Top 5 Secrets to Making Money with Adsense
Did someone tell you you can make money easily with Google
Adsense? Did they tell you that to put up a site and people will
click on the ads and you can make hundreds of dollars per day?
Maybe that's true, for them, because they have a system to make
this happen. They may have omitted how to make and Adsense site
successful. In this article I will highlight the most important
points to make your site successful.
5. Position your ads so that they look as if they are part of
the content.
Position your ads so that the ads are in the visitor's field of
vision. Although, you might think that putting the ads in the
right and left columns keep your site clean, the clickthrough is
not as effective as putting them in between the content. Look at
your newspapers classifieds. Notice how many of the ads are
surrounded by the actual articles? Same concepts apply here. At
the very least do some of both.
4. Don't make the ads look like Ads!
People get turned off by ads with borders. We are
psychologically trained to think that anything surrounded with a
border is probably an ad. Look at all the print media and all
over the web, and you'll notice that most ads have borders that
alert visitors that they are ads. This is NOT what You want to
do!
Go in your Google Adsense Layout tool and change the border
colors and backgrounds to match your website colors. This will
make them look like they are part of your site not ads. I cannot
emphasize this enough.
Removing borders will increase your clickthrough rate
immediately!
3. Add a Google Search Box on your website.
Such a simple thing but often overlooked. Did you know that if
your site visitors use your Google Search box you get credited
with a click? People surf the web for one primary reason -- to
find information. Your website provides information. However, it
is rare that we find what we want on one website. And, if we
want more info we tend to want to search for more. How
convenient to have a Google Search box at the end of your
article!
2. Provide good content.
You may be tempted to put little content on your site. After all
you want people to click on the ads not stay on your site. This
may have some truth in it, but think of it the other way. Having
valueable content on your site means that your visitors are more
likely to bookmark your site, and the search engines will like
your site better.
1. And the NUMBER ONE secret to Making Money with
Adsense....
Put up as many sites as possible! Yes, this is what is never
told to you. Why invest all your energy trying to get traffic to
one site? What if the topic you chose is not a very popular one
or has so much competetion that you get little traffic? A well
known strategy is to put up as many sites as possible and then
monitor the results to see which ones work and which ones don't.
With the ones that do, put in extra effort to get more traffic
to those sites.
To do this without buying a domain name for each one, get an
account at a web host that allows unlimited subdomains. When you
register a name get something general for each theme. Then use
subdomains to make all the related sites.
Finally, if designing web sites is not your strong point, you
can get pre-built sites and/or templates which are already layed
out with the techniques I described. That will get you up and
running pretty quick. Take a look at
