Internet Marketing Ideas by Steve Weber   Reply to Me On Twitter: Click Here

One of the biggest you can make when placing AdSense ads on your
pages is placing TOO MANY ad units on a single page!

Besides how this SCREAMS to visitors that you are begging for them
to help you make some income, it is not productive for other
reasons too.

In all my testing, and from my research, it is obvious that less is
more when it comes to better producing AdSense pages. Why is this?

First of all, the most important determining factor for people
clicking your ads is how long they are spending on your site in the
first place. When someone comes to a site which looks to be boring
or simply full of ads, their response will be to click the back
button and NOT one of your AdSense ads.

If your content is compelling and keeps a visitor on the site
longer, they will be more likely to click an AdSense ad. The space
you use showing all those many ad groups could better be spent
featuring valuable content which the visitor will find interesting.

Secondly, Google is all about making money for Google. If you only
select to have one ad group on your page, Google is more likely to
populate that group with higher paying ads. If you have multiple ad
groups on one page, Google will be forced to fill the many groups
with some very low paying ads. Therefore, the average value of
clicks on that page will be diluted by those lower quality ads.

Don’t blindly trust this advice though. Testing is vital! Carefully
record your clicks and earnings for a page over time. Then modify
it (move or delete some ad groups) and let it run until you have a
few hundred or so clicks again; record these and compare with the
previous format. Then modify it and test again! Continued testing
is KEY!

I think you’ll find that less really proves to be more!

Here’s how you can create a residual income with AdSense

You need it more than anything else.

Without it, nothing else really matters.

What is it?

TRAFFIC!

Internet marketers are dead in the water without traffic. Of course not just any traffic will do; it must be targeted traffic. With traffic, the rest of Internet marketing gets pretty easy. Monetizing your website is simple as pie…if you can just generate traffic.

You need traffic. You work hard to get it. Yet traffic can be the one hurdle that some marketers never get past.

Let me ask you this:

Have you properly researched for keywords? I do not mean just trolling the many keyword tools out there looking for keywords you “think” might be good.

Have you optimized at least 10 or 15 pages for your site with those researched keywords? Do your pages contain 500 or more words each? Is the content good quality?

Have you written new and original articles for the article directories to promote your website? Were the articles optimized well with researched keywords? Have you made more than a “token effort” at this?

Have you worked hard at getting backlinks for your site? Have you spent at least a few days in total at this process alone? (A “few days” means 10 or 15 hours…at least!)

If you answered “no” to any of those questions, then I have helped you plan your work schedule over the coming weeks!

Should you feel the need to back up and start over on this process, I have a new project just for you. Google Traffic in 30 Days is a step by step to-do list which leads you through the entire process of finding a niche, researching keywords, creating a site (no HTML required in this case), and marketing it so it ranks on Google’s page #1…all in just 30 days.

I am working on a new Adsense site. One of my customers, Rich Currie, designed the CSS template for me. It is a simple design which I can easily use for multiple sites. Since it is CSS driven and has extremely clean code, there are no worries about duplicate code issues. Take a look at the site, now under construction: http://www.metalpoetry.com

 

Be sure to “view source” on one of the pages to check out the super clean code!
