How to maximize your revenue with AdSense

You can maximize your revenue with Google AdSense program by earning more per click while maintaining the relevancy of ads on your page. You can provide better content on your website and increase the number of content pages on your site. Another way of maximizing revenue is to get higher clickthrough rate by getting more qualified traffic on your site.

The following tips can help you maximize your revenue with AdSense:

1. Add more pages to your website

You can display ads by Google AdSense on more than one page on your website. You can create more content pages to your website and benefit from this feature.

However, make sure that you are not creating repetitive pages or pages with irrelevant information. Also, none of your pages should violate the contract with Google AdSense. The more targeted and focused your webpage is, the easier it is for the search engine to provide you with relevant Ads.

2. Look for high income keyword areas

If an ad has a keyword that is comparatively expensive, then they will charge more money from the advertiser for that keyword. Every click that is made on an ad with expensive keyword will make you more money. Hence, you should target those ads with high income keywords. However, make sure that you don’t make absurd pages that are in no way related to your website just so that you make more money on ads. For example, don’t create an additional page about ‘wine’ on a website that talks about ‘baby food’ just because the keyword ‘wine’ generates more income and you want to get more advertising traffic.

Overture also has a keyword suggestion tool and a bid tool that shows which are the keywords that cost a lot of money. If the bids on Overture are high, then bids on Google are also likely to be high.

3. Create new websites that use high-paying keywords

As a webmaster, you can have multiple websites for just one Google AdSense account. There are no restrictions on the number of websites that one can have as long as you are the legal owner of the site.

If you find that your current website does not have a lot of high-paying keywords; you can do some research on other topics that are of your interest. If you are passionate about it, then you can create a brand new website on that topic. You can also research keywords regarding that topic using the various tools available like the Overture tool, Wordtracker, and so on. If you find high-paying keywords for this topic, then you can make a significant increase in your revenue.

4. Get more traffic

If your website is of good quality and has reasonable and effective content, then the visitors to your site will be qualified and not just random surfers. They would probably be interested in the added incentive offered by your website in the form of relevant ads and will be inclined towards clicking on them.

You can use various resources to market your website on the internet using SEO strategies and other such techniques.

5. Create purposeful pages

The purpose of your website should not be just to put up any information just for the sake of displaying it on the internet. You should not create pages in a haphazard or whimsical manner. You will lose important traffic if you do not take due care in creating and fine-tuning your website.

You can create a website with different pages, each having a separate purpose, be it to sell a product or service, to get a high search engine ranking, or to get the most relevant ads and generate advertising revenue through Google AdSense.

6. Write effective content for your webpages

Give specific information in your webpages. Do not write unrelated content. Make sure that you use high quality content that contains keywords that will get you to the top of the search engines. Try to give plenty of helpful information to the visitors of your site on a topic that interests them. This way your visitors will stay at your site longer and come back more often, and so they are more likely to click on the Google Adsense ads.

7. Choose the right ad format

You are given an option to choose the format or layout of your ad. That way you get to choose how you would like ads to be displayed on your webpage, either in vertical or horizontal format as well as a cube type format. Search engines like Google have not explicitly mentioned which format works best, you are expected to test formats and choose what is best for you based on your own judgment.

However, it is generally recommended to use vertical format instead of horizontal format as people are more likely to notice ads in vertical format. In horizontal format, once the visitor to your site has scrolled down, he/she will probably not scroll up to click on the ad. Hence, if the ads are in vertical format, they will be present alongside the content of your webpage and will be more easily noticed by the visitor. It is worth noting, that on engines like Google itself, you will find ads displayed in the vertical format. You can also choose banners for your webpage if you find it helpful.

8. Be good and no tricks!

Do not play games with Google AdSense just to squeeze unfair revenue from their service. Google has a highly sophisticated technology that is able to detect fraud. They will eventually catch up with you and if you participate in click fraud they will not pay you the money that you fraudulently ‘earned’. Google AdSense is a highly profitable program and there is no need to try fraudulent methods because if you use it legitimately you will end up earning a lot more money.

Don’t use false keywords or incorrect filenames for your webpage. Don’t click on the ads on your own webpage. Google AdSense is a rewarding program and you must use it right.
