Has AdSense had its Day?

There are some advertising schemes that are similar in format to AdSense like Chitika and Yahoo’s own contextual advertising program. There are now many more established income streams for webmasters to use than just AdSense.

So webmasters had more choices. Google no longer had a monopoly on internet marketing. But there were deeper reasons for the persistent rumors surrounding the descent of AdSense.

Recently, Google made some subtle changes to its Adwords program that made it difficult to use the arbitrage system of making money. The changes made it difficult for certain publishers to buy low and send visitors to more lucrative landing pages. Also Google at last started taking some real action against garbage sites. Tracking them and closing them down when necessary. As information resources these sites were useless and they damaged the overall function of Google as well as all other good search engines.

But these changes sparked the rumblings of discontent that has reverberated through the web community. A lot of publishers were not pleased. But does this mean that these are the last days of AdSense?

No, it doesn’t.

Google’s AdSense is not dead, nor is it dying. However, it is changing and adapting to its surroundings. It is becoming leaner, fitter and stronger to fight off its various competitors. For it to change for the better it had to shed the excess weight it was carrying in the form of junk information sites.

Now it seems that the best way to truly benefit long term with AdSense is to create good, original, content-rich websites. Google wants to bolster its core; it wants to make its search engine stronger. And for it to do so it needs good content, content that can only be put together by the web creating community. Google has an obligation not to upset this community too much but it also has an obligation to the billions of people that use its search engine.

But Google hasn’t upset the large majority of webmasters. The only ones that are really talking about the last days of Google are those that are trying to cut corners. Those that are involved in get rich quick schemes.

If you are thinking of cultivating a long term future with AdSense, forget those all too familiar looking websites promising you instant AdSense riches. The fact is there is no such thing. However, there are long term AdSense riches to be had. If you want to make the most out of AdSense, you have to try and view it as a business and treat it accordingly. You have to research, plan and organize your venture. But most importantly, you have to be persistent and patient.

The Importance of Google AdSense

If Adsense collapses, Google collapses. It is one part of the Google trinity that holds the Google Empire together. Firstly, there is the powerful and influential search engine. This part acts as the core, the central pillar that holds everything together. It has become extremely popular because it is extremely good. It is fast, efficient and reliable.

Secondly, there is Adwords, the money making part of the site. It was only natural the Google would take advantage of the popularity of its search engine through advertising. Adwords gave anyone who had the financial clout the ability to advertise their site on the first few pages of related search queries. It enabled businesses, publishers and marketers the ability to skip the arduous process of search engine optimization (SEO).

Thirdly, there is the last of Google’s trinity, Adsense. As a result of the popularity of Adwords and to accommodate the amount of advertising that they had to deal with Google cleverly found a way to hire webmasters to do some of their advertising for them.

They realized that there was money to be made in general internet traffic and they found a way to capitalize on it.

Adsense was a runaway success but it had problems. Advertisers complained about click fraud, this continues to be a thorn in Google’s side. Also Google’s Adsense was beginning to get some serious competition. Amazon associates continues to grow in range and prominence. And has proved to be exceptionally lucrative for the few webmasters who have cleverly chosen the right products and embarked on the right marketing strategy.

Web-Space and Making Money with Google AdSense

Why buy your own web-space when you can easily start your own blog for free with Google’s Blogger or WordPress or LiveJournal? Why waste money on a webhosting package when you can start making money with Google AdSense for free almost at once?

Blogger is not bad but it has its limitations. I use blogger when I can, but it’s a risky affair. Most of my web properties are hosted on web-space provided by webhosting companies. But what are my reasons why do I choose to buy web-space?

Well, the main reason why, is because it gives my internet business security. I know that as long as I am paying for the webhosting service, everything will run just fine (as long as it is with a reputable webhosting company) . There’s no risk that my account might suddenly get terminated, there’s no risk that the company hosting my website might suddenly go bankrupt.

Also owning your own web-space gives you that professional edge. It shows the world that you mean business. Your visitors are more likely to take you more seriously because you’re likely have your own domain name which signifies that your site must be quite serious (though this isn’t always the case).

But most importantly owning your own web-space means that you can create anything you want on it. It gives you the creative freedom to literally blow your competition out of the water. This is an important factor in a world that is so saturated, so full of unoriginal and rehashed material. It is often very difficult to stand out. On a free platform you can’t experiment as much, within your own web-space you can do whatever you wish (as long as you have the technical skills).

So you can see that there are many benefits in owning your own web space. It is worth the small investment and if you put together a decent AdSense site you will easily make recoup the money back a thousand-fold.

Domain names and making Money with Google AdSense

As stated in the previous post the basic elements required to put together a good AdSense site is nothing more than a domain name, web space and a website (with decent content).

But why pay for a domain name and web space if you can these aspects of a site for free?

Buying your own domain name gives you a lot of potential power. Firstly, owning your own domain name indicates that you mean business. Visitors are more inclined to take you and your website seriously as are the Search Engines. Secondly, your domain name often represents your brand; it tells the world what your site is about at glance. It’s important that you make sure that it’s something you control and own. And thirdly, it is possible to buy domain names that contain your main keywords. This point is very important if you are working on a solid SEO campaign. Domain names are one of the most influential SEO factors that you can control. A domain name rich in keywords can go a long way towards helping you rank well with the Search Engines.

Making money with Google AdSense can be made much easier if you buy the correct domain name. If your AdSense theme is particularly niche, a well-chosen domain name can get you ranked in a space of a few weeks (with very good SEO).

The power of domain names should never be underestimated. It is regarded very highly among the best Search Engines and with good reason. If you spent money on a particular sequence of keywords, you’re unlikely to waste it by putting up unrelated material on the website attached to the name. It happens… but it’s usually very rare.

If you want to give respectability to your AdSense website (or blog) and you want to seriously make money with Google AdSense then it is important you buy a domain name containing quality keywords that properly describes the essence of your website.

Putting together a successful AdSense website (or blog) doesn’t have to cost anything. There are stories of webmasters that have created good quality blogs using platforms such as Google’s Blogger which is free to join and use. But these stories are few and far between. It is extremely difficult to make a success out of something that is given out for free. This is because free material often lacks the polished, professional feel and look that you can get from something that is paid for. More times than not free hosting services forces the user to include unwanted ads on their websites or blogs. Also there’s the more serious prospect that the service may be terminated, revoked or closed down at any moment without warning. Relying solely on free services to put together a serious AdSense project is very risky.

The Harder way to Make Money with Google AdSense

Many new AdSense publishers walk confidently into Google AdSense thinking that they ‘know’ how it works. They wrongly believe that it is a ‘get rich quick scheme’ made for the sole purpose of making quick AdSense cash.

They couldn’t be more further from the truth. You can make a lot of money with Google AdSense, but you can’t do so quickly for a sustained period of time legitimately.

If you start AdSense with that attitude, you will be making the whole AdSense process very difficult for yourself. If you think that making AdSense cash will be easy then you need to erase that thought from your mind.

One of the worse ways to start an AdSense project is to have the wrong expectations of what you think it can it do. If you think that it’s going to make you money quickly… and it doesn’t it can seriously dishearten you and possibly destroy any believe you had in the scheme.

The only way to combat this, is to have a realistic understanding of what AdSense is about and what it can do. And the only way to do this is to try and learn everything you can about Google AdSense. Read articles, websites, PDF’s… even buy books (which can be a great reliable resource for information about the net).

By knowing what AdSense is truly about you can be better prepared for everything that it throws at you. If after you’ve gathered the necessary information you decide that AdSense isn’t for you, then at least you haven’t wasted too much of your time in planning, researching and building a site.

The Hard way to Make Money with Google AdSense

It’s strange how so many new AdSense publishers seem to be looking for the easiest but seem to find hardest way to make AdSense cash. They may not be deliberately looking for the hardest possible way to make money with Google AdSense, but many always seem to find it.

The biggest mistake they commonly make is to assume that they know it all already. They believe all the hogwash touted on the web about how easy AdSense is and they step into the scheme with the same attitude.

AdSense may be easy to understand, easy to join and easy to use but it is very difficult to make a lot of money with the scheme and it is especially difficult if you happen to think that you know it all already.

I have been using AdSense for 4 years now and I’m still learning new things about the scheme. I make good money from the scheme but I can’t assume that I’ll always be making money with Google AdSense. One thing that I have learnt over time is that nothing is predictable about Google AdSense. If after four years I still can’t make assumptions about AdSense then how could a beginner?

The hardest possible way to make with Google AdSense is to think that you have a great AdSense theme. How can you possible know that your AdSense theme is great? How do you know that it’s going to make you money? Have you done any market research? Have you canvassed your prospective visitors?

If you then gamble on your ‘GREAT’ theme by buying a domain name and some web space for your site then you are not only making things harder for yourself but you will also be losing yourself some money. Domain names have to be carefully chosen, they should never be bought on a whim even if it feels inspired.

Before committing yourself to an AdSense project make sure that you’re prepared. Research, plan then… execute.

Ways of Making Money with Google AdSense

There are many strategies that can be used to make money with Google AdSense. The strategy you decide to use can vary depending on various personal and economic factors.

For example, there are ‘quick’ strategies for the more impatient AdSense publisher. These strategies if applied properly can get you on the earning ladder relatively quickly. Unfortunately, these methods tend not to last. Even worse there is the possibility that you might get banned by Google if you happen to practice the more extreme methods of earning AdSense cash too vigorously.

For those new publishers that are a bit more patient there are number of commonly used strategies that can be used to make money with Google AdSense. Most of these strategies involve creating information sites to attract visitors and then applying AdSense ads on them to generate some revenue.

There are two basic strategies that can be used with information sites. There is the:

  • Shallow site approach: Which involves focusing on one small site that gets heavily trafficked pages.
  • Broad site approach: Which involves creating a very large site that get less traffic pages but gets very good combined traffic results.

The shallow site approach can only work if you completely dominate a popular niche. By focusing on an AdSense niche theme you can potentially control all the traffic associated with that topic; which can be a lot.

The broad site approach doesn’t rely so much in you having to corner a niche but works by getting high traffic levels from share volume of pages connected with the site.

In general many webmasters use a combination of both strategies to generate some AdSense income. The strategy you decide to use is up to you. It depends on how much time, patience and money you have. Creating a good shallow AdSense website requires a lot of preparation and patience. You need to isolate a good niche theme (which is no easy task) and you will probably to use some quality software to create a very attractive website.

The broad site approach doesn’t need as much preparation, but creating the required amount of pages to make the strategy work can be very time consuming.
The path you decide to take is up to you…
