1. Your business model

It is very important to say this upfront – if you are  looking for a quick way to make a lot of cash, it is not going to happen. A lot of people want to simply “slap” a website together, put some affiliate links and then start a campaign. Then they want to proceed and watch the money roll in. This doesn’t work for two reasons: with business you only get back what you put in, and more importantly, you will get banned from Adwords altogether if you do this.

On the other hand, if you have a serious business and are looking for new clients, then you stand a chance. However, you still have to make sure that it makes sense, considering the kind of product you sell.

Look at it this way; you wouldn’t advertise on TV unless you believe the profits would justify the expense.

In any case, Google Adwords as an advantage over other advertising systems because it’s much more affordable and you only pay for actual results.

2. Your website

Besides bringing you qualified visitors, very quickly, there isn’t much more Google Adwords can do for you. Once they get to your landing page, you have to take it from there.

This means you still have to have powerful and effective sales copy on your site. Your headline must be strong and entice potential clients to find out more and eventually buy your product.

A lot of people send visitors to a website that simply is not optimised for conversions. Rule of thumb: if you’ve had over 200 clicks and no purchases, you should carefully look at your landing page and see if your sales copy is strong enough.

3. Your Google Adwords Strategy

It is very important that you have the right strategy when working with Google Adwords. Many people wrongly believe that Adwords is all about who can pay the most for a click.

That’s actually the opposite of the truth; when you have a well managed campaign you and attractive ads you get rewarded. You will end up in the highest position, however, you will pay less for your advertising than your competition.

This means you must have the right strategy. You will find it hard to make money from Google Adwords if you do not have enough knowledge about this powerful system.

To conclude, yes, you can make more money with Adwords, but only if you really know what you are doing – or simply get in touch with an expert.

This is where great adsense revenue is either won or lost and failure to do complete this step properly will result in you wasting a lot of unnecessary time on unprofitable niches or keywords.

There are many formulas out there.  They vary in their approach but their intent is all the same.  They all center around getting an approximate estimate of what keyword would pay if top ranking were achieved on Google for it and second, if we could ever hope to rank for it in our lifetime.

If you could ever rank for “cheap insurance” on Google you would be a millionaire but if tried to go after that word it would be until you were 85 years old until you got on page one for that phrase.

Put your yourself in the mind of the person looking up the word you want to rank high for.

You need to ask yourself this.

‘Are they looking to buy something or are they just looking to be entertained or informed?”

You consistently make money from adsense when your traffic is people looking to actually purchase something.

Again, the organic traffic you are getting on your blog or website needs to be from individuals looking to fulfill a need now!

When they come to your website and see your adsense ads that fullfill their need they will click on them.

Then, voila!

Google is happy and you are happy.

Here is a real life example of the first major mistake I made before I knew about keyword research.

I bought a site from a woman that ranks #3 on page one for sports highlights. It still does. The woman I bought the website from had ranked this website using StumbleUpon.  It was back in the day before Google owned them that you could use that social media outlet to successfully rank websites.

Anyway, I bought the website for almost six hundred dollars.  I planned to put adsense on it and make at least $100 a month.  I figured a five to six month ROI was not bad at all.

Anyway, to this day I probably have made $10 from that website.  Best learning experience of my life.  If I made fifty cents a day from that site I was clapping.  Turns out when people look up that particular keyword they are not looking to buy anything.  They are just looking for stats or current news related to sports.

It was not based on a “buying  keyword.”

To make great adsense revenue your keyword must

• have a high enough cost per click
• have enough volume ( monthly searches)
• be a buying keyword

If it is not then move on.  You will waste a lot of time and money if you pursue it.

If you are unfamiliar with Adwords, or I am using the wrong terminology, what I’m talking about are the ads that appear when you search Google for anything. Type in Seattle DUI attorney, for example, and you’ll find three ads right at the top of the page and then a list of ads going down the side of the page. If you click on the next page, you’ll see more ads. The way you get your ad up there is to pay a price every time someone clicks on your ad. The ads are placed by relevancy and by the amount you are willing to pay for a click (for example, in some cases a DUI lawyer click can run you upwards of $25!).

I’ve run a Google adwords campaign for about the last three months. I put myself on the front page in all kinds of different scenarios and with different ads. And the exposure was good. I’d usually get a couple of clicks a day. But do you know how many clients I got? Two. That’s right – two. Now, those two paid for the advertising, but barely.  That’s not how to really make money if you are trying to run an internet business.

The more and more I looked at it I began to believe that people I want as clients do two things with those ads. First, they look over them. They want information, not advertisements. Second, if people do click, they are price shopping – not my ideal client. Now, I’m sure there are good clients clicking on those ads, and it’s probably a combination of needing a better call to action on my site and the lack of interest in Google adwords, but I’m not completely sold on Google Adwords yet. But I’ll probably keep using them and tweaking it a little bit to see if I can find something that works.

Tip # 1 – Get noticed

One of the most important things you need to do when you have a website is generate traffic and get noticed. How can you do this? You have the option to fill out the request to submit your website to the search engines, but it may not do you much good. Most people find that submitting website to Google can take a good 6-12 months before they are listed with the search engine directory. They can end up gaining more interest just by posting linkable content and writing articles for people to read. Pay-per-click campaigns can also help you get noticed and improve your website traffic.

Tip # 2 – Update your content

It is important to post fresh content on your website. In order for Google to reward you with higher search engine rankings, they will look over the content you have on your site. Updated content usually helps you avoid some of the common problems that arise like broken links and old information. New content also gives the search engine crawlers a reason to visit your website often to scan for new information.

Tip # 3 – Keywords

To get Google to notice you, you must spend time researching the right keywords. Keywords are used when people are searching for your content and it helps Google easily match your website up with the search engine surfers and some of their advertisers if you choose to participate in the Google AdSense program. Keep your website legitimate by updating your content regularly and keeping your links fresh. This way you won’t get banned from Google because you are trying to manipulate the search engine crawlers by posting too many keywords and information that is not quality content
