So, it’s my two week anniversary in this making money with Google Adsense game. So far I have made a dollar and thirty-five cents. I was excited when I saw the money show up in my Adsense account. I jumped up and down for joy, ran out in the street and shouted to the neighbors that I was on my way to making a million dollars. After that, I started checking my account every hour to see if the money was still rolling in. Now, it is four days later and I still only have a buck thirty-five for my Adsense blog.
What did I learn from this?
That this is a waiting game, that you have to keep building your Adsense blogs, keep building domains with the purpose of making money online, and just be patient. You got to learn to stop checking your statcounter, stop checking your Google Adsense, and just work on your long con.
In last week’s episode of Lie to Me, Dr. Lightman ran a long con on a serial rapist to get him to reveal his copy cat. That’s what I call this system of making money online. You have to be in it for the long run, you have to be willing the go the distance, and put in the leg work now. The great thing about building blogs for Adsense money is that once they are up and running, they are low maintenance. It is real easy to stack a portfolio of online real estate designed to make money online targeting Adsense and affiliate links. But it is not an overnight process. It can take months, years to make a decent income especially if you don’t have good keywords or the time to dedicate to building your websites.
Putting In the Leg Work
In the last two weeks, I have put in between ten to twenty hours a day either building or learning about Adsense blogs. The great thing is that all this work and knowledge is incremental; constantly building upon itself to create better websites designed for making money online.
One of the biggest improvements is in my keyword searches. At first, I sought out any profitable keyword that was going to have monthly CPC earnings of over fifty dollars. While these keywords are good to have, you must also think about what type of person is going to visit your page.
For example, an Adsense blog on kittens might pay you fifty bucks a month, but are the people searching for kittens really going to spend any real money on any ads targeting kittens. Sure, they might buy flea collars and kitty litter or they might just be cat lovers who like to search the internet for kitty information.
But let’s say you have developed an Adsense blog for plastic surgery. Well, the people who visit these sites are willing to spend real money on cosmetic enhancements. Also, they might have weight loss issues, might need herbal supplements, and there is a good chance they will click on your Google Adsense ads and your affiliates, which in turn will make you real money.
So when researching your keywords, think about what people are really spending money on, not just what people are searching for online. Build two or three Adsense blogs on similar subjects and provide anchor links and blogroll links between these sites to help boost their authority.
Your Adsense blog websites are like a good wine. You have to let them ripen and mature. The keys to a good site is to not only find a niche and place five articles, build some links and forget about it, but to build up these sites. Let’s say you own twenty sites designed to make money online targeting Google Adsense and have followed Court and Mark’s advice, have developed links through Griz’s niche support site, and you are making a grand a month.
Sounds really good.
So you go on building new Adsense blog sites while forgetting about your old ones. What is going to happen is that others are going to come along and knock you out of your keywords because you are not maintaining your sites.
Take this site, Adsense Blog For Beginners for instance. I know that there is some competition for this specific keyword search. It is not like there are any real legacy sites with information on making money online, but just a bunch of Adsense bloggers. Well, since the site went live, it now ranks number one and two for the keyword Adsense Blog For Beginners and is in the top fifty for Adsense blog and one of the reasons is that people became happy with just the write five article/build up some links mentality. You got to keep building up your sites adding more links, more content, gaining more authority.
You can’t just let your Adsense blog sites stew in their own juices, but let them marinate for the best taste.
Running The Long Con with Your Adsense blog Sites
You got to build up your anchor links on your Adsense blog and not just your blogroll. One way to do that is request a trade for textual anchors in another person’s blog site. Requesting links for blogs is not as hard as some think. It is good to find those in the same game of making money online to trade links then just regular blog sites. While some of the latter sites might have decent page ranking, the problem is you might have to send out a couple hundred emails just to get one or two links. Most of those who are trying to build up their Adsense blogs are friendly and considerate people especially Court. Out of the last twenty emails I sent to Adsense bloggers, almost all replied and more than half of them agreed to a link exchange.
Another way to build up links is to send some juice back to your other sites from your main Adsense blog site. If you build up your MMO site, then it is relatively easy to add anchor links in an article.
So, let’s say inside one of my posts I start talking about the difference between drug detox and drug rehab. Or I decide to discuss different companies who offer LSAT test prep. Maybe, I know some things about liposuction and feel like talking about these things in my blog.
I also can go into depth about dogs. I could talk about dog breeds that are the best for guard dog training. I could mention what are the best breeds to have as puppies, or even offer advice about dog training.
The point is that in those last couple of paragraphs I provided a little juice to my own Adsense blog sites. This is one way to help build that maturity and authority that is most vital in making money with Adsense.
Look, there is a lot of advice out there on making money online, but it really comes down to doing your homework, doing the leg work, and investing time to make sure your sites get ranked. It is not an overnight get rich plan, but instead a way to gain financial freedom from a steady income.
