In each of the 10 weeks leading up to AdSense's 10th anniversary on June 18th, we'll be sharing a new publisher success story. Read on to meet this week's featured publisher, and feel free to submit your own success story to our team.
While managing a number of technology-related websites, Matthias Sandner and two colleagues decided to create a new site to address one of their shared passions: soccer. They brought this vision to life in 2011 with the launch of German site Sportonline.de, which they now run with a small team of employees. Matthias had been an AdSense publisher since 2007, so implementing AdSense on Sportonline.de was one of the first things he did on the site.

AdSense currently generates between 50 and 60 percent of Sportonline.de's total advertising revenue, and has helped financially support the new site. Matthias has found that the 728 x 90 Leaderboard with both text and image ads enabled performs the best on his site. Since Sportonline.de is still new and growing, the team mainly invests the AdSense earnings into new content and employees. "Not only does AdSense offer a convincing performance," says Matthias, "but it's also clear and easy to use." As a result, the team can focus on developing the website rather than devoting time to selling ads.
Matthias has been happy about the performance of AdSense, and is currently working to continue growing the user base and revenue from the site. He makes uses of other Google products like Analytics, which provides insights to help the team continue improving the site. In addition, Sportonline.de has already developed a large following on Google+, where the team shares content and interacts with over 35,000 fans.
For more on Sportonline.de's start-up success, read the full story. Join us here again next Tuesday for another inspirational publisher story, and feel free to share your comments on our AdSense +page.
