One of the best ways to increase web search engine traffic is to write a blog post about something no other “blog” has written about.

How to go about this?

Well, first you need to research which search terms are currently giving you the most web traffic.

For example, if your blog is about travel and gets 20% of daily traffic from the search term, “best hotels in america”, you need to consider the fact that your one of your blog’s strength is about “best of something in somewhere”.

After finding out what search terms your blog gets most, simply change the wording around to something like, “best inns in south america”.

Then, do a Google search on, “best inns in south america”.  Now, if you see a lot of results that point to blogs, this isn’t a good title for your next blog post.

However, if you see no blog results, this might be a great title for your next blog post as there’s no competition for that search term.

Now, you do this process over and over for all your top-ranking search terms and I guarantee you that every blog post you write is super-niche and you will likely to show up before anyone else on Google.

In other words, “Write about what noone is writing about“.  It’s really simple as that.  But do keep in mind that the target search term would be something that would be searched a lot.  Don’t write about something that no one would search for, that’d be stupid.

Well, here’s a blog that I have been working on since couple months ago.  As you can see, ProGolferDigest.com has been around almost a year now and I was getting like good decent traffic of around 200-300 uniques per day.  The site went down for couple days due to my lazyness.

Since March, I have been doing about 1-3 posts per day, all targeted at my SEO target keywords but found that this golf is still one of the best kept hidden goldmines.

Basically, the traffic growth resulted all from Google search terms.  Hence, this type of blog is explosive for making money online as a large number of your readers are people searching on Google and other search engines.

I’ve also learned that when you write a post about current events such as the U.S. Open, you get a spike of search engine traffic due to the people who are searching for it.

With just couple Adsense, this blog is making almost couple clicks, which isn’t too bad.

I think with a larger traffic such as around 2000 pageviews per day, this type of blog can make about $50-100 per day due to the “niche” of the blog.  The golf blog world hasn’t even started, there’s not enough golf blogs yet…

By end of this year maybe that could happen if I keep blogging daily about golf…man I’d rather play golf.  (That’s why I end up going golfing because I write about it…works I guess…)

This is my mindset for Multiple Blogs

Grow multiple blogs  and start watching which one grows faster, and then concentrate on those fast blogs to expect some results.

The slower blogs can be slow so really adjust your focus on building the blogs that are “growing” faster.

I think you need to really have multiple blogs in order to be successful at making money blogs as you can’t rely on one subject.

Once you develop couple really interesting topics for you and your niche market, you simply grow it with all the other blogs but watching the results in-between.

Which ever blog is growing faster, meaning more “search engine” traffic increase over a period of time, you need to put all your bloggers and blog posts onto those blogs.

Eventually, every site you run will increase in reputation and rankings if any one site increases due to the “network” structure of multiple blogs.  The opposite can happen, but you can simply deplete that link if the worst comes to worst.

Well, that’s my theory anyways.

If you have a better one, please feel free to suggest and use the comments.

A lot of people don’t know that fact about web traffic and the fact remains that you need a special “type” of web traffic to get the people to be interested in your advertisements whether that be Google Adsense or whatever.

Here’s are some facts about what kind of people are more likely to read and click on ads:

1. Blog subscribers are overrated, they are the worst type of traffic that’d click on your ads. Besides, most subscribers are subscribers because they see your blog through an RSS reader, thus they’d even rarely see the ad at all unless you had feed ads.

Blog subscribers are the worst for making money because they know your site layout already, they are “ad blind”, as they say.

2. Traffic coming from Digg, Stumbleupon, Reddit, and social networking are worthless. Most of the time, they will steal your bandwidth and you pretty much don’t make any money unless you can “consistently” make the front page, in which case you will gain a lot of SEO, which is good for making money online.

Most people coming from the social networking traffic are too smart to even read your ads, don’t waste your time building up traffic this way. You might end up with 1000 more uniques per day but if that doesn’t convert, you are the one who end up wasting time. (Whereas if you only had 100 uniques from search engines, you’d probably make more money in comparison)

3. Traffic from Google search terms are the best for making money. People who click through a search engine more than often click out through Google Adsense ads. This is where the money is. If you can somehow increase the number of people coming to your site through Google, Yahoo, or any other search engines, you have the best type of web traffic, the people who read and click on ads.

So what’s the point of this story?

You need to spend 90% of your time blogging, consistently about your niche topic. Do not waste your time with too many social networks as they don’t give you “money” results. The social networks might earn you more readers and traffic but they simply don’t convert to money.

Also, don’t try so hard to get a lot of subscribers. Your subscribers should be subscribing to your blog because they are REALLY interested in keeping up with your blog news.

If you use contests and other methods simply to increase the number of subscribers, it doesn’t really help you when you are counting money at the end of the day.

Subscribers = The worst traffic for CPC advertising

Social Network traffic = Also worst traffic for CPC advertising

Random People who find your site through a search engine = This is your goldmine, if you can get the number of visitors coming to your site up to about 90% of total traffic, that is ideal for making money online.

Other people including blog experts might tell you otherwise but in my experience, this is what has worked and what is working for me. If you have further suggestions, I am ears are always open and you are welcome to comment.

Well, in a recent interview with John Chow, I did get some great secrets from John on how to monetize my blogs.

I went from losing money every month on server fees to making almost $6K per month in just a month.

Now, what did I learn from John Chow?

He did tell me that RSS subscribers are the key to making money with blogs.

But I beg to differ.

It really depends on “how” you are making money online. Let’s say you do that mostly through affiliate programs and CPA deals, you will probably be better off with lots of RSS subscribers.

Now in my case, I have low RSS subscribers on most of my blogs yet I do get some good traffic, total of about 30K uniques per day as a network.

I also did research on some blogs with very high RSS subscribers, around 10K-20K, and found out that high number of RSS subscribers doesn’t always equal high web traffic.

For example, my Zedomax.com gets almost 7,000 uniques per day yet I only have 900 RSS subscribers.  99% of my readers are super bouncers and I don’t rely on my readers to make money for me, I rely on the new people that come to the site to make money.

For me, I’ve built my blogs on a network model planned to drive up web traffic, not subscribers.

Because of that model, I get about 90% of my traffic from search engines like Google. Now, I don’t have many subscribers but I do get lots of new people to all the blogs as 90% of the web traffic is new people through Google search terms.

John Chow sells lots of private advertising and lots of affiliate programs with tiers.

Now, the secret John Chow told me personally was not the fact that I need to raise number of RSS subscribers, but he said to me, “Drive Traffic and Maximize Income!”

Well, I took that to my heart and started moving around Google Adsense ads.  Within 4 weeks, I went from $1000 revenue to almost now $6000.  (the check should be coming soon)

With more fine tuning and optimizing my ads, I am pretty sure I can get near $10K/month range by the end of this year.  Not too bad for changing and moving around your ads.

RSS is not overrated, but it is overrated for people like me who build sites for traffic, not subscribers.

The great part about building natural search traffic is that those people who use Google to find your site are also the most likely people to click out of your site using your Adsense ads.

What I’ve learned in the last few weeks is that there’s never one way to skin a money making cat.  The most important thing you have to do is to spend a lot of time to adjust and try different things until you can maximize the income from your blog.

That’s what John Chow did and I just proved it to myself AND told you about it.

Now go take my medicine and try it yourself and see if you can double, triple, or quadruple your income!
