Thanks for the post. I'm on track to get my first check in like 9 months so this is always nice to hear that some people can do it.
Nice words however i think that you must new joines some points of wisdom so that they can atleast earn 30$ a month or in other words atleast a $ a day. What do you think , if you are earning and small support would gonna help some starters. Even this is like a payback- as u said u r old reader of Digital Point forum and may have learn many things from here. So we all are waiting..
To get to 1$ a day as always will depend on your niche. I really dont think it is quantifiable, in when and how will it happen. It is like the sharemarket someday the share price is 10c tomorrow its 1$. I personally believe it should be an average. It may not happen straight away but give it time. Here some things that may help. 1. Get more traffic than last month, if that is achieved Im happy, more potential customers. Make sure the traffic are coming from quality traffic. 97% of traffic that I receive is from search engine. I make sure that my content and site complies with search engines rules and how they like to read content. - Fast Hosting - I believe hosting is important, as you know bots have lots of things to read, and any delay will obviously will lessen chances for the bots to parse and read your site. - Read the search engine guidelines, ie use robot.txt and sitemaps. I think Yahoo now is doing verifications as well. - Get a domain name - I believe branding is important. Let people become familiar with who you are. Like DP...lots of webmasters know DP. 10$ for me is not alot of money, as it is business you need to spend money to make money. There are people who make money on free hosting for sure, but I like to be in control of everything, which includes telling where my site is hosted etc. Do whatever works for you. I am currently trialling free hosting for certain niche and will move to hosting if they are popular (allows me to prototype and developer faster my ideas but I still use a domain). 2. Evaluate popular content. You may have niche within a niche! Create a site with the niche within a niche and leverage from your main site. 3. Dont be afraid of competition. If you really think you can make a better site than do it. 4. Look at the competition. Do what they do, follow there moves, and also try to stay ahead. ie they have something new why dont you add it into your site as well. Why risk it right? Dont be blind. You need research what the opposition is doing! 5. Quality content! Write things that your readers will be interested. 6. Dont worry about fluctuation of daily income. 7. Be aware where your traffic is coming as well. Some days it might be a holiday season, I been on thanks giving in US, and I have never driven for 10 hours straight bumper to bumper! So everyone is on the road and not on there computer. Again dont worry about daily fluctuations. I know it is hard but need to continue and as I said persevere. 8. Remember this is a business. Not something that is predictable on what customers do. Seriously if you want to make consistent money, take a pay check...it will remain the same for 12months and if you lucky it will increase. The risk you take here is whether you doing it full time, part time, hobby you may or you may not make money. If you can understand that then you half way there I believe. But the most important maybe one day you have the opportunity to make whatever you heart desire, cause like experience usually means more knowledge = money. Some of the statements are just thoughts but I think sometimes a good reality check is good for people. I am sure there are so many people better than I am, but I believe I am successful as well, because my goals are consistent and the effort I put in.
If more people would just follow this simple advice then people would make a lot more money from Adsense and their sites in general. Well said
like the way you told people and the things are gonna be really good to these things!!! seems to be the business Study Chapter in 12th standard, however this make lots of sense. and also helps to work hard...
I'll agree with you 100% unfortunately i learned that the hard way after i stopped working on it for about month, it was very hard to get back into it
