SSWT Internet Marketing Forum

My website complete one year on June first week. I am working only 2 hours a day. I want to earn $200 per month on next year.
Please help me?

I've been running Adsense for exactly one year now, and I generated $886.66 in that period from 2,706 clicks, which works out at $0.33 per click. $515.42 of that total has come this year, so have increased by 40% in the second 6 month period.

As can be seen, the bigger earners are those set up last year. It takes a while for the sites to become established and gain traffic/backlinks; more than just a couple of months. None of the blogs perform particularly well on their own, but are useful for channeling traffic to other sites by publicising them. Some of the other sites I will drop and try other niches.

I hope this helps illustrate how long it takes to get things established.

Whats the * terminated for. Is that there because you just got banned or something. lol

Ha ha, no nothing like that, just that the site was abandoned as such. I realised it wasn't working, so moved on. I only have limited MySQL databases with my domains and needed that one for a different project.

LOL,

Thanks for letting me know why it was there. You've done alright with earnings on a few of them. But truthfully you have to work out how much hours you spent on each one and how much you have earn't and then try and work out how much you have earn't per hour with these sites.

This is how I work out how much I roughly earn per hour for working on my sites.

Yes, some of them have worked ok and some of the others haven't really worked out as adsense earners. That's the way it goes, you've got to keep exploring new niches and recycling the ones that don't work. There's a couple that i've added this year that look quite promising, but three of the blogs will be dropped. I'm surprised the adsense alternatives site hasn't done better, but Google isn't really too keen on indexing it, I wonder why?

These are the ones that will get the chop I think, as it's a disproportionate amount of effort for the reward involved :

I won't be adding anything further new in the near future, but will be working to increase the traffic on all of the other sites by white hat SEO.

Yes, Now i reach near to $200 per month.

In the year 17th March 2007 - 16th March 2008

Google earnings increased to $1,324.92.

Still improving.
