Well, in this AdSense Tip, we will be discussing how to increase our earnings from Google Adsense by increasing our targeted traffic. So let me start this article by sharing my experience with you. I was looking for ways to make extra money online 4 years ago when I discovered this interesting advertising program. I was surfing the Web, searching for legitimate ways to earn online, I was sort of Googling and when I was shown the results of my search, on top of the list was a title of a webpage called AdSense. So I clicked on the link, and the rest was history.
The message was plain and simple, put up a website or blog (you can get one free from blogger.com), start blogging or start writing, place the ads in your website (or web pages) and when someone visits your site and clicks on the Ads, you will instantly earn a commission.” Why, this is very simple,” I thought way back then, so I grabbed a blog from blogger.com, started writing, placed my AdSense then waited for the clicks (that never came) to come.
As time passed, I learned my lesson well that it’s not easy to earn from AdSense. I even asked myself how many times have I clicked an AdSense, well I guess not much, probably 20 – 30 times during the 4 years that passed. The clicks were done more often when I was new in the Web and most of them were made from the search results that were presented to me by Google. But as I grew older and became more experienced in the Internet, I started recognizing them and tried avoiding them, unless the title of the AdSense will really grab my attention, arouse my curiosity and click them. So in this AdSense Tip, it is recommended that we need to acquire targeted traffic to earn from Google AdSense and as the traffic gets bigger, it becomes better.
So if this was my case, I believe that this is what most Internet users are also experiencing. Knowing this for a fact, we can say then that we need a huge amount of targeted traffic to increase the chances and earn the needed clicks that we need. Well, not just any traffic, it should be traffic brought by search engines called organic traffic. Or it might be also referral traffic coming from a site whose source is related to the niche or topic of your site like article directories. Now you can acquire huge traffic from other means or ways like traffic from social sites but take note that most of the people who will visit your site don’t have any interest in your niche, so the chances of generating income from them is very slim.
On the other hand, the people searching the web using keywords through search engines who would reach our website will have higher chances of clicking our Google ads. Why? Because first the keywords they searched is what our website or webpage is all about and secondly the Google Ads presented will be related to the content of the webpage where it was placed.
So based on what was discussed above in this AdSense Tip, you should focus on increasing and acquiring targeted traffic. Let’s analyze this one, like I said, in my 4 year career as an Internet user, I only clicked 20 – 30 times. You will be lucky if your traffic or visitors are not reluctant to click any Google Ads, but in reality, well I don’t know if it’s human nature or what but people try to avoid clicking on ads, unless they could really grab their curiosity. Let’s assume that out of 200+ visitors only 10 will be curious enough to click the ads on the webpage that they are reading, so increasing targeted traffic would generally increase our earnings.
So now you have an idea how difficult it is to earn clicks to make extra money online from AdSense. Well it’s true and after making some research you have to face this kind of challenge in bringing many targeted visitors to your site to increase your earnings. Well, the best way to acquire targeted traffic is to promote your website, do some SEO, and write unique and useful articles that would compel other webmasters to link to you. Doing this will definitely increase your chances in landing at the top results.
