Success with AdSense

One cannot seem to venture on the net these days without hearing excited talk about using AdSense, an advertising program by Google, to make money on their website. AdSense has definitely proved to be a great gizmo for lots of webmasters & bloggers, & limitless stories exist of people designing web-sites that earn them some serious dough.

However, people aspiring to achieve financial independence through AdSense often miss the fact that earning a three to eight figure income online will not, I repeat, will not happen overnight. somebody that's interested in trying out AdSense on their web-site or that has recently started needs to understand the amount of work involved in succeeding with this program.

Why do I say this?

My guess is that about 50 to 75 percent of the people reading this editorial will rarely see their income rise above a few dollars per day, even after months of work; lots of of these people will probably give up in result. lots of in the remaining 25 percent will probably see their income go above give or ten dollars per day, but will always wonder why they don't earn more. In the end, probably less than six percent will eventually generate a 5-plus figure income from AdSense, while everyone else sits & wonders why they cannot manage to earn more.

This is predictable because most people going into AdSense expect that making money will be simple & that it can be done overnight. In reality though, it basically can't. The web-sites that people often hit in their search for "making money with AdSense" are pages where somebody is marketing a product or guide on how to use the program. The owners of these web-sites are a number of the few that have had major success with the program; they often claim that their $19.99 guide to success is "so easy a 6th grader could do it", & that it will "make you thousands within weeks" without consuming much of your time at all.

Unfortunately friends, this is merely a marketing ploy to persuade you to buy their product & make them even richer. The problem here is that when people read this, they are often convinced that they can easily succeed with AdSense on their own, only to soon give up when they realize that it's harder than it looks. If their claims were true, they would all be driving Ferraris right now.

In reality, making a successful web-site that earns substantial income takes time, & even the people claiming it's easy probably spent grueling hours at the computer before succeeding. The key to earning money with a web-site is over following a step-by-step guide or using a program to generate thousands of web-sites with commercials. Yes, these adverts will earn money, but the key to earning a substantial amount of money is having a large flow of traffic on your website; the key to getting these large amounts of visitors does not lie in a step-by-step guide lasting an hour, but hard work that will last for hours, days, months, perhaps even years for some, depending on how high you have set your goals.

generating traffic on your web-site first involves writing & continuously updating content that people will be interested in reading. It involves writing articles & submitting them to tens, even hundreds, of directories that will link back to your web-site (this further increases your page rank on Google & generates more visitors). It involves marketing & exposing your web-site across the net to gain even more visitors.

Finally, it involves optimizing your page to result in more visitors & more clicks on adverts that generate you money. Yeah, doesn't sound like something a 6th grader would do, does it? Completing these tasks is essential to walking a well-known web-site that generates a decent income, & doing them takes time. Writing this editorial alone took me at least a half-hour, & I write limitless articles for various blogs. That does not include the time it will take me to publish this editorial to various directories, or the time I will spend optimizing my web-sites & publicizing them.

So yes, walking a web-site that successfully utilizes AdSense is certainly possible, if you are willing to commit to it. If you are prepared to commit a considerable amount of time to fine-tuning your web-site & publicizing it, you will eventually see a decent income generated by your commercials. For now, I guess they can only look forward to the day that they can earn enough overnight to buy a Lamborghini.
