2. Housewives, retirees, mom and dads, who are just staying at home and have never made a dime on the internet have created full-time incomes by simply placing Adsense ads on their web site or blog.

These are just some of the “super AdSense earners”. You may have already heard about some of the people who fall under the categories above, as you get noticed when your on your way to making millions worth of cash.

Anyone, any age and gender can become money generating machine thanks to AdSense. As long as they have what it takes. But how does one go about this challenge? Writing articles is the key to AdSense. Using the right keywords in your articles and having Google ads on a certain site has become the most profitable way of marketing that anybody can get into. No experience and level of education needed. If you are not using this strategy, or may not be aware of it in the first place, chances are you may be losing thousands of dollars worth of extra income and still do not know it yet. This is one of the many reasons why writing original quality content articles is now the latest in marketing buzz.

Content and links. When combined together becomes a really powerful tool to a successful web site and richer individuals. Many internet marketing professionals are already aware of the value of an original quality content and how using keywords can drive targeted traffic into their sites from the search engines.

So why don’t all these web site owners write and publish their own articles if that is what is important? The simple and understandable answer is that it takes time to write articles, publish them and get targeted traffic to them. That is why they hire the services of those who can spare sometime to write articles that cater to their site’s theme but still turn out as a good quality, unique piece of work.

To get into the AdSense marketing business and start earning some good cash, ask yourself… Did you enjoy writing when you were in school? If you answer yes to this question, you already have an initial advantage over most internet marketing business owners that wants to make money online and doing it at home. Along with the boom in the AdSense market comes the need for sites with fresh, quality and original keyword rich content. This way, web site owners can have a steady supply of articles with the proper keywords that relate to their site contents.

So what do people have to do? Write quality and original content, keyword and phrase rich articles. Once you’ve got your articles down pat, it’s just a matter of getting traffic and optimizing your AdSense ads for maximum click through rates. 

It’s a win-win for you and your site visitors when you think about it. AdSense is a great way to compliment your site,  providing your visitors topic related destinations to click through to, while rewarding you for your efforts.

So who else wants to start earning money with Adsense? You? Everyone? Anybody? Google makes earning a few bucks on the side very simple, and if your serious about it, there’s no reason why you couldn’t grab yourself a piece of the action and start bringing in hundreds of dollars each day.

Yahoo! rised slightly, hosting 28.2 percent of the searches and MSN controlled 11.7 percent. No suprise, bringing up the rear & still unable to crack into the league of the big 3 was Ask.com with a 5.8 percent share.

If the ad is not showing, it simply means it hasn’t passed the set criteria. Try the “What can I do?” link for more information. You’ll also find you can change the criteria in which the tool searchers for your displaying ad. Information such as the Google domain, language and user location are all changeable. Thus, if you want to find out if english reading people living in Japan can see your ad, it’s simple to find out.

No longer just a search engine, Google is really spreading it’s wings. They’re after the $48 billion piece of pie that’s spent on newspaper advertising yearly. The ads are rumoured to start running sometime this week, so next time your on the train, flipping through the paper, keep an eye out for the Ads by Google! How would your site go in the local paper? It may be a question you find yourself consider next time you open a new AdWords campaign.

Checkout YouTube’s Alexa Ranking over the 2 years it’s been running…

Google’s ranking system was founded on the basis of incoming links counting as votes for a website. Simply put the more sites voting for you, the better chance you had of achieving good positions. These days however, less and less sites are actually going to go out and link to other sites just because they ‘like’ them. If everyone was actively voting, we wouldn’t have to worry about how to get incoming links. If our site was good enough, our links would come naturally, and link building wouldn’t exist.

Google’s aim has always been to return the most relevant sites (well in it’s eyes anyway) Your site can be highly relevant towards a search term but unless it’s popular and links are passing on this relevancy, your rankings in a competitive area aren’t going to be good. Google is very aware of how the internet is coming along. They realise things are a lot different from what they used to be 10 years ago. New technology and concepts are needed to determine site rankings, and prevent people from spamming there way to the top with irrelevant & low quality websites.

Another way search engines can determine if a site is popular or not is through toolbars! When you have the Alexa toolbar installed, it actively sends the information of all the sites you visit to Alexa. This information, along with the all information gathered from other Alexa users is then compiled into some pretty powerful statistics. Of course not everyone in the world has Alexa toolbars installed, but from the large group that does, it can make estimations of what your site is ranking on the internet, along with how much of all the internet traffics it’s receiving.

If you’re anything like me, you probably visit your own websites a lot. Heck that’s where I am right now. By using the Alexa toolbar installed, your constantly voting for your site and improving your alexa rankings. The rankings show up on the toolbar itself, and if you visit alexa.com they provide you with some pretty sweet daily trend graphs.

We can’t be certain that this is a thing Google is taking into account at this point in time, but they very much may in the future. Either way, it’s definitely a good thing to have installed. I’ve sold sites just through having great Alexa rankings, so if nothing else atleast it’ll give you one extra thing to boast about. It’s like golf though remember, the lower your Alexa ranking the better!

Obviously this has to be having massive effects on their profits, so why are they doing it? Well one reason it has come about is because of click arbitrage. This is when people go after very cheap AdWords keywords, in the hope people will click their ads, land on their site, and then click their more expensive AdSense ads. Yeh it sounds like a bit of messing around, but there are people out their which were making lots of money through this each month.

The new changes means each site used in AdWords is given a quality score. By looking at certain aspects of a site, and scoring them accordingly, Google is hoping to defer click arbitrage and spammy sites. When your site is spidered, if it is to receive a low score by Googles quality ranking changes, then your cost per clicks could raise to anything from 50 cents to $10! Even if your keyword has no competition!

The good thing is, like everything at Google, their quality control is fully automated. Yep it’s a computer. So all one has to do is to please the visiting computer bot, and your ads should not be effected at all.

Here are a few things I believe Google would class as a low quality site.

Having a lot of AdSense on your Adwords advertised landing page
Show them your not trying to click arbitrage & take your AdSense of that page Your site only having one page
If your site is a sales page, then fair enough you don’t want to distract your visitors away from the desired outcome (buying!) However you can still ad contact pages, FAQ pages & disclaimers down the bottom of your page.
Little on-page content
This is sure to set of triggers, you should show Google your page isn’t just trying to force people to opt-in by having content on the page
Site not related to the keywords searched
If your visitors are getting to your page through AdWords from users searching for flower and then  your site’s content is pulling up high paying AdSense such as lawyer firms which have nothing to do with flowers, then this is clearly going to be a low quality site for the visitor who clicked.
 

It’s hard to say how advanced their algorithm they have in place is, but these steps should definitely be a good start to ensure you don’t get slugged massive costs in the near future.
