Your First Adsense at Blog site

Learn from successful blogsiter about How To Build Your First Adsense at Blog site
The best way to learn something is to start doing it. This is a guide to get your up and standing on your own feet and making money with Adsense in a relatively short space of time. There's a lot to take in here but don't be put off by the foreign sounding nature of it all. If you persist everything will come together.

The fundamental fact is that Adsense is the easiest way to start making money online. With a very basic blog / website and just a few people coming to it you will start to earn money. As you develop the site and bring more traffic to it an average Adsense monetized website will make between $500 and $1,000 each and every month with little work needed.

Here's an example of a blogspot site that I built two weeks before starting to write this guide - http://home-interior-design-tips-article.blogspot.com It is a very simple concept which provides interior tips for home owner, designer or decorators. Some of these tips I wrote myself and some I got from the article directories. It took just a couple of days to build and then a couple of days to do the basic search engine optimization and link building necessary to start bringing traffic to it.

It is monetized soley through Adsense and is the easiest way to understand how the program works. I have included three different ad units on each of the tips pages - If you open this page you can see one Adlink at the top, one 336 x 280 rectangle inside the article and another 336 x 280 rectangle at the bottom of the article next to the newsletter subscription box.

Each time a visitor clicks on one of these ads (bearing in mind that the Adlinks requires a visitor to click on the topic and then to click on an ad inside that topic) Google will charge the particular Adwords advertiser the amount that they have said they are willing to bid and will then pay me as an Adsense publisher a percentage of this amount. (This percentage is not released to us but testing suggests it is around the 50% mark).

After two weeks this site is making an average of $5 a day from Adsense. In another 3 weeks it will consistently be making $10 and within 2 to 3 months it will average $30+ a day. All it requires from me is to add a few more tips in to keep the content growing and get a few more inbound links to assist my search engine rankings - I will repeat this process on the first of every month and it will take me a couple of hours.

I'd say the most this site could make from Adsense is $50 - $60 a day, but even if it levels off at $30 a day that's $10,950 a year. With little maintenance work it will do this for 3 years which means for the four initial days I spent building it and the one day a month I improve it I will earn $32,850 - Not bad.

This is how simple it is to make money with Adsense but the reason thousands of people are struggling is because they are not breaking each aspect of the process down to its basics and are focusing on earning $32,850 in one lump sum next Thursday. That's not possible.

People who make a lot of money with Adsense have done one of two things:

1. They have Integrated Adsense into a website that already has high traffic (About.com is the extreme example of this), or

2. They have built a large network of niche websites each of which generates $500 - $1,000 a month. If you build 50 (which over the space of a year or two is completely feasible if you take my above example), you can earn up to about $50,000 a month which equals out to $600,000 a year - pretty good for a network of what are fundamentally very basic websites. This is Adsense Empire Building territory.

Creating one very high traffic website or a large number of small niche websites requires a whole host of skills which you will not yet have. You only get these skills by learning, implementing what you've learnt and reflecting on what your implementation has told you.

As a beginner you have to start at the beginning - that's the rule of any game. As you learn and do more, building effective websites that make more and more money will get easier and easier. Don't be one of the many that are making marketeers rich by buying into their rhetoric of making big money quickly and without any effort. These people end up stopping before they even started.

So How Do You Get Started?

To make money with Adsense you need two things:

1. A website, and

2. Traffic to that website

The Adsense ads are integrated into number one (your website) and are clicked on by number two (your visitors). Without these two things you cannot make money from Adsense. Below is a simple step by step guide of what you need to do and when.
1. You Need to Decide Which Topic You Are Going To Build Your Website On

Adsense works best on websites that provide information. Understanding Adsense provides information about how to make money with Adsense and you have come to this site to learn more about that topic. The Adsense ads are related to this topic and so are more likely to get clicked on. GetGoodatGolf provides information on how to improve different aspects of your golf game. Another website may review a particular product or type of product. For example, independentwebhostingreviews.com which gives information on hosting accounts in the form of an opinion on the best deals.

The easiest way to start is to build a website around a topic that you know something about. Don't look at this as the website that is going to make you rich but as a testing ground to learn all the skills you need to know to build succesful websites in different markets that will make you rich. Money comes after learning and doing. If you chase the money you'll learn and do nothing.
2. You Need to Be Able to Build This Website

First things first - don't buy an Adsense Ready or Turnkey website. If you don't know, these are content websites that have been built and optimized for Adsense. The seller packages together a few hundred articles around a particular market, eg health and then sells this package to a thousand people like you and me. Adsense Ready Websites will give you the first thing you need to make money with Adsense - a website, but you'll find it hard to get the second - traffic - as the search engines penailze duplicate content and without traffic Adsense is useless.

The other problem is that they isolate you from the most important aspect of making money online - and that is building a website.

To us as internet marketeers, all a website is is a vehicle for converting traffic into money. A good website is one that does this effectively. If you don't learn how to build one yourself you are trying to row a boat without an oar.

The good thing is is that you no longer need to learn html code to build your website. Programmers have come to our rescue and over the past few years better and better website creation tools have become available.

The one I recommend is XSitePro. It's made the process of building a website so easy and is streaks ahead of all the other tools on the market. Within two to three hours you will have worked your way through the tutorial and will be in the position to build your own successful money vehicle. It really is the internet marketeers dream come true and on my Golf website I mention above I will have paid the cost back within 7 days. It's literally built to facilitate what this website is talking about and even has an insertion facility for Adsense. It'is one of the few products I sincerely recommend. You can pick up yours here
3. You Need to Buy a Domain Name and Get a Hosting Package For Your Website

Now you've decided the theme of your website and have bought your website creation tool you need to buy a domain name and a hosting package. I now use and recommend Blue Host. They've got a special on at the moment where if you set up a hosting account you get a free domain name. This will save you going to a domain registrar to register a name but you'll have to move.
4. You Need to Create the Content For Your Website

There are two ways of getting content - by writing it yourself or by obtaining it from a third party. The options open to you will really depend on the theme of your website. For a first website I generally recommend that you write it yourself. You can learn how to manipulate other people's information later once you've grasped the basics of website building, Adsense and traffic.
5. You Need to Join Adsense

This is simple - once you have built your website follow this link, click on the "Click Here to Apply" button, fill in your details and wait for your approval email.
6. You Need to Bring Yourself Up to Speed on Adsense

For the complete newbie to Adsense, UnderstandingAdsense.com has it's limitations as it doesn't go into the very basic stuff of how to get the code, how you change the variables etc. The site focuses on what actually makes money with Adsense and this is down to building the right websites, integrating Adsense correctly and bringing traffic to that website. Therefore your'e going to need another source so that you can get to grips with the basics. There are three that I would recommend:

(i) The Google Adsense Help Center - From the people who made the program this is a good tour de force of Adsense and how to use it. They also have some good "heat maps" which give you ad placement ideas depending on the type of website you are building.

(ii) Adsense Forums - Digital Point and Webmaster World both have good Adsense forums if you're the type that can happily sit and sift through thousands of posts.

(iii) Joel Comm's Adsense Secrets Ebook - A quicker way to get to grips with Adsense is to buy this ebook. It's a little pricey at $97 but his book breaks down what you want to know quickly and efficiently. I've read it three or four times and would recommend it to someone like me who prefers to have a start-up manual in front of them rather than having to trawl through thousands of forum postings - a valid shortcut for the newbie to Adsense who is intending on making much more than the $97 cost of the book.
7. You Need to Successfully Integrate Adsense into your website
