Google Adsense is one of the best ways to monetize your website. Many webmasters find it hard to earn some good money with their website while others are earning hundreds of dollars a day just by having Google Adsense ads on their sites. Setting up a site and just placing the ads onto it is not quite enough to be earning, you need to fully optimize your website and Adsense ads for your income to reach its highest potential.
It is remarkable how by tweaking your website can increase your income significantly. Here are some tips on how to optimize your website and improve your Adsense earnings:
1. The format of Adsense ad that you use can make a major difference to the number of clicks you receive. The one ad that has shown to perform the best is the Large Rectangle (336X280). The large rectangle has the tendency to result in higher click-through rates. Why choose this format out of the many you can use? Basically because the ads will look like normal web links, and people, being used to clicking on them, click these types of links. As your main goal is to have as many clicks as you possibly can, then it is best to use this ad block to get those clicks.
2. The color you choose for your ads can also make a huge difference to the number of clicks you will receive. It is best if you set the background of your ad to blend with the background color of your site.
Also if you set your ad border colour to the same as the background color then the border won’t show which makes the ad blend better to your site content.
Have the title color the same color as the headings on your website. Doing these three things will make your Adsense ads blend into your site and appear more like part of your content and own links rather than obvious ads. This will result in more clicks from your visitors.
3. More people will see the top of your page than the bottom of your page, as not everyone stays at a site long enough to scroll to the bottom, so try to have as much Adsense as you can near the top of your page without overdoing it.
Just by moving your ads from the bottom of your page up to the top can make an amazing difference to your Adsense income. Also having some ads near the navigation bar is a great idea as the navigation bar is one part of the page that almost always gets looked at.
4. The use of relevant keywords throughout the content of your website is extremely important. You will be favoured by the search engines and gain a good page ranking if your site is optimized well with good quality keywords. The higher your page ranking the more visitors you will receive to your website.
5. To receive enough clicks on your ads to earn a good income, you need to drive heaps of traffic to your website. Do your homework on the different ways to drive traffic to your site and use all of them. The more visitors you get the more clicks you get and ultimately the more money you will make.
These are just a few of the tips that have worked very well for many people who are now earning hundreds and even thousands of dollars through Google Adsense.
It is important to know though that ads are displayed because it fits the interest of the people viewing them. So focusing on a specific topic should be your primary purpose because the displays will be especially targeted on a topic that persons will be viewing already.
If these tips can work wonders for many people then they are bound to help you out with your Adsense income too. Give them a go and see how much your Adsense earnings increase.
Many people earn an amazing income just by having Google Adsense ads on their websites. By having Google Adsense ads on your site, you will earn commission every time that someone clicks on those ads.
The more sites you have with Adsense ads, the more income you can earn.
But where do you start?
Firstly, you will need to choose your niche – or topic – for your Adsense website.
If you are new to creating websites, then it may be a good idea to create a website about a topic that you have good knowledge about or experience with. It is much easier to write about something that you know about so by creating a website on a topic you know, you will find it easy to create lots of good content based on your knowledge.
Your homepage will be the introduction to the topic. That page will have links to other pages containing more specific information about the topic. Each page on your website will be sub categories to the main topic. For example if you have a website about gardening, your homepage will be your introduction page talking about gardening in general. Then your other pages could be separated for different types of plants, trees or landscapes, giving more detailed information about these different aspects of gardening.
You don’t need to have a fancy website, often something plain is better.
Once you have all your ideas for your website and have perhaps typed up a few pages of content for your site, you will need to get a domain name and some web hosting. Look around to get a good deal on hosting. If you intend to make more than one Adsense website then look for a deal that gives you unlimited domain hosting.
If you don’t have enough information from your own knowledge then you will need to do some research on your topic. You can do your research on the internet, and also through books or magazines or visit your local library.
To encourage your visitors to return to your site, make sure you offer them good content. If your content isn’t very good, then not too many will come back to your site. Good, unique content will keep your visitors coming back and remember; each time they come back there is a good chance they will click on your ads.
You also want your Adsense ads to match the content on your site, so having a lot of good content will ensure that the ads placed on your site will match your topic.
The search engines will also like your site better if you have good, quality and unique content on your site. You want to make the search engines happy, so they will reward you with a good page ranking. The higher your page ranking in the search engines, the more visitors you will get to your website.
Display your content well so it is easy on the eyes and easy to read. Try to use good colors on your pages, colors that are easy on the eyes. Often dark backgrounds such as black or navy blue can be quite hard to read and turn away visitors very quickly.
You may also want to choose colors that could benefit the niche of your website, such as green color scheme for a gardening website, or blue for a beach themed website.
When you have your content set up on your website and are happy with how it looks, then you can ad your Adsense ads. Once you have added your Adsense ads, then upload your site to your server and start promoting your site.
You want to promote your site like crazy to receive as many visitors as possible to click on your ads.
If you don’t see enough income coming in from your ads spend a bit of time tweaking your ads until you get them just right. Also keep on working at building up traffic to your website, the more traffic, and the more clicks you will get on your ads.
Ebooks are becoming increasingly popular every day. As the number of people accessing the internet grows each day, so does the exposure of your ebook.
Ebooks are the way of the future for sharing information, ideas, knowledge and techniques.
Ebooks have certain qualities that hard cover books do not possess. For example, an ebook is much easier to produce than a hard cover book and also a lot less expensive. All you need to publish an ebook is a concept, the ability to write the ebook and the write software in which to produce the ebook.
Ebooks are easily distributed online and this is one of the main reasons why they are becoming so popular.
As a customer, being able to obtain the ebook immediately upon payment, as opposed to ordering a hard copy book and waiting for delivery, is a major advantage.
Many people when making purchases will usually want to receive the item as soon as possible. So to offer an instant downloadable product is an amazing offer that many potential customers will not be able to refuse.
The other advantage for the producer of the ebook is that you have complete control over your product. You don’t need to have your ebook approved or accepted by a publishing company for it to be published. You just have to write the ebook and then publish it. You can design it however you like with whatever text you like.
This also means that you can also use your ebook to promote other products that you may have or be an affiliate of. Don’t over promote your products but with a few subtle mentions throughout your ebook can bring in many sales.
If you have a unique ebook with an idea or technique that no-one else to your knowledge has written about, then make sure you copyright your ebook. This will give you a very powerful tool that you have to offer to the public. This will increase the flow of traffic to your site as people will have to visit your site to obtain this vital information that only you are offering.
By keeping your ebook updated and always adding any new trends or techniques you can continue to see profits come from your ebook for many years to come.
Selling your ebook alone can make you a good income but sometimes a good income can come from giving away a free ebook.
You can make income through a free ebook in two ways.
Firstly, make your ebook great quality. Just because it’s free doesn’t mean you should just throw together anything and give it away. If your ebook is good quality then your readers will think of you as an expert within that field. In which case if you make any recommendations within the ebook to your products or affiliate products you may receive many sales.
You can also use this method for referring new members to MLM programs. As long as you show your reader that you have good knowledge in this field and will make a good leader then this can be a great way to recruit new members.
The second way to make income by giving away a free ebook is to capture your readers name and email address. Offer your ebook free as a bonus for signing up to your newsletter or mailing list.
Once you have captured your readers email address you can follow up with them and gain their trust and make future sales through your emails to them.
Ebooks are one of the most effective ways of promotion and as long as you have a computer then there is no reason why you can’t write one.
Have you ever thought about writing your own ebook but are just not too sure where to start?
Writing an ebook is very simple and ebooks are very easy to publish unlike hard cover books.
Your ebook doesn’t need to be approved by any publishing company to be published, you are the author, editor and publisher, and you make all the decisions and approvals.
However, if you want your ebook to sell well, then be sure to make it of good quality. When marketing your ebook it is always helpful to have testimonials and people will be more than happy to give you testimonials on your ebook if it is of good quality.
Having said that, you do not need to be an expert to write an ebook. If you have knowledge within the topic that you wish to write about then that is a great start. If it is a topic that you have an abundance of experience with or perhaps a hobby that you have, then you should easily be able to write an ebook on the topic.
If there is a topic that you would like to write about but you do not have quite enough experience or knowledge to write an entire ebook, then there are many options to find the information you need.
You will find a ton of information on any topic on the internet, in books, or at the library. As long as you do not break any copyright laws and copy information word for word, then you can use the information and put it into your own wording.
Once you have all the information you need to write your ebook, then you will need to sit down and start taking notes. It is helpful to start of with a list of points you wish to cover, once you have a list of all your points then sort them into the order of which they should appear within your ebook.
Once you have done this, then most of the hard work is over. That is probably the hardest part to writing an ebook is getting started and making the list of everything you want to include.
Start your ebook off with an introduction and explain briefly what your ebook is about and perhaps some history which brought you to writing your ebook.
Once you have your introduction then go through all your points that you listed and expand on them. Each point can be used as a chapter within your ebook. If you find it difficult to sit and write a full chapter about one of your points, then list more points for that particular point. Then expand on each of those points.
This can be one of the easiest ways to write an ebook. List your points and then expand on them. In no time at all you will have an ebook full of some great information.
If you have a brilliant idea or some new knowledge that has not yet been covered by anyone else in an ebook then you could have an ebook that may be very profitable.
People are always looking for new ideas or faster and easier techniques, if you can offer your potential customers something new or easier then you will have a big seller.
Once you have your ebook written it is very important to have a good sales page for your ebook as well as a well design ebook cover. To make good sales your product needs to look professional and needs to entice the buyer to purchase your ebook above anyone else’s.
Have you ever seen this slogan while looking for making money online?
“Would You Like To Work In Your Pyjamas”
This is one I’ve seen quite regularly with people promoting online business programs. ‘Join our program and you too can work in your pyjamas’ or similar statements.
The whole point being that you can work from home and wear whatever you want, even your pyjamas if that is what you want to do. You can sleep in and get out of bed at whatever time you wish as you don’t have a boss that requires you to start at a particular time. You can get out of bed and turn your computer straight on while still in your PJs.
This is the dream of many and the reality of many.
But how many of them actually do work all day in their pyjamas?
When first starting out online it can be very easy to stay in your pyjamas for half the day or even the whole day while you lose track of time. You may stay in your pyjamas all day just because you can. That’s the beauty of working from home after all; you can work in your pyjamas.
However, I’m a big believer in dressing for success. I believe that dressing in your pyjamas or even in your old daggy tracksuit can make you too relaxed and not put you in the right frame of mind to work well.
Your mind set and the way you think can play a huge part on how successful you are. This is true with online work or with anything in life.
So if you are to dress in your pyjamas, you are in a very relaxed mind set.
If you are dressed in a business suit or even just some nice casual clothes, but clothes suited more for going to work, you will be in the mind set of working.
If you look at photos of any online gurus or entrepreneurs, you won’t find any in their pyjamas. They will be wearing either business suits or nice casual clothes for their photos on their sales pages. This is because it looks professional.
Are you more likely to purchase a product if there is a picture of the product owner in a business suit, or a picture in his pyjamas?
The business suit is more professional and gives your customers the impression that you are a professional person and possibly an expert in your field.
I believe that by dressing this way when you are working from home will also make a big difference in the way you think, and therefore in the quality of work you produce and will more than likely make you more successful than if you are too relaxed in the way you dress each day while you work.
What is ‘The Secret’?
There are not too many people that haven’t read or seen or at least heard about ‘The Secret’. For those who haven’t ‘The Secret’ is generally about ‘The Law Of Attraction’.
According to ‘The Secret’ the frequency that you think on will determine the outcome of your life. The universe works on different frequencies and your life will be the result of the frequency of your thoughts.
For example…..
If you start your own business, whether it is online or offline, if you go into the business with lots of doubts and constant thoughts of ‘what if I fail’, then according to ‘The Secret’ you will fail as this is the frequency that your thoughts are on.
Of course this works the same the other way, if you go into your business with positive thoughts and constantly think about how successful your business is, and then you will succeed.
So is ‘The Secret’ for real and if so can it help you in your online business ventures?
I believe that ‘The Secret’ does work to a certain extent. I believe that if you are generally a negative thinker and are always expecting the worse, then you will receive a lot of negative results.
I believe that if you are generally a positive thinker and are always happy with your results and don’t expect any bad results, and then you will receive positive results.
I don’t know if this is because of the ‘frequencies of the universe’ or if it is more that when you are thinking positively you are perhaps putting in more of an effort and in a more positive way than if you are a negative thinker.
If you are a negative thinker and expecting the worse results from your online business then you will find it hard to get motivated and get results. You many procrastinate a lot instead of focusing on your tasks and being constructive with your time.
However, a positive thinker will be excited about the ‘good results’ that they are expecting to get which will give them the motivation to get on with the job and put them in the right frame of mind to focus and therefore get the results they are after.
Often if you don’t see results immediately, many people will give up and move on to something else. Not getting immediate results may put you in a negative frame of mind and make it hard to keep on going.
This is where the power of the mind can really affect if you are successful online or not. It is those who are positive and don’t give up that will succeed. Even if they don’t see results immediately, they believe in themselves that the results will come and they keep on going and working toward their goals.
This, I believe, is how ‘The Secret’ can help you with your online business. Keeping a positive state of mind and have good thoughts about your business will keep you motivated and focused and you will see good results.
Selling ebooks on ebay is very popular at the moment and the demand for them is very high. Some sellers actually make a full time income just by selling ebooks on ebay, and a very good income at that. Selling ebooks, and in particular your own ebook is one of the most profitable businesses on the internet.
There are two ways in which you can obtain ebooks to sell on ebay.
Firstly, you can purchase ebooks with resell rights. If you buy resell rights to a product you are free to resell that product. You can only sell the actual product but can’t sell the resell rights to the product. Which is ok for buying to sell on ebay.
However, if you would like to offer your customers the resell rights to your ebooks – which can increase their value – you will need to purchase ebooks with Master Resell Rights. This means that you can resell the product plus sell the resell rights to the product.
If you would like to buy an ebook that you would like to perhaps change around a little and give it your own personal touch, then you will need to buy an ebook with Private Label Resell Rights.
This means that you have the rights to change the product and change the author name to your own name. PLR rights are very good because you really have the ultimate ownership of that product and can do much more with it, including adding some affiliate links within the ebook.
If you are not experienced enough in a particular field to write your own ebook, then purchasing an ebook with PLR rights is a good place to start. You will have much of the information you need already in the ebook, and all you need to do is change it a little.
The second way to obtain ebooks to sell is to write your own ebook. Ultimately, this is the best option as you have 100% ownership of the product and can do absolutely anything you want with it.
You can write ebooks about almost anything, so there is a good chance that you have a hobbie or interest that you have enough knowledge about to create your own ebook.
If you do need some more knowledge than you personally have, you can quite quickly and easily research the topic on the internet or in books and find some more information. Always make sure when you find any information from the internet or books, never copy the information straight from the source, always make sure you write it in your own words.
Selling ebooks is quite popular due to the fact that once you have your ebook written and all ready to sell, there are very little costs after that point. No continued purchasing costs that you would have if you were selling physical products.
You can sell your ebooks on ebay or also from your own website. Once your ebooks are set up the only continued costs you will have are your ebay fees or website hosting fees. So when you price your ebooks, make sure you take into account your fees.
Whether you buy ebooks and resell or create your own, you will have a heap of fun choosing and/or creating your products and even more fun selling them.
