I’ve been sifting through articles about Adsense blogs, Adsense blogging, and making money using Google Adsense lately. One person who really catches my eye is Griz.

Besides the upcoming review I have of his sites, he has taught me the value of running the long con or slow con when trying to make money online.

In the world of Adsense blogs, few come as crafty and honest as Griz. So far, he has taught me some valuable techniques to help me with my SEO plans. A little over a week ago I bought my first domain and began my career as an Adsense Blogger. I had no idea what I was getting myself into, and sometimes I still don’t know. But I have a gut feeling that I am headed in the right direction for make a living off the internet.

If you have been watching the television series Lost, then you are familiar with the character of James Sawyer. The interesting thing about Sawyer is he is born con-man and understands the long con. If Sawyer decided to get in the internet game then he would be at the top with making money with Google Adsense.

That is how I would decide to call the business of trying to make money as an Adsense blogger. It is not a quick plan to make money, but a long term race for those who stay in it to see the payoff at the end. Some people fall for the short cons on the internet and end up getting frustrated with trying to make money online. They buy the courses, spend money on lessons, try to sell their clothes on E-Bay, and finally get frustrated and quit. Others actually try to become Adsense bloggers but end up giving in before any of their sites make any money. They use the wrong keywords, don’t understand the importance of backlinks, and fail to optimize their Adsense blog for keyword density.

So far in the last week, a few of my sites, including Adsense Blog for Beginners, have posted in the top five for long tail keywords. Sure these are not my desired Adsense keywords, but for only being a week out the box, it feels good to see your Adsense blog listing in Google already.

Being In the Adsense Blog Game For The Long Haul

Most people do not have the time to spend on building a dynasty of online real estate that will attract incomes that break the four-figure level. They don’t have time to do keyword research, write content, build links, or to do the research necessary to survive in the online money making industry. They settle for their full-time jobs, go back to playing World of Warcraft, or start surfing the internet again for free porn. They don’t understand what it takes to have a successful Adsense blog or don’t have the stamina to follow this through.

Look, if you follow Court’s crystal clear instruction and Griz’s honest advice, if you put forth the effort to build websites that are search engine optimized to draw Google to you, and then you are going to make money.

Pay the buck and sign up for The Keyword Academy. Buy yourself several domains, a hostserver, and start pounding away at that content while building your backlinks.

The key is all adds up. It keeps piling on top of itself, every day you get a little more accomplished, pretty soon you start submitting articles everywhere, pretty soon you’re trying to race Mark at the 100 hubs in thirty days challenge, pretty soon your Adsense blogs begin gathering traffic, and pretty soon money shows up in your Google Adsense account.

And life becomes happy again.

But you got to learn to run the long con first.

Build Your Adsense Blog Portfolio

In the last week I have purchased eight domains. By the beginning of June, I shall have ten. I hope for twenty by July and I don’t even have a job or any real income. What I do have is a PayPal account and several ways to make quick money online.

I call this my “petty cash” system. There are several techniques out there to make real daily money to help finance your sites while you wait to make money with Google Adsense. One, through the use of Project PayDay, you can make several hundred dollars over a few days, or even in a day if you want to take time away from building your Adsense blogs. Project Payday will introduce you to incentivized freebie websites where with very little cost you can buy in on a referral system where people pay you to help finish their referrals for Ipods and Playstation 3. You have seen these ads in your spam folder from time to time. Well, the truth is that they are real, but require a bunch of hoops to jump through.

Well, it seems like there are a lot of people willing to pay for your help with this endeavor. incentivized freebie websites are not a long term source for income for those who want to make real money, but you get paid immediately. You can then use that money to purchase new domains for your Adsense blogs.

Another source of income is to write for other websites. A lot of people who start to make money with Adsense blogging begin to outsource their articles, paying an average of 3 to 5 dollars an article. There are several websites that cater to this growing freelance market and I am currently reviewing which ones I find that are decent.

Discover Brand Recognition

Entrepreneurs like Tyler Cruz, Courtney Tuttle, and Grizzly did not start out as known experts in the field of making money online through Adsense blogs. These bloggers learned their craft, put out honest content, and gained a reputation for being great at understanding how to make money online. This didn’t happen overnight. It happened from giving a great product and generating a solid trust in the make money online community. This will not happen overnight.

Remember, your actions speak louder than words. While social networking will not get you your CPC clicks, it will get your popularity raised, or lowered by just how you deal with others in your community. So, you finally build an Adsense blog that ranks over four and others are asking you for help getting them some juice. They are also people who read your articles on Hub Pages and Squidoo and help drive your popularity up so you can attract real search engine clicks. So, how you treat others is important in the Adsense blog world.

The Long Tail, The Long Post, and The Long Con

When building your Adsense blog website, you only think in the short term. You write short articles, design short keywords, and expect money to come in the short run. Well, over at Griz’s websites, he talks in depth of the value of having rambling posts, about the value of long tail keywords, and the need to develop perfect backlinks. This is all necessary to run the long con when targeting keywords for your Adsense blog.

As Grizzly talks about on his pages about making money online with Google Adsense, you have to learn the best way to lead Google back to your pages and let them determine what your site is an authority on.

So What Is My Point?

My point is that this is my new area to post in that follows what I learned from Grizzly about running a long con on my Adsense Blog For Beginners website. The new blog post is going to be a place where I ramble about my experience developing Adsense blogs while at the same time trying to generate those key keyword searches.

So if you want to follow my musings, then this new category about Adsense blogging was made for you.

I can’t sleep at night.

My girlfriend keeps getting mad at me for getting up at 6 A.M. and sneaking off to the back house for hours.

But I can’t help it.

I’m hooked.

It’s now my fourth day and I own three domains relating to dogs. According to the Court’s Potential Formula, they should all net me around a hundred bucks a month when I get them ranked. Now, I just got to get them hosted.

Look, I’ve been using the internet for over ten years and I am sad to say that I have never owned a domain nor had a website hosted. I never knew the proper way to go about it and was a little lazy to learn. When HTML was in its early days, I did okay, but then those damn Cascading Style Sheets went over my head and I left websites to the rest of the world. So, when I ran into Court’s course I was a little hesitant about starting a website.

But, that is why I advise watching all the videos first and make sure you understand everything that you are going to have to do. I’m lucky right now. I don’t have a life and the state is taking care of my needs. I got all day to do this since I quit wasting my time playing World Of Warcraft. Now, besides designing website for making money with Google Adsense, I need to figure out how to sell my WOW account E-Bay. Anyone looking for a level 80 Death Knight with some epic gear?

The point I’m trying to make is that while I am very internet savvy, I have also been internet asleep, wasting my time, sometimes days, on the internet doing things that didn’t make me a lick of money.

I’ve done the gambling, the late night backdoor adult pass hacks, the massively multiplayer life sucking games, and now I’ve moved on to trying to make a buck online.

So, I went to HostGator, and spent the money to buy one of those unlimited packs for like eight bucks a month. Figure in the price of the three domains for two years each and I have already invested about seventy dollars into my plans to become a millionaire with Google Adsense blogging.

Well, you can’t make money unless you spend money.

At this point, gang, Hostgator is going to send you an email with your new host server numbers. When you get this email, you need to go back to the website where you bought your domains and change the name servers. All this is in Court’s tutorials.

The only thing I got to add is that when you buy another domain, and you will, make sure you go to your Cpanel page and add the subdomain before you change the name servers or you will end up like me.

I spent an hour talking to someone in India about how I can’t access my site because someone else is sitting there already.

My girlfriend started complaining about wanting some quality time together, wanting to eat, wanting to shower, and something about a baby that I don’t talk to anymore.

Doesn’t he understand? I’m trying to build his future.
