how to make money with adsense

If you are trying to make money online then there is one thing in particular that you need to know before you get started and that is the importance of Google in your efforts to succeed. When people talk about making money online what they are pretty much always talking about is trying to make money with Google. How can this be true I hear you shout incredulously? Well, whether we like it or not Google runs a large portion of the Internet. Their search engine accounts for over 70% of all the searches done in the USA and a massive 87% in the UK. This means that if you want to make money online you are going to have to learn to love Google, and I know that’s not always very easy for various reasons which I will go into in a future post.

We have to take advantage of the fact that Google has a virtual monopoly on the search market by building our sites in a manner that Google likes to encourage it to put us closer to the top of the SERPs. You can go this in two ways, the first is the black hat method which attempts to trick the Google algorithm into believing our site is more relevant and important than it is. I don’t recommend taking this course of action if you want to be making money online over the long haul because the people working for Google are pretty clever and if you can’t keep ahead of the game they are going to catch you eventually and punish you for your insubordination

The way most professionals approach search engine optimization is generally from a white hat perspective with a little bit of gray thrown in for good measure. In an ideal world we would be able to follow the Google guidelines for getting sites ranked better and the best site would win. Unfortunately, in the real world this doesn’t work because no one else is playing by the rules, so we have to bend them a little ourselves if we are to keep up.

Regardless of how you do it, making Google love your sites is the key to getting the traffic which in turns puts the moneys in your account.

I’m no expert at making money online but I reckon I’ve learned a few things over the last few months trawling the web looking for the key to riches.

The most important thing I’ve come to realize is that there are no keys to riches, which is funny really because all the “Internet Marketing Gurus” spend their days selling us books which supposedly contain these non-existent keys.

Of course the gurus will harp on constantly about the secrets of making money online as if they know something no one else does. You’ll part with $47 time and again for a useless pdf that contains nothing but empty waffle. If your a total newbie you’ll think you’ve learned something of value and you’ll probably put it into practice hoping for instant riches.

You be slightly pissed off when you realize that the guru’s system isn’t going to make you more than a few peanuts for your hours of hard labor but you’ll suck it up and move on to the next pretender who promises that his new book is all you need for the success you desire. One day on the future after you’ve spend $100s if not $1000s you’ll decide that its impossible to make money online and that anyone that says otherwise is a liar and an idiot.

Not to worry though because for every person like you that gives up on the dream there will be two more along to take your place to throw their money away.

Well I’m here to tell you that the vast majority of the Internet Marketers do a have a filthy little secret and it one that they’ll never be revealing in a $47 e-book. Its a secret that anyone who’s been around this scam for a while eventually starts to realize if they haven’t given up in despair.

Most of the so-called “gurus” make all their money from telling you how to make money online. Many of the cocks selling make money online books wouldn’t have a fucking clue where to start if they had to make their Internet riches the hard way.

I was one of these people trying in vain to find the secret keys to Internet wealth. Thankfully didn’t spend too much money on the crappy products because I’m a tight Scottish Bastard and am naturally skeptical about get rich quick schemes. If you’re reading this blog you’re probably in the same position yourself. Lets be honest, why in gods name would anyone be reading my inane ramblings if they weren’t trying unsuccessfully to make money online.

But I believe I’m starting to see the light as far as making money online goes. There are secrets involved I suppose but not many people talk about what’s required because it involves an unpleasant thought. The secret is persistent hard work, focused in your chosen direction.

There are many ways to make money online, find one that suits your personality and pour your soul into it consistently for 6 months and see where it gets you. Stop reading about every new method from the blood sucking Internet Marketing pricks, you don’t need them.

Remove the bookmark in your browser for the Warrior forum and never visit the place again….I’M FUCKING SEROUS! The warrior forum if ground zero for the “Gurus”. Sure there is occasionally a morsel of half decent information, but you’ll have to give most of the posters $27 if you want them to finish their thoughts and many of their latest e books will say pretty much the same thing as all the other ones you’ve read.

Find the less well known places on the web that disseminate quality information for free and start educating yourself in Search Engine Optimization techniques. When you learn to get the traffic the money will follow!
