5 Top Secret Techniques To Make Your Adsense Website Stick

By: Alan Cheng

Without a doubt you need traffic to your Adsense website since
your income from Google depends on it.

It's the problem which most people have problems with. If you
can make your visitors stick to your website then the traffic you
create should accumulate - problem solved.

Making that traffic return is the major challenge and one of the
so called "secrets" of build a successful Adsense website.

What is better than having visitors continuing to return to your
website, without any effort on your part? You definitely need to
make your Adsense website sticky and below are my 5 tips to
achieve this.

1. Have good, interesting content. This is the one of the main
reasons why I favour blogs advertising Adsense. You can easily
write content and update it on your website.

It's much easier updating a blog than a website. Unless of
course, your website has a content management system (CMS) like a
blog.

People browse on the internet to read content. So if the
information provided by you is good and it is updated on a
regular basis, the user will bookmark your site and will return.
Even possibly a few times a week to read your content.

2. Having a newsletter subscription or a mini course sign up form
on the front of your website. Once visitors sign up to your form,
they are on your email list.

You can use an autoresponder to follow up with them and also
email to notify them that your content is updated.

Having your visitors go on your email list will remind them of
your existence so that they visit you again. However, you have to
make sure that your mini-course provides good content so they
will read it.

You can see how I do this with my 7 part mini-course by sending a
blank mail to my autoresponder at ne-mini@...

Adsense.

3. Having a forum on your website. With good content you will
attract interested visitors to your website. These visitors love
to share and discuss what they are passionate about.

A forum will act as a regular gathering place for them which
means repeated visits and also increase in Adsense clicks.

4. Announcing upcoming events. In your content, you should always
specify what is coming up in the next few days. Such as updated
report on your particular niche.

This will increase the visitor's awareness of your website and
they will remember to visit your website again sometime in the
future to check out what you mentioned before.

This is a very powerful technique to build repeat visitors and it
only requires a mention of what is coming in the next few days.

5. The last technique to ensure repeat visitors is to have a
schedule of the updates to your website and stick to it. If your
blog advertising Google Adsense is rarely updated, the chances of
the visitor coming back is near zero.

People love reading good content but if they return and find that
your content is the same they will rarely return. The reason is
because they have a lot of other choices. The web is so
clickable, you've got to get their attention.

If you stick to having updates on regular basis such as once in 2
days, then the visitor will return to read the latest on your
website.

This concludes the 5 ways to having a sticky Adsense website. The
best thing is to implement all 5 techniques to your website.
Getting traffic is not an easy thing so make sure the traffic is
your regular customer. A regular customer gives you business
which in this case is Adsense income.
