    Hi,

    I had nice online business but sold it few years back. Decided to get back at the end of last year, took me 8 months to get to $47/day. Wondering how much time I will need for $100/day which is my goal?

    If you add some good affiliate programs or products to your site you can get thier alot faster.

    Yes, I do have aff program, and it brings me some money, but I'm talking about AdSense, I want $100/day from AdSense alone :)

    Great site, good traffic, good placement, think your well on your way.

    Maybe though try to mix in a vert. link unit with your navigation, see how it works for a week?

    hehe, same here. Been using adsense for more than a year never did get to the 100 mark. Nowadays I use another program which is kind of good. Not saying its better than adsense but I get to feel my rewards every now and than :)

    With the rate of growth you're seeing, I'd say very little time at all. If you ever decide to sell this site and get out of the business again, I suggest you write up an ebook with your methods and sell it before you leave. A lot of people would pay to know how to get that kind of growth.

    Well, no special methods, all 'white hat' and a lot of work :) It helped that I already knew a lot about SEO and I can do pages by myself, I'm programmer too :)

    14 months and $2/day? Is the traffic real low or something?

    Try to make more sites. I have a site which is about 6 years old, sitting there, once I worked about it, but site never bring anything, maybe few $/month. So, try with some other niche/site.

    As I said, really no secrets. I worked a lot, tried many things, I changed layout of my few main sites maybe 5-6 times, measuring many things. Recent changes of adsense placement and colors on one site boost that site earnings by 100%. I did this:
    left menu moved to top, and placed adsense scyscraper in the left side (dark blue background with white text, yellow title). However, it may not work for your site, but you should try many things. Little tweaking can be worth a lot of $$$

    BTW I just can't believe, buit so far today it's $87.26, maybe I will pass $100 today!

    BBTW Site from my signature is my site, but not main one as someone here thought.

    to reach 100 a day would require you some help? take my tips

    - Social BookMarks < when you need some fast traffic ( stumble lasts for like 5 days )
    - Better Pagerank and Index < Google gives good strong long traffic
    - Advertise but in style, buy a tshirt with your domain name on it and go to the mall and stuff -> I had a gaming shirt that had cost me like $10 but everytime i where it i get atleast 50+ Uniques if its just me, but if you get your friends to help i can get around 1000+ Uniques in 1 day :p

    I have more tips pm me if you want info

    Btw I had a stumble forum with atleast 100 active users and I was getting crazy traffic :p
