    I recently was told that i could make a relatively good amount of petty cash using blogger in unison with adsense

    the only problem is, i have no idea how to get more traffic, and also get more clicks

    i was thinking about utilizing my computer class, and just tell them all to check out my blog, but i figured that wouldn't work

    so how do i get money, while using blogger?

    also, a lot of people have told me they randomly get banned for earning too much, is this true?

    use google insights to identify good niches, then chose the one(s) you believe you can write about for years to come. Don't expect to make any significant money for at least 6 months to 1 year, while working hard on producing original content that people are actually searching for.
    If you have faith then you'll succeed, if you abandon or change niches too soon, they you'll fail or simply stay at a mediocre level of earnings.

    So, can we just create a website, rather than a blog?

    Do a keyword research before you do anything. Once you got proper keyword you can build a website around that. It can be a standard html or a blog dont matter

    So we pick a keyword that is basically the hot topic, right? Then we just build a web around that? Sounds easy!

    No, Not hot topic, but keyword(s) that is high enough in demand i.e sufficient people are typing it in on google search, and low enough in competition i.e not too many results come up when you look for those keyword whicn mean not many people are competing for the same keyword(s).

    Start long tail, then buld up to shorter phrase

    And yeah, if you do find good keyword(s) and do rank high for that keyword(s), it really is easy.

    But how would we make a blog about a keyword? I don't understand. Do you mean like a keyword like "Cell phone reviews"?

    You can base a whole site/blog around google insights categories and use it always before writing any new post. Use this method and you'll succeed, otherwise you can do other things, but this is a good idea for someone just starting. Easy.
