I was quite surprised that the Adsense team actually analyzes individual accounts that accurately. I don’t think this was an algorithm that was just checking my site and found 2 ads per page instead of 3.

I received this suggestion only for one of my sites – and that’s the one in a high paying niche with reasonable traffic (around 2000 daily visitors).

And if the Google Adsense team personally contacts you and “strongly suggests” that you do something new for your site, then you better do it.

I added the third ad per page ONLY on 5 T2 pages of that site – just to test it.

Those 5 extra ads increased my earnings of that site by 7%.

I will now ad the third Adsense ad on all T2 pages and see how that affects the earnings of the whole site.

As you probably know, the more ads you have per page, the less the bottom ones pay.

So I think that this approach (3 ads per page) works well only in high paying Adsense niches where there are also lots of advertisers – which means that the payout of the third ad will not be that low.

What are your experiences with the number of Adsense ads per page and have you also received a message from the Optimization team in your Google Adsense account?

Inevitably, the question comes to mind: How do I create higher earning websites?

The easiest method of determining whether a site will be a high earning or a low earning one is to check the Adwords CPC numbers which tell you how much advertisers are willing to pay for a click. (I use Exact match in the examples below.)

Here are two examples…

1. The #4 site in the article mentioned above is earning $152 per 100 daily visitors per month. The Adwords CPC (cost per click) looks something like this:

I actually checked the numbers before going after this niche and knew that the payout will not be that great.

So why did I start the site anyway? Because the demand and supply numbers for many keywords were very good and I knew I could create a high traffic site (over 1000 daily visitors) in the long term.

And once you have lots of traffic, you have many options to find good monetization mix.

Also, I tested Adsense on that site and the average payout was less than 10 cents per click which is what you can expect based on my comparison between Adsense Search and content Adsense clicks.

I found that Chitika pays much better in that niche compared to Adsense so I removed it and now use mostly Chitika (and a few affiliate links) to monetize that site.

2. The #2 site (mentioned in the previous article) earns $457 per 100 daily visitors per month. Here’s how the Adsense CPC looks for that niche:

You can see that there is a very good corelation between the Adsense CPC numbers in Adwords and the actual income per site.

The CPC of the first site (#4) averages at around $1 and the CPC of the second site (#2) averages at around $3.50 – which is about 3 to 4 times more.

The actual income of site #2 is also about 3 times more than site #4: $457 is almost exactly 3 times $152.

How to Find High Paying Niches

I personally don’t have a system in place. I might check out Amazon.com for various products and test their CPC in the Adwords keyword tool or I might simply keep an open mind when I go about my usual life.

If I am in a shopping mall and I see something interesting, I remember that and then test the idea later at home in Adwords.

I might browse the Web, read about an interesting topic, service, future development and test that in Adwords.

There are also some sites that sell high paying Adsense keywords but I haven’t checked those in years – so I cannot recommend any.

Do a Google search on that term and use your own judgment whether you want to pay for those or whether you can find some free info on such topics.

I  got a great domain which for some magic reason was not registered at the time (but it was before) and I immediately bought an SBI site.

But later got caught up in work, life and other projects and failed to start the site.

I am looking to simplify my online business in 2010 by keeping the sites that do well and getting rid of those that don’t do that well and those where I haven’t started yet.

Hence looking to sell this site to the highest bidder who will take advantage of its potential…

Hi Tomaz,

I just wanted to ask a question regarding affiliate links in a product review site. I’ve started my second site on _______ and have about 50 pages plus 20-30 C2 pages. At this point I do not have any affiliate links or any links to Amazon or any other product sellers.

Of course I would prefer to have 100-200 unique visitors daily before adding any affiliate links, but it seems odd to have reviews without leading the visitor to a purchase site. So when is the most appropriate time to add affiliate links?

Or do you recommend adding links without affiliate coding first? Or should I add Google ads first? That at least gives them a click option.

———————————————————–

Hi R…,

The “it seems odd to have reviews without leading the visitor to a purchase site.” shouldn’t bother you so much.

Visitors come and go and they come again. It’s an endless supply – in fact it keeps growing. More people use internet every day.

So yes, some people will find your site at the beginning and it won’t be of much use to them. So what?

They will find another site. It’s like some people will find a place in the town where a new restaurant is being built – but there are cranes and workers all around.

What should I do? I’ll find another place – for now.

But there is endless supply of people coming into this town and once the restaurant is done, they will keep coming in.

Same with your site. It is still being built and there are just “foundations” and “walls” there.

Build your content and build your links so that you get more traffic. Then you can monetize.

Do affiliate links hurt a new site with almost no incoming links?

I am not 100% sure because I don’t know Google’s algorithm.

I did have one bad experience though when I added Amazon aff. links very early to a site. Here’s how the traffic was going up and how it went up as I continued to build pages and automatically include Amazon aff. links (the last column on the right are unique visitors):

I thought that this was just a Google dance at first so I didn’t do anything. But my average traffic in the next month was 12 daily visitors.

Eventually I removed aff. links and kept building content and an occasional link and the site now gets over 200 daily visitors – which is normal for the amount of pages and links that it has.

In my personal view I think that the site needs to have some authority to be able to withstand linking out often through affiliate links. Especially those which are easily recognizable by Google with an algorithm. (Amazon, Clickbank, …)

On another note, I also think that adding Google Adsense early to the site won’t bring the site down. Again, this is just my feeling based on my experience and some stuff I read.

Another Reason to Delay Monetization

As most of us have found out, there is a strong emotion that affects people when it comes to money – jealousy.

Simply put, people prefer to link to young sites (with poor pagerank and Alexa and simple layouts) if there are no ads and aff. links present. They might be willing to link to a site if it’s just useful content that they are linking to and not a way for another webmaster to make money.

So if you put ads and aff. links to your site immediately, it will be much tougher to get quality links. And the links are hard to get anyway.

The SBI Action Guide suggests adding monetization to your site once it reaches at least 100 daily visitors. But that number is just an indication of how much content + links you have!

It’s an indication that you probably have enough incoming links and authority which can convince Google to keep your site well ranked despite your obvious attempts to make money from those rankings and high traffic.

I personally now do not monetize a site until it has around 400 or 500 daily visitors. (It took me a year with a site to reach that for example.)

That amount of daily visitors suggests enough high quality links and that will on average earn me $400 to $500 per month extra – which is something tangible.

So when should you monetize?

Realize that on average, you will earn around $100 per month from 100 daily visitors. Again, you can earn 3x more and 3x less with 100 daily visitors but in my experience that’s about the average.

If you badly need those $100 per month, monetize with 100 daily visitors. Know that you will now have more problems getting quality links.

Again, there are always exceptions and your site’s design may persuade people to link to you more or your site’s extremely interesting topic may be more “linkable” than a boring product review.

But in general, the earlier you monetize, the harder it is to get links.

When the Game Changes

I found that usually the game changes once my site gets to pagerank 3 or more. Then the link that I offer in return from one of my internal pages is typically a PR2 or a PR1.

That is a good enough value for people to put jealousy in second place because their self-interest is now in the first place.

Most webmasters know that a PR2 in-content link is very valuable to their site and they are willing to return the favor and help you get better rankings and traffic and make more money – but that right now doesn’t matter to them anymore.

They want their better rankings, their traffic and their extra income and your quality link will help them achieve that.

Hi Tomaz,

My name is S….. and I am a former SBI owner who is considering signing up again. I had a travel website that I did not follow through on because I got stuck on and frustrated with the technical aspects of building a website but I am willing to try again and push through the pain so to speak because I want financial independence.

I was also not sure how I would effectively monetize a travel website. I contacted SBI but the advisor I spoke to didn’t have concrete suggestions but I checked the results.sitesell.com page per our conversation and contacted the owner of ________.com since that is a travel website about the town of ___ at _____ island and my website would be about the island of ______.

Long story short he doesn’t endorse SBI per say and he doesn’t endorse doing a travel website either. He knows who you are from your postings in the forums and says you are a straight shooter. You guys started at the same time but you are a success and he is not.

I’m trying to figure out what went wrong for him. He did everything right from what I can tell. He followed the Action Guide, has lots of pages, did a video, has 500 unique visitors a day and yet he is not profitable. I find it hard to believe that it is impossible for him to make money with a travel website, especially about ______. He is considering a different topic.

I don’t want to sign up for SBI, do ALL OF THAT WORK only to get nowhere. Can you please weigh in on this.

—————————————————–

Hi S…………..,

I checked the website from your friend. 500 visitors is nice but that earns very little even on max profitable sites. On average, you earn the amount of dollars per month for the amount of visitors you have per day.

So 500 visitors a day -> $500 a month

Of course, this can be 3x less and also 3x more – depending on the market and your monetization skills.

To replace a normal job you probably need over 5000 daily visitors. Of course, you can build 10 sites with 500 daily and that will do it.

Also, if the site gets 500 daily after a few years, then OBVIOUSLY the demand is too low. (or there are just not enough pages and / or not enough links)

Find a niche with greater demand.

It’s very logical to me. Instead of blaming SBI and STAYING a victim, you need to learn from your mistakes and IMPROVE the next time.

The site is profitable it it earns $1 per day. You earn more than you pay for SBI.

To earn enough for a living, you need to go for it and not just try.

Most people try. That’s why most people don’t make it.

They do stuff halfheartedly because they already believe that this won’t work so they are not willing to put the effort into something that won’t work.

So now they don’t put in the effort and prove themselves right – but the reason why stuff doesn’t work is EXACTLY because they didn’t put in the effort and not because internet marketing or SBI philosophy (or many other) doesn’t work.

There is NO way someone can fail IF they put in the work AND learn and improve their skills.

But if you stay hard headed and keep doing the same wrong thing, don’t learn from, don’t ask anyone WHY this doesn’t work (cause maybe your ego is too big and you don’t want to admit mistakes), then yes, you may get 500 visitors per day after 4 years.

The reason why the site you gave as an example doesn’t get more visitors (I did a quick analysis) is because the keywords they chose don’t have enough demand. The site has enough pages but also not many links.

But the main problem is the demand. Imagine how many people want to go to that island that the site is about and how many want to play tennis or buy a vacuum cleaner.

Or how many want to visit that island and how many want to visit New York or Paris. Simply, the niche doesn’t have enough demand.

The SBI Action Guide DOESN’T tell you that with one website you will become financially free if you follow their guidelines.

But it does tell you how to make a profitable site – and earning $500 per month is definitely very nice.

The person who built that site followed the AG but chose the numbers on the low side. The site IS profitable – it definitely doesn’t lose money. In fact, it earns money without any work involved now!

And with 500 daily visitors smart monetization SHOULD earn you around $500 per month – doing nothing!

If that person is disappointed by earning $500 per month doing nothing, then maybe they should go to Haiti (writing this a few days after the earthquake 2010) and see what life can look like.

All you need to do is to learn from your experience, find smarter ways to get content up quicker and make more sites. $500 per month is in my opinion the average of what a typical SBI earns after 2 years.

Again, I am quite sure that that’s because the average person puts in the average effort and doesn’t really commit. Most people don’t think big enough and self-sabotage themselves so that the reality conforms to their beliefs.

It’s not SBI, it’s not Action Guide, it’s not internet marketing – it’s their average thinking, average work habits, average organizational habits and their half-hearted approach that creates average results.

Perhaps one example; I met Mike and his wife from Ireland at the SBI Barcelona conference. They asked me for advice about their site.

I was explaining to them for about an hour all the things they needed to do and they were SHOCKED at the amount of work I suggested. All that?

Earning money online is magical ONCE you establish your site(s). You don’t do anything and the money keeps coming in.

BUT…

Before that happens, the work involved in getting the site up is no different than any offline job and there’s no magic. There need to be hours of hours of work and there needs to be an intelligent choice of niche and keywords.

It’s VERY unlikely that you’ll earn thousands of dollars with your first site – as it is very unlikely that you’ll earn fortunes with your first restaurant that you set up or any other offline business.

80% of business fail in the first 5 years. And that’s the offline world statistics.

Is now a normal business to blame or the people?

So if many people fail with online business or SBI for that matter is it SBI or people? You know my answer.

I look to provide additional (hopefully smart and logical and simple) information on my blog to help people become smarter doing their online businesses.

The system works incredibly well, but you need to become very good at it. And the way to become really good at anything is to keep doing it and keep improving.

If you’re building your site in the same way this year that you did last year, you have not improved.

How can I make this better and more efficient is the key question that has to be in your mind day after day.

That’s how you become better at anything what you do and eventually become above average in anything you do.

If you want above average earnings, you need to become above average in doing this online business.

I really don’t think you need above average IQ, but you need above average commitment and put in above average effort.

The search Adsense shows up only on Google search page results, like here:

The other way of Adsense is the one you’re interested in, because you want to insert it into your CONTENT. This Adsense shows on other websites – and the internet is full of it as you know.

Here’s an example of CONTENT Adsense ads (I wonder how long will Google allow the Wisegeek to keep images near ads. They also use some other tactics to trick people into clicks on these pages below…):

If you want to know how much you’ll get paid from Google from putting ads on your site, you cannot find out that with any tools. BUT…

You can get some ideas by checking out your previous sites and perhaps sharing your stats here so that we have more numbers to rely on.

Here’s what you need to do:

1.    Calculate the average CPC (cost per click in your niche) based on the Adwords tool

•    Go to https://adwords.google.com/select/KeywordTool and enter your main seed word or site concept keyword – I’ll use tennis as an example

•    Sort by Global Monthly Search Volume and leave the Match Type to Broad, then take the top 20 keywords’ Estimated Avg. CPC and calculate the average (add all the numbers and divide them by 20 – double check that you really added 20 numbers)

•    Write down the number – in this hyptothetical case it would be 1,52.

2.    Calculate the average CPC based on the data from your Adsense account:

•    Login to your Adsense account and check the stats for previous month. Then choose the right channel (if you have more websites) and divide your earnings in that channel by the number of clicks. You’ll get a number which represents the average payout per click in your niche.

•    You cannot disclose this number (and any other) according to Google’s privacy policy BUT you don’t need to.

3.    Calculate the ratio of the Content Adsense and Search Adsense in your niche

•    You need to divide the Content Adsense number you got in the Step 2 by the number you got in Step 1. In my case: x / 1,52 (which I don’t have since I don’t use adsense on my tennis site . But for example, let’s say the x is 0.20.)

•    The ratio is 0.20 / 1,52 = 0,13. Which means that I get 13% payout on Content sites compared to the numbers I can see in Adwords stats.

I use Adsense on just 2 websites now. The ratio for site #1 is 14% and the ratio for #2 website is 9%.

I can see from my stats that when I research a niche and the Adwords CPC shows for example $3 on average per click, I can assume I will get around 10% of that – which is around 30 cents per click.

If I assume 5% CTR and that I get double pageviews on the number of visitors, then if I get 100 visitors to my site, I will get 200 impressions, with 5% CTR that’s 10 clicks, each click is on average 30 cents so I might earn around $3 per day with 100 visitors per day. Or $30 with 1000 daily visitors…

Please share your ratio for your niche (I suggest you don’t put your website in the comment link this time…) so that we can get a better idea on what Adsense pays on content sites…

The key section was this one:

We recommend selling your foreign language product as a completely separate product from the English version. ClickBank allows publishers to specify the language of their product when they submit their product for approval. When you do this, customers will automatically be sent to a ClickBank order form in the appropriate language. We also send out Spanish, German, and French receipts, as well as other notifications.

I also checked the Interned World Stats and came across this graph:

While SBI doesn’t currently support Chinese characters (but I hear that it will!), I decided to translate my tennis videos into Spanish – as there is obviously a huge number of people searching the net in Spanish language.

It’s a one time investment and the reward – earnings – keep coming in. I found a Spanish translator on getafreelancer.com, and he translated the sales letter and the videos for $450. He was also kind enough to add the subtitles to my videos too.

Setting up a new sales letter was a little bit complicated because SBI doesn’t have special characters like ñ, but as you can see you can use special HTML code to display such characters. Here’s the code for this letter in HTML: ñ

All in all it took me about 10 hours to set up the new sales letter, set up a new product in Clickbank and upload the new videos to my hosting.

The videos de tenis page soon started to rank well in Google since I gave it a few good links from both of my tennis sites and also exchanged a few links where I asked other webmasters to link to my Spanish sales letter.

You can see the traffic and the keywords for which is being found below.

There are also many affiliates on Clickbank that are promoting this page and sending lots of traffic to it. It’s now my third most visited page:

The earnings are not that great though; based on a few emails from Spanish speaking visitors, they worry more about online credit card abuse than English speaking visitors – therefore fewer buy.

But still, they visit my site, maybe subscribe to my newsletter and maybe recommend the site to their friends.

Here are the earnings this year:

I earned around $1500 in the first 6 months so it looks like I’ll get to around $3000 per year. That’s a pretty good extra income considering that it cost me $450 and 10 hours of work.

I am quite sure that once SBI allows Chinese characters, I will translate my videos in Chinese too. Reaching an extra billion people is definitely worth it…

So… Have you translated your products yet?

It usually takes me around 5 to 6 months before I get 200 daily visitors. I need to add at least 50 pages of content – probably around 70 to 100 – and I need to get quality links to my site.

But look at these stats:

As you can see, that traffic is rising very fast; at the start of May the site just started receiving a few visitors and a few weeks later it was already getting over 200 daily visitors.

And that’s not all; I’ve only published 9 articles by that time on that site!

What’s the secret?

Buying a high pagerank domain or a website which already has many quality incoming links!

I knew for quite some time that there is a huge market of domain names which are being sold and bought all the time but I never knew how to make the best of this system.

I then watched Chad Kimball’s video on buying dying domains and realized that it’s not such a big deal. I didn’t exactly follow his system but instead, I checked the DigitalPoint forums where there are domains and websites sold all the time. (you can even sign up for the RSS feed for Domains subtopic…)

I first bought a PR3 domain for small money to get me started. I then learned how to transfer a domain from  someone else to me – I had to open a godaddy account and start a new hosting account.

I then learned how to host that domain on godaddy, installed wordpress on it (automatic one click install with godaddy’s tools) and started a blog! I used some old, not very well written articles on that blog and it started getting some traffic and the pagerank remained.

It’s possible if you buy a dropped domain or a domain that hasn’t had content for some time that Google will remove the pagerank once it figures out that the domain is now a new website…

I then became braver   and spent some time looking for a PR4 or PR5 domain. There are many offers, but you need to check whether that website has had some pages indexed in the past with archive.org and if there are really quality links coming to it. Check Chad’s video I mentioned above…

Here’s what I did next:

1.    I found a domain that had PR5 incoming links from Yahoo directory and some other sites which seemed quite good. I could see from Yahoo and incoming links what this site used to be about. Yahoo had a description and incoming links had some anchor text.

2.    I then checked whether these keywords (based on which the site was created before) had good PPC in Adsense and also whether they had good demand in WT. The exact keywords didn’t have good PPC, but tightly related had. (Adwords suggests synonyms…)

3.    I then did the basic keyword research, decided on a niche with good demand and not too much competition and requested articles from my writers.

4.    Then I installed wordpress on that domain and started adding articles. Since the articles were optimized for certain keywords, the site had PR5 and the incoming links were tightly related to my theme, it started to rank immediately for these keywords!

5.    I’ve now created an author account on wordpress so that my writer can publish the articles herself! I now only check the site here and there, do some minor corrections with tags or categories and all the rest is done. The pagerank is already there, the articles are written AND published for me so all I do is watch the traffic and earnings. The earnings are not spectacular, but I am testing some Chitika and Adsense and other stuff to see what works best here.

I’ve recently started another SBI site from scratch but I think it will be my last one. Getting a PR5 domain where all you need is to publish articles is really worth the money and time which would have to be spent on getting those darn links.

Not only that, I now own 2 PR5 and one PR3 websites from which I can link to my other sites and which enable me to exchange quality links with others.

If you want to take your internet marketing business to a new level, I strongly recommend you learn how to find buy domains or even websites with quality links and high pagerank which you then »refurbish« and use your SEO knowledge to transform them into passive income ATMs.

Here’s some good info too:

If you’re interested in buying an old domain or a website, get in touch with Faisal from whom I already bought 2 domains. His email is easysign (at) yahoo.com .

I’m not talking blatant cut and paste but the more subtle grey areas. Suppose I wanted to do a vacuum review site (I don’t, just an example) then a review of SuperDuper123 will be very similar as its major plusses and minuses are the same, the keywords will be the same etc.

Is it all down to voice etc. or have I missed something? I would hate to reverse a site then be accused of cheating or am I’m being over cautious?

—————————————————————————–

To keep things very simple, my answer would be: use different words.

If you use different words, or in other words , create unique content, then no one can rightfully accuse you of cheating.

Of course, don’t copy the HTML of the template – that would be copying too. (Unless the template is a free template or can be bought and is sold to many customers!)

If you choose the same keywords, that’s not copying, that’s keyword research. If you’ve learned SEO from the same source, then it’s very likely that you will choose most of the same keywords in a niche and build the site structure in the same way.

All cars have 4 wheels and all houses have 4 walls. (I am exaggerating to make my point…)

A website on vacuum cleaner reviews following sound SEO will definitely have almost the same structure as my site.

The real worry here is then copying the content. Don’t do it.

If you write original content, then you are not copying anyone. The key here is that you are legally safe.

The next question is whether you can handle the emotions when someone accuses you of copying their site, but they are not legally right. (And cannot win a legal case against you.)

Can you handle that or are you afraid even of that confrontation?

How about people emailing you and telling you that your site sucks, that it’s just made to earn money through advertising and that the English of your articles is terrible?

If you cannot handle that, then don’t start a website.

There are all sorts of misguided people (I tried to find a really mild word to describe them. ) and sooner or later someone is going to send you a message and you’re going to suffer because of someone’s opinion.

If you KNOW that you are doing the right thing, then you’ll be able to sleep well. But if you KNOW that you are taking shortcuts, then your conscience will start bugging you.

I protect myself legally by getting real unique content and from my conscience (and not really from someone else’s OPINION) by doing things right so when a misguided person sends me a criticizing email, I know they’re wrong.

I can forget about that in a minute and live a calm and happy life.

This might be a stupid question, but do you think that making a living online is sustainable? In other words, do you see yourself making a living online 15 years from now doing the same thing?

A: You’re welcome and thanks for a very interesting question. I’ve considered and contemplated on this before – whether online business will work in 15 years or more.

Here are some of my conclusions:

1.    Having a job, especially now, is not safe. There were around 600,000 people laid off in USA in December – if I am not mistaken. So I don’t see a normal job sustainable in the long term. Even CEOs get fired. (I hope more bankers get fired soon…)

2.    The only thing certain in this universe is change. Everything changes and you have to change with the time to keep up and prosper. The Internet (for most people) is around 10 years old or even less. And see all the changes; Yahoo, Google, Myspace, Youtube, Facebook, … Maybe in 10 years there will be Shmooglehoo and we’ll just have to adapt.

3.    The Internet is definitely here to stay and in will just get faster and more interactive. People will still use the Internet in large extent to find information online and they will definitely search with keywords for quite some time. Large content sites with lots of text will do well for a very long time. There would have to be some extraordinary evolution and revolution in digital world to change that. Check my Interview with Ken Evoy on the future of the Internet for more ideas…

4.    The first future that I see is that search engines will read audio from videos (and audio files) and index those too. Meaning, if your site has embedded videos, Google will know whether the videos on your pages are relevant or not and will rank your pages accordingly. But if you really want to have a high quality site, then video is surely even now present on some of your pages.

5.    The online business is scalable while a job is not. If you have one full time job, you cannot have another full time job. But if you have one mature website, you can easily start working on another. I see stats from 2 sites that were not updated (one added a few C2 pages) in 1 year, I just exchanged a few not very valuable links. The traffic of the first one increased by 20% and the traffic of the second one by 25%. So did the earnings… Meaning; no work on the sites for 1 year still earned money and gave me enough time to start new sites or improve existing ones.

6.    The real key is not really in what kind of business you are but whether your knowledge (or product) is valuable. Do you know something that other people need? Can you offer products that other people need? I believe the knowledge is more important and more valuable. Online business allows you to share this knowledge with the whole world and be rewarded for that – of course many times more than if you share this knowledge with just a few people.

7.    The Internet will change but not in its key function – allowing people to search for information. You may have to change HOW you provide that information (text, video, audio, video conferencing, …) in order to benefit the most from the current state of internet, advertising and selling options. But if you have valuable knowledge, then you have nothing to fear. And remember, on the Internet, even knowledge of how to tie a tie is very valuable and can be very profitable.

8.    And finally, don’t put all the eggs in the same basket. People who invested heavily in stocks feel the pain now. (Luckily for me, I didn’t have enough money to buy stocks before. ) I am not a financial expert, but having some money in the bank, some in stocks, some in real estate and some invested in websites will definitely allow you stay afloat in any kind of recession. (Which by the way I don’t feel at all with my online business. Traffic is growing and so are earnings.)
