I’m sure you already know a thing or two about Adsense. So I’ll skip the long explanation. In short, AdSense is simply a Google advertising program that allows almost anyone with a website or blog the opportunity to place paid ads on their website and share the advertising revenue. Ok, with that explained, let’s talk about making money with the program.
It’s really quite simple, not easy, but simple. You just have to attract people to your blog who are interested in what you are writing about. And guess what? I’ll show you how to do it for FREE. It will take work and some effort, but it will work. If you’d like to purchase tools that help you better automate the process, I’ll let you know which ones work. I know because I have tried many of them. Well, without further ado, here is my blueprint for AdSense success.
1. Create an optimized blog:
Blogs are a fantastic tool for promoting Google Adsense. That’s because, first and foremost, blogs are free, easy to customize, have the built-in ability to automatically place AdSense ads on your blog, and search engines simply love them. To get the most out of your blog, make sure you optimize it the same way you would optimize any other website. Add title tags and be sure to mention the keyword or phrase you are targeting for search engines at least several times throughout your posts. If you want to learn more about promoting and generating free traffic to your blog, I suggest you read Blogging Bonanza, it’s a really good report on how to make a lot of money from blogging.
2. Daily update:
Updating your blog/website is important for two reasons. First of all, search engines love new content. This will help you get higher rankings and get your blog/website found by more people, which means more potential cash for you. Second, people will come back and visit your blog/website if it is frequently updated and informative. I’ll tell you a secret. If you want to add information to your blog without writing it yourself, there are tools to help you automate the process.
3. Submit your blog to the Blog/Rss directories:
Submitting your blog and RSS feeds to directories will allow people interested in your topic to visit your blog and subscribe to your RSS feed. This also provides high PR links back to your blog, which will greatly help your search engine efforts. There is a very good free website that lists all the major RSS and blog directories. You can check it out here. http://www.masternewmedia.org/rss/top55/ Submitting your blog and RSS feed to all the sites can be time consuming, especially if you have more than one blog. There is software available that will allow you to do this much faster.
4. Combine your ads:
Make sure your AdSense ads blend in with your website, so it feels like a natural part of it. Make sure the background of the ad matches your website and the color of the ad text looks good and blends with your site. If you use Blogger.com, it will automatically combine ads for you.
5. Use articles to promote your blog or website:
This is a free way to target yourself and best of all, FREE traffic to your website or blog. Interested individuals, as well as owners of ezines, blogs, and other websites, will pick up your articles and post them on their websites if they are well-written and applicable. Here is a quick list of some of the best article directories and ezines.

If you want to exponentially increase your article marketing efforts, you can try using automated article submission software. This type of software will automatically submit your articles. This type of software will automatically submit your articles to over 100 of the top article directories, giving you more exposure and more back links. You can also use an automated service. I’ve done this, but it really slowed me down because I had to constantly make changes, just to get the article approved. It would take me almost 1 week to get an article approved before I can finally submit it. When I bought my own software, I was able to submit articles every day. So it really helped my marketing efforts.
Well, there you have it. My simple and effective plan of AdSense tips. Good luck and get to work!
