    Congrats! $100 a day is a nice base to work from. The next goal should be to maintain that, then step it up (simultaneously).

    The one thing about hitting a goal is then I worry if the next day will be a low money day.

    Thanks for all the congratulations. =]
    All in all ended up with 119.98 yesterday :)

    as far as the secrets are concerned, I am not going to tell you anything new:
    -traffic
    -experimenting with colors etc
    -#0099FF & #00FFFF url color on Black background to be the best combo, and am pretty much using that for all my new sites now
    -less is more sometime; using fewer adblocks per page seemed to bump up the value of ads for that one block left on the page
    -attracting NEW visitors, those seem to click the most on ads, that is via SEO, one my sites received 20k, 30K, 45K visitors in the first 3 months from SE alone.
    -keep experimenting with placement.. i was stuck at 50-80 a day for a while, and then kept playing around with ads until I found ultimate placement for them, and voila =]
    -keep producing fresh content to keep up and beat out competitors

    I am also feel leaving out about $50/day, that is because I do not want to force feed my users too many ads,
    -I could easily make $30-$50 if I was to use pop-ups, pop-unders on my site, but I hate them with passion myself and wouldnt do it to my visitos
    -I am taking it very easy with ads one of my main sites just to make it more user friendly, if I was to apply same techniques as on others that would bump me up another $20-$30/day.. but thats just me caring about the visitors


    Hope this helps

    Best of luck everybody =]

    $100/day on 50-60k! That's impressive! One of my sites is constantly hitting 100k/day and it's only eeking out a measly $50/day. Damn you, popular but poorly converting site!!! Thank God for CPM banners. :)

    Yesss.. one of my inspirations jackburton has seen my post :), I am trying to be like you and make 5k+ monthly.

    I was getting 50-60K and only making $60-$80. Now on most my pages I have only one ad block as that way it seems to generate more revenue as if there were several blocks, and maybe also an occasional link unit here and there. It's better for visitors (not that many ads) and for me (higher pay).

    Also with testing some color scemes and placement got CTR up to ~3% from ~2.

    I would love to put some cpm banners on my sites as that could probably make me another couple K per month, but fastclick and casale won't approve me for some reason :(

    You've got mail. Should help you out. They send $25/day in my direction for the 100k site I mentioned.

    Hey JackB, can you send some love this way? Or does traffic need to be at those levels?

    Thank you all for the congratulations :) and thanks Jack for the PM.

    I did not start out with 20 sites, I started out with 1 then 3 then 20. If you just make 20 sites it will take a while for all of them to grow to the level you would like them to. I really put in work on my first site and once I did that branching off was no problem since the new sites were receiving high quality links and traffic from my main site. Now with 20 sites, when I get 21st one it will immediately have 20 HQ links and what not.. so the more you have the faster you grow :), the first site was definetely a pain.

    As far as updating the sites I have coded up a hefty little PHP thing that allows me easily manage all the sites, some of the sites are semi/fully automatic so I do not have to worry about those.

    best regards

    hope this helps :)
