$2049.43 with Adsense in a single day

Is it possible to still earn money with Adsense? A lot of the Gurus will say no, but I disagree. I’ve been trend blogging for a little over a year and I’ve learned a few things about this technique and it pays off for me. Now those of you who know me know I don’t normally talk about how much money I earn and exactly how I earn it, but this day really got me excited and I had to brag a little to my good friend Jay of Datmoney about the accomplishment. I promised Jay’s readers that I would show some proof, so here goes. The following shows a single day’s earning on Adsense and the majority of it is from a post I wrote over a year ago in about 15 minutes.

This day was a couple of weeks ago and needless to say this was a good day. While I’ve had good days before I’ve never had a single day quite this good. Lets show one I took about 10AM this morning which shows the last 7 days. This one does not include the 2K listed above.

Since I normally get the majority of my traffic in the late afternoon and evening today will likely turn out to be a $400-$500 dollar day. Now I realize I have not really told anyone how I did this. I did mention trend blogging, but its my method of trend blogging and for many it would not even be referred to as trend blogging.

I thought of just writing it out here on the site, but then people would read my methods and implement them causing competition for me, without me getting any benefit. So that is not going to work.

I did have an idea on how I can release some of these tips in the manner which stays in line with the mission of No Nonsense Internet Tips and still allows me to protect my strategy.

I purchased an autoresponder last year for a tax deduction, but haven’t really used it. It was one of those off the cuff purchases where I really did not have a plan for it, but bought it anyway. Well my accountant( who is also my wife) has been asking me about ROI for certain expenses including the autoresponder account. Well so now I can solve two problems at once. I will start sharing some of my better tips to people who subscribe to my list. I’m not saying I will not ever push you a product which I think you may be able to use, but I’m not like a lot of Internet Marketers where I have to push a product on you with every email. Nor will I email you every day. So if you want some of my strategies then look in the top right corner and subscribe to my list.

There is actually a couple of tips waiting right now in the queue that helps me with SEO and SE ranking for my posts right now. I will likely put together a step by step guide of how I set up a trend blog and get it to earning more than a couple of bucks a day on adsense soon. I do have a couple of items on my plate so I won’t have time to do this for a few weeks, but I will put it together and make it available to people who are loyal subscribers to my list.

Good luck to everyone in their blogging endeavors.

Growing your Blog through development of readers

There is a really interesting post over at TechCrunch today on development of your readers. Neil makes some very valid points and offers some ways you can better engage your readers and as a result create more loyalty.

This is something we probably do not do enough of. Of course we are always obsessed about out RSS numbers and the traffic, but do we ever take the time to understand what people really want. It make’s sense if you find out what some of your readers want, then there are probably more people out there that want the same thing.

So what have you done lately to engage your audience? I know I have not done much, but I’m always open to ideas.

WordPress 2.7 Coltrane

I was just taking a look at the new version of wordpress, Coltrane, and it looks pretty cool. WordPress is really making a lot of progress through the past few versions. I’ve been a fan of WordPress for a long time and its pretty much my platform of choice for building websites of all types. While WordPress is designed as a blog platform, with the right plugins it functions just fine as a content management system. Many people are starting to use WordPress in all sorts of ways which are very far from what you would call a blog. Regardless of how you use it, its a great platform and can really help you manage your web presence.
