Optimization Tip 4: Know your audience and find out who’s clicking on your ads (and who’s not) — and why

You've optimized your ads, advertised to drive traffic to your site, and still no one's clicking. What's wrong?

Optimization Tip 3: Increase earnings with other Adsense features

If you think it's possible to earn thousands of dollars a month from Google Adsense, you're right. A lot of people are already doing it. But if you think Adsense is only about ads, you're wrong. It's possible to increase your income using other Adsense features you probably don't know about.

Referrals

It gets easier once you find out that these products are not only reliable but very useful as well.

Optimization Tip 2: Design the “perfect” ad

Pop quiz, hotshot! What two basic things do you need to earn from Google Adsense?

Content and quality traffic? Correct! You need to have content so that targeted ads will be shown to your users and building traffic is equally important because without visitors, no one's going to click on your ads.
