You are reading MrDefinite.com 2.0 (make money online) entry.
Many are asking how I managed to make those RM423.16 from Adsense. Well, frankly speaking, the amount is not a lot.
Because a lot of bloggers out there are earning way more significant amount than I do, simply because they are versatile (whereby I’m less so) and they pour in a lot of effort in making money online.
To make the amount of money I’m making right now (again it is not a lot, but it is definitely an improvement from before), I have come to realisation that traffic is essential.
No traffic, there will be no conversion whatsoever.
But how to get traffic, you may ask.
As for me, most of my traffic comes from Google search engine, therefore I gotta credit Google for this. A search on the key phrase “make money online” allows you to see that MrDefinite.com is ranking on top of the search engine results page (SERP), which explains why this site has over 300 unique visitors each day.
In order to have a high volume of traffic, the challenge is to push up the ranking of your site to the top of SERP for a certain keyword or keyphrase. But how do we do so?
Like I have mentioned, “make money online” is the main key phrase that MrDefinite.com is adopting in determining the term of which the site is ranked for.
In other words, a lot of relevant sites are needed to give a backlink to MrDefinite.com with the anchor text “make money online“. By relevant sites, it refers to sites that contain or blog on similar topic.
Having a backlink from any website, especially one that is dofollow-enabled, will contribute to what is known as the “link juice”. The more link juice, the easier to beat your competitors for rankings in Google.

To make money from AdSense do you need to sign up specifically for it or does it happen automatically for anyone who has Google and Paypal account, who is submitting articles to those artile sites that run Adsense payments for their authors?

Cool. I have around 40 - 70 traffics per day now after 3-4 months blogging and my adsense is still at the area of USD54 at the moment. Hope to catch bigger traffic soon. -)
Happy to see someone actually succeed in Adsense

Kenneth,
This is a good post. However, there is one theory in which you have that is somewhat flawed. You don\’t need to have backlinks from relevant sites.
This is a SEO myth. So long as the site is in a good neighborhood; in other words, not a known link farm, or as they were called in the old days, FFA site, you can get a link from the site and it will count.
If you want to read more about this, I would suggest you have a look here:

He does a better job of explaining it, than I can.

Thanks for the article.. it’s kinda sad that the search engines say they want to rank you for relevancy when they actually rank you for authority..

@cherry changing
Do you work for the site you mention? lol. There are some myths listed there but I do wonder what authority and research some of this is founded on.
I have proved in my own tests (as many have that I chat to on various forums) that a link will ‘count’ from an unrelated site (so in that respect you are correct) but a link from a related site will count far more. Relevancy is becoming increasingly important in terms of both on-page content and links.

Just how can they determine the relevancy? The search engine surely can’t do that and I don’t think they use human for that job (just imagine surfing millions or more of websites and try to figure out what are they EVERYDAY)

You should consider proper use of keywords. I’ve seen several high paying blogs out there reap the words by just using proper keywords. Even Affiliate marketers use paid tools just to get high paying keywords that generate huge amounts of traffic

Link juice ingredients are the most important to make money with adsense and blogging, but sometimes you need some time to google approve you in order to use the adsense. Thanks for the sharing!

traffic from Malaysia recorded the highest keyword search for make money online. It is still a competitive keyword for me to compete though

I really enjoyed your thoughts here. What’s important for people to remember is that you need good, quality content, backlinks, and a solid social media marketing plan. With all these aspects in place - your community and blog should thrive.

Interesting that page rank is at the bottom. I agree with this but it took me a long while to realise, I used to only aim for links on high PR pages but now I realising this doesn’t really matter as long as you have the right anchor text and the page is relevent.
By Gouri from english on Sep 13, 2009 | Reply
Keyword as anchor text is very important. However, most of us tend to ignore it & concentrate only on the link. You have given it its true place.

Thanks for the post, Link building can be a pain at times.
By Childrens Bedding on Sep 17, 2009 | Reply
I totally agree with you here that traffic is essential.
The more I learn about SEO and how my site’s ranking in the search engines effects the amount of traffic that comes to the site, it’s like magic!
When my search engine ranking goes up, the traffic increases, when it goes down, the traffic decreases. It’s really amazing to see!

With the latest trends in SEO, I don’t think that there’s much difference between do-follow and no-follow. A link is a link- be it do/no follow. One should only focus on gathering good quality links rather than hunting for do-follow links only!
Thanks

Well explained, I got to agree with you that keywords is at the top of the list, but I have seen blogs where they only target the keywords and doesn’t give any meaning to the post. But yours is great! wish you all the best.

Focusing on this single fundamental can take you a long way. It always helps of course if you follow a tried and tested method as well of course.

Good points; there are multiple contributing factors to a successul website, and two of the most important are generating traffic and then converting that traffic.

web 2.0 sites can allow you to promote your sites for free - as you can post content online and then link back to your sites in an effort to build an audience!

Hey, I love the link juice graphic youve got - very cool and accurate too! You must have spent some serious time (or money) on building your links to do well on your target keyword - well done, you deserve to be where youre at! (I just checked and youre at #15 - im using google.com.ar - thats an incredible ranking for over 221 million lisings!)

Definitely the key to making money online is by getting as much traffic as you can because without the traffic you can’t monetize it. I think when it comes to SEO the most important thing is definitely the Links =D
Till then,
