How To Make Money With AdSense

Filed Under (AdSense optimization tips) by shaners on 15-11-2008

Its been a while since the last post. The main reason for this is because I have been focusing on How to make money with adsense. By creating AdSense websites or in this case wordpress adsense mini sites.

While I do understand that this topic of making money with adsense is incredibly overdone and over blogged. I figured I’d ad my two cents to making money with adsense.

First off what I am going to confess to here is that I am somewhat of a lazy blogger, by that I mean that I really dont want to have to figure it out and try to uncover some underlying secret to making money blogging using adsense as a business model. WHY because there really aren’t any secrets.

And anyone who tells you that they have found the secret is lying to you or trying to sell you something.

It’s really just choosing high paying AdSense keywords and niches and then doing it. You can read about it all day but until you start doing it you wont figure out what works and what doesn’t

SO what I am going to do here is provide you with the sources of information I use when planning an adsense niche blog and how I go about it and how it has been working out for me.

So what have I been doing exactly to make money with adsense and has it been working.

My main focus has been creating adsense mini sites (wordpress blogs). I’m not going after creating authority blogs and trying to be the expert ( I’m not an attention wh0re :-P). Nor am I going out and asking for piles of backlinks in the hopes of propelling myself to the top of the charts.

What I am doing is using micro niche finder to locate high paying adsense keywords choosing a keyword and then buying a domain name using that keyword.

High paying Adsense keyword niche

Sorry I’m not giving you the niche I chose here, Im sure you understand why !!

So to put it simply;

  1. I am targeting very specific keywords.
  2. finding blog niches around the keyword
  3. Buying that domain name where I can.
  4. Creating content to target that keyword
  5. Using adsense to monetize the posts.

Recently Garry Conn has been gushing out some great tips and Ideas to help you make money with adsense. Here are just a few to whet your appetite. Ive been reading Garry for over a year now and have been doing what he is writing about and all I can say is his methods for nailing down and creating adsense blogs work.

How I can make more money with AdSense

The other thing I wanted to know and verify for myself was Ad placements and are there AdSense case studies talking about Google adsense ad placements. The reason being was that I wanted to know for myself If I was on the right track with what I was doing.

Cath Lawson has some great tips inclidung links to Adsense case studies. Post title: 3 ways to increase your google adsense revenue

The next area I was curious about was Am I on the right track about optimizing my posts for Adsense So I reffered to Grizz’s blog.

One of my more favoured make money blogging blogs is Grizz over at make money online for beginners. Hes got real in the trenches content and usually pulls no punches. This post AdSense optimization tips I am sure you’ll find helpful along with some or most of the other content.

So using basically these three sources, my own imagination and a template that garry conn released I set out to see if this will work. What I did was set a seperate AdSense Account. Yeah I am that dumb, like I said I am lazy and like things fast and easy. Remember I said I was going for a buck a day on the new blog.

So Okay I didnt get a buck a day but I also haven’t been doing anything with it either. What I did was find a keyword bought that domain name used google alerts to find relevant content created 8 posts and went live and let it ride at that as a test bed.

As for the template I am using. And another reason why this post is or was along time coming was I wanted to test this theme that Garry Conn and David Cooley (cyber coder) concocted. Make money online by building profitable niche blogs

Yeah but what about getting the blog indexed, if you’re on my list you already know how I go about getting my blogs indexed in 24hrs. Along those lines Aaron Abber has a few great vids detailing how he got his blog Fun Home Theater indexed in like 19 hr.

Hope this post about how to make money with AdSense was useful.

  1. Hi Shane - Thanks for the link. Definitely try that Adsense code of Al Carlton’s - it helps. And watch out for price matching from Adsense.

    I just added two blogspot blogs and Adsense has started paying me a fifth of what they were, on the blogs I already have. I’m going to remove it from the new ones for a while.

    I’m glad you mentioned Griz’s article. I’ve been getting some great tips from him too. I don’t know if you read it but he has a great article on his beginners site. Just go to the beginners site and type “credit cards” in the search box.

    Now I’m off to check out that micro-niche finder you mentioned.


  2. Hey Cath, thanks for popping by. Ive noticed the smart pricing hits as well and If I remember correctly Mark Mason has a post about smart pricing and its woes as well. Maybe I’ll do an update or a post about smart pricing. Grizz does have some great information about adsense optimization, I spend a fair amount of time there and its worth the while reading it.
