I remember my first check was almost $500 because I just let the change accumulate for a while.

Congratulations

When you double your traffic in a month, please share some tips with us all.

My Adsense revenue increased significantly after I read Joel Comms book called Adsense Secrets. The return on the $9.00 investment has been amazing.

When I discovered that advertisements about Insurance and credit repair paid more than ads about guitars and youth devotions, I designed some new websites. The significant increase in Adsense revenue was making several dollars per click rather than several pennies.

Google high paying Adsense keywords and see what you discover.

Jordy,

I have a page on insurance on my website. I'm thinking of changing some keywords there to drive that traffic. Thanks for the tip!

Bruce

Jordy,

I downloaded Joel Comms Ebook. I'm going to jump in with both feet. I've only made a couple of bucks, but my site is one page 1 of the google search! I just need more traffic.

Biffster, I just watch a video on Lisa's blog where she talks about targeted traffic being the key to increasing revenue.

Isn't the day we live in amazing. You can download a book as soon as someone suggests it. I do hope you find some valuable tips about increasing your Adsense revenue. BTW, your blog is turning out nice!

Thanks! I've been thinking about a credit repair site after I get this one going. Given our economic times it makes sense.

Congrats! It makes the program feel more real with the check in hand, doesn't it? I've done a lot of different "money making programs" in my day, but this is the first that's really paying off. And it's free to join. Can't beat that.

Thanks Bruce for the compliment!

For QuotesInSight, I started with SBI block builder template but as my knowledge increased, I ventured into uploading my own HTML...and after trying one template I came across, which didn't produce the look I was aiming for- I ended up trying Lisa's free template (http://www.2createawebsite.com/video...nTemplate.html) and customizing that into what the site is today

For QuoteDecor, I decided to focus my energies on content and monetization through the sale of hard goods, so although it is a still work in progress, I figured I'd shave some time by outsourcing and having someone else work on the graphics, etc...it's an ecommerce site and required shopping cart functionality so I went with a design by auctionaddons.

Hope this helps!

Oh and I also forgot...just got Adobe CS3 suite so perhaps a site in future will be built with DW, but for now I'm super comfortable with Kompozer (and it was free!)

Thanks

Getting adsense to match your site up with a good paying keyword is half the battle. After you figure out how to do that, rinse and repeat.

Great job! Next time make it $200!

took me a year to get to where you at. that was before i learned the hard way that traffic is the key to getting to adsense heaven.

i was so lazy before that i just grab articles from less known article sites and then promote it through social networks. not!

no traffic, no clicks. all those work went to waste with only a couple cents click result. now i know better. nothing beats original content on your site.

congrats!

Congrats!

It's a great feeling to get that first check -- mine paid a big part for my first laptop .

Keep it up!
