Since this blog is starting from scratch I think a list of terms and descriptions are called for as a lot of beginners won’t know what I mean when I say things like SEO.
SEO = search engine optimization
The process of ranking your sites number 1 in the search engine results pages.
SERP’s = the search engine results pages
The page Google presents to you when you search for a keyword in the search box.
Keyword = any term or phrase that you are searching for or others are searching for in the search box.
If you have a blog about “cats” then “cat” or “cat” is your main keyword. You want to rank number 1 in the search engines for that keyword in order to get traffic.
Long Tail Keywords = any keywords related to your main keyword.
“Siamese Cats” can be a long tail for your “cats” blog or it could be a main keyword for a “Siamese Cats” blog. “How to Feed Cats” would be a long tail for either blog.
PR = page rank.
A designation used only by Google to assign a value of trust to your pages. This has little relevance in ranking in the serp’s these days but a high PR page can impress people like advertisers or people looking to swap links.
Backlinks = a link pointing to your blog from another site.
The more backlinks you have the better.
Anchored Backlinks = backlinks that use your keyword (main or long tails) in the text portion of the backlink. The term “anchor” refers to the actual text used in the link.

Before I begin let’s clear something up right off the bat. For every thing I tell you to do there are exceptions to the rules depending on your niche/platform and your ability to modify and experiment. Nothing is set in stone but I am going to give you the basic guide to follow. Only you will know how your site is different and you will have to use some of your gray matter to figure out what works best in your situation. My tips will serve to get you started down the right path.
If you have questions - and I know you will - then please use the comments rather than emailing me. This will allow me to answer for everyone’s benefit and save me a lot of time. Also - please give me as much info as you can when asking questions. Don’t ask why your site is getting 2 cent clicks. I will need to know what the niche is, where your traffic is from, how much traffic, what your keywords are etc to make an informed opinion. Please try and include as much relevant info when asking for help.
Rule #1
If you are going to make money with Adsense then you build your site for that purpose. You don’t slap Adsense on an unoptimized site and expect to make much money with it.
Rule #2
Adsense works best when you drive targeted search engine traffic to your site and the visitor clicks an ad targeted to the term that the user found your site with. Or a related term.
ie. John is searching for “Adsense Tips” using a search on Google. He finds your site listed for that term. He visits and at some point he sees an Adsense ad on your site for “Adsense Tips” or “How to make money with Adsense” or “Adsense for beginners” and clicks one of the ads.
That is a targeted click. You will receive the best CPC. (cost per click or in simple terms this is the amount of money Google will pay you for the click) In this case let us say you get paid $0.50 for it.
Now Bob drops in on your site because someone (maybe you if you don’t know any better) stumbled your post on stumbleupon. Bob isn’t looking for anything - he’s just aimlessly surfing the stumble sites. He doesn’t see much that interests him but clicks on an Ad just out of curiosity. He doesn’t convert for the advertiser - why would he (but sometimes it can happen) as he is just checking things out. He spends two seconds on the advertiser’s landing page and leaves.
Bob is an untargeted click. Google will pay you $0.01 for the click.
Do not get hung up on all the variables at work here. Just understand that you want to drive as much targeted traffic to your site and avoid as much untargeted traffic as you can. You want to rank well in the search engines for as many keywords as you can that are related to your niche and you want to avoid driving traffic to your site from untargeted sources. No stumbling, digging, reddit, etc. If others do it you have no control so don’t get in a flap - it happens. Just don’t chase that traffic yourself.
Overall you will get both kinds of traffic - as long as the majority of your clicks come from targeted sources you will average a decent CPC. They will never all be perfect clicks. If the majority of your clicks end up coming from untargeted sources of traffic then eventually you will be smart priced and all you will see will be the 2 cent CPC. If that happens then pull Adsense off the site and leave it off until you can change the traffic source to more targeted visitors.
Now, before you all ask, yes you can get direct traffic from other blogs linking to you or from people bookmarking you. In general these people are interested in your site’s niche and probably have related niches. Whether they are targeted or not is usually not a concern as they will be readers and are not likely to click your ads anyway. You can have a million stumblers show up too as long as they don’t click your ads you will be fine. I am not telling you that you can’t have untargeted traffic - you can - you just don’t want them clicking ads. There are programs available that allow you the option to only show ads to search visitors. If your site has a lot of untargeted visitors then use them. I am too lazy to go find the links but I am sure some of my readers will supply them in the comments. If you are new here then you may as well learn this now - I yak a lot and my friends roll in to do the leg work. I encourage it because it gives them a chance to introduce themselves and they are people you should get to know - they help me, I help them and they will help you. If you have no online friends then make friends with some of mine as they will be your best resource. Just be sure to give as much as you get.
(Don’t be shy - get involved. You will notice by the abundance of comments that I belong to a growing community of like minded folks who all help each other and are far more knowledgable than any other group you will meet online. We were all beginners at one time and we don’t mind passing along our knowledge to others - take advantage of it and pay it forward when you can.)
Rule #3
Do not click your friends ads and discourage them from clicking yours. You will get banned. Google can tell when multiple clicks come from the same IP. It is un-natural and sticks out like a sore thumb. Never ever get involved with click fraud. It is not worth it and yes - you will get caught! Yes you will… you beginners had better listen to me as you are all going to try and think of a way to inflate your clicks. DON”T!!!
Rule #4
A successful Adsense site is a site that doesn’t look like an Adsense site. No splogs. It must contain legit information and serve some purpose other than simply displaying Adsense. It is against the Adsense Terms of Service to create a site for the sole purpose of slapping Adsense on it.
How you create an Adsense site for the purpose of making money with Adsense without looking like you have just created an Adsense site for the sole purpose of making money with Adsense will be discussed in the next post. (say that 5 times fast)
Rule # 5
Everything you think you know about Adsense and SEO that you read about elsewhere is crap - even if it isn’t crap. Just because some dude wrote an ebook on either subject doesn’t mean they know jack. It just means they wrote an ebook. The people you want to listen to rank on top of the search engines and don’t write books about making money online.
They make money online.
They don’t need to make money writing an ebook.
And why should you listen to me?
Because I rank on top of the search engines for just about every “make money online” keyword you can think of. Go look.
and… I’m not selling you anything.
and… I’m just a swell guy!
Why am I telling you this for free? Because I need content in order to rank on top of the search engines for even more terms and It is easy for me to write about stuff I know a lot about. I also know that only 1 in 10 of you will follow my instructions. Only 1 in 100 of you will become adept enough to knock me off my perch and when you can you won’t. You will become an ally and together we will kick more ass in more niches and make even more money. In short I want and need more friends who do what I do so that we can all help each other.
Rule # 6
The best business model I know online is to provide free information for any niche that is dominated by sites that sell the info. By providing free and legit info you will bury the competition - the traffic will come to you. And you pay for it all with… yup - Adsense.
Next post I will talk about how to set up a site, how to structure your posts, how to use adsense on the site and how to get people to click on your ads without violating Google’s terms of service.
In the meantime you should re-read rule number 6 and find a niche that meets that requirement. You can also observe how I structured this post. It is perfectly optimized for the keywords I want traffic for.
Let's get through the considerations that you should think over in order to make sure that you get what you want for your hosting. You want to prefer the web host that is going to offer your requirement as they stand now and where they lead to in the future. Here we go:
1. Make sure you know the different kinds of hosts: shared, collocated, unmanaged dedicated, and managed dedicated. Is your website or blog brand new with small traffic? In case your website or blog is a fresh domain, you won't necessitate the raw power of a dedicated server except your website or blog is resource exhaustive which is able to include: streaming, videos, proxies and also linking to videos too could cause a high load on Apache and the CPU(s).
2. Go for reliability, not just size. Since the host if offering you unlimited and unmetered space, does not mean you be supposed to solely base your judgment on that. What benefit is that account to you when your website or blog is down or the server is overloaded? Investigate how long the hosting business has been working. See if they have lately changed ownership, and if they show positive cash flow. I always use domaintools.com to check the domain create date, ownership and traffic before I buy.
3. The control of completely redundant data centers. If you are taking into consideration doing business with a smaller hosting vendor, make sure that they have sufficient power and connectivity capabilities. Request as to the number of lines the facility has. Do they possess an on-site generator? Does the generator get regular checks and maintenance? What is the usual utilization of the connections available?
4. How experienced is their staff? When the time you need customer service of a technical nature, you want it instantly, right? Observe the availability of their systems administrators. Send them a support ticket and observe how quick they respond.
5. Read other customer's reviews of the hosting services. Same as any business, the hosting merchant is supposed to provide good references.
6. Is the web host flexible? Your needs might change someday. Can you upgrade your web host services later on?
I Recommend YOU To Get Web Hosting Plans for just $4.95/month at Web Hosting Pad. No coupon code needed. Also get more Reliable Web Hosting at a price you can afford.

“Track Adsense Performance with Multiple Channels” - the easiest way to improve your Adsense earning. But, there are still many bloggers who don’t know how to track their Adsense performance with multiple channels. Adsense actually offers two kinds of channels:
URL Channels - We use these to track domain, sub-domain and page-specific Adsense performance. For example, you can track which page in your blog make the highest earning from Adsense by giving each page a specific URL channel.
Custom Channels - We use these to track Adsense ads in different ad units or different ad position. For example, if you have two Adsense ad units in a page, you can track each ad unit by giving each ad unit a specific custom channel.
For those who don’t know how to implement these features in their blogs, I strongly recommend them to read this tutorial on how to optimize your Adsense earning with channels.
Since Adsense Help Centre already provide you such a good tutorial, so it is useless for me to teach you again about these features here. But, do remember that you can only create up to 100 active ad channels at the same time.
Besides, I advise you try to use different color templates every month for the Adsense ads in your blog. You must know that different color templates have different CTR. So, it is better for you to change your Adsense color template frequently until you find a color template with the highest CTR.
Furthermore, you should also try different ad positions in your blog too. Different ad position will come out with different CTR too. So, try every possible ad position until you find the most suitable( high CTR and not-annoying to readers ) one for you.

Link Popularity - Linking Strategy – Website Linking
Link Popularity or link building is the most important criteria in search engines algorithms to get high rankings in major search engines.
However, it’s not important that how many numbers of links are pointing towards your site, but how many quality and related links are pointing towards your site. Search engines give more importance to the sites that has good quality links even they are less in numbers apart from other sites who has thousands of links but worthless and less important.
For Example,
Your site is about “designer shoes”. You searched the net and looked for links which comes from any themed sites. After sometime you got 50 links, but 40 are coming from different theme sites, and they have nothing to do with “designer shoes”. Search Engines wants to see links from related sites and give more importance to them. So when they will check your back links they will find more irrelevant links pointing towards your site then relevant so, they will discount those not related links.
That's why you have to get more related and search engine friendly links pointing to your site.
Always try to link with high Page Rank sites. Page Rank is how google score importance of page. It gives all pages a mark out of ten (10). You can download Google Toolbar from here http://toolbar.google.com/
Following are some examples and methods of generating good links towards your site.
Oneway Links
Oneway links are those links which points directly towards your site and you don’t need to reciprocate links with the site who has given you this link.
There are various methods of getting Oneway links some are written below :
Directory submissions
Article Submission Directories
Buying one way links
Creating blogs and linking them with your site
Link bagging
Creating good content or informative sites so that people link back to you.
Bookmarking sites
Social Media site links
Writing comments on others webblogs
Creating RSS feeds
Replying in online forums of your related niche
Newsletter distribution
Link where your competitors are linking
Reciprocal Link Building
In this type of link building webmasters reciprocate links on each others websites. For example if “A” gives a link to B’s sites, in reply “B” also gives link to “A’s” sites on any of her pages. This is also called link exchange.
Now it’s difficult for you to manually search for link partners of your category, which will give you more weightage in search engine rankings.
There are many reciprocal linking sites are there, where one can get many reciprocal partners for link exchange. I am providing you a list of free reciprocal link exchange sites where you can exchange links with categorized list of link partners.
This also one type of reciprocal link building, but in this case you don’t have to give a link back on your site to your link partner but on any other third party site. For example “A” gives a link to “B” on his page, and for reciprocating “B” posts “A’s” link on “C’s” page.
This method is used for getting link partners and save own site’s page rank.
This is very useful method and many sites provide this service for free, you just have to register and follow their guidelines.
I will guide you through how to get search engine traffic to your site. Getting traffic through search engine optimization on your website is one of the best and free methods. It’s also one of the major and targeted ways of getting online traffic.
For getting search engine traffic and rank in major search engines, first you have to do on page optimization of your pages, in other words creating proper Html structure of your site pages. This is one of the basic and most important techniques in search engine optimization. For optimizing your pages for search engines, the following points are very important.
Website Search Engine Optimization of Your Tags
Optimize three Html tags in
they are:
Title Tag
Meta Description Tag
Meta Keywords Tag
These tags should be present in all of your pages with the targeted keyword in it. You should have to mentions your targeted keyword in them at least once and not more then twice. Please don’t repeat keywords in them as search engine can ban your site for this reason.
For example, if you are optimizing a page for “abdominal exercise”. Your opening HTML Code may look like this:
<strong>Abdominal Exercises</strong> – Tips for fat people abdominal exercises and loose fat”>
abdominal exercises, get fit, loose fat”>
The Other Important Tags
The Header Tags:
Many search engines pay special attention on what you have inside your header tags. For example you should have to write most important headline inside
tag, The second most important in
, and so on.
For above example, your
tag should contain...........
Abdominal exercise for Fat people
This
tag should come very close to your tag.
Search Engine Optimization Of Your Body
The body or the content part:
Try to keep and repeat your targeted keyword in first 200 words of your content.
Try to bold them or underline them whenever needed.
Make Your Website Search Engine Friendly
Don’t use too many flash on your site.
Don’t use JavaScript on your pages.
These languages may look decent in looking of your page but search engine may hinder reading your content.
Even though some search engines like Google are getting better at reading JavaScript code, it’s still best to use simple html.
Validate Your HTML Code
Please read our How To Do W3C Validation Of Your Code to validate your html code.
Don’t Use Frames On Your Website
Search engine crawlers can’t read the content inside your frames. So if you are using them, you are playing with our search engine rankings.
Use Targeted Keywords In Your Internal Hyperlinks
Use your targeted keywords in your site navigation, or whenever you are linking to your internal pages. This will lead to higher page rank for your targeted phrase and page.
For example if you are linking to a “arm exercise” page within your site, instead of using “click here to open the page” use “view arm exercise page here”.
Use Targeted Keywords In Your File Name
When you are naming your pages, it’s important to use targeted keyword in your file name for that page.
For example for “arms exercise” page, instead of using “page2.html” use “arm-exercises.html”.
Using Blog Templates
Today webmasters are using Blog templates to make there niche sites. This format helps them using many utilities of Blog.

How Google Does It? And What is His Benefit?
Google Adwords is Google's advertising programme where websites owners advertise their site and pay for this cause. Let me explain this thing to you. When you search Google.com for any keyword, you see some "Sponsored Links" which appear at the right hand side of the screen, which is, related to the keyword you searching for. Advertisers pay a predetermined amount to Google for every time their ad gets clicked. Now Google gives you opportunity to display these advertise on your site and earn share of revenue from it.

Skyscraper ads (728 Leader Board) also do well in you right site navigation. Try to focus one topic at one page so you will get relevant ads and your CTR will increase.

If you are using adsense on Login protected pages, you can tell Adsense to crawl your content using their Site Authentication Feature.
When I survey bloggers about the methods that they use to make money from their blogs Google’s AdSense is always the number one response. It is a quick and easy way for bloggers of all sizes to display ads that are relevant to their content.
AdSense is a ‘contextual’ advertising program where publishers simply add a piece of code to their blogs that helps Google analyze what your page is about so they can serve ads on that topic. This increases the chances of your readers clicking the ad which increases the chances that you’ll earn something from them.
AdSense also provide a variety of other income streams to bloggers including a site search tool (you make money by people searching your site) and referral tools (where you can make money by recommending Google products).
AdSense is how I earn around 35% of my income as a full time blogger and I would thoroughly recommend it as a way of monetizing a blog - especially for those just starting out.

I’ve been reflecting this week about the amazing diversity of opportunities that are opening up for bloggers to make money from blogging.
I’ve long advised that bloggers seeking to make money from blogging spread their interests across multiple revenue streams so as not to put all their eggs in one basket.
The wonderful thing is that this is becoming easier and easier to do 2005 has seen many options opening up. I thought I’d take a look at some of the methods that bloggers are currently using to make money through blogs.
Income Streams for Bloggers - How to Make Money Blogging
Advertising Programs - Perhaps the most obvious changes in the past few months have been with the addition of a variety of viable advertising options for bloggers looking to make money from their blogs. The most common way bloggers seem to earn money online is via the contextual ad program from Google - Adsense. A more recent addition that many are using successfully are Chitika’s eMiniMalls and WidgetBucks, Text Link Ads.
Azoogle Ads, Intelli Txt, DoubleClick, Tribal Fusion, Adbrite, Clicksor, AdHearUs, Kanoodle, Pheedo, TextAds, Bidvertiser, Fastclick and Value Click (to name just some of the options) and there is a smorgasbord of options. Of course there is more to come with MSN Adcenter and YPN both in beta testing and with a variety of other advertising system currently in development (YPN is only available to US publishers).
Lastly there’s BlogAds - one of the first blog specific ad networks.
RSS Advertising - The past 12 months have seen some advances in RSS Advertising also. I’m yet to hear of any bloggers making big money blogging through it to this point - but as improvements are made to the ad programs exploring this I’m sure we’ll start to see examples of it being profitable.
Sponsorship - In addition to the array of advertising programs that are available to join there is a growing awareness in the business of the value and opportunity that exists for them to advertise directly on blogs. I’m hearing more and more examples of this and have been fortunately to have a couple of ad campaigns of my own in the past month - one with Adobe a couple of weeks ago and another just completed with Ricoh for a new digicam over at my Digital Camera Blog. These are not isolated cases - as I say I know of many blogs exploring sponsorship with advertisers at present and suspect we’ll see more of it in the year ahead. Sponsorship is also happening on a post by post basis with some bloggers being paid to write on certain topics by companies - either in one off or a regular fashion - and they are able to make big money from their blogs doing so.
Affiliate Programs - There are larger affiliate programs like Amazon, Linkshare, Clickbank and Commission Junction but also literally thousands of others from the large to the very small.
Digital Assets - Increasing numbers of bloggers have been developing other digital assets to support and add revenue streams to their blogs. By this I mean that I’m increasingly seeing e-books, courses and tele-seminars being run by bloggers. My recent foray into this with the first series of the six figure blogging course that Andy and I ran a few weeks ago and have just released the study version of. This type of activity will only increase in future - in fact this week I’ve seen numerous examples of bloggers running courses.
Blog Network Opportunities - with the rise in popularity of Blog Networks - bloggers are also being presented with more places to earn an income from their blogging - by writing for and with others. While it might be difficult to get a writing gig with one of the bigger networks - there are plenty who are always asking for new bloggers to join and who are willing to pay bloggers using a variety of payment models. While there are distinct advantages of blogging for yourself - blogging for an established network who will handle a lot of the set up/promotion/admin/SEO etc has it’s advantages also. More and more bloggers are combining writing for themselves on their own blogs with taking on blog network blogs as additional income streams.
Business Blog Writing Opportunities - as blogging has risen in it’s profile as a medium more and more businesses are starting blogs. Many of these companies have internal staff take on blogging duties - but an increasing number of them are hiring specialist bloggers to come on and run their blogs. I know of a number of bloggers who in the past month or two have been approached for such paid work. Check out Bloggers for Hire if you’re looking for this type of work.
Non Blogging Writing Opportunities - Also becoming more common are bloggers being hired to write in non blogging mediums. Manolo’s recent coup of a column in the Washington Post is just one example of this as bloggers are increasingly being approached to write for newspapers, magazines and other non blog websites. Along side this is the rise of bloggers as published book authors - this is to the extent that one blogger I spoke with this week complained to me that they were one of the few bloggers than they knew who didn’t have a book deal!
Donations - Tip Jars and donation buttons have been a part of blogging for years now but this last year saw a number of bloggers go full time after fund raising drives. Perhaps the most high profile of these was Jason Kottke of kottke.org who through the generosity of his readership was able to quit his job and become a full time blogger.
Flipping Blogs - Also more common in 2005 was the practice of ‘Blog Flipping’ - or selling of blogs. This has happened both on an individual blog level (I can think of about 20 blogs that sold this year) but also on a network level (the most obvious of these being the 8 figure sale of Weblogs Inc to AOL).
Merchandising - My recent attempt to sell ProBlogger.net T-shirts wasn’t a raging success, but it is an example of how an increasing number of bloggers are attempting to make a few extra dollars from their blogs by selling branded products through programs like Cafepress. While I didn’t have a lot of success with merchandising - quite a few larger blogs are seeing significant sales - especially blogs with a cult following. I’m not at liberty to discuss details - but I know of one largish blog which will see sales over $20,000 in merchandise for the calendar year of 2005.
Consulting and Speaking - While it has been popular for established consultants to add blogs to their businesses we’re also starting to see bloggers with no consulting background able to make money by charging readers for their time in consulting scenarios BECAUSE of the profile that their blogs have built them. Blogging has the ability to establish people as experts on niche topics and we all know the value of being perceived as an expert. I spoke to one blogger last month who charges himself out at over $200 an hour for speaking and consulting work - his area of expertise was something that he knew little about 18 months ago - but through his blog he’s become a leader in his field and a minor celebrity in his industry.
As time rolls on there are more and more ways that bloggers make money from their blogs opening up. Feel free to suggest your own ideas and experiences in comments below.
Assuming you feel qualified to take on the challenge of generating income from blogging (and I haven’t scared you away yet), the three most important things you need to monetize your blog are traffic, traffic, and traffic.
Just to throw out some figures, last month (April 2006), this site received over 1.1 million visitors and over 2.4 million page views. That’s almost triple what it was just six months ago.
Why is traffic so important? Because for most methods of online income generation, your income is a function of traffic. If you double your traffic, you’ll probably double your income (assuming your visitor demographics remain fairly consistent). You can screw almost everything else up, but if you can generate serious traffic, it’s really hard to fail. With sufficient traffic the realistic worst case is that you’ll eventually be able to monetize your web site via trial and error (as long as you keep those visitors coming).
When I first launched this blog, I knew that traffic building was going to be my biggest challenge. All of my plans hinged on my ability to build traffic. If I couldn’t build traffic, it was going to be very difficult to succeed. So I didn’t even try to monetize my site for the first several months. I just focused on traffic building. Even after 19 months, traffic building is still the most important part of my monetization plan. For my current traffic levels, I know I’m undermonetizing my site, but that’s OK. Right now it’s more important to me to keep growing the site, and I’m optimizing the income generation as I go along.
Traffic is the primary fuel of online income generation. More visitors means more ad clicks, more product sales, more affiliate sales, more donations, more consulting leads, and more of whatever else that generates income for you. And it also means you’re helping more and more people.
With respect to traffic, you should know that in many respects, the rich do get richer. High traffic leads to even more traffic-building opportunities that just aren’t accessible for low-traffic sites. On average at least 20 bloggers add new links to my site every day, my articles can easily surge to the top of social bookmarking sites like del.icio.us, and I’m getting more frequent requests for radio interviews. Earlier this year I was featured in USA Today and in Self Magazine, which collectively have millions of readers. Journalists are finding me by doing Google searches on topics I’ve written about. These opportunities were not available to me when I was first starting out. Popular sites have a serious advantage. The more traffic you have, the more you can attract.
If you’re intelligent and web savvy, you should also be able to eventually build a high-traffic web site. And you’ll be able to leverage that traffic to build even more traffic.
What do I mean by web savvy? You don’t need to be a programmer, but you need a decent functional understanding of a variety of web technologies. What technologies are “key” will depend on the nature of your blog and your means of monetization. But generally speaking I’d list these elements as significant:
blog publishing software
HTML/CSS
blog comments (and comment spam)
RSS/syndication
feed aggregators
pings
trackbacks
full vs. partial feeds
blog carnivals (for kick-starting your blog’s traffic)
search engines
search engine optimization (SEO)
page rank
social bookmarking
tagging
contextual advertising
affiliate programs
traffic statistics
email
Optional: podcasting, instant messaging, PHP or other web scripting languages.
I’m sure I missed a few due to familiarity blindness. If scanning such a list makes your head spin, I wouldn’t recommend trying to make a full-time living from blogging just yet. Certainly you can still blog, but you’ll be at a serious disadvantage compared to someone who’s more web savvy, so don’t expect to achieve stellar results until you expand your knowledge base.
If you want to sell downloadable products such as ebooks, then you can add e-commerce, SSL, digital delivery, fraud prevention, and online databases to the list. Again, you don’t need to be a programmer; you just need a basic understanding of these technologies. Even if you hire someone else to handle the low-level implementation, it’s important to know what you’re getting into. You need to be able to trust your strategic decisions, and you won’t be able to do that if you’re a General who doesn’t know what a gun is.
A lack of understanding is a major cause of failure in the realm of online income generation. For example, if you’re clueless about search engine optimization (SEO), you’ll probably cripple your search engine rankings compared to someone who understands SEO well. But you can’t consider each technology in isolation. You need to understand the connections and trade-offs between them. Monetizing a blog is a balancing act. You may need to balance the needs of yourself, your visitors, search engines, those who link to you, social bookmarking sites, advertisers, affiliate programs, and others. Seemingly minor decisions like what to title a web page are significant. In coming up with the title of this article, I have to take all of these potential viewers into consideration. I want a title that is attractive to human visitors, drives reasonable search engine traffic, yields relevant contextual ads, fits the theme of the site, and encourages linking and social bookmarking. And most importantly I want each article to provide genuine value to my visitors. I do my best to create titles for my articles that balance these various needs. Often that means abandoning cutesy or clever titles in favor of direct and comprehensible ones. It’s little skills like these that help drive sustainable traffic growth month after month. Missing out on just this one skill is enough to cripple your traffic. And there are dozens of these types of skills that require web savvy to understand, respect, and apply.
This sort of knowledge is what separates the 1% from the 99%. Both groups may work just as hard, but the 1% is getting much better results for their efforts. It normally doesn’t take me more than 60 seconds to title an article, but a lot of experience goes into those 60 seconds. You really just have to learn these ideas once; after that you can apply them routinely.
Whenever you come across a significant web technology you don’t understand, look it up on Google or Wikipedia, and dive into it long enough to acquire a basic understanding of it. To make money from blogging it’s important to be something of a jack of all trades. Maybe you’ve heard the expression, “A jack of all trades is a master of none.” That may be true, but you don’t need to master any of these technologies — you just have to be good enough to use them. It’s the difference between being able to drive a car vs. becoming an auto mechanic. Strive to achieve functional knowledge, and then move on to something else. Even though I’m an experienced programmer, I don’t know how many web technologies actually work. I don’t really care. I can still use them to generate results. In the time it would take me to fully understand one new technology, I can achieve sufficient functional knowledge to apply several of them.
Some people have strong personal feelings with respect to making money from their blogs. If you think commercializing your blog is evil, immoral, unethical, uncool, lame, greedy, obnoxious, or anything along those lines, then don’t commercialize it.
If you have mixed feelings about monetizing your blog, then sort out those feelings first. If you think monetizing your site is wonderful, fine. If you think it’s evil, fine. But make up your mind before you seriously consider starting down this path. If you want to succeed, you must be congruent. Generating income from your blog is challenging enough — you don’t want to be dealing with self-sabotage at the same time. It should feel genuinely good to earn income from your blog — you should be driven by a healthy ambition to succeed. If your blog provides genuine value, you fully deserve to earn income from it. If, however, you find yourself full of doubts over whether this is the right path for you, you might find this article helpful: How Selfish Are You? It’s about balancing your needs with the needs of others.
If you do decide to generate income from your blog, then don’t be shy about it. If you’re going to put up ads, then really put up ads. Don’t just stick a puny little ad square in a remote corner somewhere. If you’re going to request donations, then really request donations. Don’t put up a barely visible “Donate” link and pray for the best. If you’re going to sell products, then really sell them. Create or acquire the best quality products you can, and give your visitors compelling reasons to buy. If you’re going to do this, then fully commit to it. Don’t take a half-assed approach. Either be full-assed or no-assed.
You can reasonably expect that when you begin commercializing a free site, some people will complain, depending on how you do it. I launched this site in October 2004, and I began putting Google Adsense ads on the site in February 2005. There were some complaints, but I expected that — it was really no big deal. Less than 1 in 5,000 visitors actually sent me negative feedback. Most people who sent feedback were surprisingly supportive. Most of the complaints died off within a few weeks, and the site began generating income almost immediately, although it was pretty low — a whopping $53 the first month. If you’d like to see some month-by-month specifics, I posted my 2005 Adsense revenue figures earlier this year. Adsense is still my single best source of revenue for this site, although it’s certainly not my only source. More on that later…
