Increase AdSense Earnings 600 Percent
March is officially over now and April is under way…sorry no April fools joke here. Now getting back to the making money online, March was our most successful month in the terms of AdSense profits. I know that many of you have read too many times that it only takes a minor adjustment to increase Google AdSense by 600% or even more.
Well this was the exact case in with our site. I had been reading and listening to so many others when it came to recommendations as to what AdSense ad is the most profitable and for many they are placing the ad within the post itself. I had been using this method for many months without success and basically I was just under the impression that our site was not receiving enough page impressions to reach higher profits.
Starting in March I decided to make a few changes on our site; I figured out how to ad background color to the side bar section and I changed our AdSense ad size to the (160 x 600 side bar) (300×250 side bar). The results: average 600% increase in daily profits with a round about estimates of CTR 3.25% and eCPM $5.42. The morale of the story here is do not listen to what works best for these “A List†bloggers keep testing your site and then test some more because what’s successful for them will not always be the case for your site.
MARCH 2008 BLOG REVENUE REPORT:
Private Ad Sales: $2050.00
Google AdSense: $2193.54
Affiliate Sales: $124.47
Site Reviews: $525
Text Link Ads: $542.45
Total Revenue: $5435.46
Blog traffic for March was 165,926 page views from 75,421 unique visitors, according to Google Analytics. The operating costs for the month of March came in at exactly $11.03. The breakdown of operating costs: Hosting $3.33, Café Press $6.95, Domain $0.75. The Café Press online store is the biggest monthly expense and it’s not a money maker but I keep it open for when readers feel inclined to purchase some JKD souvenirs.
Many of the regular readers have noticed a drastic decline in the amount of posting that the “GeekTalk†section actually gets updated and I wanted to note on this while I’m at it. In the beginning of March I’ve moved my efforts and time towards Affiliate marketing mostly due in part that the success of the “GeekTalk section is near to none existent, only accounting for 10% of revenue and traffic for JKD and an astonishing 90% comes from celebrity/fashion related searches.
Readers do you want more posting? Then I would like to see an increase in the stats of “GeekTalk†so start linking to the information that you’ve found useful and spreading the word about this site.

Is that this much easy??? i am a bit confused. I have to give some try with that.
$5500 from blog?????? You don’t have to work do you.
Those are great figures on your traffic stats. Thanks for sharing with us
I would hate to see you stop posting. I am impressed with the money you have made. I am going to start a side Blog for fun and money
I told shoemoney that I found his blog because of you! but I am not sure if he cared since he well you know. Anyways congratulations and hope all is well with the fam and work…
I remember having a similar moment after switching up the AdSense on a particular personal blog. It was a combination of “Oh my god this is awesome” and “I am so stupid for not trying this sooner”, but from then on I was able to do similar with all my blogs.
It seems like there are a few major hurdles in earning money online, and when you pass one it’s an incredibly cool feeling.
Congrats! Those are some seriously impressive statistics.
Congrats. Very nice change.
Wow, your earning figure really inspire me
“Private Ad Sales: $2050.00
Google AdSense: $2193.54″, sometime I just don’t believe I can make such amount from ad space…
Please accept my congratulations. Good showing by any yard stick. Yes, I would like to see many posts and what I need to do to increase stats in geektalk, I shall.
You’re doing some good numbers.. I think (however) you’d be doing better if you put a medium rectangle ad inside with your text (perhaps float it to the left)… I’ve always done best with this setup.
Best of luck!
I think adsense placement, etc. is all about trial and error. I’ve tried the “recommended” adsense placements on my sites and have found that it doesn’t necessarily work for all. Congrats. Your revenue statement has encouraged me to get more on the ball with blogging.
Congrats. You are getting a higher percentage out of adsense than I thought was possible. I find it funny that in the comments on this post there are suggestions on ways to tweak what you have done. Did these people not see the CTR of 3.25%?
Wow, that’s really impressive. Congrats.
75,000 unique visitors in a month is an awesome achievement, no wonder you can afford to keep going on those swanky trips to London
Are your text-link ads no-follow?
I’m astonished at the profits people are making from blogging. It’s really pretty amazing. I’ve got to get my ass in gear before everyone finds out about this.
wow!! that much! real inspiration. I’ve been trying to get my blogs to generate anything! I need to take a harder look at adsense. thanks for the info.
Congratulations, what an achievement!
Those are incredible stats.
It just goes to show the need for always tweaking & testing, and how sometimes it really does pay to do the opposite of what everybody else is telling you to do.
Great job!

$5435.46 is really a great amount for 1 blog. I am now trying to accomplish that too but it sure its hard. You really have to put many times and effort to do that and it took maybe months or even years.
doing is much different than writing, i had never seen any blog which earns around 5k / month.
I’m new to your site. What was the old adsense layout?
Also, I completely agree on not taking A-list bloggers word for granted: most of them usually don’t know what they talk about – really.
wow..that is very impressive…..
I can’t picture this, I would be happy with 1/10 of that.
Mia
Our old layout consisted of placing adsense ads within the posts. The click through rate and eCPM was much lower and not the mention I had always felt the ads got in the way of the actual article. The 160 x 600 is out of the way and daily profits are great.
I’m really confused, how can one get such a big adsense earnings? The matter has to be thought over. Anyways when you have made such earnings it is good for you. And I would definetely congrat you for that.
Yes I am also very impressed. I wonder how many visitors you get every month to achieve such a large amount of clicks?
Those are some impressive earnings. I’m surprised your adsense are so high compared to your private ad sales.
Great improvement! i agree with you that experimentation with your placement and colors will make a change.
I recently changed from 3 different ad units to only 1 on one of my sites and ahve seen a huge increase in my CTR and PPC. It just takes time and messing around with it to find what works best.
No Wonder having 165,926 page views from 75,421 unique visitors
Not bad!
All around very good numbers. Congrats! Just a little change in color schemes and Google Ad size. If the blog content is good, sometimes a slight change in look is all that’s needed! Let’s hope it sustains.
That is some drastic, FANTASTIC improvements man. Congrats. I find that I tend to settle for what I’ve done in the past and think what a pain it is to move things around. But when you actually make changes for the better you realize it was not so difficult and you could not image having not taken those steps.
I envy you sir. Great work!
Nice increase! That is one big jump in earnings, congrats.
You’re living the life.
Very impressive. Thanks for sharing the adsense and statistics info.
Great post thanks for sharing your experience. Getting visitors is the key factor..
Hi! This is a very interesting post!
I am a Google Certified Advertising Professional and a lot of clients are trying to increase their income on the Google Adsense network. You are now bookmarked!
Cool, although adsense has been down, you have been able to make good earnings
$5435.46 Wow am really impressed, Great job!
Getting so much Adsense revenue for this kind of blog is a great success. I guess you have lots of traffic from SE.
Congratulations! I’m impressed at the profits you are making from blogging. Thanks for sharing with us.
I will be back soon.
Best wishes
You are doing pretty darn good with adsense. I guess I better get back to the drawing board to catch up!
$3.33 hosting? Who is your host???
@ Marguerite Jasmin
Hosting was not as expensive as you think nowadays, try to search in google and you will find such hosting company. For example namecheap charge only $2.91 for their basic hosting
Wow,
am breathless. Its really making money online.
thanx for sharing
jennie
Thank you for the information pelarge.
To make money online is a large percentage of today’s population goal in the recession that is upon us. Small business owners and most major companies are looking to make money online too. With webhosting ranging from 6.95 to 20 dollars per month start up cost and monthly fees are far less than running a brick and mortar business.
Amazing stats. It is truely inspirational to read about people who are so successful online.
I agree with what you say that you should never follow suit. Sure, use the experience of others to your advantage but what works for them will not always work for you!
Cheers
John
With my Adsense sites I always spend a lot of time working out what will give me the best CTR. Some sites do a lot better than others even although I’ve used the exact same theme. Just keep working at it.
I know that paid optimization is essential part of organic optimization. By it, we can increase our chance to get better result in SEs as well as conversion rate.
You have mentioned nice information about paid campaign.
It will be insisted users to contact you.
Awesome just awesome Jason, adsense earning has shot up for you.
Way to go. Good to see that you are testing and tracking… I’m sure with a few more tweaks you will increase your earnings even more… although your clickthrough rate is already very impressive.
Congratulation with the great revenue, I also trying build my blog bigger and I hope I can accomplish something like this.
That’s a lot. How to make that? Any advices?
i really hope i can achieve that target one day…
$5000 from your blog thats really good going there
I envy you for that. Im just starting my luck with adsense.
OMG. I never thought you could earn that much on AdSense
Wow! very good. It’s awesome.
It’s so nice. I was amazed.
Wow! it’s awesome. I wish I will be like that.
wow. most impressive
There is a ton of money to be made in adsense — and yes, you are completely correct. I’ve personally done the same minor changes regarding ad sizes… as well as a few of my friends — same results, always a huge jump in earnings!
The earning of adsense can be increased but is it possible to do up to 600%??? I am really interested about this.
@.@ So much money from AdSense. How cool is that. If I could get a steady income from AdSense I don’t have to work anymore =P Woohoo..
That is really inspiring, I put my adsense back because of your article.
The earning looks great, and I know the effort would also have been great. Congrats.
Sounds good to me.
So you made all that money with only one skycrapper on the right side? Impressive, I must say!
Congrats!
I wish I could earn the same on some of my high traffic blogs, but I still can’t find the way.
Thanks for your imput
You must be indeed a clever businessman. If not, you must be having a clever brain to make money. I wish I can be like you too, having a good earning.
How did the modification of the background color help? Was it just that it drew more attention to the ads? I’d be interested to hear your thoughts on that, and if it was just experimentation on your part, or based on some research from somewhere else.
Thanks for the info.
Adsence is the thing which is making a lot of people millionaire and making them huge money bags. This technology has made people earn money through advertising and have helped people to earn a good livelihood.
That’s amazing stats! Definitely going to put a ad bar on the side of my site now I think
Congrats on the profitable adjustment! What I’ve always heard is that Adsense is a beast to conquer, but it looks like you’ve done well. Sometimes it’s the “fine tuning” that makes all the difference, and not always the large, drastic change.
Wow!!! Congratulations on your success!!!
Any pointers you can give to the rest of us? Do you do this full time, or is it just a hobby like many bloggers out there?
Anyways, keep up the good work!!!
Impressive money amount for just a single blog. I admit that I can’t approach to you even having a farm of websites and blogs. Excellent work!
Congratulations to you on your big earnings:) More success!
Its surprising how simple changes can impact your clickthrough rates.
Sometimes I’ve found just changing the ad headline color to match the same color as my post headlines can dramatically increase the clicks.
The less you make it look like an ad, and more like a proper link, the more clicks you seem to get.
I would absolutely love to get 5,000 a month. Thats good money.
Wow thats nice income youre having there. Congrats and i would like to get that much aswell
Great earnings man! I wish I could earn like you…
Can earn so much on blogs? I wish I can be like you too! Keep this up!
Wow that is pretty impressive. 5000 dollars from blogging. I wish i could stuff like that lol.
My congratulations man!! Good work!
Your transparency has to be applauded. That’s a nice monthly revenue. Experimenting is key with Adsense, you may think you’re doing alright, then make a small change and boom, increased earnings. It’s one of those things…
You should skip the middle man (Adsense) and try affiliate marketing. You might earn much more selling products directly.
This should prove to bloggers that they need to be testing their layouts and such. What works on one blog may not work on another. There are many little variables such as font size and color that can have a huge impact on your bottom line.
Those are some impressive numbers indeed! I, too, have been testing with different adsense ads and have found that the 300×250 works the best for my site. Cheers!!
I think with persistence and dedication, anyone can achieve as high of numbers (if not more) depending on the niche they target and how much work they’re willing to put in. No one said it was easy but it IS doable!
oh my god ,, $5435.46. thats such big money in my country. With that earning every month, thats makes you dont need to work. And maybe you can invested in something else.
You’re Ads master !!
Nice numbers!
I might have to switch up my blogger template to try and get some larger ad space…
Simple math shows you get about 2500 uniques a day. Very impressive. I don’t know if it will be possible to draw that many daily viewers to my niche of a niche knitting site. Currently I’m at about 50 per sitemeter, but I’ve only been on WordPress for two months. My previous blog via iWeb had horrible SEO.
I would be flying high if I could earn your monthly ad revenue. It would pay my kids monthly college bills.
Thanks for sharing so much personal money details. It gives those of us just starting to monetize some tangible goals to reach.
Congratulations. Your website is great and you deserve to be properly compensated. Keep up the good work.
You showed us great results. But you should understand that it doesn’t possible to increase adsense profit on 600% every month. Anyway this is very very nice.
Keep to increase your earnings
Seeing your results can bring us all some hope for the future. I’ve been designing a lot of mini sites lately that are focused on very small niches but a reasonable amount of daily targetted visitors. I do fairly well on my primary domains but I decided that if I also have 100 mini sites that are all SEO’d properly and generate an average of $25.00 a month, that still places me in a good position extra earning wise.
And what better support 100 mini sites or 1 big project?
Just wanted to say good going on your $5,000 dollar profit. I hope that you double that within the next 6 months. I am impressed and hope you rise even more so than ever.
I keep tweaking my adsense also. A couple of my sites get over 20% CTR but I have a few others, which all look very similar and they get well below 10% CTR. I think that a lot of it is down to the subject been search and whether a large amount of research is required to get the answer the surfer is looking for.
Wow! Very inspirational, thanks!
thats a lot of visitors. looks like your site has been around a year and a half?
i’d be curious to see what your link building and marketing strategies were for building traffic
Off course you don’t need a day job.. do u ?
some serious statistics.. keep it up!
Some impressive figures out there. How did you manage to hit that mark so soon?
Anyway, good luck with your blog and hopefully, it hits higher mark soon. Perhaps the 10,000$/month mark?
What is your next target, man?!! Awesome figures. Good luck.

Congratulations to your success in business.
Really 5k on adsense? Yes I’ve read this before and wish I had the key to success. I run severall small Australian Tourism websites and am lucky to take $100 per month. I’ll keep searching, but I this for me it’s about volume of traffic. Any idea of your traffic?
This looks to have been quite a successful time period. It is quite reasonable that you checked at the end of this post to see whether viewers/readers would want more posts, so as to gauge your future posting regularity.
That’s great, I never thought about Increase AdSense Earnings 600 Percent like that before.
I found this post, from Google and was intrigued with the heading. Good job on the $5K. It all comes down to design and content – obviously you have done all the right things. Really impressive.
Wow, those are some huge stats.
I was wondering how does reducing the size of an AdSense ad impact traffic? What is the logic that comes into effect here?
wow… that’s amazing..
i hope i can get more from adsense..
i think i should change the lay out, too..
Very inspirational, thanks
WOW!! That wonderfull, i Hope I can do like that..
Congrats again..Well is that earning from 1 blog or multiple blog? If that from 1 blog..that really amazing.
After your blog decrease in PR, is that influence your earning?
These are huge figures.. Anyways very good job done… Congrats and keep earning more..
Finding the optimum adsense ad placement is all about testing, testing, testing. Some people don’t want to go through the trouble, but you’ve just reminded us just how profitable a little work in this area can be. Thanks.
Congratulations to your success in business.
I am very impressed. You have a nice blog here but I didn’t think it was possible to get those figures in ad revenues… Maybe there is a big difference if you write in English as opposed to other languages with a smaller speaker base. You really got me thinking about writing again!
I Just wanted to say good going on your $5,000 dollar profit. Congrats……..
wow you must have some nice paying keywords to make 5 grand.
WOW thats great!!!. Channel Name will help you analize which Adsense Slot that has the best performance. ..Just imagine this,Each time Adsense Ads appears on our site, that will cost Google Adsense Bandwith and other Server Resource…That’s why if I you see CTR under 1% it would be better to remove it…
wow!! that much! real inspiration. I’ve been trying to get my blogs to generate anything! I need to take a harder look at adsense. thanks for the info.
Great numbers man, I really thank you for taking the time to share.
Hey man your article was really interesting and it was very relevant to me!Thanks for answering my questions!I will definitely read more of your posts in the future!
Congratulations! That is a very noteworthy achieve. Just keep building links for your adsense niche sites and your profits will continue to skyrocket!
I have submitted my blog to adsense google, but rejected…
Congrat! I will never can feel like yours
That’s simply great
. I hope i could one day reach those figures.

You have done great! How do you attract the 75,000 visitors to your blog? And $5,000+ is really a good amount of money that a blog can make.
wow, nice improvement, thank you for sharing anyway.
Most successful Google Adsense formats for me are 336 x 280 and 250 x 250 that I use on most of my websites to earn money using Google Adsense widgets
How much SEO (Search Engine Optimization) do you do?
You realy did a fantastic job thanks for sharing.
Seems strange that you walked away from this blog since you were making so much money each month.
How to sell text link ads?
Google Adsense income always seems to increase exponentially when you know what you’re doing. It’s a nice reliable source of income.
I hope I would duplicate your success, even half of it will do!Hope to hear more tips from you captain!
You can duplicate his success with a bit of link building. It can be tedious but it is agreeably worth it.
