All great info. Thanks
I am just starting out so 2 quick questions. Do you use other keywords for subdomains and/or pages? and does that help rank better? Also, have you seen better adsense results with image or text ads? |

1) Buy domain name 2) Throw up a wordpress site (or joomla, or static, etc) 3) Build 10 pages around that keyword name 4) Get a quick submission out to: a) rss director sites b) msn,google,yahoo c) at least 5 article directories with one 500 word article pointing back to your site d) social bookmark to at least 5 sites Just find what works for you, and duplicate it...on a large scale. Again, look at purchasing domain names like it's a cost of doing business. I'm into the adsense business of building sites to make money. The cost of $7/domain name is simply a cost of doing business. | |

How many "mini sites" do you own and how much does a site like this (5-10 pages, keyword in domain, low competition) earn from Adsense per month (on average)? Just looking to somewhat "guesstimate" my earnings once I get ~50 websites online, so I can set myself a goal.

Oh I see.
So Id get www-dot-jennairgrillsreviews-dot-com (or something) then my other 30 pages or so would be long tails like is the jenn air grill any good and jenn air grill review? Im not too fussed about domain name cost. I was a little concerned about that firefox plug in that blocks adsense ads but I figured that not everyone will have it installed and I gotta just get going with this |

I own many mini-sites
I started small, and move upwards when i started to achieve financial success. It's hard to give you an approximate earning per site because that's dependent on a TON of variables. For instance: I have one site that makes a KILLING around Halloween. It involves something that people put on, might be considered "Sexy", and is functional for either scaring other people (unlikely) or turning them on if worn by the right person (very likely). That site has maybe 8 pages and is targeted for a certain keyword term. That keyword term IS my domain name. It doesn't make jack squat throughout the year, but will cover my mortgage and car payment for 3 months.I would make small goals for yourself at first. Ie- achieve $1/day with 4 sites. You're giving yourself a chance 4 times over to score on a domain niche that might make you a lot more than $1/day. Now you're focused on getting at least .25/day from each of your sites. Once you've accomplished that, you've learned several valuable lessons. You've learned what you're ctr is. You've learned what adsense placement on your site works, and what doesn't. You need to tweak, and sit back and see what works and doesn't. Once you've narrowed down what works, move on to the next one. I'll give you an example site of mine which "works" for ctr. Xmas Recipes! Christmas Recipes is a site i made for xmas-recipes. Don't focus on the autoblogging or anything else but the design layout. I use this template on a bunch of sites in different colors formats (less sidebar boxes, more sidebar boxes, etc). But what I want you to see is how i draw attention to the adsense block in the upper right. Visitors ASSUME it's part of my navigation, but what i'm doing is integrating the design of the site and getting into the psyche of the visitor. This is just one theme template that i've had designed especially for my adsense efforts. I've got a lot more, but what i wanted to show you is HOW the design of your site plays into the success of your earnings as well. Oh, and did you notice the domain name? ![]() Quote:

I'm new to this. I wanted to know, what is the Micro Niche Finder? Is that something you have to pay for and where? Also, is there a free way to find a list of micro niches?

aren't you guys afraid that every Tom Dick and Harry is going to copy this now? Also, some guy is going to take this and make a WSO out of it, then a Clickbank product, then hundreds or thousands of people will crash the party and ruin the niche. No?
But let me say that it is very kind of you guys and I learned a bunch from reading this thread. I'm "just sayin'". |

Lots of potential free website traffic here. |

Na, 99% of the people don't act on free information anyways. I may do a WSO in the future, but that's not my main goal for information sharing. And the site is listed was already listed in a WSO of mine previously. Plus, i've got the attitude that we're all in this together and we can all benefit from each other in ways that might seem unknown to us today.
I've been around IM and Webmaster forums for years. You pick up things here and there and realize that not enough people like John post up information like he does for adsense. He's laid out more info in this thread to make several ebooks David |

I've taken action and am thrilled to be ranked 9th in Google for the keyword/domain name in just a couple of days.
However, as I have followed examples given here and set up a product site, the 1-8 results above me are all big name review sites. Is this a problem that can be overcome or should I settle for first page and move on to the next site? Do others have this problem? |

However... I believe that if you truly have a passion for creating a HUGE site on a subject that moves you, that drives you... Then you are very likely to succeed with a lot of traffic (In due time, that is). Your approach by using 1 blog, and going for a subject that is general (instead of dominating 1 micro-niche at a time), is quite opposite of my approach that I have come to trust. This approach will not bring fast money, or quick rankings. But it CAN make you a lot of money in time so long as you stick with it. Your best bet is to go the SILO route and start finding long-tail keywords for your categories, and start getting your blog out there. It's a tough battle, but if this is your chosen niche, then go for it. - John | |

The basics? Keyword research? Content Advice? All of this stuff is so basic, and everyone should know about the "small niche approach". Nothing has changed over the last 6 years with this approach, and nothing will change for it over the next 20. And about competition, there are several millions of these niche keywords. I'm not kidding. - John | |

top listed sites for your keyword were high traffic, high PR sites, before starting your niche. You always have to make this last stop in your research before diving into a niche. The search numbers may be great, the competition numbers low, but if the leading sites for your keywords are sites that would be more of a fight than they are worth to beat, then... I would have moved on. - John | |

I've tasted some of the Adsense success so it makes it much easier for me personally to keep going....but the sad truth is that alot of people are simply too lazy or un-motivated to make something like this work. There are people that want the easy way out, and unfortunately they won't find it here! | |

True. This thread isn't really about some groundbreaking new method. These basic concepts can be found elsewhere, even down to some of the details.
What this thread does for me though, is confirm that this does work and gives me a slight spin on something I'm already doing. As for every Tom, Dick and Harry taking off with this; well, there are thousands upon thousands of possible niches out there. So, there's lots of room. Second, as mentioned earlier, this will take WORK. Hours and hours of work. Plus, it does take a little bit of market smarts. A great deal of people who try this will likely put up a few sites, and maybe start earning $.50 a day and realize they've got a hard row to hoe. At that, they'll pop over to those juicy $25+ affiliate commissions on Clickbank. Jason |

I have discovered that my niche has a very high search volume for a 'misspelt' word. There is a product called 'oneword' which is highly searched for as 'one word' with a minor variant in the characters.
Is it recommended to deliberately re-work my posts to reflect the incorrect product name to achieve high rankings for this term, at the sacrifice of rankings for the more competitive correct product name? I am reluctant to change everything with such a new site which is still finding its feet in the rankings anyway. |

Just wanted to let you know, I spent yesterday cleaning up the adsense on the sites that had it and adding it to those that didn't. My sites are all blogs, but I took your advice and put adsense at the top of each post and made it blend like a menu would look. Got my first four adsense clicks last night and another this evening while I was looking at my results. I'm going to try a static site next and see what happens.
Thanks for all the info! |

I think the best lesson here is that people should lay out a path and stick to it. Too many people are always searching for the best new thing that in the end they don't do anything. You have found a way back to your passion. Congrats to you ...

That person suggest to do it on a separate new domain instead of adding any pages using the misspell method on an established domain that could get de-indexed. So it might be worth it on a new domain if their is a lot of searches for that term. I started looking into doing this a while back and found some really juicy misspells form some high paying keywords with decent adsense amounts. TedK | |

Got a quick question...
Have you ever had any complaints or warnings from Google for having so many small, targeted websites all running Adsense? I mean, they don't really add any value to anything. Just wondering.

If you think you can do it, you are right. If you think you can't do it, you're still right.
Success doesn't come to you the way you think it will, success will come to you the way you think. If the dream is big enough, the facts don't matter. |

Great ideas John. I'd like to know what criteria you use on the product/keyword selections. Do you target by CPC or search volume.

I have been lurking around this thread for several days and was motivated to take action. I built a site and at the current time it only have one article. I did purchase a brand domain name, though. I saw this morning that the site made .24. The thing I found interesting is the site is not indexed yet. I did submit it to some social bookmarking sites and the Digg submission is #8 on the first page of Google.
My plan is to add 9 more articles. I have the KWs selected. Social bookmark the posts, submit RSS feeds and I have a link building strategy that has worked pretty well in the past. I will be using it to build links to the posts. I hope to be done by the end of the weekend. From there, I will see where it takes me and begin working on the next site. I would like to thank everyone that has contributed to this thread! ~Marj |

misspell, but do not go too far in all of your content by misspelling the keyword, just enough to get it ranked: title tags, URL, etc. Also, you may not see all of that traffic because any misspells searched for on Google, as you know, get that "Did you mean.....?" so you may see lots of searches but they may click to search for the right spelling afterwards. - John | |

Update On My Template Layout: After starting this thread, I deleted all of my headers, and every site's CTR increased. Ugly sites now, but I'll not be using any more headers. I ran this test for months and months now, and to see such a drastic increase in earnings in such a little time of removing headers, I'll be sticking to this setup. This is what I mean whenever I say test, test, test & test some more. Testing never ends. - John |

Hi John,
First of all congratulations. Second of all thanks for sharing. The more you give, the more you get. Third of all, I would really appreciate if you can answer my questions. BTW, I've taken so much action since finding this thread this morning (I've bought MNF and found a niche/s with SOC <20). Your advice would be very much appreciated. Let's say my niche/keywords are Canon 10 MP digital camera accessories Nikon 10 MP digital camera accessories Olympus 10 MP digital camera accessories Panasonic 10 MP digital camera accessories 10 MP digital camera accessories 10 MP digital camera accessories reviews Let's assume that all of them have similar search volumes (~500-1000/month), similar commercial intent and similar SOC. Question 1: Please advice me if option 1 below or option 2 below is what you would pick. Option 1. Should I build four different websites on the four domain names "Canon 10 MP digital camera accessories", "Nikon 10 MP digital camera accessories", "Olympus 10 MP digital camera accessories" and "Panasonic 10 MP digital camera accessories" (BTW, there are more than four brand names for the actual niche that I'm talking about) OR Option 2. Build one domain name for "10 MP digital camera accessories" or "10 MP digital camera accessories reviews" and have the "brand name 10 MP digital camera accessories" as categories/pages? Question 2. If your answer is option 2, would you pick "10 MP digital camera accessories" or "10 MP digital camera accessories reviews" as the domain name (assuming they're both available). I'm asking this because on my actual product name keywords, there is no "reviews" at the end. Question 3. Now that you've removed your header graphics, are you still keeping the graphic at the top of the right column/main menu? As I understood, you have something like a sidebar on the right hand side where you have the main navigational menu and you also mentioned that there was some kind of a picture on there. I get the feeling that you have the picture 'above the fold' and the menu 'below the fold' so that people don't get distracted from your adsense block and instead click on the navigational menu. So is it like, the top half of the right hand side bar is a graphic like 160 X 300 (half the height of a 160X600 adsense block). The the bottom half of the side bar is your menu which also around the same size? Are my thoughts on that correct? Thank you very much John and I really really appreciate you sharing this valuable information. Chucky |

If you think you can do it, you are right. If you think you can't do it, you're still right.
Success doesn't come to you the way you think it will, success will come to you the way you think. If the dream is big enough, the facts don't matter. |

Hey XFactor,
Is it against Adsense TOS to have the ad block below the title and above the content? I've read that you need some sort of separation so that the ads are differentiated . Google says, “Ads shouldn’t be placed under a title or section heading in a way that implies that the ads are not ads.” This is against TOS: Some blogs I've noticed have written "Advertisement" above the ad block to make the distinction. |

Today's Hot Deals suggests that the links below should be clicked on to get good deals, therefore they are encouraging clicks. If you were reviewing a grill and just put "Weber RoastMaster Grill"...that's not suggesting you click on the ads below...whereas if you put... "Deals on Weber RoastMaster Grills" that would be against the TOS. I agree it's a fine line and it's purely subjective to the reviewer, so it's definitely a risk you are taking. Much like John and other successful Adsense guys like Tim Gorman will probably tell you, this technique can be used if you are "careful" and don't blatantly promote the ads with your title. | |

So in order to be 100% certain that you're not breaking the TOS should you avoid placing an ad block in this space? | |

![]() I personally don't let it deter me as I have been using adsense for 2 years and have never had a site using this method banned or even questioned...matter a fact I have never had an e-mail from the Adsense team regarding anything ever! *Knock on Wood!* My personal opinion is that if you aren't blatantly trying to draw attention to your ads you should be fine...but you are right, if you want to avoid this potential bannable offense, you shouldn't do it...but there is a million other things that they can ban you for, I wouldn't let this one scare you if you aren't blatant about it. | |

[QUOTE]Update On My Template Layout:
After starting this thread, I deleted all of my headers, and every site's CTR increased. Ugly sites now, but I'll not be using any more headers. I ran this test for months and months now, and to see such a drastic increase in earnings in such a little time of removing headers, I'll be sticking to this setup. This is what I mean whenever I say test, test, test & test some more. Testing never ends. - John [/QUOTE Hey John, that's a great twist. The only thing is that now this whole thread will have to be retitled! What would you suggest...$500 a day with Adsense? |

Congrats xfactor,
this exposes the myth that people should only build big authority sites if they want to last in the search engines. |
