If you happen to land on this blog, you might ask: a blogger not running Google Adsense, how come? If you are a long time internet lurker, it's probably a common knowledge to you that almost all bloggers run Adsense as their one major stream of income online.Well, I'm not one of them.
To be able to generate money by blogging using Adsense, you have to know exactly what you are doing.
It's hard to make money off of Adsense. You probably have tried it, and witnessed the famous .01c per click. It's disappointing, because you've heard bloggers like reaping money with Adsense.
So you ask: Why only .01 cent?
Because Adsense does not perform well on a personal or generic blogs (such as this). Adsense can be maximized on a niche blog.
A niche blog is a site that runs on a specific subject or topic only. For example: A blog about Injury Lawyers in New York will not post something about TV.
Therefore, in order for your Adsense to succeed, you must have a site that offers something a visitor is looking for. You should have a way out. And that way is the Adsense advertisement.
Think about it, if you have a general blog that has various subjects, Adsense will be confused as to which Ads are going to be shown. As a result, the rate of ads will be very low. If that happens to you, it means you are getting smart-priced.
If you got smart-priced, the rates will affect all your sites that run Adsense -- whether it is niche or general. To solve this, immediately turn off Adsense in all your sites, wait a few days (one week is better), and put back Adsense only on your niche sites.
I am running AdSense on my other sites, and the rate of click is reasonable. Putting Adsense here will just destroy it.
