What It Takes To Make Money Blogging With

2006 has seen many extraordinary changes in the blogosphere as well
as Adsense. More and more people are entering the world of blogging,
and many of them are putting their hands on Google Adsense to
generate a part-time income.
Some of them made it successfully and become full-time blogger.
They are able to climb to the top of the Adsense ladder and cash their
tens-of-thousands checks, laughing all the way to the bank, while
others are still scratching their head in dismay trying to figure out
what went wrong.
This special report is written specifically to outline what works and
what doesn’t. Without further ado, let’s get started.

What Doesn’t Work:

1)Duplicated Content

It surprises me when I receive emails asking me where to scrap
content to make money from Adsense. Don’t waste your time. Google
is penalizing on duplicated content. If your blog is filled with content
copied from article directories or free-to-copy articles, you will end up
in the recycle bin of not only Google Search Engine, but the mind of
blogosphere. It is so easy to detect a piece of duplicated content.
Don’t use them unless they are really that good that you need to let

your readers read. If you currently run a blog full of duplicated
content, consider dumping it if it is not making you money. If it is
making you money, it won’t be long. You have to insert unique
content into the blog to save it from being swept.

2)Merely A Diary

If your blog is merely a diary without a theme, it can be hard to make
money from Adsense. You can make much more if your blog is closely
focused upon a theme. If you are planning to start a blog in 2007 for
the purpose of cashing with Adsense, forget about a diary. The ads
appearing on a diary cannot be well targeted. People will not click if
there is no relevancy of the ads to the content. People are hungry for
information, especially information that solves their problem,
provides convenience or provides entertainment. Think of a creative
theme and rock on it, just not a simple diary.
3) High Paying Adsense Keywords
The hype is still around. People are spending thousands of dollars
acquiring high paying adsense keywords. They are near to nonexistent.
Google has smart pricing that rules in the favor of the
advertisers. Google has never disclosed how many percent of revenue
it is going to share with you. If you found a keyword that advertisers
are paying $25 per click, it is unlikely that you will earn $12 a click on
that keyword. In fact, it is suggested that you steer away from the
keywords appearing in any suggested high paying keyword list when
you are first starting out. They do not pay what you think they will
pay, but the competition is stiff. You might not even get a click at all,
so why bother spending a whole 120 pages blog on the keyword?

4)Blind link exchange

Till these days, I still receive emails requesting a “blind” link
exchange. I am always happy to get a request about link exchange, but
when I look at the proposed link, it has nothing to do with my theme!
I am writing about gardening and someone send an email asking for
link exchange with his blog about Car’s Performance! Blind link
exchange will not work. In fact, it is rumored that blind link exchange
will not make but break your blog. You cannot control who is linking
to you, but you have absolute choice on who you want to link to. If
you link to spam blogs, called splogs, Google might think you have
problem distinguishing what’s good and what’s not and penalize on
you for that. Be careful on the link you are sending out.
