The Best And Worst Months For Earning Money On Adsense

Do you have the google adsense code on some of your websites? Do you wonder why some months seem to make you a lot more money than others? Are you looking into ways of increasing your adsense earnings? In this article, I write about the type of events which can have a negative affect on your ability to earn money on adsense and what type of month for example you are likely to do better in.

I was advised about the potential benefits of google adsense by a friend of mine, around a year ago. He suggested it could be an easy way to earn a little bit of extra cash each month without doing a great deal of work for it. I already had a couple of websites and decided to take him up on his advice. I was more than impressed with the results, the two domains in question were well established however and were quite well placed in the search engines. My friend warned me that it is not so easy to make as much money with a new site as it takes quite a long time for the search engines to trust each new site, this is where the sandbox comes in of course. I understood what he was saying but I still wanted many more sites, they would not be new forever was my attitude.

A year later, I now have quite a large portfolio of websites which are mainly health related and are what are called information portals. Over the next couple of years I am planning to add a lot more sites to this portfolio as I have been very pleased with the results from adsense so far. I am not trying to say that I make enough money to retire on, but I am looking at the whole thing as a long term project, as the domains mature and with a lot more promotion of each site, I am confident that within a few years I will not only be making a lot more money on adsense but that I will have a portfolio worth thousands. It is like real estate in my eyes and there would be many people interested in taking the sites off my hands. It would give them a ready made income without having to start from scratch like I did. I have to say that there is no way that I would sell however, why would I? I suppose every man has his price though.

What my friend has noticed is that in some months you earn a lot more money than in other months. There has just been a big football tournament taking place, the world cup. This is the type of event which has a negative affect on the adsense earnings. Any event or situation which is likely to resort to less people sitting in front of their computer is going to result in a drop in your adsense earnings.

For these reasons August, July, June and December are likely to be the worst performing months. March, April, October and November are likely to be the best performing months.

If you notice a drop in your adsense earnings over the summer months do not panic, keep promoting your site in the usual ways and just sit back and wait for the winter to begin. Enjoy the summer while it lasts of course.

Make Money Online: Earning the Easiest Way

Since the computer and internet were discovered, most people have been attempting to earn big bucks from this venue. Although many have succeeded, still many are trying and wishing for their luck to change.

Many frauds and scams are now out there giving you false hopes about instant riches for a hundred dollars or so only. They will even provide you with evidences, testimonies and bank accounts to show that their schemes really work. Yea, maybe it works for them but for them only. When they already got what they want from you, they will disappear in an instant. So, be alert and cautious when dealing with strangers who promise you instant wealth.

However, this does not mean that you should refrain yourself from making any money online. There are ways which you can use to make legitimate money online.

If you want to create a business, you should prepare yourself for a series of working and studying. And of course, you will have to prepare yourself with lots of patience. Not everything in this world happens in just a snap of the finger. It all goes with a process.

Many people do an online business through writing. And one of the famous is writing website content and articles. You can also write news sheets or e-zine and maybe an e-book. All of these are popular and fast earning businesses online. Although they may not make you bill gates-rich, they can provide you with some extra cash.

However, if writing is not your forte, you can always engage yourself in other businesses available online. But do not forget to make first a website of your own. This can be a bit costly if you don't know how, but with good promotion, your site will possibly open many online business opportunities that will soon lead you to your riches.

You can use your website to advertise your own products or other persons' products. There are companies who provide good commissions on their products through affiliate marketing. Although this is true, choose the one that will be complimentary to your own website.

There are many options for you to choose from and none of them are instant.

Write about what you know, make it human, natural and original and you'll be off to a good start.

There are some great articles about writing articles to be found on the internet, and some great products too. I've reviewed a few myself and have a couple of firm favourites that have really helped me out. Sometimes with direct tips and at other times for some moral support to keep at it.

Articles don't need to be long. In fact, they're more likely to get picked up if they're not. This is the age of information overload. Short (250-500 words), and sweet (easy to understand and clearly presented) articles are what people are looking for.

Follow Me! Every article you write should have a good signature line. And it needs to contain 3 things: something about you, an irresistible invitation to your website, and a link to your website.

Your sig. line is an invitation over to your web place. Come to my site for... what do you have to offer?

Free advice? Articles? Product reviews? Free ebooks? These are all good things to invite people to take a look at.

See my signature line below and you'll get the idea, it follows the same 3 step formula - about me, my invitation to visit my site, and my link.

Once you've written your article you need to submit it. It's easily done, simply set up a free account somewhere like http://www.ezinearticles.com and follow the steps to submit your article. From there it will get plenty of reads and may well get picked up for inclusion in some ezines too. The more you write, the more you'll benefit.

Where the Money Comes In So articles and a good signature line will direct free traffic to your website. But how do you earn money once people get there?

I have 2 favourite ways, and here they are...

1. Google Adsense

Google Adsense is the system that lets you display Pay Per Click (PPC) ads on your website. When visitors click on them, you earn somewhere between a couple of cents and a dollar every time, depending on the value of the ad they click.
Tip! However, we ought to understand that successfully earning money on internet via any online business form not only will require some selling activities, it also needs other related supporting business activities. Whether it is in form of selling product or providing service, the money is still very much generated by form of “Selling”.

2. Affiliate Marketing

Affiliate marketing is a way of earning money by selling other people's products. The place to go to find out more is Clickbank, the number one affiliate program. The product? ebooks. Clickbank authors usually pay between 20-60% to affiliates who induce a sale via a link to the product sales page.
