How Much Money Can You Make From AdSense?

According to a poll done by Problogger a while ago most AdSense publishers, about 30%, make less than $10 a month whilst the second highest amount of AdSense sites (20%) earn up to $500 a month.

There are however around 5% who earn more than $10,000 a month from Google's magic AdSense program.

This should give us AdSense publishers a lot of encouragement when you think that it is entirely possible to make $10,000 a month from AdSense as there are people making that kind of money every month.

So whilst these kind of earnings are a reality, to make this kind of money you need to ask yourself the following questions;

  • How much do you want to make from AdSense?
  • How hard are you willing to work to achieve this?
  • How much time are you willing to spend working the Google AdSense program?

If you can honestly answer "whatever it takes" or something to that effect & you are willing to commit yourself to working towards that monthly AdSense earning figure then you may have a chance of actually achieving it.

So How Can You Make $10,000 From AdSense?

Well here a two ways to do it;

  1. Put up 1,000 sites that each make $10 a month

  2. or...
  3. Put up 1 site that makes $10,000 a month

Seriously though you would need more than just 1 website but certainly not as many as 1,000 - that would just be too difficult to manage & maintain.

Factors That May Influence Your AdSense Revenue

  • Topic & Number of Sites

    Start with a few which have fairly popular topics such as photography or web design where you can be assured of enough demand & advertisers for Google to serve up AdSense ads on your sites.

    A topic for which there is little or no demand will not have enough advertisers for Google to provide your site with AdSense ads.

  • Earnings Per Click

    The higher your AdSense earnings per ad click the less clicks you will require to reach your revenue target.

    Therefore ensure that your content is rich with high paying keywords so that you get AdSense ads that will produce higher earnings per click - sometimes just 1 click can generate as much as $5.00 whereas many clicks will only make $0.01c.

  • CTR (Click Through Rate)

    The higher your CTR the higher your earnings for a particular number of site visitors.

  • Website Traffic

    All other things being equal, more traffic will generate more revenue

  • Relevant Ads

    If the ads Google serves up are not relevant to your site's content your site visitors will be unlikely to click on them as they won't be to do with what attracted them to your site.

To sum up, the amount of money you make from AdSense = CTR + Traffic Volume + Ads with High Paying Keywords + Relevant Ads

How to Create an Account and Start Uploading Photos


One of the many wonders of the world wide web is Picasa Web Album, and I think everyone should have an account. It is both an online-tool and a FREE downloadable, client-side tool made by Google, allowing you to easily upload photos. I for one find it really easy to use, I think Google tools are built that way. One can quickly use those photos for other online websites like blogs and the like. I use it to store my personal private photo library too.

The free account allows one to have 1024MB of photo space. An upgraded full account are separated into 4 general plans:

  1. 10GB for $20/year
  2. 40GB for $75/year
  3. 150GB for $250/year
  4. 400GB for $500/year

For those who do not have a Picasa Web Album account yet, here are 5 easy steps to start with one of your own and begin your online photo library.

1. Create an account or sign into your Google account using your GMail username and password at http://picasaweb.google.com.


2. At the upper left corner you’d see My Photos, My Favorites, & My Public Gallery. You can click any of these links when you’ve got photos uploaded into your account.



3. To begin uploading your first sets of photos, click the upload button on the upper-right side of the website.


4. You then must first choose to create a new album and/or to upload your photo into an existing album.



5. And the fifth step is to choose the actual photos and click OK/Upload.

Making money online through adsense

is one of the easiest way to earn money online. To start with, first we need to know what is Google Adsense. AdSense is an advertisement serving program run by Google. Website and blog owners can enroll in this program to enable text, image, and more recently, video advertisements on their websites or blogs. These advertisements are administered by Google and generate revenue on either a per-click or per-impression basis.

There are four types of Ads on googlde adsense:

1. AdSense for Content
Display ads that are targeted to your site's unique content. Google matches advertisements to the content of a website. When the user clicks the ads link text, he or she is redirected to the advertiser's website. The publisher is paid if the advertisements on the page are clicked.

2. AdSense for Search
Offer your users site search or web search while earning revenue from ads relevant to their search terms. allows you to place Google search boxes on your websites. When a user searches the Internet or the website with the search box, Google shares any advertising revenue it makes from those searches with the you. However the publisher is paid only if the advertisements on the page are clicked: AdSense does not pay publishers for mere searches.

3. AdSense for Feeds
Place relevant ads in feeds that Google manages for you. It works by inserting images into a feed. When the image is displayed by a RSS reader or Web browser, Google writes the advertising content into the image that it returns. The advertisement content is chosen based on the content of the feed surrounding the image. When the user clicks the image, he or she is redirected to the advertiser's website in the same way as regular AdSense advertisements.

4. AdSense for mobile content
allows you to generate earnings from their mobile websites using targeted Google advertisements. Just like AdSense for content, Google matches advertisements to the content of a website — in this case, a mobile website.

How AdSense works?

- The webmaster inserts the AdSense JavaScript code into a webpage.

- Each time this page is visited, the JavaScript code creates an IFrame with a src attribute set to the page's URL.

- For contextual advertisements, Google's servers use a cache of the page to determine a set of high-value keywords. If keywords have been cached already, advertisements are served for those keywords based on the AdWords bidding system. (More details are described in the AdSense patent.)

- For site-targeted advertisements, the advertiser chooses the page(s) on which to display advertisements, and pays based on cost per mille (CPM), or the price advertisers choose to pay for every thousand advertisements displayed.

- For referrals, Google adds money to the advertiser's account when visitors either download the referred software or subscribe to the referred service. The referral program will be retired in August 2008.

- Search advertisements are added to the list of results after the visitor performs a search.

- Because the JavaScript is sent to the Web browser when the page is requested, it is possible for other website owners to copy the JavaScript code into their own webpages. To protect against this type of fraud, AdSense customers can specify the pages on which advertisements should be shown. AdSense then ignores clicks from pages other than those specified.

3 ways of Maximizing your Google Adsense Income

- use a wide range of traffic-generating techniques, including but not limited to online advertising.
- build valuable content on your websites that attracts AdSense advertisements, which pay out you when they are clicked.
- use copy on your websites that encourages visitors to click on advertisements. Note that Google prohibits webmasters from using phrases like "Click on my AdSense ads" to increase click rates. The phrases accepted are "Sponsored Links" and "Advertisements".
