I know someone who has a website who has many 1st, 2nd, and 3rd positions in Google for 1 word and 2 word search phrases. The theme is centered around general inspirational things, mostly stories and pictures and such. He gets over 6000 unique hits per day. He makes over $1100/month in Adsense. What are your best recommendations on how to generate more income? -
I agree, for a non niche non topical site that is a well performing site based on what you have said. If you let people know some search phrases the pages garner their traffic from then someone might have a more direct suggestion. If the visitors are not returning and the site essentially gets one off visits then try ganking it up with some kontera ads perhaps. If there are some pages that are topical but the ads are coming up to general then use the google adsense tags that give weight to the relevant parts and ignore the non descriptive parts.
I think that a low income from sites with 6000 unique per day. Try to optimize ads placements. whats the niche?
Try some CPM ads. With 6k a day, throw some interstatials on there and he'd be at $2000+ easy for the total.
yea 1100 from adsense on 6000 uniques a day website? i make 500$ on site with the same uniques with adbrite, definitely optimize ad placements. If the niche is "general" as you say, content must be crap and click-thru should be great, just make your ads noticed!
