ADSENSE

Hi the name's k9ine and I am currently experimenting on making a biz out of blogging. I have been running a blogsite ever since I was 17, but it is only now (FINALLY!) that I knew how to make money out of it, thanks for the heavenly guys who were the very reason why. Well, it's not a get-rich-right-away scheme, but it's a huge help. I mean, I'd rather have my site get monetized than let it be posted around the net getting nothing but props. Well, I know YOU also would want to earn something out of what you love to do, right? Here, Let me be the one who can help you out on that. Let me share to YOU, YOU and YOU a portion of what I have learned from the rest.

  • BLOGGER - This blogsite you are currently viewing is powered by Blogger. For you to get one and get started with your blogging, of course, you have got to sign-up for Blogger. It's easy and FREE, you like that huh? FREE STUFF! When you sign up with blogger, you can write anything under the sun and or voice out your ideas anytime. Whether it be emo or happy write-ups, it's ok, however, you have to be vary careful with the language, if you know what I mean. It is most advisable, though, for you to get a focused niche. For example: Forex, the latest technology that's in the market, money making opportunities, celebrity news, and the likes. It has to be something that you really love to do or are into right now. With Blogger, you may customize your blog and make it pretty or bold, or simply get it pimped with your own style. But before that, you need to sign-up to Blogger with your Google Account. The new version of Blogger requires a Google Account to access your blog's features and stuff. That means you, first have to create a Google Account. After creating a Google Account, come back to this site and then sign-up at Blogger. You can actually find the white Blogger button on the left, it's the 3rd cute button under the Firefox button. See it? Click on it and then create your Blogger account. Once you're done there, too, come back here again for the next step.
  • ADSENSE - Now that you have your blogsite, it's time to gain profit! Adsense is a contextual advertising by Google. Contextual advertising is the term applied to advertisements appearing on websites or other media, such as content displayed in mobile phones, where the advertisements are selected and served by automated systems based on the content displayed by the user. Google Adsense was the first major contextual advertising program. It worked by providing webmasters with JavaScript code that, when inserted into web pages, called up relevant advertisements from the Google inventory of advertisers. The relevance was calculated by a separate Google bot that indexed the content of the page. Contextual advertising has made a major impact on earnings of many websites. As the ads are more targeted they are more likely to get clicked, thus generating revenue for the owner of the website (and the server of the advertisement). A large part of Google's earnings are from their share of the contextual ads served on the millions of webpages running the Adsense program.
Meaning, website publishers earn a portion of the advertising revenue for
placing Google
sponsored links on their site. YOU can do the same thing!
HOW? Enroll your blogsite at
Adsense! Check out the left side of this site again,
see the first big white button that's
above the Firefox button? Yeah, that's
Adsense. Click on that and sign-up and then enroll.
You don't have to worry
because, again, it's FREE, yipee! They will be asking for the URL
of your site.
For those who don't know what URL is, it's the Uniform Resource Locator, or
Uniform Resource Identifier (URI) to others. it's basically the WWW or HTTP://
of your
site, like this site is http://plaindoublecheeseburger.blogspot.com. You
follow me? After
enrolling your blogsite, you have to wait for 2-3 days to let
Google Adsense crawl your site
and make an approval. For the mean time, let's
go to the 3rd step.

  • TRAFFIC - Here, you have three choices Free Traffic, Paid Traffic, BOTH. Traffic is in other words quality visitors that are targeted to your site. You need to target visitors or prospects to your site for you to earn. Like a "sari-sari" or convenience store needs a costumer! You are actually a visitor to the site I have provided. Now, where can you find these Traffic? EVERYWHERE via the net! I have one link that you might want to try, the big white button that says Free traffic, again, it's located at the left site of this site. Others find a more effective way to gain Traffic through Paid Traffic. You can try it out, too, even just for once, just to see. You can go to ebay and search Traffic there.
Well, whew! That's it! Easy right? Let's do a little bit of recap on this, shall we?
  1. Sign up with Blogger with the use of your Google Account. Put some content, maybe a focused niche of your choice or of what you love to do.
  2. Enroll your blogsite at Adsense. Wait for an approval.
  3. For the mean time, Generate Traffic!
The most important part here is YOU. You, of course, should believe in what you're doing and treat this as a business. The only thing you have to do is to experiment, earn, experiment again, earn more, experiment further more, and earn as much as you were expecting. That's it! Now, you have your blogsite, equipped with Adsense and targeted with Traffic, whatever's next is up to you. Be creative and hopeful! Wish you all the best of luck and God bless!!!

Hey k9ine...I am doing all the steps you mentioned. Waiting for the money part to kick in...lol. I am with freewebs, I tried blogger and it was glitchy, I could not figure out how to edit and the templates were screwy. Anyway, check out my freewebs site and see what you think.
