42 Ways to Make More Money With Adsense
- Remember: Adsense doesn't make you money; traffic makes you money
- Write posts that link to good content on higher-ranked sites in your niche. If your traffic is low, click on those links yourself - webmasters will take notice.
- Post on forums in your niche and add your site to your signature
- Submit articles to article directories
- Use Technorati Tags
- Submit your best articles to Digg and Del.icio.us
- Comment on other blogs with similar themes to yours
- Become a regular on several similarly-themed blogs you like
- Use Google Sitemaps
- Write about well-known people in your niche
- Use a blogroll, but only add sites that you would really recommend. Less is more.
- Read Problogger
- Remember: Good content + good advertising = traffic
- Choose a niche you're passionate about
- Post/write an article/add content every day (update: or don't)
- Make your content unique and useful
- Be timely: break news, comment on new information, become a valuable source of interesting new stuff
- Be yourself. If you're funny, be funny; if you're not, don't try to be. Be confident that your personality will draw like-minded readers.
- If you can't think of anything interesting to post about, find something interesting to post about.
- If you can't find anything interesting to post about, keep looking.
- You just read something interesting that has nothing to do with your site's theme. Find a way to make it relevant. Use it as an example or integrate it into a story. Use it.
- Read Copyblogger
- Remember: Traffic + Adsense = Money - So don't get kicked out
- Read the Adsense TOS and don't break it
- While you're at it, RTFM
- Do NOT encourage readers to click Adsense ads
- If you're placing a picture specifically to subtly draw attention to Adsense Ads, make sure the ads are clearly distinguished from the image (borders or a line between the two)
- If you're unsure if your ads comply with the Adsense TOS, ask them for a review
- Better yet, design your ad concept on a hidden page and have Google review it first
- Remember: Traffic + Adsense optimization = More Money
- Study the Google Heat map
- Place site-relevant pictures near your ads
- Color images are often better than black-and-white
- Animations are lame
- Integrate your ads with your site design
- Place ads between blog posts
- Place ads in blog posts
- Consider borderless Adsense ads
- Use wide ad formats
- Be Patient: Time, trial and error are what you need to succeed
- Give your Adsense implementation a few weeks (at least) before drawing any conclusions
- Use channels. You are going to want to know which ads are being clicked and which aren't.
