I make $4500-$6000 per month with Adsense

Here is the story on how I get $4500-$6000 per month from Adsense... I hope you guys find it inspiring and useful as well. Keep in mind though that I consider myself pretty new to Adsense since I started this whole thing in february this year.

Anyway, one month before I even put up my first site I spent a lot of time on forums, reading books etc. on how seo works, how to make the best use of adsense and how to build sites of high quality in niches with high paying keywords.

I came to the following conclusion, and this is what I always keep in mind when building a website:
- I don't overdo the SEO, no keyword stuffing or anything like that. No aggressive incoming links. I make quality websites for humans in the first place and then adjust them afterwards to rank well in search engines.
- I only do websites in niches with acceptable paying keywords, and I use one domain per niche.
- The websites are very content rich, 200-1000 words per page, and on each page I am very much on topic, no blah blah about other things just to fill it up. I write texts for humans, not search engines. Each site has about 10-20 pages related to the niche.
- I use ads that blend in very well, same link colours as my own links and white background like all of my sites have. I never spam pages with 3 ad units, instead I use good positioning which grabs the users attention. I never make any placements that could possibly break the Adsense TOS.
- To me good design is important. When I make a website and show it to a friend he/she should find it good looking.
- The amount of visitors is not important to me. I used to have adsense on a hobby site with 3000 visitors/day and only got $5/day. Then I started a niched website about finance and got $40/day from only 150 visitors/day. In fact, my 8 websites all together don't even reach 1000 unique visitors per day!
- I make as high quality websites as I can and follow adsense TOS very carefully. A ban would be a disaster since adsense is the only income I have at the moment.

I could probably go on forever, but my tip in general is to find out as much as possible, plan what you aim to do and just do it. It is a lot of work, but once it's done the money arrive monthly on autopilot. If you gather a lot of knowledge before starting you could also make over $5000/month within just 6 months.

 

i actually want to try the same thing. the only problem i would have is getting traffic to them..

 

Dang, you could pretty much live off of that money. You'll pretty much need all that good stuff, and one major thing, traffic! The thing that drives us crazy and will pay a heck-a lot of money for just to get some. Basically you'll just need to make a good unique idea for a website, use these tips, and get the traffic coming.

 

Build really good content and you should get traffic from search engines

 

Yup, that is the main problem to everyone.

 

Hi,

Thanks for sharing this. How much time each day do you put into your sites?

I have a course called Adsense Wealth Empire that is a very systematic approach and basically does what you are saying, as far as non spammy content is concerned.

Its the time each day that has got me stuck, but I probably am making a mountain out of a molehill too

Cheers - DJK

 

i am really trying to do that but I am still idiot on how to make a niche site

 

Great advice, but man...5k a month off Adsense and you've only been in the webmastering biz since February? What was your starting budget?

 

I've been working with other websites since 1997 for customers and such, but never tried adsense for real until february this year. My starting budget was $0. Everything has been free except buying domain names and hosting. I have spent about 3-4 hours in my sparetime since february working on the sites. From tomorrow on I will start seriously and go for 8 hours/day. I hope it will pay off.

 

some great things in your post......but the same issue everywhere.....TRAFFIC. I know 2 things E=Mc2 & Traffic = $$$$

thanks snoopydoo, this post is very inspiring to me. i'm getting a ton of traffic from celeb sites i've had for years but just threw up adsense in June. noticed that the celeb niche sucks so now i'm moving on to better niches.

 

30,000 monthly visitors generating $4500 a month is quite high. That works out to about $.15 per raw visitor. At a 10% CTR, each click would have to pay around $1.50.

Either you have a golden niche or you are pulling our leg!

Please post some screenshots of your Adsense earnings.

 

thats some impressive click to have $ 40 from just 150 visitors (not even click), mind showing us the site so we can better learn your technique?

 

I agree. I have a few finance sites and do get $1.50 clicks sometimes, but VERY rarely.

 

can you show us an example of one of your websites? I am not saying I do not believe you, I just want to see how yours look compared to mine. If you do not want to put it out here you can always PM me =]

cheers

 

My best this month is 194 page views for $22.

 

I regularly get clicks from 1.50 to 2.00, it all depends on the niche and the finance niche pays well. Good job to the OP sounds like hard work is paying nice dividends for you.

 

The amount is a giant Thanks for sharing

 

I hope you diversifying. Putting all your eggs in one AdSense basket is risky, given that they have been a bit ban-happy lately.

I also use Bidvertiser and AdBrite, just to mix things up a bit.

 

one of those "i am doing great" from a guy with 3 post, they come all the time and i do not belive anything from them. If i was making 5000 $ a month from Adsense i would not sitt here talking about it. Your 2 post says the same stuff so when are you going to try to sell us something?
