It is worth trying. And I was thinking of trying something like that. But, not with my own account. I would buy some verified account, set up a dummy site and try it. Thank you for sharing your experience. It was highly educational.

It's not worth trying unless you are eager to try breaking the rules/law and stealing.
There are plenty of legit ways to make money.

Yes its still profitable

 

[grimgrin]

i think the thread topic is TRUE only for amazon youtube etc.. 2020 reality. Or I am wrong?

Where the visitor came from makes a huge difference.

If they came from searching Google, the CPC will tend to be higher than if they came from Twitter.

Whoa! That's good a point actually. Traffic from social media tend to have low CPC.

Yep.

It used to be huge.. I was bringing in £15,000-£30,000 a month from it by doing next to fuck all.

 

[debaakram1]

yes still profitable but has alot of problems like limited account , low cpc etc

 

[Leads-Sniper]

I would say adsense are beneficial but don't focus on adsense more.

 

[ScreamingMidget]

I've actually thought about just selling the ad space to visitors.

$50 for a year.

Damn, that's a lot. Well, do you know any ways to get traffic to site through advertisement that will allow me to do traffic arbitrage these days? Without getting my site or account banned?

How to make it profitable?

Can you please share your take on this?

$50 a year?

Isn't that too low? Is it profitable and worth it?

 

[virtualbyron]

I didn't understand what you meant though. Can you please explain?

Well, I am choosing long tail keywords with high CPC and low SEO difficulty.

By ads density I mean the number of ads for this particular set of keywords for a specific period.

Many advertisers = a lot of competition to make their ads seen = high PCP and security for you to have good-paying ads every time.
Because if not, you will get random ads based on the browsing history of your visitors, and it's not worth it.

Why for a particular period?
Because some keywords can pay very high for the summer and worth three times less the winter.
To check all this, I use semrush, and it performs well, but maybe they are some other useful tools.

15k from adsense per month ??? Man you surely got many sites is it ? or just amazing one site which bring lots of traffic ??
or you got link with Youtube channel is it?

Wow! Thank you for such a clear explanation. What you said is totally correct.

Yes, I have checked all the keywords for seasonality.

Mostly my niche doesn't have much to do with seasonality. It's mostly stable.

However, it gets even more search volume and even more CPC at the beginning of the year and ending.

Well, it surely is rare to see people make that much with AdSense. However, there are some who does.

I would love to learn though how one makes that much from AdSense. And if possible I would replicate it and improve the process with trial and error.

Its the traffic game with ads income. More traffic means more ad impressions and clicks.
The traffic country plays major role.

Moreover, affiliate income can easily beat ads income. For USA traffic, ads will give you maximum $30 eCPM but affiliate links can give upwards of $100 eCPM.

Check @Shaunm thread for affiliate websites journey.

That is very true indeed. Affiliate commissions are more effective compared to ads.

For AdSense and other advertisement networks niche is also a determinant factor.

Finance, law, insurance and such can earn much more per clicks. While movie review sites, traditional news sites tend to make much less for publishers.

it takes TIME to be honest. The Only way I experience before within just one week , per day can earn 70++ is go viral but is not Quiz site

somehow is showing how much your social media account worth , I pay for this is someone selling this service his project but sadly twitter ban the api , short live happyniess

next it does hog your host side a lot rubbish data but I don't mind as long can bring me money that site but sadly as mention twitter ban the api thus can't work anymore

if never ban and still around I can be quite confident by now per month at least I got constantly 1k at least even it don't go viral

I feel is hard to judge a lot factors involve isn't? I got mention some days traffic high yet i don't earn at least one buck
whereas some days low traffic ironic i managed to reach one buck

and do note the traffic is from USA and other tier 1 countries

I not sure I get it right? I noticed when start of the day if you managed to have some clicks , as the day go on , and your traffic increase per day , the earnings will be better?

I've got millions of Twitter followers, but they devalued Twitter traffic.

$50 a year?

$50 a year x 2000 ad spaces.

Not a bad starting place.

 

[SigmaMale]

Not my earnings, but someone I know (he claims he makes 50k a month).
I'm not gonna reveal how he does it though. Judge for yourself if Adsense still works or not

so your traffic mostly from twitter?

A lot of traffic and Adsense as a guess.

Adsense works, but you need the correct traffic. As I've already said, Google devalued a lot of social media traffic, presumably as they don't feel it converts for the customers.

Any site that gets search engine traffic and a lot of it, will bank easy.

so your traffic mostly from twitter?

Yeah. I get about 100,000 visits a day.

I doubt just one site?
next link with his Youtube ? I do know if you link to your youtube , and got approve for adsense
they combine all the earnings from your site and youtube side.

All i'm gonna say is that it's from Youtube and multiple channels. Adsense is the best with Youtube in my opinion, sites don't earn like they used to.
