this isn't a "how can i get rich from adsense?!?!?!1" topic. i'd like to get an idea of how many websites people tend to run (with adsense on) to earn a decent daily income ($10 +). i currently run two sites but struggle to get 40 uniques daily between them. they are very new, though.
You can do it with one site or you can do it with a million. I'd say having two sites is a good start... now just promote promote promote (without spamming--promote: SEO, back links, commenting on blogs, asking for reviews, etc.). I know it'd be easier for a numerical answer, but it's just not the same with AdSense. Everyone performs at different levels which means YOU need to figure out how to do it for yourself. Niches also plays a part in your CPC which means same CTR vs two niches with same traffic can be a huge difference in revenue. Hope I made some sort of sense. I think it'd be better for you to try out things for 3 months and then if you aren't improving to start asking for help. Getting the right "formula" for yourself is what (I believe) this game is all about.
thanks for the replies i wasn't asking how many i should have, i just wanted to get a feel of how many you guys run in general
I run 5 sites but mainly concentrate on 3, its too time consuming to run more that is if you want yer content to be worth reading.
Number doesn't matter. You can make in millions with a single site if you have the required traffic and good content. Traffic matters
