You need a website within a good niche that receives a descent amount of traffic. Ad placement also plays an important factor.
great tips! follow this model just traffic = $$ niche and traffic = $$$ niche + traffic + ad placement = $$$$ more ads on a page = $$ few ads on a page = $$$$ if people pay money for keywords obviously those pay more will get a better chance of getting their ads being show, fewer ads means high paying ads will show and mfas eats a$$. the thing with fewer ads is how you place the ad that it attracts a click from the visitor, which is a pain in the crap hole, but once you figure it out and master it, enjoy the mula!
