Adsense and Longtail Traffic
by : Internet Marketer (some where)
Those who know me know that I’ve been building adsense scraper sites by the thousands and it worked pretty well back then. Site got indexed quick in google and traffic was good. I used to put ads above the fold and hide, or lower the text to get maximum ctr and adsense was bringing on average over $100 per 1000 visitors.
But these times have long gone. First google started banning new domains much faster, without giving them enough traffic and then Adsense closed few of my main accounts and on the recent one (about half a year ago) I wasn’t even paid the earnings for last month. They explained it simply by saying they didn’t like my business model, that is building sites for the sole purpose of sering ads. Oh well..
So I had to rebuild my whole adsense system into making good looking sites which will be within the tos, which caused the cpm to go down all the way down to just around $10-20 making the whole idea rather unprofitable.
I’ve tried many things with adsense since then, but in the end I gave it up. Building crappy adsense sites doesn’t pay anymore and if you’re still doing it you’re probably earning pennies. It sure was a good ride, but anything good comes to an end.
Targeted longtail traffic still pays off good in many niches, like ringtones, loans, gambling, dating etc if monetized with affiliate programs. While still being longtail it’s a different approach from what we did with adsense - trying to find the best keywords, with low competition, good traffic and decent clicks.
You can still make some $$ with adsense, but it can’t be scaled any more and not worth the effort.
So to all those doing adsense - are you making good money? No, then leave it! Same time and effort can be better applied in other areas
NOTE :
For your own good, if you need to keep your adsense box surfive..do not make the FRAUD CLICKS. ( Read the Adsense TOS carefuly or you will be BANNED )
