The definition of Insanity..

    is to repeat something over and over expecting different results.

    and it just dawned on me, maybe making quality sites with constantly updated content for keywords I KNOW about...is not the answer to making money simply by using adsense?

    ..maybe its INSANE?


    Am I the only one here making less than $200-300 per month, but actually cares about the content they produce?

    it seems like people who make money are so secretive about what they are doing, although if you look at companies like walmart- everyone know's what they are doing.. and its up to you to TRY to duplicate it.

    That is my approach to building sites, i would not hesitate to show my sites to anyone; even if they made insane ( no pun intended ) money, because it still would take a ton of hard work to match.


    Am I insane? someone help get me back on track.. PLEASSE!

    Im on the edge of turning over to the "dark side"

    Its also the amount of traffic you get to your sites and how interested they are in the Adsense ads.

    It's just like someone asking, what is the formula of Coca Cola? Did you tried to research your field? Try out to market your content which can be done from different angle, I am sure it can give you some good results.

    Since you are about to turn over to the "dark side", please don't! Be patient. Patience is a virtue....that I don't have, but when I sometimes put the saying into practice, I profit from it. Believe me, it works.

    If you go crazy, you get nowhere. It happens to me. I agree with BeirutMarketing and with macG. Follow their suggestions (and mine, if you wish), one step at a time and I am sure you will succeed.

    Tell us how you are doing!

    Very good luck!:)

    you can only make 'serious' amounts of money with adsense with a huge amount of traffic. Some sites are just never going to get that much traffic - nothing wrong the site or promotion, the niche just isn't always that big.
    So look for other ways to monetise that are sympathetic with your niche audience.

    You can't make people appreciate a certain niche, no matter how good or regular your content is. It's all about market research if you want to really find success with this stuff.

    I think you should develop ur own content and ideas and don't care so much about money, if what ur doing is good the money will come eventually.

    Having 100 fake adsense websites that gets clicks from dumb people or some proxy that people use to watch gay porn in school won't get u anywhere... u will make money for sometime and then its gone.

    If you have time and patience, building a good website that offers good content that really interest ur visitors is the best option... once it gets popular u can get a staff and maybe open ur own company.

    I had proxies, i made money spamming myspace and doing stuff just for the money and that's my experience.

    Today i'm just researching the market and trying to find stuff that people really needs and can make me a stable income.

    Good luck!

    I think you gotta find the right site and niche, and then don't give up, keep putting on content and marketing it the best you can. Your hard work will soon pay off.
    Good luck, and don't give up.

    I listened to someone trying to order Chinese food on the phone today, 3 or 4 times she tried to spell out the number eight because the lady on the phone couldn't understand her.

    I told her to count from 1-8 and say 8 again after she was done counting and sure enough, it worked like a charm.

    Sometimes frustration prevents us from doing sane things, it helps to have 3rd part perspective.

    people like to keep things secret because they know how really simple it is. The best thing is it doesnt matter how simple most people are to lazy to copy so it doesnt even matter at the end of the day.
