How can I optimize my earnings. My website is now PR3 and indexes FAST on Google.

    I have a PR3 blog making about $1.50 a day from adsense. Google indexes me quickly and ranks me high. I should be making way more money off of this. I haven't had much luck with affiliate programs, but how can I maximize my earnings?

    I would be willing to share some revenue with anyone willing to help me optimize. I can no longer solely rely off of my zango income when this site has so much potential to earn.

    Having your site indexed does not offer you much benefits in my opinion unless you are in the news or buzz business. You should try to rank for competitive keywords or long tail keywords that are relevant to your site in order to make more money as traffic from search engines converts easier.

    not sure if Its maximized or not. Its not bad, and all my traffic is coming from google from grand theft auto terms. I just know that, for as little effort as it takes for me to rank I should be making more than 1.50 a day.

    I don't care for the paid posting personally. But I do have a PPP widget on my site just in case.

    How is your AdSense placed? It is quite possible that placement tweaks would dramatically increase your income.

    You may have got Pagerank, but how much traffic do you get?

    if you ranking well for anything Grand Theft Auto related I would grab the ball and run with it

    GTA is a long running series whos popularity wont be going anywhere for awhile

    get whatever out of those terms that you can

    Optimize your ads placements.

    Try to improve your CTR.

    Add new content on regular bases. This will help you get traffic from search engines, remember that

    Traffic = $$$

    Traffic and ads placements are the most important factors in your earnings.

    Just keep your content good. If you are doing good at the moment the don't change anything, your site must be in a process of growing, if it is then just let it grow there is nothing you can do.
    If you want to optimize your earnings it depends on your Ad placements try playing around with your Ad placement, if it's not working then simply go back to the ad positioning you were using, it doesn't hurt to try.

    It also depends on your demographics, are your visitors tech savvy people? If so then you might not be making much money because tech savvy people are not very likely to click on ads, do a study on your visitors and analyze your data so you'll be able to pin point your problem.

    Yeah, its really exciting to see this blog take off after so long. I was really tired of relying on zango for income.

    Sign up with other networks firstly beside adsense. Also, try your best to be quality oriented. One important aspect of it all is this, yes Gtas popularity wont go down for a while, but relevant advertisement for your site will always be an issue my friend, ie if you only use adsense. Consider that too. So banner ads might yield a better return compared to adsense.
