Make Money from a High Traffic Blog People flock to blogs because they get to read what other people are writing about and if the subject matter is interesting enough, they get to participate in the discussion online. Blogs attract large amounts of website traffic because each time you finish posting on your blog, the major Blog Aggregators will be informed via a ping from your server and if people like the title of your post, they will start coming onto your blog. One common tactic being used today in blogging is link baiting where you write about a controversial topic and all of a sudden, many blogs start linking to you and sending traffic to your blog. Thus you will start earning more from the increased traffic via Adsense Clickthroughs. 2. Build Small Content Niche Sites Build a great content site that has good content that people will be willing to link to and give you traffic. The key to building a great website is to target keywords that people are searching for so that you can get large amounts of website traffic from the internet. Then put together a simple website for this. A great free tool that I use for keyword research is http://www.goodkeywords.com to determine keywords that generate huge amounts of website traffic. I would suggest that if you are new to this, you can start with a blog and see if people are interested in the keywords and topics that you write about and then after that once you establish that you can make money from that topic, spin it off and start a small content website. The key as mentioned above is to get website traffic. 3. Community Based Sites You might want to consider starting a community portal like Friendster or an Article Directory where people constantly return to the website to submit articles, blogs, comments and this would result in a high amount of website traffic to your website and increased Adsense Revenue. For example, you might want to brainstorm on all your interests and maybe start out with a forum on your favourite topic and then progress to build a larger portal. This concept is huge and if done well can get you lots of money. In conclusion, the key to making money online with adsense is generating quality website traffic.

Ebusiness 101 Part 2: Defining Your Audience

Carefully defining your audience before conducting any marketing or advertising efforts can save thousands of dollars and hours of wasted efforts. Audience research and awareness also helps you organize and design your website to appeal to this demographic. Your audience is anyone who uses your site - from reading it to ordering on it and navigating through it. Start by defining personal aspects of your audience to reach specific answers that can further your business. Identify the following: 1. Their sex (percentage of male and female) 2. Their age (the dominant age range and categories) 3. Their technical ability 4. The number of years they've used the Internet 5. Their primary language 6. Their buying motives (economy, efficiency, durability, performance, labor- or time-saving, construction, operation, ease of repair or installation, availability, quality craftsmanship, etc.) 7. What emotions cause them to buy (need for security or convenience, curiosity, pride of appearance or ownership, prestige, fear, need for individuality, need for recognition, etc.) 8. How much money do they earn each year, and how much of this is disposable? 9. How much money do they spend each year on products similar to yours? 10. Where do they live? 11. Do they shop online? If so, how often? 12. Do they watch television, read the newspaper or search online? From these questions, you can deduce the most effective means of advertising and promotion. You'll also identify the best way to reach into their pocketbooks using the right copy, design and user navigation. Will they see a Google AdWord ad if you started a campaign? Do they want a hip, creative or bare bones design? Will your site be compatible with their browser? The answers should unfold. When you're just starting out, your audience demographic data is often based on your own instinct and research. As you develop your business, conduct user surveys to fine-tune the actual figures. Then repeat this step every one to two years to ensure you're always marketing and selling toward the right clientele.
