This is for those how suffers from less than 5 UV per day. This was my traffic once.My site http://www.yowallpapers.com . U can try this as i did to make my traffic 5 to 120+ UV. It also increased my earning 1$ a week form 1$ per day (My niche is low paying). Find a popular site on ur niche and look for its backlinks. u can try this link. http://www.linkvendor.com/seo-tools/domain-popularity.html Then contact (email) the admin or try to find them in DP.(type that sites url on the search box of DP) this way u can know the name of the admin of that site then PM them. If U r failed then go to next site. I am sure u will get a reply form those admins. Now ask them for link exchange. first do about 10 exchanges. Then try to build 2 or 3 way link exchange. And there r lots of free directories there. Submit to those that doesn't require recip link. These Days SE do not care about recip links. I am not saying tht u cant do recip link. Make a extra page for recip links. No need to place ADS there. This way google will index ur site more and also u will get traffic from those sites. And always try to get a sitewide link exchange. And tips for increasing clicks on ads. AVOID DARK BACK GROUNDS AND MAKE UR SITE AND ADS MORE COLORFUL AND BRIGHT. Place Ads inside contents and place link ads under menus or navigators. And off course no need to make them the same color as the menu. Sometimes Odd colors r attractive to click. And if there is a space to place another search box then try to place an extra google search box. why not make it different color!! I am not an expert and i am not earning like a thousand $$ every month. But my earning is increasing day by day and i am happy wit it. I wrote these from my experience. If i am wrong then please correct me. I hope this will help some one. Thank you -Jay
