    How long does it take you on average for your idea to become a reality and start making decent AdSense revenue online. A day? a Week? 6 Months? Years?

    I would say on average it takes me 3-6 months...what about you?
    Can you give any tips on how to speed up that process?

    Here are my tips:

    Set specific time lines to complete your tasks. E.g. Purchase domain, design header... SEO etc.

    How much money to you make once its complete on average? $1.00 a day? $5.00?

    I just threw out a bunch of question... feel free to add to this conversation as I am always interested in how others innovate on the web.

    Happy Holidays,
    -Tim

    It takes a few months to make any real money. You have to get site listed in sesrch engines . You can make money fast if you use adwords and watch the keywords and prices

    If I have an idea it takes me less than an hour to get it started. Just started a site 3-4 days ago and it's made 3-4$. Not bad but I expected more. This'll probably be a project that gets trashed in 2 weeks though. I don't keep things up if they are taking up valuable resources + funneling energy into a project.

    You just need to set yourself up with a formula.

    I agree. Im constantly balancing what I think will take to much of my time. A lot of my projects turn into those... i need to find more nice compromises :)

    I think the hardest part is to get traffic driving to your site before the SEO starts to hit your site, and before you have a following of people that visit your site on a regular basis, for me at least 1 month

    Usually as soon as the traffic starts to roll in. I'd say 2 - 4 months max.

    It took me a year before I started making any money, I hope to duplicate my success on my other sites.

    Well i do something like this
    Start organising content first
    Then based on content look for a domain name
    Get the domain and leave some keyword related content and let the domain age when i go to work on my website, takes a month or so for completion, then optimisation takes another month and in the 3rd month traffic starts kicking in, 4th month i add adsense, and within one month i reach the $5 - 8 mark a day
    Then i move on to the next website
    I have 5 websites right now with two in the optimisation stage and is earning around 25$ per day
    Of course there are other 5 domains ageing for me right now:)

    Thats great. Having a production cycle like that can only mean better output. There are some good tips in what you wrote, thank you.

    It always takes a few months before the money starts in adsense
