Hurrah! For the first time I break my target of 1000 dollar in a month with Adsense! I reached $1,028.62 Well was lucky in January. But will be difficult to match this performance -for me it's one- next month: - google isn't fair on click pricing - and the fact if that February is shorter than Juanuary by two days Let's work harder then!
I've got a network of entertainment blogs (80 hosted on blogger) that accounts for 70% of my monthly revenue and a TV site -not a blog- that accounts for the remaining 30%. 80 blogs may seem a lot at first: but actually it is not. I'm competing on niches and having one site per topic allow "to overperform" in Google serps despite my sites being modest. My blogs have only 10 pages max, 4 in average (but they are meaningful, not made for adsense spam pages) so they are easy to set up. I read alot on digitalpoint and what i won't forget is that your url name does influence your ranking in google: so i just use my keywords to make my urls. Besides for each page/post i make i systematically list them in 10 selected social bookmarking sites. And because i have more than 80 sites now, i do have some -limited in general but real in my niches- influence on serps by my own: with my network I can give a serp boost to the new pages i may make. As a result I don't make use of advertising yet. Still a lot of work to do though before i reach 1500 dollars (my next target is indeed 1000 euros, around 1500 dollars as of today). My strategy has a big weakness though: i rely entirely on Adsense, but there isn't any real alternative so far for me. Damned, every night i pray to find a real competiter to Adsense!

good going ... you cud also promote some affiliates in ur niche to diversify from sole adsense revenue .... also kontera works good .... cpc is low however ctr is high!!!
80 blogs to reach 1,000$ monthly ???? Isn't it too much ??????????? Anyone get same profits with less websites ?
I've been following the same kind of strategy but I don't use blogger and have much lower sites and so lower traffics. My eCPM is much higher than yours though so if I perseverate I could reach the same results, thanks for being a model to follow .
80 bogs indeed but only 4 posts per blog in average (almost no update to do once a blog hasz reached its average of 4 posts). It's the same entertainment niche. My blogs are interconnected, whith links between them (it's a network). Actually i consider my network of blogs like one big site. So the number 80 is not that meaningful. What's meaningful is the network i created and the content of my posts. Well some time ago i wanted to use adwords. Google was charging more than 1 dollar per click for the keywords related to my site. But my earnings per click (when people click on the ads displayed on my site) are quite low compared to what i may expect knowing adwords. --> google is hungry and does not want to share a fair value! Besides you may have noticed: with time cpm decreases even if ctr and impressions are constant --> google does not value its old "partners": that's unfair! so I will keep saying that google is not fair on click pricing. Something I forgot to tell: I'm not American, but my sites do quite well with visitors from the USA (70% of my traffic), it's because they are indeed my main target: clicks are more valuable from US visitors than from let's say Chinese visitors.
