Making money with AdSense is one of the easiest ways to get started in earning big bucks online. What is AdSense and how can I make easy money from it? AdSense is a service provided by Google. You can open an account within 3 minutes and normally will be accepted on to the program within 24 hours. The only requirement is you have a website, blog or other online presence. In a nutshell AdSense allows you to display Google “paid search” Ads on your website.
When a visitor to your website clicks these Ads you are paid a small percentage of the money Google makes. This is often only a few ($) cents but as you are about to see these small amounts can literally add up to hundreds of thousands of dollars! In order to be successful and make money from AdSense you only need to focus on 5 key elements.
1. Keyword Research
2. Site Content
3. The Ads You Will Display
4. On Page SEO
5. Traffic
The Ads You Will Display
This is important because most people landing on a web page actually got there from a search engine such as Google. These people are looking for something. Each time they are presented with a website they are hoping it will display exactly what they are looking for if it does – it is very unlikely they will click any of your AdSense ads. So the secret is to display “most of what they are looking for” but not quite everything!
So they like your page but you leave them wanting more. On top of that you can test displaying different types of Adsense Ads. As a rule the less like an Ad they look the more clicks they will get. So while you may get a fair number of click-throughs on Ads like this:

You will generally get more clicks by carefully positioning Ads that look like this:
Image 2:
The reason that type of Ad can work better is because people (your site visitors) are often reluctant to click anything that resembles an Ad. If carefully placed the adsense above (see Image 2) appears more like a navigation option. On top of that Google delivers a better ad in my opinion as 3 of the 4 links above (image 2) are highly relevant where as only 1 is relevant in image 1. Hope this information has helped you make money online with adsense! Take action now and get started!

Great post! Depending on your visitor makeup, remember that text-based Adsense advertising may not be the best route for the most money-making opportunity. As a web developer, I can’t remember the last time I clicked on a Google text ad. It’s just in my makeup not to. If you can opt for a visual banner that advertises something specific or a product or service you use personally and will stand by, use that route. Again, this depends on your niche and what you visitors are more likely to click on.
Well us marketers and web developers tend to know better, but the average computer user will get tricked into thinking its a link to another page on your site with the text ads, and therefore more money for you. However, it all boils down to how good it works for your specific niche or site!
Hi Dino, what do you know about cpv marketing ? is this a new technique, i have been testing some softwares, see if i can make money online with it
CPV is great! Very cheap clicks and good traffic, but somewhat hard to get started. I’d say check out DirectCPV, theres a button on the right of my blog that gives you $25 bucks off with an account if you click on the link from my site!
I’ve been into blogging for quite some time and this is definitely a great post. I signed up for your newsletter, so please keep up the informative posts!
Adsense is a great way to make some extra money on your site but I find the ctr to be quite low some times.
Thanks Dino, I’ve been fairly reluctant to use Adsense until now, really because of the lack of control sometimes, but it is great way to start earning if you haven’t made any money online before…so I’m going to add some Adsense back onto my sites again, great post as always.
I truly loved this brilliant article. Please continue this awesome work. Regards, Duyq.
I use Adsense on many of my sites and it is my main income, and has been for the past five years. I tend to consider Google as my employer these days!
It’s a lazy way to monetise a website and you need A LOT of traffic to really make it work…but it does work.
My concern is with regards to the ads. As a site owner, you need to at least make your site appealing to your readers. I usually find some sites that is constantly bombarded with ads especially in the upper part of the site. As a result, I find it very difficult to find the start of the post.
