    Hey there...!

    As I said before, I'd like to design an investment website. I want to get an idea of how much effort I should need to make a successful AdSense website.

    I plan to use SEO monthly. Yet after that, I have no idea how to make the website more successful or popular. What should be the next step? Are there any websites that I should SERIOUSLY read over?

    Please no sales gimmicks! Only serious guidelines would be appreciated.

    Thanks and may you have a blessed day as the Lord wills.

    Unsure as to what you mean by "seo monthly"? SEO is an ongoing process and should be devoted time on a daily basis in order to be sucessful especially in a competitive industry.

    The success of an adsense website can only be had if you gain visitors on mass, in order to do this you have to bring a selection of people to your site that converts at a higher percentage than your margin qualifies.

    150 Visits = 1 Click / 1 Click = $3 to you

    Say it costs you $5 per 100 clicks on adwords, and $5 per month on links to gain 300 visits

    400 visits per month for $10

    Sooo you need $3-4 to hit your 150 visits to convert into $3

    Though if you increase your link spend to $100 per month you are now gathering visits in total, this equates to $122. As you can see a clear 22% profit because of the mass numbers

    As you can see this particular case would not be worth pursueing, but you can see my point, the numbers need to add up, your site is dependat upon its visitors.

    Nothing would make your site popular more then content or unique idea "some kinda new web application that's useful".
    I know lot of popular sites so bad on seo but people keep coming for good content, SEO isn't the king.
    focus on per user bases and you will reach lot of people when time comes.

    Hey Link Juice ... & others...

    I think I see your point. I'm new to AdSense.

    The downside is I've designed a VB.Net app that generates info' that my website MUST have. I've been quoted a monthly fee of $60 for an ASP.Net 3.5 website & a server to update the data it needs. That part makes me question if this is something I should even consider.

    The second avenue to consider is for me to just use a regular ASP.Net 3.5 website with my home workstation updating the website at regularly scheduled intervals. But the additional electric expense and periodic blackouts (~ once a year) may prove to much.

    God bless

    Wissam ...

    Thanks for your view!

    I don't want to give away to much, but I have confidence that this type of website has been done in the past. (I've seen them) Yet those who have tried it have NOT done it on this scale ...... for free! It does have more content than others with charts and graphs. Yet it MUST be updated!

    But the start up $ of 60 a month. I don't like that part.

    God bless

    SEO is necessary to get traffic. However, if you are planning to get more and more traffic, you need to add more and more content

    Thanks for your feedback...! But is the main idea just as you've pointed out? ...to increase quality content? If I were to use SEO while maintaining real-time quality content, would that surpass advertising?

    God bless

    cctv dvr ... & everyone ...

    Thanks for sharing your experience.

    Yet, you have gone beyond my understanding website development. I'm kinda new to this. I'm from the DOS, line numbered, and dot-matrix days. So please excuse me for asking you to define, "exchange more high links" and how that fits into things?

    May you have a blessed day as the Lord wills.

    If you are going to hire some SEO company do your SEO jobs for monthly and generate revenue by adsense, then I have to say it's not worth it. The only income from adsense could not substain your monthly SEO cost, yet the revenue is not reliable too.

    1. If you want to generate revenue via adsense, try to focus low - medium degree competitive keywords and learn to do SEO yourself. That's worth it.

    2. If you still need to hire some SEO company do SEO for you - You should change your business model from rely only with adsense to something much bigger. You may consider some keywords which is a shopping one to sell some product online as ecommerce solution, or to be an affiliated with big advertisers in a reliable network such as CJ, ShareAsale, Google Affiliate Network, etc.
