It took 6 months but it finally happened

LadyL08 · 06-26-2009, 09:45 AM

I got a check from Google Adsense! Hopefully I can start getting them quicker than every six months.

I barely get any traffic at all, but at least my clicks bring a decent amount each.

Why don't you get more traffic?

What's the prob?

Hi LadyL08 : Oh well it's a good start, you will soon be in the google UPS club lol..

I have a couple of sites geared up for adsense and they have google analytics but, the google results on traffic don't appear to be in line with the stats in terms of visitors...need to look more closely at this.

Hey LadyL08!

What are you currently doing to drive traffic? Let's see if we can collectively put our heads together and come up with some additional traffic generators for you!

That first cheque is a good feeling isn't it? Ok it may not seem like a huge deal when you look at the figures but it is nice to know you are getting something for your work!

Of course if the issue is traffic then that is something that needs addressing. What steps have you taken to improve it? SEO techniques? Article Marketing?

I'm still a ways away from a first Adsense check, although I don't really use it. Keep up the work though - it should be easier for you now!

My first and last Adsense check (well, not a check, a direct deposit) has been a $2400 earning.

I made a site, was earning $100-250 from Adsense, then it stopped

What happened to your site?

LadyL08 · 06-26-2009, 06:49 PM

I have learned the hard way. I have good Adsense click potential but I can't get ranked. The site has about 100 pages of content, I have over 80 articles in EZA and probably another 20 elsewhere. I have four different blogs with about 30 posts and 2 Squidoo pages linking to the site.

I used SEO Book Keyword Tool to get long tail keywords but can't get any of my pages ranked well enough to take advantage of the volume. The few that are ranked still get no visitors. I get less than 20 visitors per day. I'm thinking about letting it go and starting over on a smaller scale.

Congrats Lynne.

I have yet to get my first adsense check, I really need to put more focus on it, I'm pretty close though.

melanied · 06-26-2009, 07:33 PM

I wouldn't call it starting over, per se, but if I were you I would add some keyword targetted domains, on which are built smaller, tightly focused sites to your mix. They are much easier to rank!
