Ok in the last post I talked about how and what you can do to make more money with your Google Adsense ads and today I want to talk about what you can do if you’ve already taken all the steps I’ve already laid out in that post and you’re still not pulling in enough revenue from your websites or Blogs that you’ve dedicated to Google Adsense.

Before I talk about what to do, let’s talk about what not to do… One of the things you really don’t want to do is give your readers too many choices. By that I mean you really don’t want to place any other ads on the websites and Blogs that you have Adsense on.

When you decide to place contextual advertising on one of your sites that should be the only form of advertising on your site. You don’t want affiliate ads all over the place on top of your Adsense ads (contextual ads). That’ll just lower your click through rate and reduce your earnings. So when you decide to utilize Adsense in one of your niches… stick to it and use nothing (advertising) else for optimum performance.

If you really want a high click through rate another thing you want to stay away from is really good content… Good, fresh and unique content seem to kill click through rates so be advised. Something you may want to do to counteract this is to display your Adsense ads above your content so that your new visitors have to scroll down through your ads to get to your content… above the fold so to speak.

Ok so now let’s talk about what you can do to increase your earnings on a site that you’ve pretty much dedicated to Adsense.

Here’s what I do. I add newsletter opt-in forms to those pages as well as RSS feed subscription forms. Check out this post here: Increase Your Customer Lifetime Value

That post talks about increasing your customer lifetime value and unfortunately that’s a concept that is usually only talked about in off line business circles but it’s what a lot of internet marketers sorely need to incorporate into their websites.

The concept is really simple… make more money (on average) from each and every single person that visits your site. In order to make that possible, you’re either going to have to contact your site visitors directly or somehow bring them back to your site and that’s where email newsletters and RSS Feed subscriptions come into play.

Email newsletters are a ton of work but they allow you to stay in constant contact with your readers and every time you contact them is an opportunity to sell an affiliate product. Ok so maybe not every time but often enough so you can reap a better reward then you have been right?

RSS feeds are a different animal but the more subscribers you pick up the closer and closer you get to becoming an authority in your niche. The only way I’ve tried to further monetize RSS Feed subscriptions is by weaving in affiliate links into my Blog posts which, by the way, is the best way to get readers to click through to your affiliate ads.

When configuring your Wordpress Blog and your RSS feed you want to make sure you are only sending out excerpts to your readers… remember get them to come back to your site to read the rest of the story. This also helps keep the Black Hat RSS feed scrapers at bay which is nice.

I’ll be the first to admit that I haven’t completely figured out how to further monetize my sites through RSS feed subscriptions but I’ll be damned if I can’t make more money with more and more people coming back to my sites!

In any event, email newsletters will help you extract more money from your readers and that’s how you make more money with Adsense.
