My first post on this blog was 2 weeks ago - February 13. The first post was entitled Make Money with Adsense . The goal of this blog is three fold; I want to rank this blog on page 1 in Google for the term (keyword) just mentioned, I want to use the authority gained with such a ranking to push my money site to the top of the serp’s by way of a link from this site and I want to prove to my readers that my system works.
So what have we accomplished in two weeks?
Two weeks ago my money site was ranked #6 on Google for the term “Make Money with Adsense”. Not bad but it didn’t produce a great deal of traffic in 6th spot.
Number 6 in Google
So… how does one push a site up the serp’s to top spot?
One way is to create a new site targeting the keyword in question, round up some keyword anchored backlinks and get the new site ranking well for the same term. Once you accomplish that simply send the original money site a link using the targeted keyword in the anchor. How long this process takes will depend on you and your resources. In my case about two weeks. The point here is to show you that it works and you can speed things up a bit by using a free host such as Today.com. Yes - you could use a self-hosted site but then you wouldn’t have the advantage of the trust and authority already built up on the Today.com domain. As a subdomain you can leech off some of the authority which is faster than starting a new domain from scratch.
So what have we accomplished in two weeks?
Let’s start with this sites rankings - what keywords have I targeted and where do they now sit in the serp’s. (Btw - new readers can find descriptions for various SEO terms like “serp’s” on the SEO Terminology page)
Today.com provides a handy dandy recap of all the search terms that people have found my site for in the search engines. The keywords are shown below. (Click image and then use Magnifier to enlarge further)
Make Money with Adsense Keywords
Using this list I plunk the relevant terms into SEO Elite’s keyword rank checker and monitor the daily rankings in Google.
Like so…
SEO Elite’s Keyword Rankings on Google
I have highlighted the main terms I want to rank well for - these are the terms that I will concentrate my backlinking efforts on. As you can see - most of the main keywords are already on page 2 or better in Google’s search rankings. My primary term is in 5th spot although it is still subject to some daily bouncing back and forth in the serp’s. Overall - not bad for two weeks of work; a half dozen posts augmented with a couple of dozen backlinks. The key of course are the backlinks. Where did they come from and more importantly - what keywords are anchored in those backlinks?
Let’s look shall we…
Keyword Anchored Adsense Backlinks
As you can see it doesn’t take a lot of backlinks to rank #5 for a relatively competitive term if you have backlinks that use your primary keyword in the backlink.
In the first paragraph I said I had three objectives for this site.
I wanted it ranking on page 1 in the serp’s for “make money with Adsense”…
Serp ranking for today.com Adsense blog
Done.
I wanted to show you that my system works… Done.
I wanted to get my money site ranking number 1 in Google for the same term…
Make money with Adsense
Done.
And while we are at it - I mentioned that ranking for “How to” keywords is always a good idea as that is a term used by people searching for info - they are the people who click on Adsense ads.
In this case “How to Make Money with Adsense” and “How to Make Money Adsense“
How to make money with Adsense
Done.
How to make money Adsense
and Done!
Any questions?
To this point I have shown you what SEO is and how effective it is for targeting traffic. To make money with Adsense you first have to understand SEO . It is the process you must use to drive targeted search engine traffic to your site - no other traffic will produce the same results with Adsense.
I will now concentrate on showing you my methods for optimizing your site in order to achieve the best results using Adsense. SEO will deliver the traffic. Adsense will convert that traffic into dollars.
