Many people will tell you that joining Google Adsense is the easiest way to make money online. Is it really? No doubt, Google will pay you when visitors to your site click on Adsense ads. But how many people like to click on Adsense ads. Not more than 20-30 for each 100 visitor to your site.
Mostly the earnings per click will be like a few cents. To make a few thousand dollars each month using the Adsense Program, you need to develop a lot of traffic to your site.
Here lies the trick. You need a lot of traffic to succeed with Google Adsense. Building traffic is not an easy game. In my opinion, traffic is the most important thing a new comer to the world of internet marketing should learn.
So you are not able to get enough traffic? You will come across sites that will tell you in order to make money with Adsense you need to focus on niches where earnings per click are good. What are those niches? These are niches like Credit Repair, Mortgage and Student Loan. Advertisers like to pay up to $10-20 per click on Google Adwords.
But hey, they are paying this much money for a click on the Adwords Search Network. Many will pay only $2-5 while advertising on the Content Network. Adsense is in nutshell the content network.
Many advertisers understand that traffic on the content network is not targeted, so they pay less on the content network. Google keeps a good percentage of it as its commission before it pays you. Google never discloses how much its percentage is.
You only will get between $ 0.5-1 for each click. Getting traffic to a highly paying market niches is also not an easy job as many people are competing to snatch that traffic from others.
So why would you want to waste traffic with Adsense when you can get a much higher payout by displaying affiliate products using affiliate programs like Clickbank, Commission Junction etc?
You can even join a CPA Network that can pay you $2-5 for getting a form with two to three fields filled. In some cases, by simply getting a zip code submitted, these networks pay you like $2.
While promoting Adsense, always keep this in mind that Google can all of a sudden terminate your Adsense account for no apparent reason.
