Rethinking Google Adsense – An SEO Experiment

Recently, I pulled Google Adsense from TheBitBot.Com because our site is migrating to an Adsense monetized site to an affiliate/lead-generation site.

Some think I’m crazy because Adsense has been a great earner for TheBitBot.Com in recent years. So why the change???

Well, there is a problem with Adsense…its a traffic leak, meaning, its specifically designed to take leads away from your page/site.

Any leak in/on your site lessens the chances of that visitor filling out an optin for to join your list or purchasing a product that you are affiliated with.

Google Adsense Revisited

I have been working with Google Adsense too long to just give it up however. I mean, its such an eash way to monetize a website and you get paid if people buy or not…because its CPC.

Google Adsense Is Still Great…For MFA Sites

Truth be told, I have made more money with Google Adsense than with any other internet marketing method. Its just so darn easy to use, and people don’t even have to buy anything for you to get paid.

The reason for this is because Adsense is a PPC advertising platform. This means that advertisers pay publishers for simply sending them traffic. So basically, it a lead generation platform.

The danger with Adsense, however, for many, is the fact that it is indeed easy money.

Ever heard the expression: “Sacrificing Tomorrow’s Dime For Today’s Nickel?” Adsense kinda falls into that category.

A newbie blogger or internet marketer never really realizes this until that one fateful day in their IM career that they realize the importance of a lead…as in “lead generation”.

Adsense Is The Perfect Traffic Syphon

Adsense is a great syphon…of traffic away from your site…that is.

How Many Websites Should An Internet Marketer Have?

If you’re asking that question, then the short answer is "one". You should build and learn how to monetize only one site if you have to ask that question.

If you’re new to the whole IM thing, then it is always a good idea to proceed with more than the usual caution. Why? Simple. Internet marketers are great at upselling, and they can convince you to buy anything in just about any quantity.

The reason I am writing this is because I all too often read stories and threads like [ the one about this guy ]. Take a minute and read through the thread. Its a real eye opener.

Now that the true risks of IM are on the table, the following is a step by step plan I recommend if you’re interested in getting into internet marketing.

Is Google Adsense Holding You Back?

Is Google Adsense Holding You Back?

For the longest time, I loved to build sites with Adsense. Making money with Adsense was so easy. I would simply purchase a domain name, build a site, add some relevant content, slap some Adsense blocks on there and WHAM! make money with easy clicks.

That being said and done, however, I have been doing some heavy split testing as of late and have ultimately come to the conclusion that Adsense blocks on your site actually damages you business long term.

"What?" You ask. "Adsense damages my business?" You say.

Yep. Sure does…depending on your business model that is. Now, if you’re business model is what mine used to be…building small/lean sites monetized ONLY with Adsense blocks, then there is still some money to be made this way, but make no mistake, this avenue of revenue is drying up, at least for MFA sites. (Yeah, I said "MFA sites".)
