Making Money With Google Adsense - How To Make Money With A Google Ad Account

 

It seems as though making money with google adsense is the first line of attack for many who wish to make money online. And you can make money with google adsense. I know people here on hubpages who make money with google adsense. In fact - I make money with google adsense.
But - here's the rub if you are new to making money online and have been sold on the idea of doing so using this method of income:

You need thousands and thousands of page views to make a reasonable income from this, no matter which niche/keyword or subject you are choosing to write in. According to Paul Deeds, the General manager here at hubpages, typical adsense earnings are between $2-$5 per 1,000 page impressions, so - taking an average of $3.50 per 1,000 page views, this will give you an idea of the levels of traffic you need to be able to generate to earn whatever your goal is.

This is an example - bearing in mind that hubpages take 40% of the page impressions your pages generate. As far as I am concerned - especially if you are new to this - this is an excellent deal for you, because there is an awful lot of technical stuff you do not need to worry about.

So - if your goal is $30 per day for instance - you need to generate approximately 14,000 page views a day. Here is the maths:

14,000 x 60% (your impressions) = 8,400
8,400 @ $3.5 per 1,000 = $29.40

On the whole - and this is not always the case - search engine traffic converts best into google adsense clicks. But - there is no hard and fast rule to this - and google can change the rules or your click values whenever they wish. The process is 100% completely opaque and you have absolutely zero control over the process. You must rely 100% entirely on google telling you how many clicks you received and rely absolutely 100% on them to pay you a fair proportion of what the customer paid.

Google can can cancel your account for any reason they see fit - without giving you a reason or explanation and you are powerless to do anything about it. Occasionally you can ask to have a review done and get the account re-instated. This is not unusual and all the other online affiliate programs are similarly opaque. You could well wake up one morning and discover that your ebay affiliate account has been canceled for no reason or that Amazon no longer accepts you in their program because North Carolina now wishes to claim sales taxes from all sales made by affiliates in the state.

These are part and parcel of the hazards of earning a living online or making money blogging. My best advice to you is to diversify. Have as many different sources of traffic as possible and have as many different affiliate programs as possible in as many different niches as possible. Do not rely on any single source of traffic or income. In this case becoming a "Jack of all Trades," is far safer than becoming a Master of One. Because you could turn around and discover it gone.

Here are some resources to help you in your quest to get that traffic. The absolute best way to generate search engine traffic is to create a lot of incoming links to your pages. These are some of the tools I use and some of the affiliate programs I can recommend.
