Try to get some more visitors.. and yeah place the ads where people can see them. The colors of the ads should be same as your website colors. You can get a lot of clicks with these things done.
Do some blogposts with the right keyword research. Find some low hanging fruit keywords and make those the title of your blogposts. Then start shooting links to those blogposts.
I'm guessing after all this you probably have at least a click by now. Keep working on it though. All the tips could be helpful.
Yes after making some changes have finally got one click. Thanks to all and i will try the advise recommended.
All you need to do is keyword optimization... to gain high SERP is a must to be succeed in adsense. Getting more and more contextual link is the priority, we can help you for this
Two things: build some quality backlinks to your site (SEO toolbar finds only 8 backlinks, your site has no PageRank) and be patient. It takes some time before search engines trust your site. Your ads are obviously ads, that can keep visitors from clicking on them. A better template would be good as well.
I will suggest article marketing to get more traffic to your blog.. This way your visitors will be targeted when they visit your blog and therefore you can possibly gain some revenue and you may need to posts at least once a week. Every time you post use pingomatic and then social bookmark your posts as well.. This will surely help you get some decent traffic. Hope this helps..
You will need way more visitors to start getting clicks. At least 150+ per day is the minimum to start getting a few clicks a week.
I don't like the layout. It's too compartmentalized and makes it too easy for visitors to disregard ad spots. In my experience it can be, depending on the subject matter and browsing history of typical visitors to the site. It's not going to make you rich, but it can pay the bills for shared hosting that would support 20 such sites pretty easily. On the other hand, I do have a 2-3 year old Blogspot blog that barely makes enough to pay for a domain name every year, let alone hosting. The blogspot blog gets about 150 visitors a day.
I can't say that specifically because I've never moved a site from Blogspot to it's own domain, nor have I started a website off of Blogspot that has similar enough subject matter to a site that I have on Blogspot for me to have anything to compare directly and confidently say that being on Blogspot was a considerable detrimental factor. I can say that I have sites of a similar age and with similar subject matter to each other which are not on Blogspot which vary greatly from each other in their CTR and eCPM. I can also say that I am happier with what I'm able to do on my self-hosted sites compared to what I've been able to do on Blogspot. -- Looking at your subject matter, I would say stay on Blogspot for the time being but acquire a regular domain name for it with some relevant keywords in it. Then, skip doing link exchanges that go directly to your home page and find ways to advertise individual article pages.
