Hi, i am ganero and i am new to this forum.. and also new to adsense.

i would like to hear some advise and opinion from adsense gurus here in the forum,
after the newest optimization of google algorithm, how the chance of a new built micro niche site from getting money from adsense ?

until year ago, i still heard many had been succeed in making money by creating hundreds of micro niche site (some of their site even had only 1 content per site and still getting money).. is this still applicable now ? i don't know what happen to them now (still getting money or not) ..

btw,
i have already built one micro niche site (please take a look at my signature), registered it for adsense but unfortunately disapproved.
if above method is still applicable i want to make hundreds micro niche site like this.

please show me some guidance. thank you

    Its still applicable.. I'd know as I'm doing it myself. the only thing that's changed is that you'll need to think outside the box when ranking your niche sites.

    I guess we could help you get your adsense account approved if you tell us why it was denied in the first place.

    They denied a friend of mine application, because his website's content was related too much to intercourse. They should have given you a reason why it was denied.

    ganero, I can´t tell you why your site don´t got approved. I have had my adsense account for many years. But i can tell you that minisites still works, for me anyway. I don´t use Adsense on many sites. But I have like 10 sites in the US, all is top 1-3 on big G making me 5-10 dollars each per day.

    And they just have 5-7 pages each.

      Very good! more than 1500$/month income from 10 mini sites
      that's encouraging
      and Penguin didn't bother you ?
      i mean how you build your sites please ?
      i had a 5 pages site that made me 5 $ each day and i was planning to make a lot like it this summer
      but it was hit by Penguin and all my dreams are gone.
      Hearing this from you brother is really encouraging and made me think again.
      What you did to survive the Penguin and Panda please

      thanks

            Sounds to me like you aren't building a very quality site with 30% of the content being copied from somewhere else. Try to make a site that adds value and can provide the user with either information or a good experience and then try applying.

            Right now, I'd highly doubt your site getting approved.

    thanks for all your replies.
    my papaya nutrition site is only one month old, that's may be the reason for google to disapprove my application. the reason they give was : unacceptable site content

    if you haven't take a look at my niche site (at my signature) please give seconds to look at it as i need your advise here as i am lost and full of doubts in creating niche site.
    i use wordpress , smartone theme and have only 5 articles there. after 3 weeks, i check my site and it was in page #2 by using 'papaya nutrition' keyword.

    what about people who put adsense in only 1 article niche site ? would google inspect and ban it?

    From what I heard from other threads here a site must be 6 month now to get approved, but i don´t know if that is true?

    Your site seems fine, make more post and then apply again in a couple of weeks.

    When you have been approved to adsense once you can add adsense to other sites you have even if they just have one article(but I don´t think that is an good idea).

      You're site did not get approved because of "unacceptable site content".

      Meaning poor English and grammar. No offense but your site reads like your posts and could even be interpreted as poorly spun content.

      I would work on that before considering anything else like Adsense as I found it difficult to get through the first couple of paragraphs on your sight.

      You may need to outsource your content for the time being until you have a further grasp on the English language.

      I don't mean to sound harsh but I think others would agree on this.

      thank you for being honest, that's for our goodness. English language is not my mother language so i am finding difficulties in grammar even writing a short post like this. i actually outsourced my content. i pay $3 for my first article 'the awesomeness of papaya nutrition" , while other content is derived from ezine, mixed and switched one paragraph from one article to another, there and there, I also used spinner chief.

      i think i am not gonna able to improve my english skill so fast, so that's the best i can do for a while.
      I don't know but its not wise either if i just buy all 6 articles for each my sites..
      what do you think ? there's a lot of people out there facing the same problem as i am, hope they could find some answer by reading this thread too..

      thank you.

    Just so you now, my english sucks. I´m from Sweden but yes, I can try to explain a little bit about how I doing things.

    If I just look at this forum I think many focus way to much on backlinks to the sites. Yes, of course you need backlinks to rank a site. But my focus is not on the backlinks, my focus is on the keyword research. If you do a good research you don´t need 1000 backlinks to hit top 10 even though I always just look on the top 3, because there is where the money is.

    With all tools that is available now(Long Tail Pro, Market Samurai, etc etc) the number one focus that I have is to find a keyword that don´t need (so much) backlinks but yet still have a good CPC.

    So this is what I look for:

    - Top 3 in google for the keyword should have maximum 70-130 backlinks to page
    - The keyword should have like 3-8000 local searches per month (all my sites have that)
    - Top 3 for the keyword should not directly optimize for that keyword
    - The keyword should have a good CPC, all my sites have over 3,5 dollar in CPC
    - And there must be several advertisers that bid for the keyword (just check with spyfu free version)

    So, that pretty much it. When these things above match my keyword I have a go and produce the site.

    No, my sites did not move with the google update. I belive it is because I don´t have 1000 of backlins to my site. All my sites have 34 - 184 backlins and they are all in the top of google.

    My backlinks is from:

    - Web 2.0
    - Blog commeting (by hand, add value!)
    - Some article directors
    - Social bookmarking


    Yeah, thats about it. My newest site (like 4 month old) became number one two weeks ago. The keyword have a CPC of 4.23 dollars and 3900 searches per month. Just with some web 2.0 and some articles from some sites I was #15 on google after 2 month. After that I post comments on related blogs(or my VA does), if the posts have PR is it a +

    Another tip is to go slow, even If I target keywords that don´t have any competition I always look to be number one in 4-6 month, even if I know I can be number one in a month. The thing is with the sites I (and maybe you) build is that people don´t tend to link to these kind of sites. So I think it look very strange that a site like that can get 150 sites in a week and then none backlinks after that. It does not look good.

    Tools I use:

    - Long tail pro, Market Samurai and Trafic Travis. You only need one to check competition.

    - Instant Backlink Magic, great tool from a warrior to find relevent blogs to comment on

    - Serpfox to watch the rankings of the keyword

    - Keyword Researcher, another great tool to find good keywords

    Thats it. No fancy and expensive tools.

      wow, thank you very much for sharing with us.
      btw, have you ever banned by google ? do you have your own rules or tricks to make your site safe from google inspection ?
      google has no mercy and sometimes i imagine even when i already have sites that making me money, i still could get banned for the mistake i don't even ever realized.

      i plan to re-apply one more time for adsense and in case i am failing, what do you think if i just pay someone for making me an adsense account ?

      sorry for my bad english... hope you can understand what i am trying to say.

    Yes, My adsense sites target US only. English, I outsource the articles to Textbroker and The Content Authority, little more exspensive writers but I think it is worth it. 3-8000 exakt search from US, thats correct! Good luck!

    Your site looks really great; I like the visual appeal. You seem to be an expert or did you hire a designer?

    Also, it seems the adsense ads have already been approved on your site now?
