How many search engine referrals were you getting and how much were you making from Adsense in the first month after uploading your site? I am only getting about 10 referrals a day from the search engines (mostly from Google and MSN) and making about $1 a day on average.
The number of referrals you get from SE's depends on how well you set up your links, network, etc. If you're only getting 10 a day from Google AND MSN combined after one month, you obviously didn't do it correctly. Best advice? Read in the SEO section about getting traffic, building links, and start doing that. In any case, $1/day off 10 referrals/day isn't that bad. I'd suggest spending your time on getting traffic instead of worrying that you haven't become rich off ADsense yet. BTW I was doing in the 1000s/day off referrals from Google ALONE after 2 weeks.
Hi Jack, Was this your first site or did you already have many sites and interlinked them which directed some traffic to your new site. I am not sure how a new site can generate thousands of referrals a day without first being fully indexed and having a some high PR backlinks, which you must have had by linking your various sites.
I think it takes lot of time to get a good google rank. And backlinks are very important. But anybody can suggest which is the best way to get good rank / get backlinks on other sites?
