Hi, Finally i got 10000 uniques today thanks to Digg . One of my articles got published on digg yesterday and suddenly the site is flooded with visitors. But the sad thing is that the total adsense revenue after 100 clicks is just $5 Can anyone tell me how do i take advantage of this flooding visitors. ITs been digged 427 times in last 10 hours. Digg Link : Webpage link : http://www.nonstopmasti.be/?p=76
Update: Total no of visitors till now are stunningly 20,250 On top position on Digg, Del.icio.us Hope this contiues forever...
It's nice traffic but the consensus is that Digg people don't click on ads. Hopefully you can turn some of them into return visitors though.
You're getting relevant links for this article (blog trackbacks matter). It will get you better Google ranking. Think in the long term.
you should re-arrange ads in your website, put some link units in the menu, and try to make it to look like the menu, the left and right sided ads have no effect, you better put adsense ads in the middle or in the bottom of the content area, for more advices ask about adsense optimization in the right forum.
You may find that revenue does increase slightly as some of those visitors will convert to regular visitors. The above advice is right though, social bookmarking traffic doesn't tend to be very good at clicking unless it's shoved right in their face. Perhaps it's worth getting some CPM or CPA offers ready for the next time you get Dugg
Changing your ad placement should help a lot. In my past experience, Digg users DO click on ads. Maybe just a tad lower CTR vs regular/SE visitors. Keep it up.
Yes, maybe add ads in or or on the right side of content. I think visitors (or is it just me) are interested just in this article and not in others.
Actually , i created this blog for fun purpose only and right now seeing the response of the blog i Think i shall continue posting wonderfull articles. I know not every article of mine will be digged or bookmarked but the blog shall be satisfing the visitors expectations. Latest stats: 28000 unique visitors Hope i get repeat visitors also
That is something that I would definately not do. It is good to blend the ads in so that they don't look like ads, but making them look part of your sites main menu / navigation system is a little wrong I think. Although, I find alot of sites do it and it can be very misleading to the visitor.
it doesnt Seem so. i think people are just reading the post and leaving. and also the rates are drastically low for per click basis.
So it's true that visitors from dig't click. Well even few clicks and returning visitors are better then nothing.
