Making Money with Google Adsense

If you have a website it is foolish not to use Google Adsense

Lets help each other make money with Adsense

I am adding this site to help you make money with the Google Adsense program. Unlike the rest of the sites out there that want to sell you an ebook for almost 100 dollars. I am doing this for free. Everything is on this one web page. You do not have to join or buy anything just browse through the site for helpful information. If you have any ideas on making money with Google Adsense use the link on the side of the page to email the idea or article and if I find it helpful I will put it on the site and give you credit. I am looking for ideas on how to use Google Adsense, website promotion, search engine optimization and website promotion. The more successful our websites the more money we make.

How I started making money with Google Adsense

I have been using Google Adsense almost as long as it has been out. I looked at it when Google first premiered the Adsense program. At the time I had seen so many affiliate programs that were worthless (basically I feel all affiliate programs are worthless) I was hesitant to try it. All I needed was another program to clutter up my site and not make money. After a couple of months I read something again about the Adsense program and thought I would try it on one of my smaller sites. So I put up one set of Adsense adds on the top shared border so that it appeared on every page of the site.  About 5 hours late I checked and had already made 10 dollars. I was so encouraged by the results that by evening I had it on all three of my websites.

How much money can you make with Google Adsense

Now this is a difficult question. Google frowns on people sharing the specifics of what the make. But I make a full time living off of the three sites now. If you have a website and get traffic to the site you will make money with Google Adsense. How much money you can make depends on several factors. I will list out the considerations then give a brief explanation of each.

The subject and content of your website
The popularity of your website.
The Size and usability of you website.

The amount of money you make for each time someone clicks a link on your website depends on how much people are bidding for that term. A lawyer who is looking for clients in a law suit may pay several dollars a click looking for clients. A website about bowling will have apropriate adds on it but the profit the advertisers can make limits how much they are willing to make per click and may only pay 5 to 10 cents a click. So it is obvious that since you get paid a percentage of what Google makes per click then there is going to be a big difference in what what site makes per click than another. Does this mean that you should abandon your current website to go after another? No, I think it is better to go with what you have a passion. Everyone and their brother are going after the big keywords. I have made my money writing web pages about what I have a passion about.

Obviously the more people who visit your site the more money you make with Google Adsense. We will be adding alot of information about website marketing to help you with this. The more people who visit your site the more that see the ads. This is one of the reasons not to drop your site for a site about some legal issue. One of the popular terms that pays extremely well is Mesothelioma. This is rare form of cancer that is usually caused by asbestos. While each click pays well not many people are looking for this information. So which is better a site that gets 10 visitors a day a a click every couple of days that pays a dollar or two or a site with 1000 visitors a day with 40 clicks for 10 cents each.

They say that size does not matter. When it comes to making money with Google Adsense it does. The more content on your site the more money you make. This works two ways. The more content pages on you site the more different pages people can find when search for the information you offer.  Then if your site is well planned so that it is easy for them to find all the information on your site then 1000 visitors can be 10,000 page views. There is only so much content you can add about a subject like Mesothelioma. Now your content rich site that may only brink in 10 cents per click sound more exciting when you are talking 400 clicks.

I was blessed in that when Google first started Adsense I already had two large websites that got a reasonable amount of traffic. Most people can not expect $50 plus when they first start. I have spent the last two plus years adding content and increasing my income. If you have a brand new website it may take a couple of months to start seeing it show up in search engines and beginning to see traffic. But the nice thing is that once you start making money with Google Adsense then with every page you build you are working to increase your income. I love it that now if I want to take a week off I make the same money as I do when I work. I am not working to keep an income. My income comes automatically. I am working to increase it every time I add content to my site.

So I wish you a very profitable future with your website. I will constantly be adding information to the site to help you build quality content pages and information on how to make your website popular in the search engines. Hopefully some of you will send in information that will help both you and me in our quest.
