i wanted to give up also. But here in DP i got a lot of useful tips that are helping me to develop better. So i think the best thing is to keep on working. Is like if you want to have a hotel: you can buy one that is fully working, spending a lot of money (like buying a website), or you can just build it yourself, it will be hard in the begining, giving and not getting, but once you have built it, time to relax and profit. Everyone falils because they just not effort enough for enough time....
GOOD for us. one less competitor. BTW I earned only $8 in my first month of adsense (thats one extra week than what you have spent and $2 LESS then what you expect) This is no place for weak heart. You are new to this, so I would suggest you to think over it seriously. This is not easy money, its just like any other business, you have to put in lot of effort, time and money. Then you have to wait. Google doesn't put new site on top just like that, so how can you expect to get hugh traffic and lot of money in first three weeks. You are the only person who can decide. Good luck
lol... it takes a LOT of work to make money with adsense. I'm up to about $1000/month and have been putting in about 12 hour days at least five days a week since late April to get to this level...with about 8 blogs. It's not easy...you gotta keep at it.
Patients is key.. Also finding that niche. Never quit on a site to earyl because every site out there has some what of a chance of becoming a hit.
Ottodo, Hardwork is not = to High Rewards. Hardwork+correct technique then can you get High Rewards!! The 1st month of Adsense I got $240+... Why? becos Hardwork + Technique gives me lots of exposure on the Search Engines, And today, even if i dun do anything, i will still be making some money from Adsense. Remember it is in a way a form of residual income.. ( not guaranteed to last 10-20 years but long enough to make some good income for a while ). Dun give up so easily. Fight on!
If you build your site just for the money in it then GIVE UP and the net it will be more cleaner afther this way .... My story i invested few hundred dolars until now i have only 1 site only maked 24$ in 3 months (any way it's a webdirectory and those are not well with adsense) the rest 5 sites are in developing as i whant to make some quality sites not crap i will invest more time and work and maybe next year i could say it makes good money ..... That's my opinion i think you should GIVE UP you are the kind who fills the net with wanna make money with my website go find something that you earn money fast or get a job .... i'm, not rude i just told you if you complayn afther 3 weeks is no use Regards
