Adsense: 6 months to $100 per month

[Henry]

FYI: According to a forum I was reading, the consensus says that it takes 6 months of quality posts to generate an income of $100 per month using Google's Adsense.

It took me about a year to come close

Interesting... In month 5 (Feb 2005), I earned $53.02 from Adsense, and in month 6 (Mar 2005), I earned $114.63 from Adsense.

I have heard this as well. Probably the exception to this as far as it happening faster is you are a blogging maniac like Darrin Rowe from problogger.

I only do a very very small amount of blogging as it is not my focus....I'm up to a whopping $.73 after 1 month. LOL

I haven't been earning like Darren Rowse, but I've learned that for a blog to earn more from Adsense, posting frequently is not just the only way. Blog promotion (forum participation,word of mouth,e-mail lists) can help, too.

It took me 5 months to get my first $100 adsense payment, and only 1 month after that to get another $100. I think that's a good sign.

Henry, I think that with Digg and Reddit you can do it MUCH FASTER. I've made $100 per month on my second month, but that's when I didn't know about Reddit, Fark, Stumbleupon, Digg and others. One day, when I got to be #1 in Reddit and got into Digg's top, I made over $220 in a single day.

Quality content isn't all it takes. You also need to be a good marketer of yourself and your sites.

Yeah. It's definitely something I'm going to look into as far as marketing. My main goal right now until January is to

a) Evolve my writing so it doesn't suck, and
b) Fill my site with quality content so visitors don't come home to an empty site.

I'm pretty new to all of this still so I really love all the advice I've been receiving.

DmitryDavydov: So which article got dugg? I love digg. I was fortunate to join digg during the earlier stages (like I did with these forums). What does that mean? It means I can have the username "Henry".

I started my blog in July and have earned $15 from it so far.

At risk of stating the obvious, Adsense income is dependent on site topic. For example, martial arts advertisers won't pay much for clicks , but digital camera advertisers will.

If you want lots of Adsense income, you need to create a resource that both readers and advertisers value. Creating "quality posts" is not good enough.

It's eerie how accurate that figure is. March was my 5th month and I made $74.46. If I grow at the same rate, I will be over $100 in my 6th month.

Wow, I really need to find some better topics to blog about then, lol. I've been with Adsense since December (maybe?) but I have yet to even earn a full $1. Then again I haven't put a lot of effort into it since I've been back in school.
