SEO For Google AdSense
This morning, I met up with a Google AdSense Optimizer as part of Google's AdSense in Your City tour. The gist of the tour is to give AdSense adopters a 20-minute, one-on-one meeting with a member of the Google AdSense team. From there, you talk about your site(s), ask any questions you may have upfront, and basically walk away with site-catered professional recommendations straight from those who know AdSense the best.Google Adsense is one of the best ways to make money from your site. You might not become a millionaire with your Adsense monetized properties but with some luck, and above all knowledge about what works with Adsense sites and what doesn't, this could become a stable source of income for you.
If you do everything properly but you don't see much in your Adsense account, don't get desperate. The reasons for poor Adsense income can be numerous. Try to find them and correct the issues (i.e. wrong niche, bad placement of ads, inadequate ad sizes, types, and colors, etc.) If this doesn't help, consider the numerous Google Adsense alternatives. In general, they bring less revenue than Adsense but who knows, for your site it might be just the opposite. Just keep on trying and sooner or later you will make it!
How much you will make with Google Adsense depends on many factors. Some of them are outside your control - i.e. the overall state of the economy or what advertisers Google has managed to attract. However, there are also many factors within your control. For instance, obviously, if you have one site with 10 pages only you will make thousands of times less than if you have 10 sites with thousands of pages. Basically, all equal, the more content you have, the more you will make.
Cyrus,
Good stuff. I have NEVER clicked on an Adsense ad, although I have some sites with Adsense. The "shove them down your throat" mentality of most sites just doesn't make sense.
