Do google's recent adwords changes affect us?

Finally, the nichemonkey has returned to his blog.

And today, the nichemonkey will expand a little on the turmoil currently gripping the adwords / adsense industry and explain why it doesn't affect YOU. But first - the niche of the day!

rocky dvd

with a www.nicheTaxi.com nichefactor above 35%, and over 12000 searches a month, this little beauty should be easy for you hominid jabronis to exploit. Even if you hate Sly Stallone and his surgically enhanced tits.

Right, time for the nichemonkey to explain about google's latest trick.

Essentially, the big G is trying to stop 'affiliate arbitrage'. This means people who buy adwords on google for products they don't own, sending the traffic to a page covered in adsense, or affiliate links. As long as the average cost of a click on google is less than the average click revenue these folks earn from their spam pages, they make money.

Google has decided to kill these parasites (:-) off by hiking thier minium bids, sometimes to as high as $10 a click. Does it affect niche site builders like us?

NO

We don't buy adwords. We MAKE money from Adsense. The people hit by google's change are most likely pro-web dudes, savvy in ways of milking the web. They will probably not be advertising on the 'content network' anyway, so we can't get our slimy little hands on their ad budgets anyway. So no worries! Keep making hay while the strudel shines, little humans!

Metawebs revealed!

Finally, the nicheMonkey has returned to his blog.

With an interesting 'find' from out there on the web for all you hungry hominid niche builders. But fisrt, the niche of the day.

flight to san juan

this little beauty has a www.nichetaxi.com nichefactor of over 150%, over 21000 searches a month (multiply by 4 to include all search engines!) and loads of related keywords. Knock up a site fast with your free www.nichemillions.com account and watch the dollars come by fast!

Right. Back to metawebs. As you know, the nicheMonkey used to belong to metawebs, until he realized that he could get the same shit for free at www.nichemillions.com. Actually, BETTER shit. You can probably guess what his opinion of 'Nathan Anderson, SEO dude" is. Newbie raping son-of-a-bitch. HOWEVER, its encouraging to realize that the nicheMonkey is not alone on this. Apart from numerous slappings in almost every SEO forum for his cruel and cunning rip off of beginners hoping to make a little coin, Nathan 'Newbie Scammer' Anderson is now the target of his very own website - www.metawebs.net.

Here's a cut and paste from the site in case good ol' dude Nathan decides to call in the lawyers (again). And the nicheMonkey quotes:-

METAWEBS - A CROCK OF SHIT?

Lets get one thing straight - metawebs, good as it is, isn't worth $15,000. There is no way you could make money using metawebs with THAT ball and chain around your neck. But the idea is sound - generate lots of niche adsense sites and watch the income roll in. So how to get round the metawebs ludicrous price tag problem? Easy. www.nichemillions.com is a FREE metawebs clone. It does essentially the same job as metawebs, but leaves NO footprints for the search engines to find.

Footprints are probably the bane of every metawebs user's life. If a search engine identifies a site as a 'spam' site, it can then search thru its data base for 'similar' sites, and ban them all. Metawebs sites are fairly easy to identify - here's one right here.

http://www.forextrading4beginners.com/

If you look at the source code, you can probably see tons of hooks that a search engine could grab onto and use to 'footprint' all metawebs sites and ban them instantly. Unlike metawebs, the free metawebs clone from www.nichemillions.com has a zero sized footprint, so there is no such metawebs footprint problem. A www.nichemillions.com wouldn't be visible in this way.

Why would anyone pay $15,000 for metawebs when there is a free metawebs clone already available? No idea. Metawebs DOES generate money - it's just that with a $15,000 price tag, and a $500 monthly subscription, you can't make a PROFIT - all of it goes to the metawebs owner, self-agrandising 'SEO Dude' Nathan Anderson.

Are there any other alternatives to metawebs? Yes, lots. And they all are cheaper and do a better job (leave smaller footprints). Which is best? Obviously, www.nichemillions.com. It's FREE, and has a zero sized footprint, unlike Nathan Anderson's clunky old metawebs product, which is regularly criticized in forums for having such a gigantic easily traceable footprint.

So if you want to make money from adsense niche websites should you use metawebs? NO! Of course not! Sign up for the free metawebs clone www.nichemillions.com now - it's free, 5 times as fast as metawebs, and far easier to use!

Get a free backlink from a PR 9 site

Finally, the nicheMonkey has come back to his blog.

And today, the nicheMonkey intends to show you jabroni scum how to get a free PR9 backlink from one of the world's most important sites. But first - the niche of the day!

chess computer game

This tasty little niche has a www.nicheTaxi.com nichefactor of almost 250% - yes, you read that right, TWO HUNDRED AND FIFTY PERCENT. It gets about 2.5k searches a month, so quick - head over to www.nicheMillions.com and slap it up now.

Anyway, back to the topic of today's post. As the nicheMonkey has repeatedly tried to drum into your thick skulls, once you have created a niche site, you need to get it noticed by the search engines. If you have chosen a niche wisely (such as any niche recommended by the nicheMonkey in his blog), the onpage factors will then cause the search engines to push your niche website for you very strongly, and earn you oodles of adsense money so you can, like the nicheMonkey, sit around on your hairy botox and scratch your strudel all day.

If you don't perform this essential step, you'll earn nada zero zilch nothing nowt from it, no matter how great it is.

One of the best ways to get the attention of the search engines is to get 'backlinks' from other sites. The more important these other sites are, the more seriously the search engines will take your little niche, and the more adsense clicks you will get.

One of the most important sites in the world is ebay. But how on earth can you persuade a site as big and hairy as ebay to give your spammy little 'anti-balness-in-new-brigton' niche site a link back? Easy.

1. Open an account at ebay.
2. Put your niche site files up for sale with a ridiculous price tag, say 10p. Make it as unappealing as possible. Use the theme of the niche as your auction title.
3. Make sure you describe the site using it's theme, and include links to it in the sales patter.

That's it. The site files won't sell, obviously, so you will lose you 15p insertion fee, but won't be charged anything else. In return, you WILL get a free backlink from a monster of a site that will boost the rankings of your little niche baby. Hell, you might even get some real traffic. Beware you make it clear that you are not selling the domain name or hosting, just the nichemillions - generated site files, which are valuless to anyone except you! If anyone is dumb enough to buy them, ship them as PHP source code in an email and take the money then simply regenerate the site!

Creating subdomains for your niche sites

Finally, the nicheMonkey has returned to his blog.

And before all you jabronis start squealing 'where have you been', the nicheMonkey would like to point out that he has some interesting information for you about the art of using subdomains to host your niche adsense websites. But first, the niche of the day!

wedding reception idea

with a www.nichetaxi.com nichefactor of over 55% and in excess of 5242 searches a month, this plain jane of a niche can actually make you good money. Throw up a site fast using your www.nichemillions.com account and watch the moulah accumulate!

Anywhat, the nicheMonkey will now explain the good and bad points of subdomains for those cheapskate jabronis among you who resent even paying $9 for a 'real' domain.

What is a subdomain? In essence, anything 'above' the domain name. For example, if you own the domain 'strudel.com' then 'www.strudel.com' is a subdomain, 'mail.strudel.com' is a subdomain, and 'mysweatyjockstrap.strudel.com' is a subdomain.

Why are subdomains important? Because search engines treat them almost as seriously as the top level domain they are attached to. To the mighty Google, mysweatyjockstrap.strudel.com is potentially as important as www.strudel.com. Combined with this revelation is the fact that most decent hosting packages (including the nicheMonkey's Fave Hosting) allow you to create as many 'subbies' as you like, at no extra charge.

So lets evaluate the pros and cons of subdomain, jabronis.

FOR
* Subdomains are free. You can add thousands at no extra charge.
* You can get the exact string you want as a name, because you own the domain. You don't need to waste hours trying to find a vaguely suitable .com name.
* Because they are free, you don't need to track them. It makes no difference whether they 'perform' or not.

AGAINST
* Search engines may not like subbies as much as the standard www top level domain.
* You potentially expose a big bunch of your niches to enemy action. If you have a zero footprint system (like nichemillions.com for example), you just 'footprinted' yourself. Search engines can then ban an entire tranche of your sites in one go.

So there you have it, little humanoid waste bits. The choice, as they say, is yours. And for now,

How much money can I make with Adsense niche sites?

Finally, the nicheMonkey has returned to his blog.

The answer to the title of this post is 'not as much as the nicheMonkey'. More sensible answers, of course, must wait till after the niche of the day!

online computer course

While the nicheMonkey understands that a lot of you jabronis may very well need an online computer course, it doesn't change the fact that this niche has over 13,000 searches per month and a www.nichetaxi.com niche factor of over 73% making it a must-have in ANY niche hunter's pocket book.

Whatever. Back to the topic of the post - how much coin can you generate with simple no-maintenance instant niche adsense sites. Answer? Less than you might think OR more than you can imagine.

The nicheMonkey will try to explain to you poor little humans what that cunningly crafted phrase means, although seeing as most of you jabroni-types keep your brains in your strudel, he is probably wasting his time, and all you really want to hear is 'lots!'.

There are no guarantees in this business, and there is no reasoning with the mighty Google or lesser engines of search. Some of your niche adsense sites they will LOVE, some they will HATE. The ones they love will make some cash. The others will sit there sadly, like the spotty kid at the school disco, doing the niche equivalent of clutching a warm Coke and smiling desperately.

The ones that do make money, make it in direct proportion to (gasp! secrets! Not!) the amount of traffic they get, multiplied by the 'Click thru Rate' multiplied by the average 'Cost Per Click'.

The cost per click (or 'CPC' if you are some kind of jabroni-technonerdling) is the amount you get paid every time a surfer clicks on an adsense link. Advertisers set these amounts, and as we showed you last time, they can go way up into the multiple dollar range as they compete with rival advertisers on the Google network for 'top dog' slot in the ad listings. Hard to believe, isn't it, that anyone would pay YOU $10 for a single click thru to their site? Still, your job is to part these fools from their coin, and fast, because who knows how long this free money will last!

CPC allows you to calculate the 'CPM' which is adspeak for 'cost per thousand'. This is an equivalent figure to the old 'banner' days, when advertisers paid by the page impression. Strangely, calculating this figure will make you dance with joy, because adsense typically allows you to generate effective CPM rates not seen since the boom days of the late 90's.

Google will, of course, extract commission before paying you, and despite what you may have read on other lesser blogs, the nicheMonkey can reveal that it averages out at about 40% of the take for you. In other words, of the advertiser gets charged $100 by Google, you get $40 ish and change. If you have a particularly big site, doing multiple tens of thousands of pages a day, the mighty Google are prepared to negotiate a better rate with you, although seeing as all your sites will be disposable spammy niche sites, don't expect to ever see this happen to you.

The 'click thru rate' (or 'CTR) is how often someone clicks a google adsense ad on your site as a percentage of the number of page loads. For example, if you show a page 100 times, and an ad is clicked only once, your CTR is 1%. Less than one percent is normal. Over 2 percent is good. Over 5 percent is fantastic. Over 10 percent is suspicious, and will probably lead to you getting investigated by google.

So there you have it. Every page you display to a surfer has a chance of getting a click on an ad, which will have a value in hard cash to you. More traffic, better CTR and choosing ads with high paying values (though not TOO high!) mean more money for you. The nicheMonkey is personally aware of friends who have standard www.nicheMillions.com niche sites that do upwards of $50 a day EACH, although this is rare, and you should be happy with $2 or $3 per site per day. Still, knock out 200 of them, and woof! Big bucks! (or $600 a day to be precise :-)

Next time, we will probably have a look at subdomains versus domains, although of course, the nicheMonkey makes no promises to jabroni bottom-feeders.

High Paying Keyword Secrets

Finally, the nicheMonkey has returned to his blog.

And today the nicheMonkey would like to share with you strudel-scratching jabronis a short but useful tip regarding high paying keywords.

But first, roll the jungle drums, because it's niche of the day time!

advance cash online

This financially-themed keyphrase enjoys almost 18,000 searches a month, and a www.nichetaxi.com nichefactor of almost 50%, which is amazingly high for such a short cash-related topic.

Back to business. No doubt, as you busy little humans knock out niche site after niche site using your free www.nichemillions.com account, you sometime wonder whether advertising sponsors for 'crepe double gusset flannel underwear' really do spend any serious coin on your clicks.

The answer, of course, is usually no. Twenty cents here, 40 cents there, which is why you are poor, and the nicheMonkey is loaded. Because the nicheMonkey has a little secret way of finding high paying keyword phrases in order start his niche hunt. Once again, it's a feature on the www.nichetaxi.com website, so it's free. You can get it at nichetaxi.com high paying keywords because it's not generally available, although it probably will have to be after this post!

What you get when you go there is a single random high paying keyword selected magically from a regularly updated list of HUNDREDS of such beauties. Some of these words pay over $40 a CLICK!

Will any of them make a good niche? Of course not. You need to drill down to find a related keyphrase that 'Cabbie' can recommend . Still, it's an easy starting point, and if you are totally stuck for a niche idea of some sort, the nicheMonkey recommends you try it pronto. Now, if you will excuse him, the nicheMonkey has some mangos requiring his personal attention.

Get your niche site indexed FAST!

Finally, the nicheMonkey has returned to his blog.

As the title of this post suggest, the nicheMonkey is about to reveal to you jabronis a sneaky way to get your new niche site indexed by Google, MSN, Yahooooo et al real fast. But first - the niche of the day!

salon los angeles

When the nicheMonkey visits his pad in LA (Rodeo Drive, Bev Hills of course!) he likes to get a bit of a strudel-pamper from those highly trained and tragically underpaid salon hoochies. Which is interesting, because this niche gets over 15,000 searches a month and has a www.nichetaxi.com nichefactor of over 80%. You can use your www.nichemillions.com account to create a niche site for it in about 30 seconds. Expected revenue after 3 months? $100 a month, give or take.

Right, back to getting indexed fast. This sneaky trick has been around for a while but still works. Essentially, your site will get indexed fast if there is a link to it from a 'proper' site - preferably one with a high PR (if you don't know what PR is, the nicheMonkey thinks you are REALLY in the wrong game!). But how do you persuade a high PR site to link to your spammy little niche puppy?

Easy. Go to www.craigslist.com and add yourself a little classified ad. They are free, and as long as you use a real email account (to verify the ad) and mention San Fran in the copy a couple of times, it should run.

Craigslist.com is way high PR and gets indexed every day. Your free ad will run for 7 days, which should be enough to get google to notice and come-a-crawling.

Et voila. Indexia.
