Making websites for AdSense

[VKworld]

I just got into tryin to make money with AdSense at the beginning of June 2005.

I just bought <a program> at the end of May and for June and July, I've made $1600+ (and the income is growing).

I've had sites doing $20/day that are now making a few cents a day. My best site has been making about $100/day for the last week and a half.

My main question to you folks in this forum - is there any way you folks know of to make that $100/day "stick" or will the $100/day eventually go to making a couple of cents a day?

Also - you folks think this is "cheating?" I figured - if I'm making $100 with my best site, what if I had 10 "best" sites? Or hey, what about 100 "best" sites?

I haven't had any experience with using <that program> to create Adsense content. Is it the traffic to the site that is reducing or your earnings per click? If it is the latter then probably your sites are not converting for advertisers and you are getting affected either by smart pricing or by advertisers putting your url on their excluded sites list.

To make earnings stick you need to find more high quality targetted traffic (i.e. with their credit cards out ready to purchase) , and "prequalify" it with quality content. This will result in conversions for advertisers and ensure you do not receive a discounted amount per click.

Sounds like you are using grey/black hat methods and eventually google will work this out and apply the smart pricing discount to your entire account and all new urls with your publisher id. You may be making money now, but in the long term you will need to focus on creating value for advertisers in order to make money with the program.

Where are you getting your traffic from?

- Since it is based soley off ranking in a SE I would say no there are no garuantee's.
- Cheating? no,
- SE Spam? most likely
- Do I care? Nope whatever coverts for the advertisor. Its googles job to clear out the crap.

This is unsecure business.

You could have a big surprise when Google changes search alorithms to wipe out automatic generated directory sites.

The people who are doing well with these page generator sites- more commonly referred to as scraper sites- are those who keep making more sites to replace the ones that get dropped from the SERPS.

It's a never-ending treadmill with lots of domain turnover and traffic churn. My best advice for those 10 "best" sites is this: identify the pages and search terms you are ranking well for and getting lots of traffic with. Then take some time and write some useful, relevant content to put on those pages. Keep the adsense blocks but replace the scraped serps with relevant affiliate links. You may be suprised by the increase in revenue.
