You keep hearing about all these people making a fortune on
AdSense. But have you ever met one of them? Same here;
never.
I’ve bought ebooks promising overnight success, but
never made the big bucks. Then I realized that making money
from AdSense is a lot like farming. Some crops (keywords)
yield a higher price than others and the more fields you
have planted, the better your chances.
Of course, your “field” is a website that can
be had for next to nothing so even small profits are pretty
much all profit. Btw – I’m not making a fortune
but I make an average of $3.50 per day; about $105 a month,
per site.
I’ll show you exactly how I did it, step-by-step.
First, if you don't already have one, sign up for a free
Adsense account at http://www.google.com/adsense. But do
NOT get your ad code yet. I have some tips that can triple
your response rates - and income.
Second, if you want killer free information about your
visitors and some really nice metrics information, get your
free Google Analytics account at
http://www.google.com/analytics/.
Third, sign up with http://www.WhyParkWeb.com or a similar
service. Just be sure to pick one that can create content
rich, search engine optimized sites for you automatically.
That’s how you make your AdSense money. When I
registered for this service it was $99 and would let you
have 100 automatically created websites – forever,
with no additional fees.
Now here are some tips from a 9 year veteran search engine
optimization specialist that will put your sites over the
top! Let's do this by the numbers...
#1 Find the best keywords
Google gets more searches than any other search engine so
let’s peek into their database. Check out
https://adwords.google.com/select/KeywordToolExternal and
type in any keyword or phrase you can think of that you
think your target audience is looking for.
Try to use specific keyword phrases whenever possible. If
you have a web-page that deals with floral delivery,
instead of “flowers”, which has 233,000,000
competing pages on Google, try “send flowers”,
which has 1/10th the number of competing pages. Better yet,
think like people speak (I.E./ I’m sending flowers to
my mom.) As it turns out, a lot more people are searching
for “sending flowers” than are searching
“send flowers” and – here’s the
best part – “sending flowers” has less
than 1% of the competing web-pages as the search term we
started with, “flowers”. Now that’s
impressive! You have an advantage over about 99.5% of your
competitors with just this tip.
#2 Write a killer title Google loves
Take your most important specific and general keyword
phrases and put them together, specific first; general
second. Let's use "sending flowers" and "flowers". Now
separate the keywords or phrases by a pipe (that vertical
key over the Enter/Return key). We now have "sending
flowers | flowers". Now go back and grab one or two more
relevant keywords like "wedding flowers" and "Mothers Day"
and combine them like this "sending flowers | flowers for
weddings, Mothers Day and more".
Now you've covered all your bases and build a fantastic
keyword rich title that won't look like keyword spamming.
You can also change the Mothers Day to Valentines Day,
Easter, as needed.
#3 Write a META description that gets you noticed
This is important. Not only can this tip alone get you
ahead of most competitors, but it's also what readers see
of your site before they decide to visit. You need to write
something for people, but that search engines will like.
Don't worry. It's a lot easier than it sounds.
Take all of your keywords and line them up in order of
importance. Since "sending flowers" gets more searches than
any other, let's start there and use the same logic for the
rest. Now we have, in order, "sending flowers", "flowers",
"wedding flowers", and "Mothers Day." Now improve your
keyword prominence (relevance based on position) by using
your best keyword in the beginning of the description:
"Sending flowers has never been easier. Here you will find
inside tips on the least expensive ways to send the
freshest wedding flowers, Mothers Day arrangements or
whatever else you need.”
We used all of our keywords without overloading the text
and broke it up a little by adding some detail. It works
great! Just try to keep the description at or under 250
characters (including spaces).
#4 Add great content
Why Park does 99.9% of the work for you. All you have to do
is enter your keywords into the article finder provided by
the "Research Your Keywords" link (located beside the
keywords box.)
Without using any imagination at all, I found 172 articles
in a few seconds...
sending flowers - 5 flowers - 151 wedding flowers - 16
Total Articles: 172
Add "roses" and get another 59! That's 231 articles in 10
seconds. You get the idea - more general related keywords
can take you over the top and give you a huge, content-rich
search engine friendly site, in seconds!
#5 Use the best-pulling AdSense ad style and color
combination
My click-through rate (CTR) tripled when I switched to this
format.
Select ad size 336 x 280. If that's too big, try 300 x 250.
And try to make your ad border and ad background colors the
same as your Website's background color. It helps it blend
in and take away some of the "advertisement" feel. It's
also usually best to go with the standard blue hyperlink
color for the actual links.
#6 Get submitted to major search engines fast and free
I use this place all the time. They submit your site to 40
search engines instantly, for free
