A Simpler Way to Make Money on Blogs Using Adsense

Blogging is the easiest and cheapest if not free start-up business models on the web.

Maintaining blog can be through putting up affiliate links and of course the most common popular contextual advertisement program – Google Adsense.

There are many ad programs on the net, but we’ll focus on Adsense here.

Adsense is a program owned by Google. It was made for website owners to make money by hosting other business ads on their sites related to your side there and topics post. It is called contextual advertising because the ads being shown are related to your site content.

Ex. Your blog about topics about saving money then Adsense will show discount coupons, online freebies and other related ads on your site.

How can you make money?

When someone clinks on the ad by shown, Google pays you the amount the advertisers (other site owner who pays Google to show their ads) and the payment is varied depending on the ad being click (they call it click-through) and the site impression and so on (cpm, etc…)

So what’s the tip? Let’s start with the preliminaries:

• Start posting to your blog, make it daily or at least four times a week.
  Stick with your topic (the one that you have knowledge of or just a little idea) and make your post interesting and engaging as possible so that you will attract readers.


• If you can’t write have someone write for you if you think that you’re article is not that good may it be your friend, bro, sis or anyone you can request. But I strongly advise not to hire someone to write for you when you’re just starting your blog, you blog because you want to make money not to lose it.


• Your blog doesn’t need to be professional, although it will help much if it is, they said blog are meant to be informal so casual or conversational writing will do.


• Use your blog address as your signature in emails, when you post and visit forums and other social networking sites. This is a great way to let people know and visit your blog.

Ex. of signature:

My Name
My Site (www.ernanbaldomero.com)

• Share your link to the people you know in the real-world and the cyberspace, during traffic to your blog means more people will click your ads.


• Submit site to search engines such as Yahoo, Google, Alexa, Ask and try to learn more on search engine optimization (SEO), it will help your search ranking whenever makes your blog easier to access and when someone search for something related to your blog.


• Use meta tags and special keywords/tags on each post. Use keyword good keyword rich content so that it will work in search engines.


• Build links of your blog on other websites. These comes submitting articles to other blog networks or article directory related to your post (in this case you’ll have to make a professional article to be accepted) where you promote your website link. Content is king as always they said because by having good page ranking sites link to your blog will also share their page rank to yours.


• Use RSS. Really simple syndication that simply means someone can syndicate your blog and get its fresh content even visitng your site, but can read your post in search engine sites.


• Do the Ping. Pinging search engines about your blog will also raise your search engine ranking and this is absolutely free. To those using wordpress like I do, you don’t have to manually add your URL to site directories. Just add your ping address in your site and you good to go.

Remember the basics thing that to have a successful Adsense earnings is to have more traffic in the sense that real people will visit your sites not autosurf, or link exchange programs. I strongly advise not to use autosurf programs because it will not help increase your adsense earnings but may also result to the suspension of your account. Refer to your Adsense Policy for more compare details.

Must rule: do not click your own ad.
