I have recieved a bunch of pm's and i have decided i am going to help 1000's of people out without charging anything. Before I was charging 10 dollars, now I just am accepting donations. My paypal account is iman999@msn.com . Please take this information and use it wisely: This method is basically about ad placement. All you have to do is put ads on the first half of the page. Make sure that when they open the site, they do not see anything besides banner and ads, this misleads people to thinking that the ads are content. A fair share of people will find something interesting and give it a click. Around 15%+. This site http://www.searchfreak.org/ has adsense ads all on top. Many people think ads is part of content which allows a ton of clicks. This is an example of another site that has my method, look at this revenue based on its traffic http://www.sitepoint.com/marketplace...chmentid=21878 . Around 100-200 impressions a day and making around 5-10$ a day. Although this may alter the style of your directory, it is your choice to make money over a small style loss. Remember, ads can be changed such as the color to fit well with your site. If your starting a new site, build it in as you go. Hope you guys enjoy this free info, and post your adsense revenue if this has changed your earnings, donate if you can for this valuable information to iman999@msn.com and good luck.
Seen this style and people who place the catagory title / sub title still at the top as well, theres another % for you. For me its a con job and wont con any of my viewers just to gain some short lived $ no pay pal for you from me young lad, i grew up with ethics and honesty, from that i have now sold into the many millions and have a huge and loyal customer base.
Searchfreak? Gawd, I didn't even realize it was a directory when I looked at it (briefly), that's why I asked. I didn't check out the other 'link.' No thanks.
15 % CTR is really cool to have on directories, But that may also at the same time killing the featured listings ! Please correct me If I am wrong, Or is Adsense the only monetization method on these directories.
This says it all . Why would i want to mislead people. why don't I just let them submit their site. plus people who visit directories are all webmasters and no webmaster will ever click on google ads no matter where u place them.
Nothing personal, but I don't think that the main purpose of a directory is to get adsense clicks. I would never put any ads inside directory. The long term success approach would be persuading visitors to stay longer and click through the categories. If a visitor thinks your directory contains valuable info he/she will return and in long term you will develop a popular directory with a high PageRank throughout the sub-categories. Then you may think about cashing in, asking for a submission fee. I would never pay for an inclusion in a directory that starts with Ads and tries to mislead me As to Adsense, I thought it was proven that those ads work best if mixed inside a piece of text, i.e. article. I usually get approx 5-7% CTR when it comes to articles. If your CTR is higher, you either are a lucky bastard or you do something wrong and soon be penalised for that. Now do I need to give my PayPal account, or this comment is not worth a modest donation??
you might as well put pictures of naked porn stars by those ads while you are at it. why not? it will get your ctr to 30% probably.
Nice idea, ever since I contacted the guy and let him know my site I got 30 clicks in 5 minutes. Don't worry, Adsense knows, blocked the IP. And now, DP mods will know, too.
