How To Make Money With Adsense

March 31st, 2008

An easy way to make money online is to use the Google AdSense program. You can make money by including simple text ads in your site’s content. When visitors click those ads, you share some of the money Google makes from the advertisers. It’s incredibly easy.

Implementing AdSense is trivial, it’s literally cut-and-paste. Nor do you worry about choosing the ads you want displayed, Google does that automatically by reading the content of the page and selecting appropriate ads. It’s so easy to get started with AdSense.

No, what’s hard with AdSense is the same problem that all website-based content monetization schemes face: content and traffic. You can’t make money with AdSense without both. No content, no visitors — and no visitors, no clicks! It’s not hard to understand at all.

You need more than one site, though. The most successful AdSense publishers build networks of content sites. These “AdSense networks” multiply their earning power. After all, even 100 sites earning only $2/day each makes $6000 a month in earnings, which to some people is a full-time salary.

No one says building all those sites is easy, or that it happens overnight. You definitely need a lot of content — whether you write it yourself or purchase it from someone else. You need flat-rate web hosting and a large selection of domain names. You’ll also want a tool or two to help create and manage the sites.

Creating your AdSense network doesn’t take as much work as think it does if you follow a few simple tricks. The first is to minimize content: start out with small sites and see what works and what doesn’t. Then do everything you can to get visitors to come back, usually by getting them to sign up for a mailing list. Don’t forget to use affiliate links embedded in your content for extra income. And make sure all the pages link to each other and follow basic search engine optimization rules.

In the end, what you really need is a proper business plan for your AdSense content network. Start small, and attack a variety of niches. Use the tricks mentioned above. Then build on what you have. Do the legwork and in a few months you’ll have a very profitable AdSense business.
