Making A Living on On Adsense

    Does anyboy on DP make their living mainly off Adsense? I mean like 70 - 90% of their income is adsense checks?

    I'm not talking about some of the so-called 'gurus' we have here, just the ordinary member who is not out to sell their latest ebook...

    Living off adsense seems like a risky venture seeing how tempremental google can be in its SERPS results.

    I am making and trust me you need an expert advice to do that and if you think you can get it for free it will take time. As for me i believe its better to spend some money smartly if i get good returns...

    Whatever you do, NEVER EVER BUILD a whole business on adsense it's too risky.

    You may get banned for no reason. If that happens all gone. So create multiole revenue stream which is highly reccomended....

    Sorry for being litle bit -ve. But it's a truth.

    Adsense is just a part of my online moneymaking portfolio, but if I had to live off the income from it alone, I'd do just fine..

    yeah i'm pretty sure that there are perhaps hundreds of webmasters on this forum who simply lurk or only post on the rare occassion but are making hefty adsense income. As oppossed to those who post all the time their 'inspirational' story and a link to their 'make money' website, ebook and affiliate program.

    @Ladyboss - any adsense tips to share?

    Depending only or mostly on adsense surely is risky. If you also earn some money via affiliates, or freelancing, then you can consider yourself a little safer.

    Don't depend completely on Adsense. Spread out to Affiliate marketing as well.

    I have heard so, but I don't think it is possible for me with adsense income.

    Adsense should not be your primary source of online income. Its common to hear people got banned for nothing and its rare that they activate back the banned account. But it can definitely pay more than just the bills. DP has many tips on getting traffics which will be most important when you marketing your MFA sites. Hard work and determination are the key success point. Dont need to buy those 'guru' ebooks or software.

    I don't make a living off of it yet but will soon. That being said I would have to agree with essai4u in that you need to diversity your earnings or bad things could happen.

    Once you get the hang of Adsense and start making money move on to affiliate marketing or publishing. This way your money won't dry up. And remember to reinvest what you make in order to make more money.

    I used to pull in $500+ per day from adsense. It's not good to have all your eggs in one basket though. I now diversify between Comission Junction, Clickbank, and several of my own products. :)

    I would never rely soley on adsense. Only a small portion of my earnings are from adsense. And even those ads could easily be replaced by YPN.

    Adsense as your main income is a bad idea. Just don't do it.

    never ever rely on one single source of revenue. Be it adsense or any other PPC site.

    I would try to expand the marketing and not solely rely on Adsense.
