Increase Your Adsense Earnings - Profitable "niche"

What is a niche?

Niche is a very specific topic that a publisher would write about. Niche is a focus on popular, reader-demanding keywords. In other words, a niche is something that most people want to know, to read about, to use, and/or to buy.

How do I know which niche to write about?

First, think about your own expertise. Are you an expert in any specific field or subject? Of course, you don't have to be an expert in economics, health, or politics! Something like "How to capture a good picture" can also be a niche if you find that many people are interested in reading about this.

Okay, now that you have come up with a list of what you are good at, you have to know which ones of your talents will produce the most profits. Check symbiotic.com to see whether your talents (prospective niches) are worth writing about or not. In the site I just recomended, you will see the Keyword Search Tool. Write your talent/keyword in the box provided and click submit query. Then wait and see the result which, for example, looks like this:

Data for "digital camera" as a niche

Cost / click = $ 1.24
Clicks / day =20973
Cost / day = $ 26007

This data is of course from successful professonal bloggers, so beginners like us may not have so many clicks per day. However, in this example you can see that if you write about digital camera, the Ads that you display in you blog will accordingly be relevant to digital camera and you will earn around 1.24 USD per click from your ads. Then you can decide whether this niche is worth writing about or not. However, only the good clicks will bring you income; the bad ones won't or only pay you a few cents. What I mean by "good clicks" is that those clicks are made from various IP addresses and with page impressions.

Increase Your Adsense Earnings - Making the best out of Adsense offers

In order to increase your Adsense revenues, you have to understand and use all Adsense offers. These offers include Adsense for content, Adsense for search and Adsense for referrals.

1. Adsense for content
- Ad units : contain either text ads, image ads, or both. The ads are targeted to the content of your page using contextual and placement targeting
- Link units : display a list of topics that are relevant to your page. When users click a topic, they're brought to a page of related ads

With Adsense for content, your revenues are calculated on the basis of Pay Per Click.

2. Adsense for search
It ffers your users site search or web search while earning revenue from ads relevant to their search terms. That means if your readers do some search in the search box of Google provided by adsense and they will be led to a search result page which displays their search result together with some Adsense Ads and if they somehow click on any one of the Adsense ads, you will also get paid by google on the basis of PPC.

3. Referrals
Earn more by referring users to useful products and services provided by Google or Google's partners. When your readers click on the ads and sign up or use the products/services from the ads, Google pays you accordingly.

The best thing is the have all of these Adsense offers in your blog/site. To use all these offers, sign into you adsense account (If you don't have one yet, read my previous blog on "How to start Google Adsense") --> Adsense setup --> Get Ads. Then you will see a list of the 3 offers.

How to start Google Adsense

The easiest and fastest way to make money online is from your blog. Create a specific blog with interesting content called "Niche". A niche is a very specific subject that attracts more and more traffic/visitors to your blog. After creating a blog with a good niche, you can now start making money with your blog with Google Adsense. Google Adsense is a Google's program which, upon the publishers' choice, but mostly pays the blog publishers on the basis of Costs-Per-Click (CPC). That means Google will display Ads on your blog and when visitors view your blog, find any ads attracting and click on the ads, you will get paid! That's it.

Step 1
Create a blog with a good Niche. (If you don't have a blog yet and don't know how to create one, you can watch a video demonstration on how to create a blog at monirath.blogspot.com)

Step 2
Go to Google Adsense and sign up an account there. You need your blog URL (address) to sign up. After you have signed up, wait for an approving e-mail from Google. Google then starts crawling to your site and view your content and if Google finds your content good for its ads (advertisements), you will be sent an e-mail confirming that you have been accepted to Google Adsense program.

Step 3
Okay, now sign into your blog. Then go to Layout --> Page elements --> Add page elements --> Add Google Adsense. After you add Google Adsense, you need to configure it to suit with the available space on your web page. Then choose the blend template because it makes your Google Ads look as if they were your articles too. Why choose blend template? Because most viewers tend not to click on ads if they know it's an advertisement. I don't know why either.

Now, view your blog and see whether the ads fit well in your blog background. It is proved by Google that the best location to display your Google Adsence Ads is between your posts so that they look more or less like your article texts. To do this, go to Layout --> Page Elements --> Click on Edit Blog Posts --> Click on Show Ads between posts.

Step 4
Now that you have Google Ads on your blog, you can expect to earn money from clicks. But, where can you get those clicks? Well, that's not an easy task to complete, though. You might have your own techniques of making your blog popular. My own experience is that I send out personal e-mail and use Yahoo! answer . The first technique doesn't seem to work well since i don't want to bother most of my friends and family with my own business. But, if you're braver than me, do it. It might work better than when i did it. However, the second technique does work! I spend half and hour a day answering question in Yahoo! Answer and leave a link to my blog at the end of my answer. This way, I got many backlinks from Yahoo! And, that's how i get my blog indexed and more traffic.

Warnings!
1. You can NOT write any words to prompt or encourage the viewers to click on any ads! Google will cancel your membership if you do so. You will only get paid if the visitors voluntarily and willingly click on Google ads.
2. Do not attempt to click your blog's ads by yourself or ask anyone to do so for you. Google has a sophisticated detecting system that can trace its members' activities on blogs and ads.

Introduction to Google Adsense

Google Adsense is one of Google's programs which play a role as intermediary among advertisers, publishers, and customers or audience.

- Advertisers are generally companies that wish to advertise their products or services.

-Publishers are bloggers or other website owners that wish to display the advertisers' ads on their blogs/webs and get paid monthly or via PPC (Pay-Per-Click).

-Customers or audience are web or blog readers who may find the ads interesting and are willing to click on the ads.

Google Adsense earns from advertisers and pays to publishers for their web/blog traffic or ads display.

Based on my experience and research, I can recommend that Google AdSense is one of the most popular and effective sources of income online. First, It's simple to use and its terms and conditions are acceptable. Second, It has the most numerous varieties of ads for bloggers to display on their blogs. And last but not least, its payment plan does motivate bloggers or publishers and continue writing and posting more articles.

How much will I earn?

On average, Google pays you between 3 to 10 U.S cents per click. But, it depends on which ads the viewers click on. Some ads even pay you up to 75 USD per click. Yes, that's 75 USD per click!!! But, the thing is that we are not the one to decide which ads to place on our blog. It's Goolge's job to do so. To get higher paid clicks, concentrate on more hightly paid NICHE, about which you can read more in the upcoming posts. This blog you are viewing is actually one of the lowest paid PPC (Pay-Per-Click) blogs. Then, why am I spending so much time with this blog? To share this opportunity with you is my major purpose of creating this blog.
