Don’t know where to start? Started but don’t know what to do? Frustrated that your website isn’t making any money? To be honest we’ve all been there but its more important to stay focused on the main goals. The best advice I’ve received so far is to “just do it.” Sitting there wondering what could be will never get you anywhere. Get out there try different ideas that will be the only way! The advice may seem cliche but when it all boils down, your results are directly proportionate to your effort.
You don’t know where to start?
Ask yourself about a topic you are truly excited to talk about, once you find it, start a blog. If blogging is not for you there are plenty of other options. A good way to find ideas is search on Ebay, Sitepoint, Digitalpoint and see what other types of sites are being sold. The ideas are endless! Don’t just sit here thinking that you have no idea what to do, just go now and do it!
You have a website but there isn’t traffic?
Go comment on similar blogs with follow links, post on forums with your link in signature, add your link to directories, create backlinks with more popular sites! Give it time, traffic will come if you have good genuine content. It is frustrating at times but when the day comes it will be all worth it. I’ve sat in front of the monitor watching pennies roll in day after day until suddenly it turned into $1/day then $2 then $3 and so on! Keep your attitude positive and just do it!
You have traffic but revenue is low?
Move the ads around and change things! There is no straight formula for how much a specific website should make. Maybe yours isn’t built for Adsense? Try affiliate programs, try pay per impression ads! There WILL be something that works but only you will be able to find it. You just have to do it to find out!
It is really easy to lose sight of your goals when your websites aren’t rolling in the dough. Refocus, give it time, hit it hard and just do it! I promise one day it will pay off.
