John Reese (a.k.a. Mr. Traffic Secrets) has released a new video (and great viral marketing tool) showing that his AdSense “side business” generated $526,744.35 in revenues over the past year. Watch this video for inspiration on what is possible with AdSense revenue generation.

There are a few things that I noted:

1. John mentioned that this is for a network of hundreds of sites. So don’t go building one website and expect any stellar results.

2. It’s all traffic from search engine results. That means he didn’t directly pay for the traffic. Lesson - you’ll have to learn some SEO and optimize your pages for the search engines. You’ll neeed loads of traffic. Look at the page impressions in the stats he shows. On the best days, the ads got over 100,000 impressions.

3. It’s about the keyword research. Yes, read that line again. You’ve got to find phrases people are searching for that have high demand and low supply. That means high search volume but few pages optimized for those keywords.

4. Aged domains rank better. Although there’s no concrete proof, it’s the general consensus that the older your domain, the better chances it has to get a good ranking (PR included).

5. Leverage. If you’ve got lots of sites that have high PR, you can use these to “introduce” new sites of a related theme to the search engines to get them indexed quicker than your competition.

The bottom line is money always gets peoples’ attention. Especially LOTS of money. That’s why I think John’s strategy of creating this video as a viral marketing tool is brilliant. It’s something that people will talk about in marketing forums and tell their friends about. What a great way to promote his newsletter (which you can subscribe to if you click on the link below the video).

I’ve seen too many forum posts that asks, “How can I make $10 per day?” or “How can I make $100 per day?” To that, I say - DREAM BIG - and aim high. A few thousand a day is not impossible. John showed that on the best days, earnings went over $4,000 in a day.
