Some Stuff I Learned Today About Site-targeting Adsense
Here are just some quick lessons I learned. Probably old hat to most.
- Stay away from social networking sites
- Stay away from celebrity gossip sites
- Avoid high traffic sites without a well-matched audience
- Don’t hesitate to add low traffic sites
Xanga, MySpace, and hollywood rumor sites do nothing other than hike up your adsense bill for low-quality traffic even if you keep it to the bare minimum. They might give you lots of impressions but don’t expect any readers from the traffic that ends up on your blog.
