IMO, I don't think they will tell, coz they tell and they immediately increase their competetion by 100 sites more.
Hi, To reach this level, you need to have high traffic. Building a community site is a great idea, you get bunch of people to post up content for you, come back again and again and spread the word of mouth for you. You may set up a newsletter/list/ezine to build up closer relationship with your visitors, give them value,invite them to return to your site to read further.
Hey.. you cant expect such basic questions to get very serious answers. You dont have a website, you dont have any idea to start one.. all you have is an aim to make 55.55$(??) per day! phew!! Buddy, there are websites from every field that makes more than that. From viagra to porn to self improvement sites. I personally own a crack site, which earn somewhere in that region(dont want to publish it here.. I know people can get bit irritated seeing a crack forum running adsesne .. hehe..). So your question is not going to get any meaningful answers, its a typical answer which you already know : any site which you are interested in! To be frank, I guess somebody who cant be creative enough to have an idea of himself, can not be expected to succeed. Sorry to be rude, but thats the fact. You cant really expect someone to spoon feed you. Look around, think .. think.. If you need any specific advice, like use this channel to adverstise, optimize the ads this way.. etc.. etc.. you may get a bettet response. One last advice, a little more politeness doesnt hurt! After all you are not paying anyone for the advice! And I must add, a bit more sense of humor doesn hurt too. if you dont understand why I telling you all these, read your first few replies best of luck to your idea, when it finally arrives
I think If you already good at CPM , continue using CPM is better. Adsense is only good for content site (including some forum) Can you tell me what's the minimum requirement of doubleclick ?
Well I make 45-50 million impressions monthly. The minimum they have is less then 100k. Anyway, I think I will figure the rest out because there isn't much.
Wow... for $3,500/month that's $0.00007 per hit? 100,000 hits for $7. That just seems a little off to me.
Why don't you stop posting and read? You have 94 posts yet you don't have a website? The answers that you seek are in the forums. No one is going to hold your hand and design a website layout with perfect ad placement for you.
Whoa, in your first post in this thread you wrote this: Now you say you have websites. Which is it? Do you have websites or not? If you're already making $2,500-$3,500 monthly why do you care about making $55.55 a day? Weird.
Well I don't own these websites, I just host many of them since they are frequently under attack. Anyway, not to get off topic here. I already started on my website and will finish tomorrow. Then to spend some money on advertising.
I agree. Maybe more like $7 per 1000 so $25 to $35/month. Which is probably the range (3 to 6 months) most newbies start to get frustrated at... My advise to you is to be able to do this for the long run. At least 2 to 3 years before you make a serious revenue like $5k+/m and then you will need to be lucky and good with the web site you develop. To reach you goal of 55$/month could take 1 year so make sure you have another source of revenue or that you can stay with your parents or some real good friends. So what topic ? Something you can talk about or write about for the next 2 or 3 years and still enjoy. Most likely you will need a least one skill: - Be very competent in the field - Be very friendly and engaging (hum...) There it is my friend. Welcome to the world of community builting. Chris
I'd suggest that you read The Rich Jerk ebook, lots of tips in there. I just build up a VBulletin site, advertised it and this is my 3rd month running it, making 50+ with YPN/day and another 2/3k/mo with direct ad sales. It's not that hard, just don't listen to the losers, people that had to wait at least 1 year to make the minimum wage is probably stupid anyways. Offence givin to "grunt". I know this is getting off topic, but if you read the ebook by the rich jerk, you would understand in details which kind of ad placement will attrach the most clicks, etc+ much more
I personally know a guy who's in the same line of business I'm in, which would be considered "entertainment/humor" and he's making over 60 bucks a day for sure-- so I guess it all has to do with quality of the traffic you bring in.
I've heard you could make more money with PPC insted of CPM. Some successful people I know make 3,000-5,000 daily unique hits and generate from $75.00 to $125.00 USD daily... but they wont tell me how! Anyway, I do appiciate all of your responses regarding this topic, so thanks. Also, about the 40-50m impression thing, that is what I entered at doubleclick.net.
People share tips here, like where to put the ads, or how many ads to use, or what colors to use. No one is going to tell you what topic to pick to make $55 a day. If I come up with a topic for a website that's going to generate 20K per year, I'm keeping it to myself, not giving it away on a forum. You come up with an idea, and a website, and ask a specific question, politely, you might get some help.
It takes money to make money, your initial startup is propotional to your monthly profit. I mean, I started with at least 5k in advertising and now I'm at 2/3k/mo less advertising purchases. So you know, first see how much money you can spend on advertising, then pick any market/niche that you have at least a touch of, and then just start going for it. Personally, I just like doing vbulletin type of sites, or maybe portal. You can also go with unique kind of layout by hiring a programmer.
