Are you making $500,000 yet?

Don't think this is some sort of "promotion". I saw this at another forum and didn't see it here, so I thought I'd share.

John Reese is pulling in over $500,000 in adsense revenue. Not too bad I'd say. What are you doing here? Get to work!

Here's the video - http://www.marketingsecrets.com/images/vrevideo.html

PS - It doesn't seem to play in FireFox. Work in IE thou.

 

There are people pulling in >300 grand per month. This is no big news.

 

Great read!

 

does anyone here even make anything close to substantial from adsense?

 

Er. What's wrong with that picture? Earnings on the graphic total to ~$100.

$500k my a**. Is there a point to that graphic I am not understanding, besides someone circling a fictitious number?

 

Yeah, I saw that one, the video and the forums etc..

The picture might be legit, but don't think he's going to open you his secrets

 

Spend your time working on your sites, writing content, doing SEO stuff etc. That will bring you adsense success. Listening to such videos is waste of time, because there are absolutely NO 'adsense secrets'.

 

that's quite true.

No one will tell you all the secrets, you need to find it all yourself.

Better use the free advice found in forums.

Just need to know the right forums usually

 

Someone is always going to make more money, have a bigger site, and be more successfull. I don't think about that though, I just do my own thing.

 

I make mid x,xxx per month. I'd love to be making xx,xxx per month but it's pretty hard making sustainable revenue gains at this point.

 

and on how many websites do you have ads placed? how much traffic? were the websites created specifically for the purpose of placing adsense?

 

Not yet, not even close.
Thanks for the link.

 

Good read that, thanks for sharing!

 

well, just like 499,940 $ to go... I'm coming close

 

John gives all of his "secrets" in this thread - http://www.warriorforum.com/forum/topic.asp?TOPIC_ID=75941 . His comments are at the bottom and on page 2.

You can read and find out what he does. Nothing special though. Lots of sites. Lots of content. There you go. Take of it what you will. This type of video is meant to inspire you to go and achieve some success.

 

What people always focus on in these instances is revenues - what would be far more interesting is focus on *profits*.

 

It definitely gives you something to think about. It definitely shows that there's room for growth and improvement. Right now, I'm dead in the water as far as my expansion ideas. I know, I know, CONTENT IS KING or whatever, but it's worse. I've got writer's block, so I can't even generate new worthwhile content. It might be school/job/switching hosts are taking it out of me for the moment, but when there's a lag, it's almost fateful to let it go on for too long.

 

You can always hire someone to write you some content.

As for the video, there's really nothing there that you can't learn from hanging out on DP.

 

I'll share a GREAT TIP I got from Brad Callen.

Go to elance.com, and post the topics/keywords & specs that you would like to have written up. Copywriters from around the world will bid on writing the content for you. You can get an article written for as low as $5. (I suppose the cost depends on specs, word count and the level of expertise req'd)

Anyway, I just added another 70 pages of unique content to my site the easy way. I'm compiling another list of topics to add a lot more more.

I'm looking for the page where he discusses this on his site and I'll post as soon as I can find it.

 

Not making that much yet. But I found three pennies and a nickel on top of my fridge this morning, so I'm headed straight to the top.
