5 Top Secret Techniques To Make Your Adsense Website Stick

Copyright © 2006 Alan Cheng Without a doubt you need traffic to your Adsense website since your income from Google depends on it. It's the problem which most people have problems with. If you can make your visitors stick to your website then the traffic you create should accumulate - problem solved. Making that traffic return is the major challenge and one of the so called "secrets" of build a successful Adsense website. What is better than having visitors continuing to return to your website, without any effort on your part? You definitely need to make your Adsense website sticky and below are my 5 tips to achieve this. 1. Have good, interesting content. This is the one of the main reasons why I favour blogs advertising Adsense. You can easily write content and update it on your website. It's much easier updating a blog than a website. Unless of course, your website has a content management system (CMS) like a blog. People browse on the internet to read content. So if the information provided by you is good and it is updated on a regular basis, the user will bookmark your site and will return. Even possibly a few times a week to read your content. 2. Having a newsletter subscription or a mini course sign up form on the front of your website. Once visitors sign up to your form, they are on your email list. You can use an autoresponder to follow up with them and also email to notify them that your content is updated. Having your visitors go on your email list will remind them of your existence so that they visit you again. However, you have to make sure that your mini-course provides good content so they will read it. You can see how I do this with my 7 part mini-course by sending a blank mail to my autoresponder at ne-mini@onlinemoneymachine.com This is my step-by-step mini-course on making money with Adsense. 3. Having a forum on your website. With good content you will attract interested visitors to your website. These visitors love to share and discuss what they are passionate about. A forum will act as a regular gathering place for them which means repeated visits and also increase in Adsense clicks. 4. Announcing upcoming events. In your content, you should always specify what is coming up in the next few days. Such as updated report on your particular niche. This will increase the visitor's awareness of your website and they will remember to visit your website again sometime in the future to check out what you mentioned before. This is a very powerful technique to build repeat visitors and it only requires a mention of what is coming in the next few days. 5. The last technique to ensure repeat visitors is to have a schedule of the updates to your website and stick to it. If your blog advertising Google Adsense is rarely updated, the chances of the visitor coming back is near zero. People love reading good content but if they return and find that your content is the same they will rarely return. The reason is because they have a lot of other choices. The web is so clickable, you've got to get their attention. If you stick to having updates on regular basis such as once in 2 days, then the visitor will return to read the latest on your website. This concludes the 5 ways to having a sticky Adsense website. The best thing is to implement all 5 techniques to your website. Getting traffic is not an easy thing so make sure the traffic is your regular customer. A regular customer gives you business which in this case is Adsense income. ============================================================ Alan Cheng is the author of Adsense Blogger http://www.adsense-blogger.com/?5 where his views, findings and tips on Adsense are discussed and shared with his loyal readers. ============================================================ Read More Articles From Alan Cheng: http://thePhantomWriters.com/free_content/d/index.shtml#Alan_Cheng

How To Make Visitors Bookmark Your Site

How To Make Visitors Bookmark Your Site

When visitors bookmark your site it is a sign that you have built a great website and are pleasing them. Visitors think highly enough of your site to want to return and possibly tell others about it. You are not only increasing traffic from your existing clientele you are encouraging new traffic by means of viral marketing.

What exactly is book marking? It is when a visitor to your site decides that they like your site enough to place it in their favorites so that they may return and look over it some more.

How to make book marking easy for your visitors: You can place a small script http://www.jscode.com/js_auto_bookmark.shtml from this website. It is free. Or you can look on Google for other book marking scripts (free book marking script). Internet Explorer already has an option for this called "favorites."

Ways to encourage visitors to bookmark your site:

1. Your content: make it high quality and interesting. You can write articles about:

Your products or service- reviews are always popular

Informative articles- about product, service or your industry

Stories and anecdotes- about your industry

News stories and top trends

Original content

2. Always add new content on a regular basis-keeps visitors returning. Always let visitors know that your site is updated on a regular basis

3. Make your site professional looking

4. Make it user friendly with simple navigation

5. If your site is large you may want to make a table of contents with clickable links

6. Have links to different sites that are good resources. Add these on a regular basis

7. Quizzes and trivia questions relating to your industry-the answers will be found on one of your important pages


Of course there are obvious things that will discourage book marking:

1. A boring site with no real content or resources

2. Inaccurate information or rehashed information

3. Poor web design-just appears tacky and looks like it was written by a kindergartener

4. Slow loading-visitors will not wait longer than 2 seconds.

5. Hype-this is very unprofessional and visitors get annoyed by this and leave


Visitor duration and page selection: A useful piece of information about your site is checking traffic and how long your visitors are staying on any given page. You can see this by looking at your log files. This can be done by a Cpanel or whatever your web host has set up. You can view things like:

1. The amount of visitors that have come to your site- monthly weekly or daily

2. How many bots are visiting

3. Your most popular pages

4. How many error 404 pages you had

5. How long visitors are staying at each page


This is all valuable information and will give you a good idea of what is interesting your visitors and allows you to work on the areas that are attracting them.

Business owners often overlook book marking but when you pay attention to what is useful and attractive to your visitors you will encourage book marking and many return visitors. Once visitors are in the habit of returning they will familiarize themselves with your website and be much more likely to buy. Don't you buy more from your favorite store?
