Problem With High Paying Adsense Keywords

I've seen many people eager to search and get adsense high paying keyword list. Nothing wrong with that but I don't really into hunting those keywords because :

1. The number of clicks is around 1 - 3 per day
2. too many competitors (everybody crazing to get easy bucks from adsense)
3. the market is too narrow

I make websites that are appealing to the general audience. So number 3 is a no for me.

I don't know CEO much. So my butt will be kicked by CEO expert. 2 is not for met.

Factor 1 plus factor 2 = chances to get click is almost 0.

That's why I don't fancy hunting high paying keywords or niche...

New idea project launch is a success!

Yes, launch is a success! Thank you God for this gift!

I considered it a success because it managed to get the 'kick start' I expected.

Anyway, this is an 'active' process, not passive process. On February then I will know whether I really created something useful or just a fad.

This time however, I tried new method which is using Facebook. Result? Lolz. Not very effective. Better stick to my old methods.

Wish me luck :)

January expectation

Weird, even after 2nd January, my visits still around 35% less than usual. Meaning... my earnings are not good too. Wondering what is happening at united states today, or is there something wrong with my website? Hurm...

If this continues, I expect my earning for January will be around USD150.

And here's my visitors graph
. As you can see, there lines dived during around christmas and new year. For the new year, I am not 100% sure whether it due to new year but since people say 23rd to 2nd Jan is the worst period for adsense publisher, maybe it is... who knows.





Why No Adsense here?

1. Ethical issues. The nature of this blog seems to make people to click the ads (to support etc which I never ask). Which means it can draw fraud clicks. As an ethical Adsense publisher, I decided to leave it ads free.
2. Personal satisfaction. The main reason I made this blog not to make money. It’s for personal satisfaction and to give encouragement.
3. I don’t depend on this blog for money. I have other websites which make the money.
