How to get Search engine traffic:

Major sources of traffic to many websites are search engines.If your website is ranked well in search engines, you are going to get good traffic.The engines which will bring surge of traffic are Google, Yahoo and MSN.
The only way to get the good pageranks in search engines is to keep writing original, attractive and fresh articles.More you write, better will be the results.
The articles you write must be reader-friendly.After writing any new article, make sure you read it once before logging out.It is as important as to write an article.Read it from the point of view of reader, and you will suggest yourself a few changes.

What should I write?
1.Write on current issues.
2.Write the articles such that they will draw interest even after 10 years.

I don't have time to write.What should I do?
Some of us may face this problem due to tight office schedule, overtime job, study etc.You can hire someone to write for you.There are a few websites that offer you articles for a few dollars.
But I would suggest you something different.
Try to take out some time, say 15-20 minutes everyday, from your busy schedule.Just think on something different which is related to the topic of your site.Once you start thinking, you can write.If you write 2 good articles, they are sufficient to keep the readers interested in your site.

Adsense + Kontera: Bring extra income:

Few months ago, Kontera was being served to the websites getting more than 5,00,000 hits per month.But, because they have now lowered the bar, and are allowing everyone to join, it is great opportunity for many publishers to earn extra.(Read more ....)

This combination works best for the websites getting moderate traffic.The Kontera ads do not violate the adsense TOS because they are totally different from the adsense ads.The adsense ads will surely bring more income but the Kontera ads will bring extra revenue.The Kontera ads return good results in terms of CTR but the CPC (Cost Per Click) is low.Some webmasters do get good CPC with Kontera but they are few in number.Generally, going through the earnings of the webmasters, it is found that out of the total earnings,
Income through Adsense--88-92%
Income through Kontera--8-12%

(The Kontera ads are in-text ads and hence they do not affect the design of your website.You can try the different coloured ads offered by them.The colour should be chosen such that it will not affect the overall look of your content.)

Simple "tricks" to boost your adsense earnings:

1.Blend the ads with background:
This trick is old and very well-known (hence can not be called a "trick" now).It is important to increase your CTR to boost your earnings.This "trick" will surely help you in doing so.
The red arrow points towards one such ad.The background of the ad is perfectly similar to that of the website.The colour of the Title is same as that of the colour of titles on page.
If you are still using the ads which look like "ads", just try the blending of ads.You will surely see the increase in the CTR.

2.Perfect ad placement:
The 1st "trick" works good if you have placed the ads correctly.
The ads placed on the top of webpage return good results.The ads should be placed near the content and they should look like a part of it.
The following ad formats have performed well in the past
-->336×280 large rectangle
-->300×250 inline rectangle
-->160×600 wide skyscraper

3.Getting targeted ads:
If the ads are relevant to the topic of your primary content, the visitor is going to be attracted towards them.If these ads are placed near to the content, there is a high probability of getting clicks.
To get targeted and relevant ads always concentrate on the keywords which will correctly describe your article.If these words are used often in the article, you will get the ads which are related with those words.
What to do if I am not getting relevant ads?

4.Build steady traffic:
Building traffic is very very important because it will ultimately turn your website into "dollar machine".With very strong traffic, you can earn millions using adsense.Traffic from search engines, forums/groups, social networking websites is targeted traffic.The visitors coming from them are really interested in your website.
