There are three things that are a factor in succeeding with an Adsense business model and some common concerns I’d like to address. These are all in my opinion of course.
Time – Depending on the work you put in, will partly be responsible for the success you are having. If you are doing this part time, you going to have to wait longer. There really aren’t any shortcuts or tricks you can do to game Google. And besides, if you mess with Google, you will lose. If you don’t believe me, just look around at any internet marketing forum.
If you want to test a niche, create an Adwords campaign and monitor the impressions over a 24 hours period on page 1. This will give you an idea of what traffic is like, and if people are clicking. Of course, be sure to limit your budget or you may wake up to a surprise. It won’t cost as much as a domain and it will take you a lot less time and effort to do it. If you’re wondering why your website isn’t doing well then there is something you have to ask yourself. How can you gauge a niche if you aren’t backing it up with any links? Get it on page 1, even better in the top 5 or 6 and see what is happening before you make a decision.
It’s crazy to believe that you can get a website indexed on the first page of Google. Sometimes it happens, but the majority of the time you will end up on page 2 or 3. You want websites with 10 pages and a lot of back links to all of the web pages. Put in a few months of work and then check back. I know it’s not going to make you a millionaire over night.
Work – You’ve got to go, excuse my phrase, “balls out” every single day and treat this like 2 full time businesses and then some. Part time will get you there eventually but you can’t play with it or you will be struggling. If you have other obligations and have to worry about putting food on the table then definitely steer away from the Adsense Masters Course until you have the rest of your life sorted out. This isn’t just pop up a site and rake in the money, regardless of what others would have you believe. If you can dedicate some time here and there, great! But don’t expect to be making $100/day or whatever you’re being promised after a few months of part time efforts. Besides, most people’s part time efforts are not even part time.
Mistakes – You have to make mistakes, it is the only way to really understand this business model. If you can’t make mistakes, you won’t advance and you won’t make any money, it’s that simple. I’ve been doing this for years and can’t tell you how I know something is going to work or not. Of course I can layout guide lines and tips (like Xfactor has), but the reality is that there is an element that just comes from within. You might spend a couple of weeks with everything you’ve got, to find out that the site wasn’t worth it. This is the reality of it. You have to accept you are going to have bad sites. You don’t have the ability to only make 10 high performing websites that will pay your living expenses, at least not yet.
Many people are too scared to make a move until they have everything figured out. But this will lead to failure. Nobody knows how Google works for sure, I certainly don’t. You’ve got to get to work and do something.
I don’t blast out back links to my sites over the course of 1 or 2 days. I like to set my back linking submissions to 10 per day over a few months. I don’t think Google likes to see a ton of back links one day and then none the next. If you stop hunting for the magic pill and do some work, you will succeed.
The Gurus out there are constantly telling people how easy it is, and it is but you need guidance. For every 10 or so sites that you make, 1 or 2 will work out okay. Since you don’t have the skills yet, don’t expect to dominate the business.
If you don’t like article writing, then like Xfactor says, it is surprising your using this business model because a large portion of it is writing. Content and articles are basically the same just that one is usually longer than the other.
Don’t stop there, check out the Xfactor Adsense Course for yourself! I also recommend Unique Article Wizard to compliment my back linking strategies.
