Play Music now available for iOS

Apple and Google are arch nemesis but it seems like Google is rather helping with the development of iOS and thereby Apple. Google is developing more apps for Apple and instead of saying developing, they are porting their apps to the rival platform. Google is not developing for Windows Phone alone. Its like all the companies are helping each other but leaving Windows Phone behind.

Google even released its Google Maps service to the iDevices. It even replaced the native Apple Maps for a period of time. The turn by turn navigation, Accurate location finder, etc. compared to Apple maps which couldn’t accurately pin point your location. People were very angry when it lead to some other place when you asked for a place in the entirely different direction. The researchers over at Apple have responded to this issue by giving an update which is set to correct the discrepancy caused by the first release. The interface is looking like its Android counterpart and is sure not to disappoint.

Google Play Music

Google seems to have been testing this for over a month and it has released its latest update to the Apple Platform with a one month free service to All access- Google’s own streaming service. The application is available for download in the App store.

Google Knows the Wi-Fi Passwords of All Android Users

A new privacy fuss is kicking off around Google's Android mobile OS, with security boffins claiming that the software's backup tools mean that a copy of everyone's Wi-Fi password history is now saved to Google's servers. Which may mean it could be legally compelled to hand them out, should a government come calling.

The key issue is that Google's not only storing passwords, but it's doing so in a manner that means it can read them if it wants to, as illustrated by the way new Android devices can pull in all your old passwords and settings from its servers once you provide your phone with a Gmail address and password.

Which makes it easier for us to juggle two phones and three tablets, but might just mean our networks aren't as safe from spying eyes, or illegal use, as we thought.
