The Budget for Adsense HOW MUCH and Where it goes to

First of all; yes you need budget for a hosting account and a domain name.

but what's next? What's more important. The development of the website or the traffics/advertising.

Let say if you have $100. And you found this cool php script that worth $100, and you also have the option to advertise on Myspace.com for $100. Which one will you choose?

What do you exactly going to do if your income source is just from Adsense and not SELLINGS etc.

 

I think that traffic is the most important factor.

 

I will go for the script first.. and then work hard on SEO to get free traffic. After getting the next $100 from publishing ads, I will go for Purchasing Ads on other sites.

 

I want to say it in 3 words: Traffic, Traffic, Traffic.

After all if you think about it, you want people to exit your site in order to make money.

 

Well with (one of) *MY* site I invested more into the features. Lo and behold traffic went up tremendously (last year). Just spent the last 3 days updating one site; daily uniques is on the rise.

Depends on the site, IMO.

 

I'd take the myspace ad lol

 

i would buy the script, it's easy to build up the traffic

 

script. Why send people to a site with poor content? if so, your advertising $ would be worthless for a 1 time visit. work on content first, make them want to return to your website, THEN spend the $ on attracting them. just my thoughts.

For me traffic is the most important element.

 

Script will be first, then i will think about all the other things

 

A website without traffic is useless, and traffic without a good script is also useless.... Better to go with the script first .... you need the base of the website first !

 

I'd go for traffic first, although a good script is a must...

 

if you have solid features the traffic will come, SEO is mostly a waste of time

 

I disagree.
SEO is just another part of everything that should be done. Features, SEO, Advertising, Unique Content.... they are all just pieces of a pie which should be considered when making a site.

 

i said mostly

we have 2 huge sites @ 150,000visitors day and never have spent a cent on advertising or doing anything SEOish past making pages search engine friendly

concentrate on features and users will come

 

Depends on what type of site you own. I would simply keep adding original content as this will certainly end up getting your visitors from the search engines.

 

Well i usualy do olmost evrything myself

And i invest only from profits ....

 

I think the most important factor is traffic.
