$2,000 - $4000 Yearly Ad Program Earnings
September 17th, 2006 :: Permalink :: Trackback Posted in Make Money Online
I have posted several times and mentioned as a way to generate income by selling ads and referring people to join the program. I expect to get $2000 - $4000 from this program alone in a year - depending which way the traffic is heading. So far it’s growing steadily. The ratio between sold links and referred publishers/clients is somewhere around 1:3. It’s fluctuating a bit, and I only have statistics for few months, so it’s bit early to give a better estimate for a year. I presume $3000 won’t be far, while $2000 being a pessimistic estimate and $4000 being slightly optimistic estimation.
How You Too Can Get Started-
Sign Up for the publisher program (make money > publisher program).- Follow their instructions- Put some text links and banners to your website and mention the program in your blog- Each time a publisher or a client signs up, you receive $25- Each time somebody buys a link from you, you earn some $$$
Details on how I’m making money with the program
As those of you who read this site daily or quite often know - I’m extremely interested in trying different ways to make things happen. Sometimes I fail, but then I’m ready to try some other approach. Sometimes I get totally stuck, see no results. Sometimes I fail even more… but in the end: I always remind myself that this is just one incident that won’t last long. This setback means that I need to improve my way of doing business.
For example: I tried several advertisiment solutions. I tried one maybe 6 months ago and I earned 1 cent in 3 days. I thought “whadda heck is this”. And I stopped displaying *any* ads for several months. I don’t know what was the reason I started trying again, but I wanted to test and see if I could make money online using ads. I decided to try
Google AdSense. I noticed that with little testing and optimization I could reach couple of dollars a day… but in exchange I had to mess up my site layout. I avoid the extreme and decided to stick just some Google ads on this site and managed to see roughly $1 a day. I was happy with this for then.After having Google and noticing how dependant it was on daily traffic, I decided to try something else. I don’t know where I saw it first, but I managed to get into TLA. I made $164 in the first month. I expected nothing, and then got really amazed about the results. I mentioned the program, optimized my site description and saw more links sold and client & publisher referrals. The trend seems to be going into a better direction, and $3000 within a year from this one ad program alone won’t be far.
Brief summary on how to make most of the program
I’ve found out that there’s some important things to make money with the program.
Tip #1: Feel free to ignore what others say
I got blamed, accused and insulted because of the ad program. Some said that ad programs like this have nothing to do with
game development and that I should stick with selling games rather than ads. I’m 100% thankful for all the comments, as they gave me lots of insight on what to do. Then I did some math: was I going to give away $3000 yearly income because some guys thought that it’s not what I should do? The decision to stick with the ads might have hurt some people and make them angry, but unfortunately it’s very difficult to please everybody. There’s always some guys who won’t like what you are doing. One very positive email I got had this line: “You are free to write whatever you want, and I’m 100% free to ignore what you say.” I think that’s what matters. We both - you and I - are free to act the way we want. I won’t be focusing on telling about the ads in every post, but I’ll mention them once and a while. And you are free to ignore what’s being said. I think this is a great deal, and if somebody is hurt by my comments I truly apologize - but I have a business to run, and our dogs really need their food.Tip #2: Banners don’t perform wellI
really want you to test this. It might be that the banners work much better depending on your site. Some forums might do really well with banners, but I haven’t seen any additional increase on revenue after setting the banners. I’m going to test them more to see how they perform. Better results have come simply by telling people about the program. I recommend having a text link to your writings where you can tell people about the system.
Tip #3: Think about the buyer when you make your site description
Which site would you buy from these:
1) Site that’s described: “Game development site”or
2) Site: “3D game development blog with 3000 monthly unique visitors from Northern America and Europe according to awstat (September 2006). Advertisers get a blog post after purchasing the link.”
Think about the buyer. Think what you would like to know before you’d buy a slot.
Tip #4: Set up a sponsor page
To be honest, I don’t know how well this performs (too late to tell), but you might be interested in setting up a
sponsor page where you tell about your site.
Tip #5: PatiencePatience.
It may take some time before you see the results, but be patient. One guy told that the program sucks, but he decided to use the tip #3 and saw his first link sale after simply changing his site description. I’ve seen weeks passing without a single link being sold, but then on one night I suddenly sell 2 links. It takes patience.
It’s up to you what you do next
If you’ve read this far, then you probably are ready to
Sign Up for the program. It’s totally up to you if this has anything to do with games business. I can tell only facts - and the fact is that this one program alone is generating me a decent yearly income.
