| How Do You Really Make Money With Adsense |
The funny thing about making real money with Adsense is that it largely doesnt involve Adsense. The optimization strategies that the forums and hundreds of articles and blogs constantly repeat are not even half of the story of receiving a sizeable monthly cheque from Google.
The fundamental rule of Adsense is traffic. Without traffic, no Adsense clicks, regardless of how precisely youve picked your placements or how much time youve spent perfectly blending the ads into the structure of your content so that they now appear as additional links and not advertisements.
The large majority of Adsense Publishers forget this very important fact and focus on trying to improve their click through rate. Finding your optimum click through rate can only come after youve got a steady and respectable flow of traffic. If you obsess about optimization before youve fleshed out your site and expanded its reach into the search engines you will never actually develop your website and even if you get your CTR up to something quite formidable you will only be making a fraction of what you would be if youd focused on your sites expansion.
So what should you do? If the fundamental rule of Adsense is traffic, the fundamental rule of traffic is that you cant get a repeat visitor until theyve been a first time visitor, and a first time visitor can only come to your website through a certain number of channels.
Putting advertising aside as unless youre playing the arbitrage game you wont convert on the margins, you are left with two serious options - the search engine results and incoming links from other websites. The latter supports the former so I always concentrate on getting as many pages under as many keywords into the search engines as are related to the particular website Im working on. This is Search Engine Optimization territory.
With SEO you are trying to force the search engines to recognize your website and individual pages within it as relevant to particular keywords. What youre trying to say is that my website is more relevant, and so more valuable, to that keyword search than the first ten that are already there. The more times you can convince the search engines of this the more traffic youre website will receive. The more traffic youre website receives the more clicks it will generate on Adsense and the more money you will make.
Focus on working out what keywords are related to your particular niche, build content of value that answers the question of each keyword phrase and then get supporting links to back up your relevancy. If you do this for your website you will significantly increase your traffic. Once your traffic is organic and automated turn to optimizing your Adsense ads through testing different placements, colors, formats etc. Once youve done that, this website can be left pretty much on auto-pilot and you can turn your attention to the next project where you will be very easily able to replicate what youve just done. Now youre into Adsense Empire Building territory and this is where the real money lies.
