Even though i haven’t reached $10 on my Google Adsense account, but i read a few sites and they really give good advise on how to boost your Google Adsense earnings. I’m still trying some of these tips to gain more from my Google ads.

Here are 5 steps that you could do to increase your earnings;

1. Most of the people that use Google Adsense said that the Large Rectangle (336×280) are the type of ad that bring most revenue. Most of them said that once they change to this type of ad, a significant increase of their CTR happen. The cause of this to happen? The links provided in it is just like a normal link.

2. Make use of the Google Adsense’s color palette. Design your ad so that it doesn’t look like an ad. Design it so that it blends together with your blog/site’s contents. (please refer to my google ad below).

3. Don’t ‘hide’ your ad. What’s the use if you join the ad program and not show them to your visitor? It won’t bring any clicks and the cause of that, NO MONEY! Well, i don’t mean hide your ads as in putting it in invisible mode,but merely ‘misplacing’ your ad. Make sure you put your ad where people can see them and you’ll see an increase in your earnings.

4. Focus on a specific target or topic when you’re posting. This is so that the ads mechanism can read what the main content of your post and find related links/advertisers according to your post.

5. Relevant ads. This is directly connected to the 4th point. You have to make sure that the ad that is displayed is similar to what you are posting. If you post about programming but your ads display guitars. What’s the use?? Right??

Well, I’m trying very hard to generate atleast some income from Adsense. Hope it happens!!

Having a website that generate steady income is appealing to everyone ( me included :P). But people out there that is attracted by this idea is sometimes careless to think that they ONLY have to design attractive websites and leave it there and visitors will somehow magically come. Well,it doesn’t work that way.

You HAVE to promote your site in order for people to come visit and read your blog/website’s content. I’ve read some article all over the internet and i narrow it down to 5 simple steps that you guys out there with traffic problem can follow.

5 SIMPLE STEPS TO GENERATE TRAFFIC TO YOUR SITE.

1.There are services out there that provide cheap advertising and can confirm traffic to your site. For example, Google Adwords. This service allows you to create text and link based ads and they advertise your ads through their search engine and also through people that participate in their Google Adsense program. This means that, you are marketing your website GLOBALLY and not just at a single website, which means this will bring a lot more traffic than just advertising on a single website.

2. Write articles. (Like i’m doing right now). This can help increase your website’s traffic tremendously. Don’t worry if you don’t write well(like me :P). It’ll become better after much practice. After you finished writing, submit them to several article directory.

3. Join a traffic exchange service. Most of the traffic exchange service nowadays are free, but you can’t just join and sit back and wait for the visitor to roll in. No, sadly, it doesnt work that way. You have to do your fair share of work by ‘paying’ a certain site through the exchange link’s credit system. This way that you can get paid(credit wise) to advertise for them and vice versa.

4.Create a network with other sites. Link to a website that is in the same category as yours and ask the webmaster of the site to do the same. This will not only give you free advertisement but also can increase your site credibility if your site is linked in a popular site.

5. Last but not least, if you just started a company website, don’t forget to put the address on business cards,banners,fliers and pamphlets. This will give your site some traffic and also increase your company’s credibility on the eyes of the people that saw your advertisement.

Hope you guys can benefit from these tips that i give. Would love to hear some feedback!!
