HI, just started playing around with bloging. i used the google easy blog thing last night and put up a simple blog. i know there is some here making 10k a month that will give me some hints as how i can start my adsence business. if you want to see the blog it is at: thedatingmachine.blogspot.com any advice would be great. i am so new at this its funny. what can i do to grow this one and make others to do the same thing. i used the blog thing because i know nothing about creating a web site. tia
The most important thing you can do is create excellent content (you will hear that over and over again). So, I would suggest you concentrate on that for a while. While you are working on that - read the forum and start getting ideas for next steps, but your content is the most important aspect.
Tia, not to be a naysayer, but if you don't know how to make a website, then I think the day you make 10k/mo from Adsense on a blog, is a long way off. You need traffic to generate $$. DP is a great place to learn how to market your site to the search engines as well as other, non-traditional, methods. Read, learn and don't be afraid to ask questions. Just don't expect someone to tell you how to make 10k/mo simply for asking
one of the most important things in your step to success to is get your own domain name and to set it up at a web host online and then install a http://www.wordpress.org blog on it.. do that first and THEN start thinking about your millions!
If you are new to all of this maybe you will find my seo tricks blog useful hope it will be good for you
Do what everyone else does: 1) Sign up for a Blogspot account 2) Make the blog related to Adsense or SEO or Asbestos or Mesothomelia 3) Make 2,3,4 lousy posts composed entirely of crap you found on someone else's Blogspot blog; if you wanna cutp/paste, go right at it, since they probably cut/paste from someone else 4) Slap on Adsense 5) Wait a day. 6) Wait another day. 7) Then post on forums asking why you're not making millions a day on your 2-day old blog on Blogspot. No, really, this works. Promise. Or... Make an actual, decent website/blog and actually spend time building up your content, and keep adding to it, all the while reading about how to improve your traffic, etc. Personally I'd go with the 7-stepper above. Easier, too.
Hi, To make 10 K with adsense you will need a lot of people coming to your blog daily . When they click your ads , you make money . Even if you make $5 per click then calculate the number of people and clicks you will need. To get these many people coming to your blog you can do 2 things . 1. Have some useful content on your blog and then advertise the blog on other websites .But advertising will cost you a lot of money . 2 . Try to update your blog regularly about 2 , 3 times a week or more with new content . Get other websites and blogs link to you . This will increase your search engine ranks . When your blog starts to show up at first ppage in google , people will come to it . This would require really good content because other websites and blogs will link to you when you have something useful . You won't start making 10k in about a day or so .It requires work . Hope that helps you . Regards Jeet
Make sure you are blogging on a topic that you actually are interested in. Don't just start a site up to make money only. You want return visitors and you also want those visitors to tell others about it. Once you have great content and a good amount of visitors then you will begin to make a little money. You will not make much right at the beginning with a new blog but perhaps enough to pay for your daily coffee. One other thing I would do is register your own domain name. Everyone and their dog has a Blogger account and to be honest most of them are full of garbage. Good luck with the site.
Content is king to an extent. Define who your audiance is. Do you want just repeat traffic ie gizmodo getting people to subscribe to your feed or are you looking for search engine traffic? I did a 3 month test with a blogspot pulling from other sites. I made over $200 with less than 100 posts. 90% of the traffic was from google. You will most likely not make money talking about yourself. You need to be product related. Building traffic is key, how you do that is get out there and tell everyone you know about your site. Put it everywere. business cards, bumper stickers etc. (remember this is a business) post in others blogs and on forums, ask people for links. Don't get discouraged, you are new and have no page rank so they are doing you a huge favor if they give you a link. when you put adds into your site, get them as close to your content as possible. You want your readers to click on your adds, that is how you make money, so they have to be were the readers eyes are. This business will take you 2 years to be successful, you need not hundreds but thousands of posts. Don't let someone say that niche is done to death. Who cares, figure a way to make inroads into search engines, remember that everyone is equal online and success is determined by effort and luck. Luck in business is made though so you are in control! Also read a blog like problogger.net, a great resource.

If your interested in some advise on your blog, I would say to cut back on the ads. It looks like you have some ad overkill there. My first impression of your blog is that it is "addy" This will turn off return visitors. If you cut out many of the ads, and make the ones you keep not look like ads, you will be better off.
problogger.net was the first site I came across regarding making money in blogging. He has excellent articles and I visit his site daily.
Build 1000 pages of quality content. Post to your blog daily. Make sure the topic is one that has good paying adsense and can be monetized through affiliate programs in other ways. Get traffic through referrals. Rinse, repeat.
bagman101, how true, just think about the size of a site like cnet.com or about.com. Traffic should be sought through search engines like your life depends on it, because it does. Today on a blog that was started on the 6th of january I am getting nice hits for such a new blog from google. I wish my other sites were getting that kind of traffic from google already. They were all started on the same day, same www. just different /.... so best advice, keep it up, think of each post like you are sending it to work. you have to give it everything it needs to succeed!
I agree with letsmakeamillion. Use wordpress. If you want to make $10,000 a month with blogs you'll probably need more than one blog and you'll need to average 27 quality posts per day for a year on high paying topics. After one year you will have around 10,000 quality posts. Each of those posts might make you a dollar a month on average. (In reality some will make you a bundle while others won't) You want to get a few thousand rss subscribers and a whole bunch of commentors also.
