It was only a few months ago that I was barely making the 100 buck a month minimum with adsense. But this month I already went over 300 bucks!
I attribute it all to the people here who have helped me understand the whole keywords and back linking stuff.
Getting a free trail of market samurai and watching the videos that come with it has helped a lot too. I will not buy it, but the free info you get is well worth the trail.
It really helps you to see how just one word can mean the difference between no SE hits and hundreds. I now look up my key words every time I make an article.
97% of that has come from my own sites, not hubpages. But that is mainly because I don't have that many hubs.
I still make most of my income from affiliate sales on my sites. But I hope to increase adsense earnings over time to have it as much or more than my affiliate sales.
Thanks everyone for all the great advice!
Congratulations! Job well done.
Now for me to get up there....
Holy Crap!
I'm happy making $5 a month from it. Well,...I was.
Must learn your secrets.
Thanks everyone. Anyone can do it, you just need to study your keywords and competition. Then put as much content out there as you can.
I still strive for quality articles, not spammy sound bites. A good quality, full article with the right key words will always get you at least some hits.
So once you can do that it's just a matter of how many you can get out there. The more you have out on the net the more you will make.
Good Work! I have only written one hub so I have lots to learn. Thanks for the encouragement now...back to work!
hey, welcome to HP chriskat! great first hub, btw.
Bill, congrats! it's so nice to hear success stories. a party at the Harry Potter magic wand shop??
Thanks. Party huh, how about at Halloween horror nights? I'm going this Thursday night, should be fun.
Way to go mate! It is always great to hear these success stories. Now you gonna buy the next round of drinks?
Sure, just stop by around 7:00 and the beers on me!
Sorry, you'll have to handle that yourself. I guess the beer would have to be pretty good huh?
I can almost taste it
I guess its lucky I prefer a red wine, and wait, I have some
Congrats Bill, your patience with keywords "paid off".
That's great news! Here's to many more of those months!..and then some!
Thanks again, I'm going to try to make an extra hundred each month, that's my goal for the next few months.

Short Pat Pat on the back, now for all you big money ad-sense guys and gals, I have analyzed my traffic and the convergence of 200/400/1 seems to be a tipping point in the acceleration of earnings, since I hit 200/400 mark, I have had some earnings pretty much every day (though not always from...

I finally reached Adsense payout last month but all I see is that payment will be sent 'by' the 31 of May. Does that mean that payment could be any old date or will it be made 'on' the 31st? Not sure I understand what they mean by by the 31st of May
