1. What Niches to Chose when Creating Plain Adsense Sites

Personally I prefer to create information sites and educational sites when I plan to just add Adsense. Another good niche is to target audience that want to save money, have found this one to be really good.

A great place to look and get ideas are flippa.com. Don`t steel the exact same topic or sub niche but you can get great ideas of sites that makes money with Adsense. I just checked Flippa and came up with these niches:

insurance
game sites
student loan
guitar lessons
persona finance
car stats, car reports
typing
vitamin
dracula (this one is interesting :)
foreclosure

These all make $100 + monthly with Adsense.

As always you want to create good quality content that help the reader out in some way.

Next: Keywords - Should you go for High CPC or Low CPC?

Hello,
You do not need different code for each ad. Feel free to PM me the site and I can take a look. If you want to email me the code I can take a look at that as well...

It usually takes a few minutes for the ad to "go live"...

Is the Adsense account still good? You can start "earning" before all details are squared away, you might want to make sure the account is still valid.

the keywords you choose in the CPC/traffic/competition section, those are for ranking your site right? and google will automatically assign ads for that keyword? or do you also tell google the keywords when you create the ad?

That is correct, the keywords is for ranking my site and Google will assign ads for the content on my site.

so i had a few keywords that jaaxy was saying were 500 or so searches and less than 100 QSR (pretty good) but the same kw on google's kw tool says "high" competition, what would you do in this situation? I trust jaaxy's results will let me rank for that KW, wheareas google's competition is more referring to adwords competition

I took all my adsense ads off my sites because I thought they might take people away from my sites but I missed the checks so put them back on some site and will probably have them on all the sites before it is over. I haven't finished reading your article. More tomorrow. John

The trick, as always, is to be able to get it to be #1, so keyword selections is important. I've also found out that people in the last stages of buying don't click on the adsense ads on my sites. People in the earlier stages do.

I've found out, for me, anyway, sites built around: how to kind of keywords get me more clicks. My click through rates on my best adsense site based on late buying cycle stages has a click through rate of 3-4%. My best one built on keywords people use in the earlier stages of they buying cycle gets me 9-11%, one month it got me 5% (which is still higher than 4).

Nice one, Veronica.

You are right, number 1 keyword is what we want. We need volume, lots of traffic to these sites. It also help when you work with niches that have high CPC (cost per click), but don`t underestimate the niches with low CPC though, lots of traffic can add up.

Just an example, I checked the average CPC and CTR (click through rate) this year on my Adsense sites:

I have one site with a CTR of 21%, CPC is only $0.10 but it still bring me some good money with that high CTR.

I have another site with a 2,27% CTR but the CPC is $3,27 so that brings in some good money too.

Thanks for adding this, think I will have to add this to the training.

This will help people get started making money more quickly, I personally creating an adsense site is a lot less intimidating. So I think its good for beginners. Just supply information, don't even think of selling anything.
