It seems as though making
money with google adsense
is the first line of attack for
many who wish to make
money online. And you can
make money with google
adsense. I know people
here on hubpages who
make money with google
adsense. In fact - I make
money with google
adsense.
But - here's the rub if you
are new to making money
online and have been sold
on the idea of doing so
using this method of
income:
You need thousands and
thousands of page views to
make a reasonable income
from this, no matter which
niche/keyword or subject
you are choosing to write
in. According to Paul
Deeds, the General
manager here at hubpages,
typical adsense earnings are
between $2-$5 per 1,000
page impressions, so -
taking an average of $3.50
per 1,000 page views, this
will give you an idea of the
levels of traffic you need to
be able to generate to earn
whatever your goal is.
This is an example - bearing
in mind that hubpages take
40% of the page
impressions your pages
generate. As far as I am
concerned - especially if
you are new to this - this is
an excellent deal for you,
because there is an awful
lot of technical stuff you
do not need to worry
about.
So - if your goal is $30 per
day for instance - you need
to generate approximately
14,000 page views a day.
Here is the maths:
14,000 x 60% (your
impressions) = 8,400
8,400 @ $3.5 per 1,000 = $
29.40
If you are new to
hubpages, or have been
here a little while have
some idea of how much
traffic you get to your
hubpages - this should give
an idea of where you need
to be to generate the
income you are hoping for.
Of course - this varies from
subject to subject and clicks
on high paying financial
subjects pay more than
recipes, but the traffic is
harder to generate.
On the whole - and this is
not always the case -
search engine traffic
converts best into google
adsense clicks. But - there is
no hard and fast rule to
this - and google can
change the rules or your
click values whenever they
wish. The process is 100%
completely opaque and
you have absolutely zero
control over the process.
You must rely 100% entirely
on google telling you how
many clicks you received
and rely absolutely 100%
on them to pay you a fair
proportion of what the
customer paid.
Google can can cancel your
account for any reason
they see fit - without giving
you a reason or
explanation and you are
powerless to do anything
about it. Occasionally you
can ask to have a review
done and get the account
re-instated. This is not
unusual and all the other
online affiliate programs
are similarly opaque. You
could well wake up one
morning and discover that
your ebay affiliate account
has been canceled for no
reason or that Amazon no
longer accepts you in their
program because North
Carolina now wishes to
claim sales taxes from all
sales made by affiliates in
the state.
These are part and parcel
of the hazards of earning a
living online or making
money blogging. My best
advice to you is to diversify.
Have as many different
sources of traffic as
possible and have as many
different affiliate programs
as possible in as many
different niches as possible.
Do not rely on any single
source of traffic or income.
In this case becoming a
"Jack of all Trades," is far
safer than becoming a
Master of One. Because
you could turn around and
discover it gone.
Here are some resources to
help you in your quest to
get that traffic. The
absolute best way to
generate search engine
traffic is to create a lot of
incoming links to your
pages. These are some of
the tools I use and some of
the affiliate programs I can
recommend.
