How to make money with google adsense: A Journey

Earning Money Online By Climbing The SERPS

August 9th, 2009

I have totally neglected this blog over the last couple of weeks due to the fact that I have been working very hard on sites with my new partner. We’ve to get 9 niche sites up in the last couple of weeks which is pretty cool, I think if we can to keep this pace up we should be making good money in 6 months time. Obviously I’ve also got my own sites that I’ve been working since I joined the Keyword Academy 4 months ago ticking alone in the background. I’ll be doing the occasional spot of link building to my own sites but the vast majority of my efforts will be going into the new sites.

I have to say, having someone do the content for the niche sites really allows me to focus and concentrate on the things that need to be done. My problem since I started trying to earn money with Google is getting sidetracked all too easily because their is just so much you need to do in the Make Money Online game if you want to succeed.

Joining the Keyword Academy and following the structure they set out has really helped along with learning to use Excel spreadsheets to organize my work. But having someone else to share the burden of work has been excellent, I suppose I’m starting to understand why serious Internet Marketers get so excited about outsourcing their work to other people and its something that I can see myself going a tonne in the future to make things easier.

Anyway I thought I would take ten minutes tonight to have a look and see how this site was doing in the Google search engine results pages. I’ve also been having a look at my statcounter traffic stats to see where my visitors have been coming from and trying to figure out a way to boost my traffic up a notch.

Google Traffic To Adsense Make Money Online

At the moment we’re getting about 35 unique visitors a day to this site which isn’t too bad considering I haven’t been promoting it very vigorously at all. I put the reason it has been moving up the Google search engine results pages down to the fact that it is starting to age more than because I have letting loose on it with my special ninja SEO skills.

From looking at the keyword analysis on statcounter and can see that I’m starting to rank for a reasonable number of longtail keywords related to earning money online and how to earn money with Adsense. We’re sitting at 8th to 15th in the SERPS for the following keywords:

  • earn money with google
  • adsense make money
  • how to make money with adsense
  • earn money from google
  • earn money with adsense
  • earning money online
  • adsense money

Now, I run this site more as a small personal project for fun rather than as a cash machine. Perhaps in the future if I can really start to rank well for some big money keywords I might try to monetize the blog in some way but for now its my little experiment. For the moment I’d really just like to start climbing the SERPS for the personal satisfaction, if I could get into the top 5 positions for a few of the keywords then I’d feel like I have accomplished something pretty cool for a newbie to the world of earning money online.

Plan Of Action For This Site

I suppose if I want to make progress I am going to have to make a plan of action. Like I said I’m busy with other money making projects at the moment so I’m have to limit myself to about an hour a week on this blog which means I won’t be able to post much due to time constraints. I’m going to use all the time I have available to start getting quality backlinks from all available sources with anchor text that matches the keywords I am targeting.

A Word On Anchor Text

You should know that the anchor text used in the backlinks that link to your site is extremely important in how well you rank in Google and what keywords you rank for. Google uses the anchor text to try and figure out what your site is about so make sure you manipulate this fact to your advantage by getting people who link to your site to use relevant anchor text.

What Will I Do To Get Backlinks

I haven’t done much to publicize this blog since I set it up so there are plenty of things I can do to get extra backlinks. I’ll write a few articles for the likes of ezinearticles.com and maybe do a couple of hub pages. More importantly I’m going to try and find some friends in the earn money online niche who are interested in a link exchange. This is a quick and easy way of getting backlinks that won’t take up too much of my precious time.

Adsense Make Money Online Needs Your Help

Like I said time is short and I need links to get this baby up to the top of Google so if you have a website that deals with any topics that are a vague match for this blog it would be great if you could throw a link with some nice relevant anchor text my way. If you email me and tell me about the link I’ll repay you with a link from elsewhere, I would greatly appreciate any help!

That’s all for this time, hopefully the next time I post I will have built up a few quality backlinks and will be moving in the right direction in the search engines.

Earn Money Online Results For July 2009

August 2nd, 2009

As you know I’m following the keyword academy to try and earn money online and if you’ve been following my results you’ll know I’ve been making some progress with my efforts making $400 dollars last month. You’ll also know I had my best site deindexed by Google at the beginning of last month which felt like a major set back to me at the time, I was bracing myself to take a drop in earnings for the month but thankfully my fears were unfounded. I actually pulled around $420 in July which I’m very happy with considering I had the deindexing debacle to make up for. If I can make over £500 in August I’ll feel like things are back on track.

July was the first time that I seriously tried to earn money online with a method other than Adsense. I put amazon widgets and a related affiliate program on a site that was starting to see an average of about 150 page views a day. The result was $70 from Amazon and $60 from the other stuff, not great money but better than a kick in the chanks.

I’ve been reading Ben’s make money online blog quite a bit recently and quite frankly the boy is making me sick. The amount of work he manages to put in and the content he gets up in such a short space of time leaves me speechless. I suggest that you check out his writing if you are at interested in making money but be warned, he’s a machine and will probably make you feel like a failure :)

Interesting News In My Quest To Earn Money Online

I’ve joined up with a partner to help make this earning money online game a whole lot easier. My problem with this shooting match has always been the writing of the content and my new partner who has great writing skills can pump out content quicker than I can get it on the sites so I think we might be able to build a web empire in record time. We’re just getting started but already things seem to be going great, 4 sites up and 10 more domain names in easy to conquer niches have been purchased. If we can get a few sites up a week with all the promotion taken care of at the same time I can our online earnings growing rapidly in the right direction.

Monetize Blog – An Update

I wrote a post a while a go with the title Monetize Blog with the intention of trying to rank highly in Google for this term. On my last update I had reached 9th on the Google SERPS without much work. I’ve since gotten a couple more backlinks to the page but my ranking has dropped down to 22nd for the moment but I’m going to keep at it to see how things go in this little SEO experiment.

Anyway, back to work.
