$30 a Day in Adsense in Just 3 Weeks!!! Method Revealed

I thought I would take the time today to give back to this great forum. It was threads like this that lead me to where I am today.

The Method:
I stumbled on a way to make a lot of money with Adsense in a fairly short period of time.

Disclaimer; this method or model is not mine nor do I claim it to be. It is only a method that I use and I am sure others are using similar approaches. This is though the exact steps I used to gain me over $30 a day in Adsense in just 3 weeks. It ultimately went on to earn me lots more and is just one of many Adsense methods I use.

It involves finding micro product niches just like the Xfactor method but specifically focusing on seasonal niches. Here's why...

You are probably aware that exact match domains tend to rank higher and/or at least more quickly for their websites keywords than without...

But how many of you are having difficulties in finding exact match domains with enough traffic to warrant your efforts? I know that there are plenty of them out there still, but they are definitely much harder to find.

Seasonal product based exact match domains are still available in masses. People choose not to buy these exact match domains because no keyword tool will tell them the truth about these types of keywords. That is, they don't ever fit the "right criteria" that most internet marketers use when finding profitable product based niches.

Even though the tool may show the keywords only getting 540 or fewer searches per month, this number is just an average over the course of the year. Those keywords may be in reality getting over 3,000 searches per month and only for 2 months of the year. That's okay though because we can bank off of these types of websites for those 2 to 4 months. I go after these because...

A) The exact match domains are hardly ever taken.
B) These niches are so micro that almost no competition exists.
C) The combination of A and B above means that I am sure to take a top spot with little to no effort.
D) With many of these websites covering all the seasons, I am sure to make passive money all year around.

Okay, let's go right into getting your first seasonal money making site up and ready to go. First things first...

Keyword Research:

The internet is so packed with information and websites that we hardly ever have to use our brains to come up with ideas anymore. We can simply leverage the work others have already done.

Tradekey is a phenomenal website I use to find an infinite amount of product based keywords. We can even use the power of Google search to find seasonal product based niche ideas. Type the following into your nearest Google search bar...

site:tradekey.com winter
site:tradekey.com snow

Or...

site:tradekey.com garden
site:tradekey.com patio

How about...

site:tradekey.com beach
site:tradekey.com summer

Maybe...

site:tradekey.com costume
site:tradekey.com football

Are you starting to see how easy this is? Tradekey will list a ton of ideas to get you started.

Next, find a few ideas that you think might work and plug them into Googles Free Keyword Tool. The only thing that I look for here is that the keywords are getting searched for at least a few hundred times in the "exact" filter.

Note: Make sure to explore the keyword results you get from Googles free Keyword tool. Now that you know you can go for words that get under 1,000 searches per month (as long as they are seasonal) you have a lot more search terms to go after.

Then use Google Insights for Search to find out exactly when the bulk of these searches are going to come. This way you can know whether or not you will be able to get it into the top positions before then so you can make money from it. Google Insights for search also tells us that these keywords do indeed get searched on a great deal more over a short period of time. Look for the graph to show a large spike in search popularity. It will even show you search trends over the last several years!

Then all you have to do is make sure that the exact match domain is still available and buy it. I only buy .com, .net, or .org.

Onsite Content:

It is very important that you take the time to create a meaningful website with plenty of unique and readable content. Write the content for a human and not the spiders that crawl your website. You will have more success, rank higher and make more money with well written and insightful content.

What I do for every website is write a themed 800+ word article to include on my front page. From there I branch out to 4 other smaller articles that are tightly related to my main keywords.

For the themed article I use Free LSI Keyword Research - Searches the Top 10 Results In Google For the Best Theme Keywords It gives me a breakdown of what types of related keywords the top ranked websites are using for my main keywords I am going after. Then I will just make sure to plug those words somewhere into my article.

Promotion:

Since most of these keywords are going to be easy to rank for, you won't need to do too much in the way of picking up backlinks.

I use around 20 EzineArticles, 4 Fastsubmitarticle submissions, social bookmark each page, 1 press release to free press release directories and around 50 blog comments for each website. I only promote them for 2 weeks before they start to rank high enough to bring in traffic and earn me money.

Since they are relatively easy to rank for and promote, I can put these websites up in bulk and then the earnings really start to add up.

That's it! Use your top producing Adsense template to convert your traffic into clicks. I use all Wordpress websites and have had themes customized exactly how I want. I have also used the well known ClickBump Engine which works great for these types of websites.

A Brief Word:

I have received SOOOOO much great information from the Warrior Forum over the last 3 years. All of my projects and internet business ideas have spurred from this great forum and the nice people who were willing to share their successes and internet business models.

You truly can go from nothing to full-time income just from the free ideas and advice preached throughout this forum. It took me three years to call internet marketing my full-time job, but after much trial and error...I finally made it!

I wasted a lot of time trying to find the "perfect" plan or the "perfect" business model to work with. The thing that made the biggest difference for me was that I started taking massive action on the business models that I knew worked.

Even though I learned a lot from this forum, I learned WAY more from trying these methods out and getting firsthand experience with them. All the questions that I had were answered when I decided to simply put energy into making them work.

You can read every thread in here about Adsense and know more about Adsense than 90% of all Adsense publishers, but knowledge does not make you money.

So for those still struggling or wanting "so badly" to make this work, it's time to act on the knowledge you receive here.

"You see, in life, lots of people know what to do, but few people actually do what they know. Knowing is not enough! You must take action." Tony Robbins

Hopefully somewhere, someone will not only read about this method but will actually apply what they have learned here, take action and make some life changing money with their efforts.

Take action on this and let me know how it goes. I want to hear your success stories!

Matt

    Really good info here, some basic outlines but some truly great gems as well. Thanks so much for taking the time and I agree that many low effort sites can earn you just as much as one or two high competitive/traffic sites with the same amount of work.

      Good info. They must have changed the way they search with the new tool, it used to be only for the previous month, I used to check the trends when I searched with the seobook tool, I guess I'll have to be more careful. Good point. Especially seasonal items and electronics, TV's in particular, VERY short shelf life to be catching it on the down swing.

      I thought 27,000 searches in December for air conditioners looked kinda fishy

    So each of these sites does 30 per day?

    Do you buy product name domains? Like XBOX360REVIEW.COM (random example)

    Get any static from the companies for that?

      None of the tools out there give us a true estimate. They are more thank likely WAYYYY off. The best way and only way to really know is to give it a shot yourself. What do you have to lose? What do you have to gain?

      I have before and don't recommend others do it. You might get a letter telling you to take it down and hand over the rights to the domain. There are plenty of good non-brandname type websites...especially in the seasonal product based niches.

        I agree, but before Google changed to the new keyword tool they use now I used to crosscheck Google and Seobook/Wordtracker, but now it seems that Google is much more accurate.

    I think it's huge for everyone to find their own system that works for them. I remember trying to follow a lot of other people's strategies like Xfactors that would make me $5...maybe $10 bucks a day, but when I figured out my own way of doing things honestly by accident, I was able to have my first $400+ day with adsense.

    For all of you still struggling to make your first $100 check from adsense I can speak from experience that it is huge that you experiment widely with traffic sources and increasing your CTR which is paramount. Think big.

    Hi Matt
    I just want to say congrats on your success and thank you for sharing your method for your success. By the way, did you say you wrote 20 additional articles for each website and submitted them to EzineArticles directory? Is this where all your traffic are coming from?
    You also mentioned that you only use .com, .net, and .org extension. Do you have any reason why you don't use .info, .biz, or .us other than that many people view the extension as a spam website?

    I only thought or was under the assumption that social bookmarking, forums and press releases were the only ways of making that kind of money daily with AdSense. To be honest, I never took the time for keyword research, because in a sense, i still think it's a waste of time. My mantra is this. Create content, make it informative and catchy , and ppl will always come running back, like ex-girlfriends, to see what you have next, while increasing your daily AdSense revenue from Google, or any additional affiliate program. Don't you agree?

      Yes I agree. This approach is probably more complex than it needs to be. Any website that has great content has the potential to go viral and earn you Adsense money. You don't have to use this method as there are other ways.

      I really like the high click through rates and ease of getting traffic to convert with these types of keywords though. Oh yeah, and these websites are VERY simple to get traffic to.

      Let me give you an example...

      Last November I put up a Christmas website in a very small, tiny niche and promoted it for one week. The site probably had less than 15 back links and it made page one for its main keywords as soon as it got indexed. Sitting in the #'s 7 to 8 spots of Google, this website got me around 100 visitors a day and made me over $700 in a about a month and a half. With no more promotion, this website is still to this day sitting in the top 10 and made me another easy $1200 over this last holiday season. Not bad for about 1 day worth of work, huh?

      But I guess the point I am trying to make here is that I would have never found that golden nugget of a keyword unless I took the time to do the keyword research first.

      Disagree.

      Creating good content is a good idea, yeah.. but you definitely need to get some back links or you're not going to rank in google for your keywords.

      Your idea might work well for a blog that has people reading it and sharing it, but for a seasonal niche site set up for adsense revenue, you really do need to build backlinks with correct anchor text. People will not come running back like an ex girlfriend to see your christmas tree reviews if you don't show up on google when they type in "christmas tree reviews" ...

      Just a thought.

        Exactly

        You don't really get any repeat visitors with these types of sites. It is important to get your website ranked as high as possible to attract the daily searchers.

          Yessir. That's the truth.

          Also, regular visitors won't be clicking on your ads either. The people that click on your ads are people that are looking for something, click your site thinking they are going to find it, then see something better in the ads.

          That ultra-targeted content will make sure the ads are as relevant as possible.

      What????
      You must not be making to much money with adsense. Keyword research is the must important part of this method (all of them are important bty). I hear that all the time, create good content and they will come but sorry it does not work that way.

    What do you mean by you prtomote them for 2 weeks? Do you mean you spend 2 weeks doing the articles, submissions, bookmarkings, blog comments, and press releases or are you doing something else?

    Secondly, do you use 20 unique articles, or are they spun from an original?

    Thanks.

      Thanks.
      The onsite content and creation are all done within a day. But I would generally promote the websites through article marketing and blog comments over a 2 week period. If I think the site needed more I would do a press release or two.

      I don't spin articles anymore. Too boring and tedious for the crap it makes. If you write quality unique content and submit it to the article directories, you have a greater chance of that article getting used on other websites and blogs thus giving you even more back links. The key is to change up your authors resource box and vary your anchor links on each article directory.

      What I do is create a unique article for EzineArticles and another unique article for about 9 other article directories. Or I will just submit a single unique article to FastSubmitArticle and have them distribute my article to over 300 article directories. So I write no more than 2 articles per day, per site.

      Most of you here know how to get back links so I don't think I need to explain too much on how to get your website ranked. Especially for how easy it will be to get ranked for these types of keywords. If you don't believe me, try for yourself

      But listen, if you don't like to write, Adsense is probably not the right way for you to make money online, right? Too many people force this upon themselves when really they should probably go another route. Your chances of success in Adsense are much greater if you enjoy writing...I think.

      But I am sure if you WANT to spin your articles and have had success in doing so, I don't see why it wouldn't work. By all means, go for it!

        Hey Matt,

        Thanks for replying. So in your original post, you said you submit ~20 articles to EzineArticles. So based on the content above, I'm going to assume your creating 20 unique, completely original articles about your site's niche, and then submitting all 20 to EZA while varying the anchor text and sign at the bottom of each. Am I right?

        Thanks!

        Yes and no. Yes the articles are all unique and yes I vary the anchor text and resource box. But I get bored with writing 20 articles on a certain product. I may write articles on other subjects and just link back to the product niche website.

        I can write about 5 articles or so in an hour. So 20 artcles will only take me about 4 hours to write. I still don't outsource as much as I probably should, but that's cuz I like money and I like to write.

            I assume you are talking about the link in my sig....

            I do talk briefly about this process in my membership site, but not in the eBook. The book is more an overall approach as to how I make money with Adsense and then how to sell these websites for 10 to 20 times what they are bringing in per month. This instant rush of cash gives me capital to put up more websites in less time....or at least outsource more work to help me promote my bigger "keeper" websites.

            The membership includes the book along with hours of videos walking you through the exact process I use to rank my websites, sell them (if thats what you choose to do), and then reinvest into making more to increase your profits.

            I don't recommend selling seasonal type websites because they dont sell as well or for near as much as a website that makes money all year around.

                If you are having troubles getting a website ranked, press releases can certainly help. I've had websites that have jumped from page 8 to page 2 a week after the press release was submitted.

                For tougher to rank websites I may even submit a press release to free press release directories 8 weeks in a row. This means 8 press releases, 1 a week for 8 weeks.

                I don't have the list in front of me, but if you just do a brief search for free press release directories you should find plenty. I know there are lots! One that I use every time is BigNews.biz

        Congrats for your $30 a day accomplishment, I know that's also achievable.

        But why only limit yourself to ezinearticles.com? I know there premium membership is a blessing for those of us submitting articles on a daily basis, but only one directory?

        To keep your websites at the top 3 search engine positions for your primary keywords without constantly having to maintain all the sites targeting in your adsense portfolio, get a steady steam of good PR websites.

        Another suggestions is to use Xrumer and make Google crawl your ezinearticles.com content with profile links. That will also give you a boost in both traffic and added crawling to your money adsense site.

          I use more than just Ezine. I also use...

          GoArticles
          Buzzle
          ArticleAlley
          ArticleDashboard
          ArticleClick
          ArticleBiz
          ArticleCube
          Amazines
          ArticleFeeder

          But like I said, most of these websites have such low competition that I usually don't need to worry too much about adding a whole bunch of back links. Sometimes 5 Ezine articles is all it takes.

        Good question...

        With these seasonal websites I always start off first with Adsense. If I see that the CTR are low and/or are not targeted for my keywords I will then put up a few Amazon links.

      It really varies depending on the niche and CTR. Some niches pay more than others and all of them have different CTR. I would say generally though, to make $30 a day and totaling all of the websites up, you probably need to have around 500 visits per day.

        I have earned lot of money so that I can say that making money with adsense using site or blog has become easier than before. Every website owner should at least consider this program. Even if his site is just for information purposes and make decent money with AdSense.
        I cant say anything about methods......
        Yup, Adsense is a pretty easy way for anyone with an online platform to make some money. You really don't need to use another method if you are already succeeding with the one you are using.

      Thanks for an excellent post. Is mosts of your traffic to your index page or do you also get your internal pages ranked and do you use additional backlink articles for that part? Also, when you use fastsubmit do you first send your article to ezinearticles or do you use a different one for that purpose? Are most of your sites product related or do you do any informational ones?

        It only took me around 20 "seasonal" type websites to hit that mark after 3 weeks. Not all of them were earning and some were earning much more than others.

        I didn't really pay too much attention to CPC for these sites. It's too hard to get an accurate reading when they are only popular for such a small portion of the year.

        Yeah, 90% of the traffic goes right to the index page for the keywords. Although I did have a few sites that defied norms and had most of the traffic going to an obscure keyword on the inner pages.

        When I use FastSubmit I will give them a unique article completely different than what I give Ezineartilces. So really I write 2 articles... 1 for Ezine and 1 for FastSubmit or manual submission to around 9 or 10 other article directories.

        No informational websites. I use all product based.

            No problem. I kind of stumbled into it myself with one website. That website had immediate success so I decided to put up a bunch of sites "just to see", and to my surprise, most of them did really well. Even though they are short lived, they are easy enough to rank for and make more than enough money during that time to make it worth my while.

            It's actually FastSubmitArticles.com

            They take your unique 450+ word article and submit it to 300+ article directories. They charge $6 per submission. You wont have to sign up for a monthly membership or have to use any software.

      Thanks for the great share however can you kindly share how much your sites are making per day on an individual basis? It's a very unique idea to target seasonal niches but there are some down sides but it is a great open market.

      The reason is because you mentioned 1000-3000 Exact Searches. I'm working on my own networks of exact match domains but I was under the impression I need 5000+ Exact Searches for a profitable site on a evergreen search term.

      It would be agreat to know how a seasonal product of 1000-3000 is doing. Are you actually making substantially enough to proof their worth even in the peak periods?

      thanks

      Very interesting approach. Thanks for sharing!

      How far in advance of the start of a "season" would you create a site so that it was ready and ranking well? Do you do any on-going backlink building ... particularly during its peak season or do you truly just leave it alone once it is ranking on the first page of Google?

        Hi Cindy,

        As early as possible

        In all honesty though, using this method 8 weeks is more than enough. Remember though that these are the really low hanging fruits. If you do the research right, your website will likely start out on one of the top 3 pages. Then its all about giving it the momentum it needs to rank in the top few positions during its peak season.

        I try to give each website around 21 days straight of linking. Then I kinda just sit back and see which ones actually have a shot of making me money and which ones don't. I do a lot of evaluating and re-evaluating so I know where to best focus my efforts.

        Spring is right around the corner...perfect time right now to take action!

      Debbie
      Great question Debbie!

      I really think it is important to vary up your anchor text in order to make it look natural. I probably use the "main" keywords in about 65% of the anchor texts. Then I will switch it up using relevant keyword combination's.

      For example, if the main keywords were santa shower curtains...I might use Christmas shower curtains, holiday shower curtains, shower curtains christmas, etc.

      I have found that with almost all of my sites, everyone of them earn during the peak times as long as they are in the top 10. So even though the keyword tool might show well under 1000 or even 600 searches per month, get them ranking in the top 10 and you will see at least a dribble of traffic each day when they are peaking. Of course the higher they rank the more traffic you are going to get.

      I do research different for evergreen terms, but you can have a profitable site with well under 5,000 exact per month. There are other variables that you need to consider to know whether or not a site is going to be profitable. CPC, CTR, ease of rank...etc.

      I get the rankings fast because the niches are smaller than small. Some of them rank on page 1 or 2 as soon as they are indexed. Try out a few and you will see

    Thanks Matt, you are a true warrior.

    Just a quick question, you said:

    "What I do for every website is write a themed 800+ word article to include on my front page. From there I branch out to 4 other smaller articles that are tightly related to my main keywords."

    I want to know what kind of site are you talking about? Is this a standard blog with decending articles? or is this some kind of website with a permanant front page? thanks.

      I only use Wordpress sites. These micro niche sites are all permanent static pages with a themed LSI based article on the front. I usually just do a post and toggle the 'Stick this post to the front page' dealamabob. Simple and effective.

      Good ?

      Matt,

      Once in a while a post of significance pops up. Surpirised I didnt see this earlier. I guess the recurring theme to all these "platinum" posts is the the OP takes/took action on what they knew.

      Well done mate. Great example of leadership

      Cheers,

      Craig
