.50 cents? Not the right planet, let alone the right country :) I am guessing .02 cents would be fantastic for an Arabic horoscope site ....

[bwhhisc]

Can you share any earnings statistics for the site over the last year.

[basel]

the truth bill i cant give share info about the adsense revenue now for some reasons

1- the web site is growing fast , we want to do step by step the traffic plans
as we start with natural traffic we want then see what some banners can do and how many visitors will join us every day after a visit from a banner

2- we want to active the email daily luck to let visitors click there horosopes daily luck link every day from email and for sure the page will contain adsense

3- we would like to check more and more the adsense revenue to see the average

i can tell that we have little revenue now because of little clicks less than 3k clicks in the one year

but the trust i never get .02 click , my average is always the .04 and .10 clicks and chris can confirm this
at the end of this year i will be happy to share more info about revenue as im working with plan after plan for traffic , i dont want this site live for just adsense , i liked to see
1- paid services from the site (example sms daily luck )
2- paid products from the site (selling books,articles)
3- selling banners , selling ads and memberships
4- adsense for sure

this can all come and increase with more and more traffic
THEN
1- link horoscopes.com members emails data to tasjeel.com email marketing paid service
2- our target is females - and we add gender choose in the websites and country choose so we are trying to get big data to send advertisement of female products like perfume/flowers/makeup through categories and ages
share comission from email services (Horoscopescom <--------> tasjeel.com)

we are happy that this site is come top than maktoob.com horoscope service in google resluts now and im sure from number 10 in first page to 9 in first page can double the traffic so why not if to be number 1 so XXXXdouble visitors

everybody know that horoscopes.com is killer keyword to search it through browsers so our target is to get the top place in first pages

thanks

[basel]

other note :

this site get 10+ offers to buy the site over the year
i will not share offers prices but its much more than the domain price + development fees over the year - and fund can make other 4 websites in same fees

chirs only can share offers range if he interesting , but some offers i saw ,if the website is mine , i think its now under other managment as i feel im happy of this offer prices range :)

other note :

im happy that our website ابراج.com horoscopes.com save traffic from الابراج.com thehoroscopes.com as chris own both names

[squirrel]

cool, thanks for sharing Basel.

[bwhhisc]

Thanks for the info.........development is more feasable if there is a return on investment. Probably a good idea from google page rank etc to not put any ads on the site for the first year or so....

There are so many top, top generic keywords and geo domains owned by members here, if they were all "ascii.coms" some here would probably be bizillionaires. :p

[sarcle]

I'd know I'd develop mine. That's what I've always planned to do with my domains. Problem is, most advertisers have it set up so only natives can join their programs leaving only adsense left.

So you spend a couple grand just developing one site and you can't sell anything off it. Thus making developing the domains not worth it at this point. :(

STUCK!!!!!

No .idn. No email. No advertisers. Hell, you can't even give them away at this point or sell for anything substantial. I didn't get in this to cash out for a few grand. Hm..... What to do?

Try spending thousands of dollars on dev and then putting no ads on the site, its not realistic .... and I doubt it has any major impact on rankings either way. Sites have to be monetized.

[domainguru]

Everyone has to be realistic about dev. Its a time-consuming, skill-based enterprise that has BIG risks.

Its all right talking about the amazing amount of traffic / income you will get in the future, but until it happens, its just hope winning out over reality.

Many people don't even seem to do basic calculations to realize the huge numbers of visitors you have to do to get even a reasonable income, especially when you are talking $0.05 per click or less.

And don't even get me started on the work you have to do to seriously affect the amount of repeat traffic you get. Its not even funny.

We all dream of slowly adding pages or whatever to a site and gradually climbing the rankings and making loads of money, but the reality is often the reverse. There are many more places outside the Google Top 10 for a keyword than inside that - never forget that - most people targeting a keyword are disappointed - that's the way the world works.

Not trying to put people off, just be realistic, and I would certainly advise people to look incredibly serious at RPM, both projected and realized.

[bwhhisc]

I didn't say not to put any ads on it.

I only comment that there is a strategy (good or bad I don't know, but does make some sense) to build a website that initially has 0 ads, then add content and articles monthly, build links, get page rank, get traffic....THEN begin to put on banners and ads and monetize.

Appreciate your experience and any comments on this 'method'.

[basel]

yes bill anyway in the both sites there is no more than 2 adsense codes
one in header and one in main page

i believe you are true about the pagerank and adsense because the website will share low pagerank websites and urls

but at same time i beleive that the pagerank will come and the adsense is important for the website not just for fast revenue

i need to see how many people click on ads from low traffic to high traffic by the days

there is a websites had very good traffic and no clicks and some websites low traffic and much clicks

i need to see website pages visits and to check how many visitors clicks ads if they are in different functions in the site

and im with domainguru if you not interesting to let some of the visitors leave your sites from clicking the ads , you will not put ads even when your website become very popular , so you closed the subject of revenues for ever

thanks

Yeah I realize you said no ads for the first year. Just can't see Google would care one way or another if you have ads on, Google actually like you placing ads on your sites, particularly adsense ones ;-)

[bwhhisc]

Yeah, I guess they might secretly penalize you for not "sharing". :lol:

Thanks!
