Hey all, I have got to 30$/day average in 5 months... I only get about low thousands ad impressions per day yet make 30$ a day. Is that a good start and how fast were you guys able to make it to 100$/day average. thanks in advance.
I would love to share that information but I dont want a ton of people competing there. A hint I guess would be that it is very specialized, hard to find information - not recycled stuff thats normally on the net. I guess even if I told people it wouldnt be easy to replicate anyways. I only work on that site part time. I have another 10 sites but most of them dont make that much, some make pennies a day or nothing. I guess what I am saying is it seems very high traffic keywords take years, whereas find a niche and make money quicker.... hope that helps you.
Whatever you did to get to $30 in the first place, inmplement it again x3. No point putting all your eggs in one basket, having a handful of sites making you $100/day is better than one..... Once you're at that point then look at tweaking things on all sites & increasing the overall income.
Me too. I wish I could. Been writing my own travel articles for ages now. But the income still abysmall. How to get $30/day? Care to share? LOL
$30 net or gross? It's a little hard to give advice when we don't know your site. But if your site involves member registration, then I would start advertising if you aren't already. You could to adwords, but I myself prefer buying adspace on other sites. I feel like I can get exactly the targetted audience I want that way. Look around at sites that would have an audience you would want and try to buy advertising there.
30$ a day on average in a 5 months period is very good, I'm not at 100$ a day but the way to go would be have several sites talking about the same subject of sub-subjects and link them together. If your site is somethingstation.com then go to your USER CP to hide your email address from others as it gives out your site
I get less than $1 per day, for two directories, I guess thats reasonable since there isnt content or anything, but I added content on additional pages.
as i mentioned i have at least 10 sites... some still make pennies... i changed it to one making nothing though thanks for the tip. lol thanks for the comments guys... i will make a few related sites around the one making all the cash.
I think one of the biggest "secrets" is creating sites where users keep returning again and again, and tell their friends. This is not easy, and takes a smart idea and/or hard work.
moleculeman, care to share how you drive traffic to your most profitable site? Is the traffic mostly from Google, Yahoo or MSN? Any link-building strategies that worked well for you? Thanks and congrats!
$30/day in 5 months is very good, why not aim for $90 in the next 5 months? That would be a nice average to get.
If your website is about finances, health, legal, and now gaming, I may be able to boost your traffic through the roof. However, this has a catch to it. PM me if you are interested (that is if your websites fall under the listed categories above).
thanks for all the kind words. good question and one that I am having trouble increasing for now. 1) most of my traffic is from google weird but little traffic from MSN or Yahoo a few people a day from links such as websites i emailed to put me up directories i get nothing from (1-2 people a week) The only point to email and to get directory links is to increasing ranking in google. I think its going to take much longer to go to 100$. I can wait I guess. If you guys have any ideas to increase traffic (besides writting more content and paying google with adwords) I would like to know some ideas. I am not willing to try advertising yet. Its been bumpy ride the past few weeks as I depend so much on Google sadly and their indexing of my site and others is going up and down... I need to depend as little on Search Engines as possible but that is tough.
