John Xfactor's Advice of Google Adsense

... My Adsense income has almost tripled to date, reaching well



into the $300+ earnings each day.




Some Lessons Learned:


1) I have seen the light in terms of making more sites instead of


focusing on 1 big one. My health site still does well on its own,


around $100 or so daily, but it takes more maintenance than


my new strategy to go specific with keywords and niche markets.


2) I now focus EVERY website on products that can be found at


Amazon, E-bay, Wal-Mart, etc. This is probably the reason why my


income has exploded. I had no idea just how much open markets


there are in these products.


3) I now shoot only for keywords that I know can get in the top


spots for Google but with enough searches to make money.


4) Some of my most stable earners are sites with less than 30


pages.


5) I now work on 4-5 sites at a time, getting each ranked and earning


natural search engine clicks within a week.


6) Some of my sites only have 1 page of content, yet remain earning


$2 to $3 daily without any upkeep.


7) My content is always about product descriptions.


8) I still use article marketing exclusively, but do not worry about


keywords, nor do I care if my article ranks.


9) Some of my sites rank in the top 5 positions of Google, make money,


and I did no backlinking.


10) I have changed up my template that now gets 50% CTR at times,


often reaching the 75% mark (mainly due to using product-only niches).
