The Only Real Way To Make Money on Google Adsense...

7 replies
...is to stop trying to make websites that make money on Google Adsense.

With Google's recent Panda updates, and the general move towards rewarding quality, helpful and insightful content with good page rank, the only thing internet marketers can do to get traffic and sales is to produce high quality content.

Search Engine Optimization as we know it is gradually dying and I believe it is living on borrowed time. Old school internet marketing approaches may have worked for a lot of people over the past 10 years (and got a lot of people rich in the process), but I really think we're about to move into a new phase where little tricks and hacks for improving page rank (and let's face it, artificially cloak how useful a page is) are going to become less and less important.

There are some really clever people working at Google - the page rank algorithm will continue to be refined to serve searchers with the most useful content out there.

Here are my predictions for the next 10 years of internet marketing and SEO:

More important:

+ increasingly high quality content
+ social media discussion (Google+ is going to matter a lot)
+ quality of back links
+ accessibility - e.g. placement of images, adverts and content in relation to each other
+ linking OUT of a page to support the content on it with references
+ verified sources - e.g. authors exist on services such as Facebook, Twitter, Google+
+ website performance

Less important:

+ number of back links to a page
+ keyword frequency and positioning
+ domain names
+ domain age
+ domain extensions
+ content age

What are your thoughts?

    I think these will be more important in future also without them there are no Search Engines.

      Do I care if content has existed for 5 minutes on a .co.whatever domain though?

      I want the best content from my searches. If it happens to exist there, I want to see it, regardless of if there is something half as good at the-exact-keyword-phrase-i-searched-for.com.

      I'm not saying they aren't already important. However, I believe we're seeing signs very recently that they will completely begin dominating influences on page rank, at the expense of those that may be considered more traditional.

    I generally agree with the nature of your post, although I would have to disagree with the idea that SEO is living on borrowed time. It is true that it is going to get increasingly difficult to artificially portray a site as being more influential than it actually is. In particular, you make a very crucial point about the growing importance of social media marketing. There has been a lot of talk in recent weeks about Google Plus and the role it will play in making or breaking incomes in the years to come.

      Thanks for your thoughts. I wonder if the complete flunking of Google Buzz makes some hesitant to hop on board with embracing Google+. Certainly it seems like a social product much more aligned with Google's core competencies.
