Thanks for the name calling. Didn't know some of us act like children..... My point is - you could create a 5 page site with content on it - which should take about 15 minutes and then spend the rest of your time sending traffic to your site. This will get you some earnings. You seem to forget that if your a newbie - generating a ton of content and working on your site to make it huge, and applying SEO skills is not that easy for most of them. Most of them want to see some earnings early on and my point was that this would create some earnings easily and give them the encouragement to continue.
you can't 'buy' traffic from anywhere. All those sites like traffic mother and stuff are bots. Your analytics will show hits, but none would be real. and what more, as per google terms you shouldn't be using any bots to generate clicks, or impressions. you will get your account banned. look for decent ways to drive legitimate traffic to your site.
That's true. The more mistakes you make (although you shouldn't be aiming to make any) the more you learn from them.
is there a good thread on how to drive traffic? I did a bit of searching and couldnt find anything serious
Traffic is very logical. You post a link and write a paragraph or two about it on a related site, then you should get interested, and returning visitors. And use the search.
Then how'd you miss stuff like: http://forums.digitalpoint.com/showthread.php?t=943104 http://forums.digitalpoint.com/showthread.php?t=1128646 http://forums.digitalpoint.com/showthread.php?t=1100937 They were all on the first page of the same forum.
Great threads man, thanks. Honestly, I didn't see them. Well, Im a peon after all. Thanks for the links.
If you have good content, ur readers will promote your site themself, so write good content, put 1% of your effort on traffic.
heh, lets say you run a restaurant. you cook for 9 hours and attract customers for 1 hour? all the food would be wasted dude.
Start driving traffic now... so visit my site. hehe! adsensitivity.blogspot.com posting URLs (but not live)... is it allowed?
Thanks for the positive comments and politeness in your post. Adding content will drive traffic. That is one way of getting traffic isn't it? Asking questions at a forum won't get you traffic.
I totally agree to what you said. Traffic is all, that one need to increase adsense earnings. In some cases, the earnings can be increased little bit, via optimizing the ad placements and ad units that are used, otherwise, the key to earning good money via adsense is to get lot of targeted traffic to your site.
