I have been receiving queries on how much money I make online with my web site and blog. I’ve been shying away from this question because I have to hit $10K a month yet.

But, I’ve stumbled upon this post of Paula Neal Mooney and I realized that it is a good idea to share this kind of info to others who want to work at home and make money online. It is better if you will know how much a certain blogger or webmaster make money with the kind of blog or web site he is running. Though, some may overstate or understate their earnings. So, just evaluate and judge it by yourself.

My Top Money Makers

Below are my top money makers from January to July 2007. I started some of them only in the middle of the period:

Resell Rights Packs - $3,228.00
Adsense - $2,833.53
Commission Junction - $329.92
Kontera - $207.34
5 Pillar - $292.13
MaxBounty - $39.65
AuctionAds - $27.35

Web site traffic is the main factor to make money online. If you have a huge web site traffic, you can make huge money on the net. Honestly speaking, driving a good traffic to your site is not plain and easy. It needs dedication, patience, creativity, sociability and continuous learning. Here are the top 7 sources of free web site traffic that could help you.

My Online Advertisements

If you want to speed up increasing web site traffic and you are ready to invest some amount of money, use online advertising. Here are my online advertising that bring around 25% of web site traffic at an average cost of $100 a month:

Google Adwords
BidVertiser
Clicksor
Text Link Ads
AdBrite
LinkReferral

To maximize your ROI (Return on Investment), make sure that you give a clear direction on you site or blog for your visitors to follow. This is the direction that will guide them to find what they’re looking for. By doing so, you hit your goal as well.

My other minimal expenses are for my domain name and hosting, as follows:

Domain Name with Netfirms - $9.95/year (first year was $4.95)
Hosting with Hostmonster - $3.95/month with fantastic features

My Website Background

Honestly, I learned website building from scratch in 2005. Then, I registered my domain name in October of the same year. It was just for fun of having my own website to brag with my family and friends. I had zero knowledge in SEO, then. Hence, my domain name was not optimized.

I built my website in 2006 with nonsense content. On the later part of 2006, I learned the detailed SEO techniques from Ken Evoy, who has been instrumental to the success of several top money making web sites. So, I immediately revamped and redesigned my website. I began posting search-engine-optimized contents that help others make money online. From then, it has started gaining PageRank, receiving web site traffic from search engines and beginning to make money. And in January 2007, I started my blog and it reached PR4 in April.

So far, I am happy with the money I make with my website. I have a limited time for writing and posting blog entries as I’m still working as a slave horse. But, I am very much optimistic that I can make more money in the future. I see vast opportunities to work at home and make money online, full-time without a BOSS watching over my shoulders.

I believe you can make it, too. Just take the first step…Do it NOW!

Want to increase adsense revenue? Then, create site or make blog with rich content. Rich content means that site has many web pages that focuses on a particular niche topic like baby names, dog care, birthday party, online business, home business, work at home moms and many more.

Benefits of Having Rich Content

• Readers stay in your web site or blog for a longer time, reading and navigating through your web pages.
• More Google ads will be shown to them that will attract them to click.
• Search engines love your site to be indexed and offered to its users.
• Since most of the readers cannot read or check out all of your site contents or articles, they will likely come back.
• Your visitors will likely subscribe to your feed or newsletter to check any updates on your site. They will even love to share your site to other people.
• Other sites or blog will love to link to your site as a great resource for their visitors.
• Your site will most likely rank prominently in search engine listing for the relevant keywords.

How to Create Site With Rich Content

• Write short articles so that someone can read them in about 5 minutes but with minimum of 300 words.
• Write a minimum of 30 informative articles centered around a particular theme.
• Categorize your articles or content. Break up your articles into 5 sub-topics and write or post at least 5 articles into each sub-topic. With this strategy, your site will have a total of 31 articles or posts. One article for your main page or homepage, 5 articles as main sub-topics and another 25 articles under the sub-topics, i.e. 5 articles for each sub-topic. This will also help you develop articles or contents for your site or blog.

Making money online is pursued on the right direction with right strategies to succeed. Now, here are the 5 more things you need to know and remember:

1. Make A Plan

In every undertaking, making a plan is indespensable. Here are the important things you need to plan:

• Layout of Your Blog or Web Site. Using a paper or spreadsheets or word processor, draw the outline of your blog or web site. Make it neat and simple for the visitors or readers to navigate your content. Highlight your best blog articles or your best ideas.
• Flow of your content. Present your content in sequence that flows smoothly. Never confuse your visitors or readers as they can easily click away from your blog or site. Remember, they are looking for solutions not for confusions. Present money making ads or links that are related to your content.
• Working Time For Your Blog or Web Site. Allocate a specific amount of time for building or updating your blog or web site, especially if it is just a part-time. So that you can make use of your time effectively. For example, give at least 2 hours every day, around 6-8 pm. Choose the time you will be comfortable.

2. Offer New Things or Innovations

Most people are very much interested in new things, especially those who are exposed to internet. They are excited to see innovations not more of the same things they normally see on the net. They love to read new ideas, new information or new approaches.

3. Present Popular Ideas In Clearer And Simpler Way

Yes, this could be more of the same but in clearer and simpler way. You should show own unique style, clearer and simpler to understand. Make your ideas easy to understand, even by a grader.

4. Research and Learn

Keep on researching and learning. Don’t accept that you know everything. Visit other popular blogs or sites. Learn from them and share your ideas with them by posting your comments. Encourage yourself to learn new technologies and share it to your readers or visitors. Keep yourself rolling.

5. Be Patient To Succeed

Success is not achieved in minutes, hours or days. It depends on the time and effort you are investing for your blog or site. There’s no such thing as get-rich-quick schemes, only get-rich-quick scams. If you insist on earning easy money without thinking, you play online bingo or play online slot machine. If you are lucky, you may win the major jackpot prizes of thousands of dollars. Anyway, there’s nothing wrong to try. Who knows, maybe today is your lucky day.

But if you really want a long-term online income, then make your own site or blog. Establish your online presence on a right way. Take your time, give your best shot - your best ideas to help your visitors or readers who are looking for solutions or quality information on the net.

In few weeks or months, you will see yourself making big money online. You are working at your home, with your family and at your own time. Few more months or years, you will be buying your dream home and your dream car. You will be living your dream life.

Remember these things and you will be on-track to success of making money online. Set yourself on fire with burning desire to succeed and you will surely succeed. Say NO to alibis. Say NO to procrastinations. Do it NOW.

Now, you can begin to make money online. Just believe in yourself and you will succeed.
