How to make $100 per month on Adsense Ads?

Hello, finally I’m getting a small feeling of motivation in order to explain the method to move quickly to the next level assuming that you’re still stuck at the level where you still don’t get an AdSense payment every month.
Getting paid every month by AdSense is EASY, very EASY.. But there are also a lot of ways to not get paid every month even if you’re “working” hard to get there..

To receive a payment by AdSense at the end of next month you need to have earned $100 during the current month. $100 a month is roughly $3.3 per day. Assuming you have a CTR of 5% and an average CPC of $0.1 you need about 30 clicks or 600 ad impressions which is about 400 unique visitors per day (I’m simplifying a lot because it doesn’t matter)

So anyway, you see that getting 30 clicks on your pages every day is very easy, but at two conditions, you have to get the required traffic to your pages and so you need content that will attract people to your pages and secondly you need a correct ad placement so the CTR will easily reach 5%.

So to make things very simple I’m not going to explain everything about the thinking, because I have already talked about it before in my blog and also because it doesn’t matter I should get started with explaining my sure method to achieve this simple goal for every months to come.

You have to know that it will mean “working” every day for 4 weeks, but maybe just one hour a day. Can you do it really? If not, stop reading honestly you’ll never earn anything, continue what you’re doing it’s perfect.

So from now on I’ll only describe my method and not say why, if you have questions post them in the comments, and also perhaps one day I’ll take my method description again and paste it into a new blog post with more details about the why and how this works…

—-
What you need:
- some place to post your content, preferably your own web property (I mean a proper domain name and webhosting, with a CMS installed such as Drupal or WordPress) but if you don’t have that you can use my website ( http://www.best-reviewer.com ) or blogger, but that is weak and you should be ashamed of yourself. The best advise I can give you is to buy yourself a proper web hosting at Dreamhost ($8.95 per month) which comes with a free domain name, after on the same account you can have more sites with their domain name and you don’t pay more (except for the domain name itself, $9.95 per year if you buy it at Dreamhost).. If you don’t yet have a web hosting and are not dumb and want to follow my advise then you can use the promo code JAMESCOLIN (when they ask for it on the order form) that will give you $50 off your order. So in fact you’re not paying $8.95 per month..

- know the basics of Google Insights: http://www.google.com/insights/search/#

- install Google Analytics on your site (that’s why it’s best to have your own proper web hosting, but you can still put it on some places such as blogger, but some don’t allow that, bummer!) here’s the url for Google Analytics: http://www.google.com/analytics/

So, in Google Insights you have several categories:
Arts & Humanities
Automotives
Beauty & Personal Care
Business
Computers & Electronics
Entertainment
Finance & Insurance
Food & Drink
Games
Health
Home & Garden
Industries
Internet
Lifestyles
Local
News & Current Events
Photo & Video
Real Estate
Recreation
Reference
Science
Shopping
Social Networks & Online Communities
Society
Sports
Telecommunications
Travel

That’s 27 categories, it’s handy because my method takes 4 weeks to complete, so that’s 28 days, you guessed it, 1 category a day and one day for something else that will involve using Google Analytics, I’ll tell you at the end. You can repeat my method every month if you want, but you don’t need to, doing my method one time will allow you to receive minimum $100 every month from AdSense, but if you do it again then that will be $200 per month minimum until you die or remove the pages totally from the internet.

So the method is quite simple, I take the category SPORTS as an example and from that example you’ll have to use your brain a little bit, it’s the same for all categories, remember you’ll do one category per day.

So you go to Google Insights and you don’t put anything in Search terms input box, you let it empty, on the right you have 4 dropdown lists which default at:
Web Search
Worldwide
2004 – present
All Categories

Change it so it looks like:
Web Search
United States
Last 12 months
Sports

press the button Search on the right. OK, on the next page, scroll down to the bottom of the page and look at the two lists “Top searches” and “Rising searches”..
For the purpose of this demonstration I’ll show you what I get at this moment, it will surely be different when you’ll do it yourself, because it will be in the future compared to me (duh!) so:

Top searches
1. football
2. basketball
3. nfl
4. golf
5. sports
6. baseball
7. nba
8. soccer
9. espn
10. club

Rising searches
1. super bowl 2011
2. fb
3. packers
4. bulls
5. giants
6. steelers
7. nba
8. super bowl
9. twitter
10. cricket

The goal will be to choose 1 keyword from each list, so make sure you use your brain and show some creativity here.. First rule to help you, if one keyword is present in both searches, pick this one as the first keyword, so here we see that NBA is in both lists, so I take NBA, then for the second one I would also take another word present in both lists but there is none, so I’m free to choose anyone of the keywords in the two lists, of course you want to choose one nearest to the top of the lists. So I’m making a choice now, I’ll pick FOOTBALL.

So now I write down NBA & FOOTBALL that’s my first couple.

Now you go back to the top of the page and repeat this process by changing only the period/date, instead of Last 12 months you do it with Last 90 days, you pick one keyword in each list and once more with Last 30 days.

Don’t take the same couple of keywords, that is now you have 3 couples of keywords, in my case:
Last 12 months: NBA & FOOTBALL
Last 90 days: GOLF & PGA
Last 30 days: FOOTBALL & FANTASY FOOTBALL

Now, go back to Google Insights again and this time you’ll enter something in the search terms. You can put up to 5 search terms, sometimes with 3 couples of keywords you’ll have 6 different keywords, but sometimes like in my case you have less, so I can save a few seconds by doing it all in one time and input my five keywords in the Search times input boxes:
NBA
FOOTBALL
GOLF
PGA
FANTASY FOOTBALL

And then set the dropdown lists as follow:
Web Search
United States
2004 – present
Sports

Press Search button and scroll down to the bottom of the page..
Now you need to listen and understand, for each keyword you’ll do the same as before, pick two keywords (often they are keyphrases, that is 2 words or more, but there can also be single word keywords) one from each list, if some keywords are in both lists, pick those. If there are numbers in the keyphrases, pretend they don’t exist, that is for instance for NBA I get “2010 NBA DRAFT” if I pick this keyphrase I will consider only NBA DRAFT without the year, that’s what I mean by using your brain a little..

So I do this process and here are my results:
NBA & FOOTBALL: NBA DRAFT/ESPN & FOOTBALL SCHEDULE/COLLEGE FOOTBALL
GOLF & PGA: GOLF COURSE/GALAXY GOLF & PGA TOUR/PGA SUPERSTORE
FOOTBALL & FANTASY FOOTBALL: NCAA/NCAA FOOTBALL RANKINGS & YAHOO FANTASY/ESPN FANTASY

So, now we’re done with the keyword research, really.. here comes the “hard part” of my method, yes you have to create 3 pages on your site, you can’t copy & paste and if you know nothing about the keywords then you’ll have to do a little research to at least understand what the acronyms mean.

Write 500 characters minimum (that’s characters not words) piece of text about those topics, here’s how:
Come up with a title which include the couple of keywords, then write a text by using the 4 keywords per couple as well as the couple of keywords. Short example for my first couple of keywords:

TITLE: Is football better than NBA for TV?
TEXT: I watch a lot of sport on TV and yesterday I found myself asking an old buddy of mine: “what do you prefer watching? Football or NBA?”
He then came up with an interesting theory, that college football was far more superior to any ESPN match on TV because of the length of the number of players and the action.. The fact that those NBA Draft guys are so tall and the court so small make for too heavy TV action with wide angle and zooms, it gives him headaches. Instead the football schedule is very easygoing, well he ended his theory rather confusingly and we then talked about something else..
What do you think guys? Do you prefer to watch NBA or Football on your big screen TV?

OK, I just came up with this text without any effort, I know absolutely nothing about basketball and football, I didn’t do any research, but you should, I still don’t know what means ESPN, I suppose it is an organisation, and I’m not an english native speaker, so it shows a lot I’m sure, but what do I care seriously, all my keywords are inside and it’s good to go if I’m really lazy, if not for a real website I would make a little more effort, look, the same text with keywords in bold:

TITLE: Is football better than NBA for TV?
TEXT: I watch a lot of sport on TV and yesterday I found myself asking an old buddy of mine: “what do you prefer watching? Football or NBA?”
He then came up with an interesting theory, that college football was far more superior to any ESPN match on TV because of the length of the number of players and the action.. The fact that those NBA draft guys are so tall and the court so small make for too heavy TV action with wide angle and zooms, it gives him headaches. Instead the football schedule is very easy-going, well he ended his theory rather confusingly and we then talked about something else..
What do you think guys? Do you prefer to watch NBA or Football on your big screen TV?

Now, you do this work three times and you’re done for the day.. You can do more, and in this case you can choose more couples or more keywords per couple, but don’t burn all your energy, it’s better to do 3 pages a day for 4 weeks rather than doing 10 pages per day for 3 days and then stop before finishing all the categories. Plus by doing only 3 pages a day, you can allow yourself to write more text per page, more is better. My small text is not enough, I don’t know how many characters it has, maybe 500, but 500 is really a minimum and you should know that the more there is the better, simply make up a story and find an angle to talk about the topic that Google Insights gave you for today’s category.

I hope by this time you have completely understood what is your daily work, if not then you seriously need to write in the comment box below and ask a clear and precise question so I can help you understand..

I recommend you set up your site, the categories, and when you’re ready you star with the first category Arts & Humanities and write your 3 pages and put them in the Arts & Humanities category of your site. Then share those 3 pages on social media, at minimum you should have a facebook, google plus and twitter account and like/+1/tweet each one of your 3 pages. If you have time left you can digg/stumbleupon/delicious/reddit/etc.

Don’t do anything more, don’t comment spam or forum spam. No! Just rest, enjoy what is left of your day and wait for tomorrow and start the Automotives category..

Can you do that for 27 days straight? Then what do you do with the 28th day? Easy you open your Google Analytics account and look at the search engine referrers. You want to know what search queries your visitors used on Google in order to come to your site. Granted most of the queries will be for pages that you’ve done earlier, you might not see queries for the pages you’ve posted on the 25th, 26th or 27th day, but it doesn’t matter, just look at those queries and then take 3 amongst the top 10 queries and create one page for each one with the title having the exact query and the text being an explanation, or anything else, here again you can be creative, repeat that query several times in your text..

You’re done!

Look at your adsense account and tell me you’re not SO HAPPY, I dare you! :-)

You can then take some rest, relax, enjoy, and maybe start another 4 weeks round to increase your daily earnings even more, by that time honestly it will have already become an habit and the daily chore won’t feel so difficult. You may even like it, you masochist! Also you can admit that by now you’ve learned many little different things that you didn’t know before, so you can write better texts in the next round with more ease than on the first round.

Honestly, I don’t believe anyone reading this will have the balls, faith, motivation, whatever you want to call it, to actually apply my method.. But if you’ve done it, please comment and give me your results and a link to your site where you have posted all your pages. There should be a minimum of 28 * 3 = 84 pages optimized for popular keywords in 27 categories. If you don’t have that, don’t bother writing in the comments, I don’t want to hear about you. Really.

hong kong disneyland 2011

August 25, 2011   admin   No comments

After months of deliberation, The Walt Disney Company was able to secure a deal with the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region Government in November 1999 on Penny’s Bay, Lantau Island to build a theme park, two hotels, and a retail, dining, and entertainment complex.   Because land was so scarce in Hong Kong, 280 hectares of land was dredged to make space.  Disney planned on occupying 126 hectares of land in its initial Phase I build-out, commencing in an opening day projected for 2005/2006.  The

proposed construction would include a 400-room Disney resort hotel.  Hong Kong Disneyland’s anticipated projected attendance in its first year totaled 6 million visitors.

 

Based upon general Disneyland themes mixed with the cultural flavor of Hong Kong, Hong Kong Disneyland presented the city with an estimated 18,000 new jobs at opening (a projected 35,800 jobs over 20 years) and an approximate present economic value of $19 billion USD.  The $1.8 billion USD Disney venture would be supported heavily by the government from a fiduciary prospective.  The Hong Kong government’s total of $22.5 Billion not only included equity, but also a substantial portion of the project debt and $13.6 billion in land formation and infrastructure improvements.

The financial structure of the Hong Kong Disneyland deal was greatly in favor of Disney.  The project was to be financed through a 60/40 debt to equity split, with 80% of the debt covered by the Hong Kong government, and 20% of the debt covered through commercial means.  Disney would supply 43% of the equity, and the government would take an equity stake of 57% in the project.

Hurricane preparedness

Hurricane preparedness

The White House on Wednesday urged people on the East Coast to be prepared for the possible impact of Hurricane Irene, which could pose threat to people living on its path.

Principal Deputy Spokesman Josh Earnest made the statement in Martha’s Vineyard, where President Barack Obama is having a summer vacation. He said Obama was briefed earlier in the day about the latest development of the hurricane, which could impact the Massachusetts island where Obama is scheduled to stay until Saturday.

Earlier in the day, National Hurricane Center Director Bill Read warned Hurricane Irene is expected to affect the East Coast from late Saturday, and could be a “big threat” to New England region.

“The exact center of the storm may actually stay pretty close to the coastline during the day on Saturday and then become a big threat for New England and perhaps Long Island” on Sunday, Read said during a conference call with reporters.

Irene strengthened to a major Category 3 hurricane Wednesday near the Bahamas, packing winds of 115 miles per hour (185 km per hour). It is sweeping through the Caribbean and is on a Northwestward path expected to swipe the East Coast from the Carolinas upward at the weekend, according to forecasters.

The Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) has said it is continuing to closely monitor Hurricane Irene and coordinating closely with all of its state and territorial partners in the Caribbean and along the east coast that have already or could possibly experience impacts from this storm.

7 wonders of the ancient world

August 23, 2011   admin   No comments

 

7 wonders of the ancient world – Various lists of the Wonders of the World have been compiled from antiquity to the present day, to catalogue the world’s most spectacular natural wonders and manmade structures.

The 7 wonders of the ancient world is the first known list of the most remarkable creations of classical antiquity, and was based on guide-books popular among Hellenic sight-seers and only includes works located around the Mediterranean rim. The number seven was chosen because the Greeks believed it to be the representation of perfection and plenty. Many similar lists have been made.

The Colosseum, the Great Pyramid of Giza, the Great Wall of China and Machu Picchu are world-famous ancient architectural wonders, but they’re hardly the only man-made structures worthy of effusive praise, enthusiastic photography and economy-stimulating tourism. These 7 historical sites, ranging from an incredibly deep well in India to the cradle of Mayan civilization – complete with the world’s first highway system – are often overlooked, but represent some of the most jaw-dropping and mysterious engineering feats from ancient times to the medieval period.

Perhaps one of the most beautiful examples of patterns in architecture, the 10th century Chand Baori well in the Indian state of Rajasthan is the world’s deepest, extending 100 feet below the surface of the earth. Built as a solution to chronic water supply issues in this arid region, the well has a total of 3,500 steps in 13 levels arranged in an inverted ‘V’ shape and is adjacent to the Harshat Mata temple. The walls are so steep that when standing at the bottom, you sometimes can’t see people who are on the steps above you. It’s difficult to imagine the construction process for such a complex stone structure with the technology available at the time. Local legend has it that ghosts built it in a single night; perhaps that accounts for its preternaturally preserved state as well.

What are the 7 wonders of the ancient world?

1- The 3 Pyramids of Egypt at Giza, outside modern Cairo.

Estimated date of completion is 2680 B.C.

2- The Hanging Gardens of Babylon

Supposedly built by Nebuchadnezzar around 600 B.C. to please his queen, Amuhia. They are also associated with the mythical Assyrian queen Semiramis. Archeologists surmise that the gardens were laid out atop a vaulted building, with provisions for raising water.

3- The Statue of Zeus (Jupiter) at Olympia

Made of gold and ivory by the Greek sculptor Phidias (5th century B.C.). The statue has been lost without a trace, except for reproductions on coins.

4- The Temple of Artemis (Diana) at Ephesus

Built around 350 B.C., in honor of a non-Hellenic goddess who later became identified with the Greek goddess of the same name. In A.D. 262, invading Goths destroyed the temple.

5- The Mausoleum at Halicarnassus

Erected by Queen Artemisia in memory of her husband, King Mausolus of Caria in Asia Minor, who died in 353 B.C. Some remains of the structure are in the British Museum. This shrine is the source of the modern word mausoleum.

6- The Colossus at Rhodes

Was a bronze statue of Helios (Apollo). The work of the sculptor Chares, who reputedly labored for 12 years before completing it in 280 B.C., it was destroyed during an earthquake in 224 B.C.

7- The Pharos (Lighthouse) of Alexandria

Was built by Sostratus of Cnidus during the 3rd century B.C. on the island of Pharos off the coast of Egypt. It was destroyed by an earthquake in the 13th century.

(Some lists include the Walls of Babylon in place of the second or seventh wonder.)

Why were the 7 wonders of the ancient world in one certain area in the world?

the 7 wonders of the ancient world were predominantly in the Mediterranean area and Middle East. Within the Mediterranean area, the ancient wonders are place in Greece, Africa (Egypt), and Rome. In the middle east, the rest of the wonders were placed in Persia and Babylonia.

The 7 ancient wonders of the ancient world include the Colossus of Rhodes, Statue of Zeus at Olympia, Great Pyramid of Giza, Lighthouse of Alexandria, Hanging Gardens of Babylon, Temple of Artemis at Ephesus, and the Mausoleum of Maussollos at Helicarnassas.

The Mediterranean world (and Middle East) were the most influential areas of their time period. For one, they influence others, and they also influence future civilizations.

I has not yet been proven that the Hanging Gardens of Babylon existed — at least at Babylon.

guangzhou pronunciation

With the development of China’s economy, more and more people know the word”guangzhou”,but what’s “guangzhou pronunciation”?How do you pronounce Guangzhou?

The best way is to make a voice recording,but i don’t know how to make it.but i don’t know how to make it.

The followings are two kinds of  “guangzhou pronunciation”.

1.guangzhou pronunciation

The characters for Guangzhou AKA Canton is 广州(gwäng-jo).
2.guangzhou pronunciation

“Putong Hua” is considered the primary/original Mandarin that essentially all other dialects are based off of. The “zh” is pronounced as a “j” and is, as far as I know, consistent in that pronuciation across most or all dialects. So with Guangzhou, phonetically I pronounce it as “Gwahn-joe” or “Gwahng-joe”, but I tend to leave the “g” silent. The “Gwahn” is pronounced almost like “Swan”.
