Earning Money With AdSense: I Got Paid This Much from Google? Not Much!
Make Money With Google AdSense With A Few Very Fine Hubs?
The Google AdSense affiliate program is an important topic on the Internet, because of the changes happening with online writing sites- and quality control. There will always be something that will change and for the most part, it is something that we as writers will have to accept if we wish to survive on the web. We publish our work and want to create some fine hubs, and this is a means to an end, but we forget that it is also a business, and we have to earn money. As much as we like to make money, getting paid is not as easy is it once was, and some ask does anybody make money with Google AdSense anymore?
It's a time factor and an intelligence factor. Not so much IQ, but money and keywords intelligence about the Google affiliate program (which also includes AdWords, and Analytics). A bit of knowledge about SEO is also helpful in this business-- if you want to increase your income. Publishing your online article is one thing you can do to increase your earnings, but if your overall writing is poor then there is a problem.
There are some ways to earn income by using the Google AdSense program. It is just that you need to be careful and use a bit of thought while writing a hub and then marketing a hub. Sometimes it works and other times it doesn't. At the start of my hub writing experience I knew next to nothing about Google or getting a better return on Google. Some will ask you do you really get paid for Google AdSense?
It is all about the things you do with Google, the business choices that you make, and that all comes together to make you money with the Google AdSense program. The only problem is there are many days when you do not make money and that is frustrating to a new writer who does want to make this a living. We all want to say the words "I got paid."
Money
- Writing A Fine Hub with a Good Quality Length
What do the best websites have in common? A powerful message and quality writing. If a writer's hubs are like that then readers will find it to be a powerful, well written, fine hub.
Keywords+ Traffic+ More Money From Google AdSense
Use the Google AdWords Keywords Tool, to help understand your potential revenue:This particular program is a great beginning, this is a sort of make money with Google AdSense "
This will give you a much better idea of how much to expect from a hub, or an online website, in terms of dollars per click. Just remember this is only an estimate when you use the keyword tools.. For example: a single word keyword gets you nowhere, it tends to have a lot of "hits" but you will find it hard to get people to dig for your hub.. A phrase is helpful, but as long as you get traffic to the hub, with a good use of SEO (search engine optimization.) This is the sort of thing where it break down to with Google AdWords I can learn how to make money and how much I can earn.
The problem is working with the keywords you find and publishing a hub that will increase traffic to your work.
Hub Pages Statistics and Traffic Reports: Under My Account there is are two things that I use to look at a lot, until I understood it to the best of my abilities. The Hub Statistics for each and every hub you publish. This tells you how many people have come to the hub, how many have commented, and of course when they came. The traffic tells you where everyone came from. What you want to see on that list is diversity. Question yourself if there isn't. If it's all from hubpages you won't make much money if you are getting it from search engines (some SEO knowledge this will make sense) and hubpages better, but also see if you are linking correctly to your other sites, it is about traffic and getting people to read what you write about.
Look at Your Keywords:Some make more money than others, ask what works for your hub and why. If you use to generic keywords the search engines won't find them, too specific and people won't think to type it in the keywords.( this is often why you might not get paid by Google AdSense.) Not all keywords will make money and some of the sections on hub pages simply have so much that your hub needs to stand out, and get A LOT of traffic. otherwise, no matter how good the hub, you won't get clicks. You can use google AdWords to look or do some searches on search engines to find out. This takes time and effort and it is something that you will need to do to increase your profits.
This is the difference between the idea of payments: with on type, you will not get paid with Google AdSense, and with the other you will get paid with Google AdSense.
Are You Getting Paid By AdSense?
Do You Use Google AdSense?
Money, Your Readers and Expectations
Understanding AdSense and Your Readers:Some people simply read hubs and comment and some will click on a AdSense ad, others won't spend to much time on the hub to make a difference. All this however is an important thing to know and you will need to use Google Analytics to find this out. People do stop and comment on them and that's vital to writing. People learn your name. This is about making money, but since they are out there, people know my style... so does it hurt? No, it helps as many will read other hubs I write, my traffic can come from. This is not about why You don't make money from Google AdSense, but rather why your readers don't care to click on ads.
Google AdSense is a program where the key to making the money you want to to know your readers and understand what thee search engines where your readers are coming from want with your websites. This is why most people use a keyword research tool, or even try to see what people are searching based on the search engines.
The is more, you need to increase traffic and you need to do this fast if you want to get paid faster, of course part of increasing traffic is better search engine optimization, and the more quality content you have the better the search engines will like. It is not all about making oney online!
There more you target your traffic, which means the more you do keyword research and spend time reworking older websites and blogs, then the more likely you will make money and see success with the Google AdSense Affiliate Program.
What Are Your Expectations about getting paid?:This is the what do you actually get paid from hubpages question, if your hubs aren't doing well, and you expect a great income from AdSense, I'll shed a light on the subject. From numbers I've read and from other comments, really only about 25% of people who use AdSense make $100 a month.
That is 1 in 4 make $100 a month. Then you can break it down from there, but the numbers are varying-- some only make pennies per year, so they are not getting paid much over a long time. So, it's not a definite thing. The following is important, people will comment and read something good, but will also read something from an author who's been around a while.
Keep writing fine hubs, but understand what you are writing about and where you are writing this hub will affect what you earn on Google AdSense. A quick and final example: If you write about finances and the keyword rates are higher "pay" than a hub on books. This doesn't mean you shouldn't write hubs on books or writing just don't expect say $10 a click!
To have success in the Internet and make money, and get paid you will need to plan long-term and build your links and improve your performance of your websites and hubs. To get paid means to work hard and to be willing to improve and fix the mistakes you made in the past.
To your success on hubpages, on your hubs and on making money with Google AdSense!

This hub was very insightful. Thanks for the information.

This is a very true statement, because you will need some sort of traffic, and you will have to have some strong content to do it too.
I think Adsense works if you have a larger following. From experience you aren't going to get "paid very much" by Adsense unless you have some really good posts and content.
- Author
No, not at all, and the more you learn and improve the more likely you will see results. If you choose to improve!
Yes, it is not a fast way to make money. You need to get your content on first. However, if you enjoy writing, you can look around and try other options at the same time.

Louise- most people can easily say they make money because that part is easy. You make money when you have a penny. You earn income when you earn enough you don't have to work.
A lot of people say they make money what about income?

this is purely AdSense, most of the numbers haven't changed over the years.
I might have missed it but is this purely Google Adsense? I mean. not using the hubpages earning program.
Great to read that some of you writers have success with adsense. Very informative. When I signed up I suspect that I did a lot of things wrong. I mean with the forms. I've tried asking for help on two different Google forums, but no luck. It's all automated. They are all volunteers and give you links to pages I've already been. I keep getting errors notices on these pages I've (for now) have given up!

Nadine-- it's a slow process, but I think it's still important to get things done right
I see from the dates that you wrote this hub a long time ago, but nevertheless, many thanks. I never knew how earning money from writing articles worked, until I found Hubpages 3 month ago. I still have a lot to learn, so your articles on that topic will be of great help.

jay-- yes I do get paid from hubpages, but it is an ongoing process right about now.
nice work here, but do you still get paid with hubpages?

Logan-- if your content is useful then your keywords will be useful, so focus on content, and then keywords.... but content is king more so now than before-- and it's overall content.
Interesting article. I liked it. What about keywords now?

Laura-- I tried a few different combinations and I am usually adding or changing this to make it better in many ways, so thanks for the comment as it really helps me know where this can improve and what is going well.
Great article. I agree with a lot of the things other commenters have already said so I wanted to point out what I noticed about your article first. The title caught my interest and then the pictures of the pennies, the library, and the money falling from the sky drew my eyes. I realized that my eyes naturally followed the progression of pictures down while reading the captions. I thought it was neat that you had created a mini story and it is something I will keep in mind when I put pictures on my future hubs. Thanks!

nina-- all the best, this is one of those things where you will eed to keep on keeping on, and keep on writing.
Rebecca, I'm glad you like my comment. So far I've seen some pretty interesting topics. Wish me luck as I pursue my writing venture.
- Author
nina-- that is pretty much the way you have to think, it is a part of your business but not the only part.
When I first stumbled across hubpages.com, I really did not know what to expect. The potential for earning money really sounds good. I'm new to hubpages, so I'm really looking to brushing up on my writing skills. If I earn something, fine. If I don't, then I will still continue to write. I think hubpages.com is a great way to express my thoughts and feeling. I also enjoy reading what other people have to say.

nell79-- it's been around a while =) but thanks for that! =) I've been thinking to add to this, but it is a basic hub which makes a huge difference with what people need.
Definitely not spammy :) Anyway, this is a subject I know little about. I've been blogging and writing articles on the web for two years off and on (juggling a family of my size leaves little time for writing), but I still don't really get the keywords. I think I know more than I did when I started, but when I try to think of ways to improve it just makes my brain hurt! LOL Anyway, lots of good info here. Thanks!

john-- no I wouldn't since this hub has done a lot for others, Google will change and change a lot but content then everything else will be key to maintaining your work.
this hub has been here a while, what would you consider changing now with Google?
- Author
daouady-- if you so choose to you could, however, this is generally not done unless it looks to be something that you would be interested in. If you were to do this, and do a number of ads, you can be doing what is ccalled click fraud and that can get the users account banned, as well as your own. So it is not advisable to do this. Ads are tehre for interest and therefore Google states if you are interested in the product you can go to find out more.
Were helpful, do you think it is a good practice for all of us hubbers that when we read a hub and like that we ought to click on the adds so the writers hard work is rewarded?

john-- no but with effort money can be made.
wow, loads of comments, but I must say people are rather interesting in making money fast... this doesn't happen that often.
- Author
cashmere-- no just add some links to your hubs, on the outside of hubpages, and that I find does the trick better than anything else.
I know many new hubbers are obsessed with their adsence stats and it can lead to a mess in the forums. However I need to do something about my writing. I'm still not making more than 50 cents a day with all my hubs put together.
I guess I need to write more about what people are willing to read rather than what I want to talk about.

I've got my eyes on a pack of Hubba Bubba so I'll use AdSense to pay for it someday.
This is a great post, thank you so much.
The first day I posted a Hub, I made 2.00 and some change in adsense, since then nothing. I understand the concept of content, but I guess I need to work a little harder at it, anyway cheers.
thanks for great article. really Adsense is the only option to earn money more
Thanks for the info! Great hub!

Awesome hub Rebecca. I love the way you write in terms that are easy to understand, in particular the part about keywords being too general and people not thinking to type them in.
