Could a 5 day old blog post achieve No.1 Top Ranking in Google? Well I didn’t think so until now. As much as I am as curious as you, I figured I might as well try to find out what could have contributed to this search ranking phenomenon. I might be able to uncover something interesting just fresh from my last Case Study: What Google Looked For In My Last 5 Posts.

Whorush: 18 sites by this AdSense ID

My recent post in question is Try My Cheap Link Building Service published on  Sep 8, 2011. It achieved Google No. 1 Position just 5 days after being published and now hovers between No. 1 and No. 3 spots in Google. I had expected it to do the Google dance and then go away but it didn’t and I thought why not just go figure that out. Yes even it gets pushed down the SERPs much later.  I like now to do a quick case study and provide my own take as to what may have contributed to this unexpected search ranking.

The Statistics: for the Keyword “Cheap Link Building Service”

1. Global Search Count (Monthly) : 1000 2. Strength of Competition (Micro Niche Finder) : 103 (> 50 is relative high competition) 3. Inanchor Count: 205:  Intitle Count: 154; Inurl Count : 122

Permalink Chosen: ../cheap-link-building-service

Keyword “cheap link building service” on first sentence of  first paragraph.

Followed onpage SEO of the following:

Here’s My Thoughts Why It Got No. 1 Top Ranking In Google:

1. I studied all the 10 sites on page 1 for the keyword phrase ‘cheap link building service‘. I found that non of my competitors had the exact permalink as the keyword as I did. Good thing that I had purposely put the blog title as ‘Try My Cheap Link Building Service’ and made the permalink as ‘Cheap Link Building Service’. It’s a powerful SEO I learned from all the ebooks I bought.

2. The blog title must contain the keyword you want to rank. The shorter this keyword the better too as it is more keyword optimized.

3. My homepage displays the keyword phrase “cheap link building service’. Once on the navigation link on the header (no-follow) and the other on the right side bar (do-follow). I wrote about this technique a long time ago.

4. I did not do any extensive link building. Just used my favorite plugin and put the keyword “cheap link building service” as a “backlink” in the plugin admin page so as to display this url across hundreds of blogs. Check my post on this amazing plugin: I Got Google Page 1 Overnight Using This Plugin and how this is easily done.

5. Except for one site having the same domain age, all other sites were much newer. The conclusion I can draw is that the older the domain the better chance you get in achieving top ranking in Google.

6. There were 5 other sites that have higher page rank than my page which just means that page rank is not as important as other factors when you want a top ranking in Google like Google no. 1 position. It just gives you about 20 percent added advantage.

7. It just reaffirms what we already know and that Google still uses exact named domain (keyword) as a critical factor in determining Top Ranking In Google.

What is Natural Link Building

So far I have yet to find someone give a definite answer to what really is natural link building or what is deemed a natural backlinks growth. Does this mean, we do all the things naturally without any outside help – and once you achieved that other Internet Marketers or bloggers will only be too happy to link to you? Perhaps like Wikipedia because many people I know would be ready and willing to do just that? But then again how many of us can claim to be in the same league as this established big website?

Building Backlinks via Automation

Now many people always get the wrong ideas about automation and tend to associate automated tools with something not legitimate and sometimes black hat techniques. Now if this were true, any business that sells software and other sophisticated technological solutions to clients would have been closed down by Google a long time ago. What I am trying to say is that these automation tools are created with good intentions. They may well be used for ulterior motives but that is a separate matter altogether. These tools are designed to help anyone in business be it the brick and mortar ones or the more familiar online work at home businesses of you and me. I have used many of them to run my business and I can’t imagine continuing in business without these tools. In short if you are not leveraging on what these tools are offering for your business, you are missing big time.

What Do People Say About Natural Link Building Growth

While scouting for another good automation tool to help me cut down most of the mundane and laborious work, I asked a very prominent software developer. Gabriel developed the now much talked about automated tool on backlink building called ‘Link Thunder’ and I posed this question to him in my favorite Warrior Forum. My question and my worry was would building 3000 backlinks a day like what this guy achieved with his Link Thunder backlink tool do more harm than good?:

Here are just a few of the many testimonials from forum members who used Link Thunder to get backlinks:

There’s lot’s more testimonial if you care to read them here:

What Do YOU Say About Natural Link Building Growth

Share with us what you think. Do you really believe in doing backlink building the natural way or with automation tools. If you used tools, did you in any way get penalized by Google.

(Update) My Own Results Achieved With Link Building:

Today, especially with what we have all been through with the economy, many people are wondering what the best ways to make extra money are.   The internet has opened up a whole range of possibilities that are open to anyone.  In this article, I would like to explore Affiliate marketing, which, in my opinion, is one of the best ways to make some extra money online.

What Is Affiliate Marketing?

Simply put, it is selling other people’s products and earning a commission on any sales you make.  You can sell physical or digital products, each one having its own advantages.

Digital products normally offer a much higher percentage of commission and can be pretty fast movers if you are promoting what people are interested in.

Physical products, though offering a lower rate of commission, may be higher priced, so your commission can still add up to a good amount.

You will need to search for what fits into your niche the best.   Always choose high quality products to offer as that is what will be best for your market and also remember that your name will be associated with the product.

Choose A Niche

You have heard the phrase “the jack of all trades, master of none” referring to someone who has a lot of skills in a lot of areas, but has not “mastered” any of them.  It is hard to become successful if you spread yourself too thin.  The same holds true with affiliate marketing.   To be successful, you have to get to know your market and be known in your market.  Your goal should be to become the “go to” person in that niche.  Become acquainted with your market’s needs and interests.  Write about them and offer them solutions to their challenges.  They will soon be coming to you for advice and recommendations.

Let’s drill this down to an example.  Instead of offering music CD’s, vitamins, apparel and a host of other items as an affiliate, concentrate on one niche.  Let’s say you enjoy golf.  As an affiliate, you could promote golf clubs and become an expert on which clubs are the best choice for individuals.   Or you can go the route of offering golf clothing, shoes, and visors/hats.  Even with a particular niche, it’s a good idea to narrow it down to a certain aspect.  Then people know who to come to when they are looking for something in your area of expertise.

Affiliate marketing is a low-cost business to start and you can get going in it pretty quickly as you don’t need to develop a product.  That is what  makes it one of the best ways to make extra money.

This update is designed to reduce rankings for low-quality sites-sites which are low-value add for users, copy content from other websites or sites that are just not very useful. At the same time, it will provide better rankings for high-quality sites-sites with original content and information such as research, in-depth reports, thoughtful analysis and so on.

What’s The Impact:

This change is impacting about 12% of search results, so many people have been greatly hit by this search algorithm change by Google.

Niche sites have been hit most simply because many people have been exploiting the relatively easy opportunity to earn quick money online this way. Even the recent Google May Day debacle did little to keep them away from going the easy route including creating MFA (Made for Adsense) sites at their own risks. Even if their sites were not specifically MFA, they still resorted to using clever softwares e.g. auto blogging software that could scrap content easily from other websites.

Google was targeting sites that are low quality and specifically those that do not add value for people. Some article directories fall into this category although interestingly with different magnitude. Even Ezinearticles took a hit although not as much as others. On the other hand I cannot understand why Hubpages took a very big hit from this algorithm change since it only accepts unique content before approving these pages. But as of now, duplicate content is still not penalized so long as they are not found on the same site.


Has the new Google Algorithm affected my 20+ niche websites?

No it has not and that is a relief. I can only say many of my niche sites’ keyword ranking remains the same because I preferred to focus on writing quality contents on my niche sites. I avoided any black hat techniques as I like my visitors to have a feel good experience when they land on my sites, even if they are a small niche site. So it pays to have unique content sites with good, useful information and it just reaffirms what Google looks for in a good website.

I did have a couple of WordPress blogs that are run completely on auto-pilot but not using the much Google loathed auto-blogging plugin. I used the WordPress plugin called UniqueArticleWizard, to publish free unique articles. I would say Google does not mind this because they are as legitimate as can be as I link back to the author of these articles. It would be kind of like guest posting on my blog.

Well let me know if you were affected by the Google Search Algorithm change in anyway. It just means that Google can be tough if it felt there was a need to make big changes even if it incurs the wrath of thousands of bloggers who are always thinking of clever and faster way to learn how to make money blogging.

My first Authority Website that I started on Dec 31, 2010 now gets constant traffic and earns its first adsense click albeit only 81 cents after 2 weeks. But I am thrilled to say the least. Why?

Well here’s 5 reasons why before I go into a little more detail….

Because:

1. it is not ranking in any specific keywords in Google (yet) so where did the traffic come from you might ask?
2. my belief in John XFactor takes me to another level of success. Success has many steps and this is just the first step that clearly tells me that his Authority Site Adsense Guide works.
3. I took actions 15 months ago when I started building micro niche adsense sites.
4. I can now prove to people that the best thing I have learned from XFactor about starting an authority site is – that you do not need to focus too much on specific keywords for your website.
5. building an authority website is a worthwhile investment of time and little money.

How Much is my traffic

Since a week ago I am getting about 5 – 10 impressions a day when I see in my adsense admin. That to some people do not mean too much but for me I  look beyond the figures. I look at consistency and it’s daily impressions that I am getting for a new site that has only 8 pages. Authority site that is not even ranking in Google. So imagine when it has 80 pages, 800 pages – now that’s the big picture.

Where does the traffic come from?

Well that’s a good question too considering that most people (like I was) put off launching an authority website because they think they don’t stand a chance with all those well established players in their niche.

My traffic does not come from just one or two keyword or keyword phrases. Like they figured it out, I don’t stand a chance.

My traffic comes from……hundreds of keyword phrases but I don’t lose hair over backlinking and other conventional methods of getting each of these hundreds of keywords ranked. That would be an insurmountable feat to accomplish. The secret? I just write very long articles. Read up my last post titled : First Authority Website Launched|Enter Web Content Studio and you will know what I mean.

Now I don’t write long articles for the sake of making it lengthy. Foolhardy that would be. It’s just that I ensure each of my authority website article has all the keyword phrases that all the top 10 websites for my niche has – yes all of their web pages.

Writing Themed Articles Works

My method of writing themed content articles that I learned from Dr Andy Williams is working very well.  When you theme a page this automatically “optimizes” the page for long tail phrases. The reason I got interested in this technique is because Andy revealed why it has to work….because Google relies on it in their algorithms and here is the proof that you can read it too. Andy did extensive research on this subject and discovered that all the pages in the first page of Google for any keyword have a core group of words on the page. Obviously Google is silent on this but it just means that its algorithm in ranking requires a website to contain Latent Semamtic Indexing but Andy calls it “theming”.

He tells us that one of the clearest signs that he believes Google uses LSI or theming in ranking a website is that in many of our searches in Google for a particular keyword, Google shows that this keyword has millions of such pages. Yet when you actually scroll down to the last page it is usually much lesser. He tested for one keyword phrase “blood sugar spike” which Google knows about 48 million pages but only recognized 500 pages. His conclusion. Google could only find 500 pages that meet the LSI or themed keyword criteria it expects to see. The rest of the 48 million pages – well they most likely go to their supplementary index. Take a look at the image below and you will understand better:

Well coming back to my own Authority Website:

So far I have written only themed content articles of about 8 pages over 5 silo’ed categories and they are all long articles of more than 1000 pages each. All these articles use keyword phrases ranging from 1, 2, 3 and 4 keywords and each article contains at least 50 different keyword phrases belonging to the top 10 websites that Google ranks on its page one.

So when I get the traffic coming to visit my website, I do not know which particular keyword phrase brings it here, nor do I care.  I could if I wanted to by installing Google Analytics but chose not to as I am too busy to over-analyse these things so long as I get the traffic.

Well you don’t have to buy the Web Content Studio if it does not serve your purpose at the moment. However for the time being you could just give it some thought and write themed word articles knowing that Google uses it to rank your website. Food for thought!

Happy New Year 2011!! Here’s wishing everyone the best in your Internet Marketing and other online business opportunities lots of success. Beware long article!

Today Dec 31, 2010 is definitely a good day as it marked the day I launched my first Authority website. Yep, finally after a month of deliberating and doing some research as to how I should do this, I bought the necessary tools and blueprint, and I have today published my website and 4 “authority” pages.

The tools I used for Authority Website:

1. Xfactor’s ‘The Authority Site Adsense Guide’
2. Dr Andy Williams’ Web Content Studio

Part II of my Adsense journey Begins

For those of you who remembered about 15 months ago I started my adsense journey and bought myself the now famous Micro Niche Adsense Course from XFactor as well as XsitePro, a powerful web building software and launched more than 20 niche sites during this time.

Well guess what…looks like history is about to repeat itself. Part II of my adsense journey begins officially today and I’m turning 3 of these niche sites into authority websites as well as adding a brand new health niche authority website. I’m still following XFactor (John)’s method only this time he just released his latest blueprint for ‘Advanced Adsense Publisher Guide to Making More Money With less sites‘. That’s perfect for me as I’ve recently stopped adding more niche sites and a few months ago already had thoughts of making a few of my sites to authority sites. I guessed John must have read my mind.

Why Authority Websites?

I’ll be perfectly honest with you. For a long time I was living under a misconception of what an authority website really is and who is fit to create one. I once thought that only the “big guns” or the more established marketers should be the ones since they already have the “authority tag” accorded to them. Not quite really as I found out recently.

Now I know an authority website need not be another CNN or Yahoo News nor must it be the most beautifully designed site. In short you and I could well launch an authority website within the next 1 week – if we wanted to that is. I’ve experienced some success in building niche sites and now building a few authority sites is just putting that icing on the cake. I called it a natural progression. It’s also called focusing on the long term, creating passive income and generally working towards making more money online only this time using few sites

Some Information about XFactor’s Authority Site Adsense Guide

It would be impossible to give a meaningful review of this advanced adsense blueprint without giving away all his techniques and that would be unethical so I won’t even go near there. So if whatever little information I could share with you may seem somewhat hard to comprehend, please excuse me and you would know why this is so.

It’s a very comprehensive book and John goes into great length to make his 217 pages book so easy to understand. It’s not an extension of his earlier book which I bought 15 months ago; it’s his second book. There are many tips that he gave but to me the most important thing I learned from him was how he makes creating authority websites so simple.He made it look simple because he teaches how to theme our articles as a part of his technique. He uses Web Content Studio to help find all the theme words for any articles we plan to write, articles that Google loves.

If you do not know what “theming an article is”, think LSI and long tail keywords to give you an idea. It’s also about how it will get you lots of traffic even if the keywords are highly competitive. So if you’ve been trained to believe you should only do keyword research and focusing on choosing keywords that have more traffic and less competition, that’s old school and a lot more difficult to do, I might add since everyone does that. With theming, it’s about less traffic as far as all the keyword tools tell you, insane competition but you still get lots of traffic all the same. It sounds a little hard to understand but the ebook will go into every great detail. It’s worth the $39 I paid for (first timer to his course pays $97).

I have just learned the proper way of ”siloing” my sites and that is not only good site structure for easy navigation on your site by your visitors, I’ve learned long ago it’s good for SEO too. Well that’s just a small part of what his Adsense Guilde teaches, the same techniques he uses to now make over $1000 per day.

How I Use Web Content Studio To Write Articles For My Authority Sites

This strategy is simple yet very powerful. When I first read about it, naturally I was simply amazed at this technique. I was hoping I could save some money not buying the tool and tried to do the work manually. The result – it’s too tedious and time consuming and at the end left me frustrated because I couldn’t check how well or badly I had done the “theming” process myself. And I can’t possibly do this for every article that I write. Well enter Dr Andy Williams’ Web Content Studio that cuts down 3 hours of research work to a mere few minutes. I relented, paid for this tool and now think this is the best tool I’ve ever come across.

With theme keywords strategy,I write my article relatively long – about 1000 words but with this tool, it’s really quite easy but you just follow a “process”.

What is Web Content Studio?

It contains a set of tools in a suite all under one big software application. This explains the name “studio” and all the tools are located on conveniently placed tabs that you can click to easily go to. So you have a scratchpad that has an auto “grabber” feature that copies whatever research work you choose from any website that you conveniently placed in your “bookmarks”, another tab in this software suite. Other tabs include ‘Editor”, ‘Researcher’, ‘Keywords’ and ‘Notes’.

These tools are cleverly thought of by Dr Andy Williams to help you research the keywords that Google expect from authority sites whenever you write your contents. So if you are planning to write an article on say “affiliate marketing”, this tool will query Google  for the phrase “affiliate marketing”, and visit all the relevant pages listed at the top 10 (you select how many) sites and extract for you all the theme words like “affiliate”, “network”, “advertising”, “commission:, “merchant” and theme phrases like “contextual advertising”, “revenue sharing”, “cost per action”, “compensation methods” used by these top 10 sites Google ranked.

Once you have these keywords presented in a report (again all shown in this “Studio”) the objective is to write your article (Editor tab) that includes all these theme words and theme phrases. How many and what words you used are really up to you (you just put a ’tick’ on these words) but in the manual that comes with your purchase of Web Content Studio, Andy explains and provides suggestions based on not just his theory but showing you his real live cases and the results achieved. The result is that you will learn just what it takes to write your best article with these theme words and phrases that Google expects to see.

Here is a quick summary of the process flow when I write each of my well themed articles (in WCS):

1. Create a blank article page
2. Do keyword research.
3. Clean the list using the compare against top 10 so you only get the most popular words in your final list of theme words.
4. Write your article.
5. Check theme of article.

There are quite a few videos that Andy provides to make you understand completely how to do it but I’ll just let you see one video on using the keyword spider to find the most important theme words:

Is Web Content Studio for you?

I guess only you will have the answer. For me, because I write articles everyday either researching for my clients when writing their articles or I write for my top niche sites especially the 3 sites that I decided to make them authority sites. This software is saving me lots of tedious time in my article research. The best part of using this tool for me is that I actually look forward to the next article that I write. I have to say both this and writing 1000 word articles 2 weeks ago would have been an insane thought.

Check out Dr. Andy William’s Web Content Studio to find out more about this powerful tool that makes writing articles your second nature.Similar Posts:

You probably can find millions of articles or blog posts written on “how to get instant free traffic”. But not quite what I’m going to show you how I do it – because I’ve not seen it published elsewhere by anyone.

Did I get your undivided attention?

To say that anyone can do it just after reading this post would be like taking you for a ride. No, not everyone under any circumstances will be able to do so. It has a few conditions that you must fulfill which I will explain. Still I’m sure there will be many people who meet the few conditions and who will be able to just get it started instantly after learning it.

Here goes….

The tools:

1. Micro Niche Finder

2. SpyFu

The Conditions:

1. Your website must be ranking in the top 3 spots in Google

2. Your site is a static (html) site

3. It’s a small niche

4. You have adsense on your website


Here’s how I do it….

1. I simply go to my Micro Niche Finder and search for new keywords that relate to and complement my site and specifically look for high paying keywords (>$5).  I just love this tool as it displays (yes quite invitingly too) the cost per click for each keyword phrase that I type in, along with other information. For this purpose I do not care much whether the new keyword phrase has a lot of competition – it really does not matter.

2. Then it’s time to go to SpyFu and type in this chosen keyword and confirm the value of the CPC – it should be very close to what you got from MNF.

3. Then write your content using this keyword phrase and ensure that you put a link to your new post on your homepage.

My thoughts:

I never get tired of using this method because the Micro Niche Finder makes it so easy to look for these high paying keywords. There is work involved in writing your content. But then again aren’t you already doing that when you are building contents on your website?  There is therefore no additional work but you’re just doing it a lot differently like trying to rank in top search engine ranking to generate the traffic. Yeah like everyone else.

Why do I say in this method you get instant traffic? Well because by virtue of your top 3 position (see condition #1), you are already receiving decent traffic. All I have to do now is divert some of this traffic to my new pages I’ve created and so far it has worked well for me. Experience has shown that even if you’re on Google’s #4 position you hardly get many clicks as most of them go to the top 3 sites: #1 – 40%, #2 – 22%, #3 – 9%

Why it works better in static site (using XsitePro2)- well that’s just my personal experience but you may have different opinion about this. Also with static sites, I have lesser distractions and can lead the traffic directly to the new pages I just set up. In fact many successful marketers can possibly write an ebook about using clever strategies of color, navigation and site structure to channel the traffic to wherever they want it to go next.

The key is in choosing the keyword phrases. This time, it’s no longer the usual ‘choose keyword with high searches and low competition’ that you always hear anymore. It’s more like ‘choose keyword that you think many people would use to search in the search engines’. This is not cast in stone but use a little common sense and imagine you are the one searching for the main keywords and finally landing on a website. Then just ask the question, “what else can this site offer me”. If you are able to answer this question, then that means that you have just provided an answer or a solution to the visitor. If you incorporate this thought provoking process each time you think of what new pages to create on your website, you will see an improvement in your CTR.

My Secret Tool Revealed-Adsense Crusher Template

Actually  I had wanted to reveal this “secret” i.e the WordPress template I have been using, in my last Adsense update “Google Adsense-Here’s How You Can Achieve 70 pct Increase Too“. But I couldn’t do so because Gabriel the WP template creator had not set up the affiliate program then. Well the good news is that he just did and here is the Adsense Crusher WordPress template (this is an affiliate link) that helped me so much to reach my previous target and will continue to help achieve my next target of $1000 per month.

What you can expect when you used the Slick Crusher WP Template

1. It’s specially created to get you exceptionally high CTR  to maximize Adsense earnings. The theme is the main ingredient for having a high CTR.

2. It’s SEO optmized

3. If there is anything you need to modify the theme, Gabriel does that for you too at your request, free! So you’re not just buying a theme but a lifelong service.

4. It allows you one set of images for all your posts or you can set up different images for any post you want and have default images for all the rest. You’ll be taught how simple it is to do this. (for me I put on every post 4 115X115 pictures at the top with keywords in the image alt text)

5. In Theme admin, you can select to show excerpts not the full posts in homepage and category pages

6. The color scheme is easily customizable in the theme admin.

7. An adsense guide which covers the theme installation is provided for you to follow. WordPress is extremely easy to use even if you are just starting out and have never done it before. In the guide you are given Gabriel’s personal email if you run into problems setting everything up so don’t be afraid to use it. (I’ve used it and trust me he is there for you)

8. When you purchase you get 2 Ebook guides (SEO strategies and theme install walk-through) + Slick WordPress theme plus a bonus marketing software Gabriel built that you can use to ping a list of your pages to about 130 sites.

9. The Adsense crusher system comes with white hat marketing & backlink strategies all explained in the ebook.

10. Included in the course are 3 main traffic and backlink strategies. You will learn to deconstruct effectively what your competitors have done right; how Gabriel uses web 2.0 properties to increase Google love and increase traffic etc

** If you are serious about purchasing, email me and I can provide you a real life blog with this theme.

My Thoughts

If you are searching for a magic pill or a quick “put money in my bank tomorrow” kind of method in adsense, this isn’t the one for you.  This is just a tool that has been developed, tested to give you very high CTR, one of 2 things that will increase your adsense income, the other being traffic.

You will still have to bring in the traffic yourself though so you will have to think about the quality of your contents on your blog and the backlinking strategies you currently follow.

How fast you can get to a $20 dollar or $50 day depends very much on your own effort and time but this Adsense Crusher system and WP Theme can help you expedite this time.

Well this post sort of marks my achievement of the second goal I had set for myself (the first being to surpass the $100 adsense per month needed to get the monthly check from Google). The second goal I had set for myself was achieving a daily adsense income of $10 per day. Not something to shout about for most adsense gurus I know, but for me it has taken a whole 14 months to ‘break the duck’.  So I’m experiencing a mixed feeling of relief, ‘wow’, ‘almost lost belief in myself’ all rolled into one. Last month (Oct) my adsense income was close to $450 which averages out to about $15 per day.

You don’t need to be a rocket scientist to tell that Oct appears like  the month that something fantastic must have happened since it registered a 70 percent increase from Sep and all the previous months never once crossed $300 before. So what happened and what broke the duck.

There is nothing secret but….

I focused on just 3 websites that were making the most money and plan out just one key strategy that I learned from Lisa Parmley. From what I learned from Lisa, she started making real money on adsense when she decided she just could not focus effectively on more than 20 sites and she made a conscious decision then to select randomly just 3 sites to promote and rank well in the search engines. And like they say, the rest was history.

I sort of just borrowed her idea but instead of selecting any 3 sites, I identified 3 of my best sites that fall under the 80:20 rule. 20 percent of my total sites that contributed to 80 percent of my total adsense earnings. Then I started work.  I took much effort to build these sites to at least 10 pages per site, with each site targeting a couple of good keywords. Now what makes my method different from Lisa’s is that while she started outsourcing (and spending thousands of money) to promote her new pages and doing much link building to get them highly ranked, I realize I just could not do this, not yet anyway.

Well I settled for the next best thing to do – I still created these 10 pages for the 3 sites with each page highly optimized but the massive link building will just have to wait. My additional web pages included a good combination of very highly competitive keywords with high paying keywords and low competitive keywords with average paying keywords. My main objective of having these additional pages is to give my visitors more information when they arrived at the site and I didn’t focus on ranking highly on the search engine – not yet then. That would be my next phase. Ultimately this approach helped to increase the quantity of clicks on the 3 targeted niche sites because many visitors checked out my new pages too.


The lesson you can take away here is that  some of these keywords I had optimized for helped to get better adsense returns because of higher cost per click I had selected from spyfu.com. This works well only because most of my 21 sites are ranking well and there is already traffic coming to these sites. You need enough traffic arriving at your home page to attract these visitors to the 10 additional pages. You can say that as of now, traffic is being channeled to these pages from the search engines but relying much on the keyword phrases of the homepage and not the 10 other pages.

Static HTML site or WP-Blogs Better?

About half of my sites are static html sites using the X-factor theme and I created them using my x-sitepro2 and the rest are created using WordPress blogs. I have to say each type has its own advantage. HTML sites look more professional and you can easily grow them to become authority sites, if you wish. WordPress blogs however are much easier to maintain because of the many free plugins that make them almost run on auto-pilot.

If there is one disadvantage I found in using blogs for my niche sites is that because it runs on auto-pilot, I tend to lose a little focus in terms of the linking work or optimizing new pages for more new keyword phrases. Yes the seeds of complacency sowing.

So who wins-  static sites or blogs? Well the 3 most profitable sites are all static html sites so I’m sure you can draw your own conclusion.

One Page site or Many Pages site better?

I have to say when I first started creating micro niche sites, my goal was to create as many of them as possible with just one page, excluding the default privacy policy, about, sitemap, etc of course. Over time I learned that this is not only risky but they cannot fulfill my primary objective of giving more information to the visitors.

Risky - Even if you have the best content with topic relevancy, just how much can you convince Google that your page is not a MFA(made for adsense) and from the grapevine, the big G seems to have untold mandate to ‘track and detroy MFA’ sites. Yeah and don’t forget Google outsources such work to humans, possibly out in India or the Philippines (nothing personal against them) to do this job so ‘mistakes’ can and will happen sometimes. You really don’t want to be at the wrong place at the right time do you?

User Experience - I don’t think any user searching for some specific information will find everything he needs on a one page website.  This is because your ads may not be totally relevant (depends on how many advertisers for the keyword phrase too) sometimes due to your own doing – if your article is not keyword-optimized. Secondly if your niche is relatively big, your one page article lacks the information or solution that he is searching for.

Niche Websites-Create 100 sites or 3 sites with 100 pages better?

Well if you read Lisa’s Truth Files, she is one living example of someone who made $10,000 in a month from just 3 high powered, highly ranked websites with 100′s of pages. That certainly quashed my belief for some time that you need to create more websites if you want to make more money in adsense. It’s an eye-opener for me.

My Next Step

I’ve just completed my initial stage where I’ve driven traffic mostly to my homepage for each of my niche sites. My next phase is to focus on the next 5 keyword phrases found in the sub-pages for my top 3 money making websites;  get them ranked on Google’s Page 1. When this is achieved it means that traffic to these pages will come from 2 sources, the first from the homepage and the second from search engines due to their page one ranking.
