First, let me share a bit on what I think on maximising Adsense profits. 

Adsense by itself could be thought of as an affiliate program of  Google. Google pays you a small sum of money when you direct your visitors to Google advertisers’ sites. There are keywords which will earn you lots of money when a visitor clicks on the ads related to that keywords.

So, to find out which keywords give the most bucks, use Adsense’s brother, Google Adwords to find out the keywords which have the highest minimum bid. These keywords will most likely give you the most Adsense money.

First select a theme based on these keywords. It is preferable to have a blog which focus on this theme. People loves to read blogs and may well click on your ads after reading your posts. Google loves blogs as well, you may earn some natural traffic if your post is indexed on the first page of results for some search terms.

I think in order to have an Adsense income, you must have good content on your site. When anybody first started out, it is not wise to have adsense ads without having a reasonable amount of content on it. A reasonable amount of content will not cause Google Adsense to be confused about the ads to put up.

Another reason why Adsense ads should not be put up first is that there must be sufficient traffic before you can earn a living with Adsense. Traffic is the lifeblood of a website. So you got to build a conent rich website before putting Adsense ads.

So to summarize, this is what you can do if you want to make a killing from Adsense

1) Set up a blog using WordPress or blogger. You can choose to host it on your website. This is advisable because you must have the rights to your own content.

2) Research for “expensive” keywords to decide on the theme of your blog.

3) Blog everyday.

4) After getting a substantial amount of content, begin to attract traffic through social networking and by posting in high traffic forums.

That’s all. when you have a stable volume of traffic, you will start to earn a stable income from Adsense revenues.

Please share if you have other better ideas of earning Adsense revenues. Thanks.

Basically, I think this is quite a viral site. With an interesting quiz, this site can attract tons of free traffic just by auto referral. With adsense ads at the side, the site is set to monetize the traffic. If you are thinking of profiting through adsense, go and have a look for yourself. Maybe you can come up with a viral quiz which can earn you some income.

Guess my Blog IQ result.

Here’s my result: I am a blog guru!

Blogs are nothing new to you – you’ve weathered your share of blogstorms and maybe even started a couple yourself. You may remember reading “weblogs” in 1997, when Jorn Barger started “logging the web” in Robot Wisdom. Since then, the “blogosphere,” the total of blog-related websites, has exploded. As a blog guru, you’ve probably encountered blog novelties out such as the milblog, a soldier’s military chronicle. “Dark blogs” are no mystery to you either – you might even be a member of these hidden, invitation-only websites.

Your blog style takes you beyond the fluff of the blogosphere and into the substance. Blogs can be a powerful and informative resource. Some blogs pool collective wisdom; others pull readers together for collective political action. Many blogs sprouted up during the Iraq conflict to provide grassroots news coverage. Blogs give everyone a chance to be heard, even the trolls (disruptive bloggers). Of course, you can always “blurk” – listen without posting – instead. However you participate, it’s an interesting ride.You’re such a blog junkie, blogs regularly ‘blogfoo’ (refer to obliquely) you. Your blog’s blogroll (list of favorite blogs) has more links than Colin Farrell has phone numbers on matchbook covers. Could you use this network to your advantage? Karyn Bosnak did. A taste for Prada landed this twenty-something Manhattanite in $20,000 credit card debt. Karyn launched a thread of commentary on savekaryn.com “blegging” (begging on a blog) for cash. Six months and countless visitor contributions later, Miss Karyn was debt-free.
