How To Build Adsense Revenue Sites
How To Build Adsense Revenue Sites
Advertising has long functioned as an extra revenue source for marketers and webmasters. Originally it was just text ads or banners. Some sites forged close ties with their clients and included them as sponsors, complete with pre-pages and elaborate flash animations.
Now marketers are taking the idea to the extreme and building sites that exist just to display ads!
The technique involves building sites that target a certain niche, and that contain hundreds or thousands of webpages each focused on a single keyword.
These pages all contain relevant content, so the search engine is happy. These pages are rarely designed to look attractive - at least to a human. Their purpose is to simply attract a click to the ads.
These sites are quite easy to build.
First, find your niche.
Then find as many keywords and key phrases as possible for this niche. You need to drill down from the `broad` searches to deep searches.
Example: You want to build a site around the `fishing` niche. The main keyword for the site is `fishing`, obviously, so you'd use a tool such as the Overture Search Suggestion tool to find deeper keywords. By drilling down we find `tampa bay fishing`, `canada fishing lodge`, `bass fishing tip` etc. These are the phrases you'd build pages around.
These deeper search terms only get a couple of hundred to a thousand searches per month. The technique is similar to the way marketers used to save money when bidding on ads in overture or adsense. They'd never pay for such a broad term as fishing, they would bid on the more specific terms.
After finding your keywords you can integrate content from other sites, most commonly articles or RSS/Blog feeds, to fill the page with the ads on top. A feed has the added bonus of providing constantly changing content.
These pages will be highly focused on individual phrases and won't attract much traffic. But because there are so many of them a site with, say, 1000 pages could attract tens of thousands of hits a month. And 10, 20 or even 50 sites would attract a LOT of traffic.
And since each and every page is displaying relevant ads even a 1% click through rate could result in thousands of clicks per month. The most common Ad source for these sites is Google AdSense, though Yahoo now offer a similar system.
As an estimate, we'll assume a 1% click through. If the site has 500 pages and it attracts 1000 hits a day, it would get 100 clicks a day. That is 3,000 a month. Google is very secretive about it's payouts but as an example let's call that $300 per month.
Now imagine having 10 of these sites. That's $3000 a month! Or 100... That's $30,000!
And this is exactly what people are doing. The figures will vary wildly, but the system remains the same.
I have some reservations about the long term viability of these sites. Google updates have wiped out doorway pages before (an older form of this idea). And Google has a duty to provide relevant content to it's users - something it tends to work hard at.
Running ad-sites like this is technically spamming the search engines. If you are caught out, your site could be banned. It's a risk but if you slip under the radar a potentially profitable one! And careful use of templates and articles/feeds will make a site with relevant content -- even if the content isn't yours.
Constructing an Adsense Site
The domain name for the niche you are building this adsense site for should contain the main keywords or phrase.
You then need a template that each page is built around. This could be as simple as a blank page or it could contain a sitemap, links, graphics, etc.
You would also want your AdSense ads code at the top.
The pages URL, Title, and Meta Tags should reflect the keyword/phrase you are currently focussing this page on.
You then fill the main content with a relevant RSS feed and/or article.
There are many sources of articles on the web. Try ezinearticles.com or articlecity.com
You are usually allowed to copy as many articles as you want as long as the authors resource box is included.
You can find RSS feeds at syndic8.com
A good tool to read the RSS Feed and display it on site is RSS2HTML.
If you use it this way it will be read by the search-engine that spiders the page correctly. Some scripts, such as those written in JavaScript, will not show the content as part of the site. The RSS2HTML script will place the blog/rss content on your page and update it as necessary.
For further revenue, you can add keyword-specific content from other sites such as Amazon, AllPosters, eBay etc. The advantage with these affiliate programs is that if you specify the keyword you will display attractive, graphical ads tailored to that page. These can generate more income as well as make the page more professional.
After you have this page you move on to your next keyword/phrase. You can use different articles and blogs, and you need to change the page name and title. The first page you created can act as a template for all others. Only small changes need to be made - mainly in the content part.
Do this until you have a page for each keyword/phrase you have listed.
Upload the whole site, get listed in the search engines (submit your main URL or get linked from an existing site), and wait!
The only problem with this method of working is the repititive nature of building these sites. A site with a thousand pages could be impossible for a human to build alone. Luckily, there are now numerous packages and scripts available to automate this process...
Complete Adsense Building Packages
There are now a number of packages on the market that take you by the hand through the whole process of building `Adsense Sites`.
One that has just been released and is garnering very good reviews is "Auto Income Secrets`, from the well-respected marketer Neil Shearing.
Neils package teaches you exactly how to build these sites. He tells you the tools you must be using, as well as explaining key processes such as Keyword Hunting, Page Designing and more. All in a friendly, helpful way - including full screenshots of every step.
His first attempt at an Adsense Page is now making $150 per month, and it can now be left on autopilot, forever! This is in just over 45 days.
Neils "Auto Income Secrets" is currently just $67. You can make this with just one adsense site!
