Money by showing advertisements on websites

Overview and Purpose

This tutorial describes a way one can make money by adding advertisements on your website. The most important thing is to have a website that gets some amount of visitors. Your site should have a clean and sleek appearance so you can get accepted to these types of programs.

Earnings estimation

The earnings are pretty hard to estimate, because the amount of money you can make depends highly on what your site is about. For example if your site is about mortgages and credit cards you may really earn a lot with adverts, but if your site is gaming related the amount you earn per click is a lot lower. Id say you can earn from 0,5$ -10$ per CPM(Thousand advert impressions).

Getting started

If you already have a website you are basically ready to set off. Just select any of the pay-per-click advertising networks and start showing their adds on your website. Normally showing the adds requires you to add a small code snippet to your html and the whole thing is setup pretty easily. Content based advertising is the best and I suggest that you start with google adsense.

1. Create the account

Goto google adsense and create the account: Google Adsense

2. Add code snippets

Add the code snippets to your website

3. Wait for users to start clicking

Now you just wait for users to start clicking the adds. You should try to optimize the amount of clicks you get by using optimization techniques. Just google: "adsense optimization" to get started.
