I was struggling to make money with Google AdSense for over a year. I’ve tried many things – adding content consistently for a few months, having a huge website of over 50+ thousand pages, AdSense arbitrage – you name it. I could not get it to work and couldn’t understand why. Then, just another rainy morning (I live in England), I read a few posts by someone who was claiming to have made millions in AdSense (I was lucky enough to hit on the post purely by accident), and he was discussing the trends and what he though the next big thing will be. He was revealing his “big Google AdSense secret”, that’s not a secret at all. It’s consistent quality. This is what will drive the future businesses forward.

In today’s internet, there is just too much useless information and useless sites that are obviously there with only one intention, which is to make money. They don’t care bout what the customers will think of them and they don’t give any though to how the web works, hence they don’t; have a clue about what they are doing and why they are not making money. And they don’t care. In today’s internet, for every one success there are 100 failures (this is a guess work by the way, but it cannot be far from the reality).  A lot of those people are misinformed and think that it is easy – after reading all those sales letter that are written by people just like them, it’s totally understandable why it gets confusing. Many of them though are just lazy and don’t want to put the work that it takes to lift an income stream off the ground. It can be easy and was easier-ish a few years ago when the internet has just being evolving and there as less competition, but it got a little harder and you cannot lift a business off the ground with just a few hours a day working on it. It takes time and determination to succeed. For some people it takes 10+ years before they start making anything more than 20 000 grand a year, but because they are focused and love what they do, they eventually become millionaires.

It makes sense therefore to think about your personality and plan your strategy etc before you even start spending time doing anything online. You’ve got to tell yourself this: “I know having my own business will mean I will have to work harder than I ever worked – especially in my first year, and I am totally up to the challenge, because I know I will be rewarded in the end”. And you have to enjoy making decisions and not having anyone behind your back with a stick in order for you to do your work. And before you understand this, you will not be happy and you likeliness of success is pretty low.
