4 Types of Sites to Earn Money From Adsense

Adsense and affiliate marketing are extremely hot in the internet and marketing world right now, primarily because of the fact that you need not spend hours and hours of tedious writing to create a product to sell. This article outlines 4 different kind of sites that you can create to start earning from Google's Adsense or other affiliate programs that are available in the market.

#1- Traditional Niche Content Website
The first type of site you can create is the traditional niche content website. This method involves you building a site from scratch. You can get a domain name for a small sum per year and then host it somewhere. Next, you need to create a template, add content and implement your adsense and affiliate links. You can download free templates or pay for someone to create you one. You can collect content from free reprint articles from directories or you could use private label articles - you could even use a mixture of all three.

#2- Blog
The second type of site you could build is a blog. This "website" you are reading is in fact a blog. A blog is great because of the various levels of automation available to automate some of the tasks. Besides, blogs are also free to set up and maintain. Google's Adsense also works seamlessly with blogs. All you have ot do is edit the template to include adsense and you have a blog that is up and running to earn money for you from adsense. Once that's done you simply need to add content and you can do that like you did for the first method. Post to your blog once per day for the first month, 3 times per week for the next month and then once per week for the rest of the time and you will have a blog producing a consistent income stream from Adsense for months and years into the future. I did not really practice posting every day but I have still managed to earn quite a small and steady stream of income from adsense over the past few months.

#3- Article Directory
The third type of site you could create is an article directory. I'm sure you've seen them before and I'm sure you've used them before, but have you ever owned one before?

You can find free software to power your article directory and once it's set up and you have a regular stream of traffic, you will have tens, then hundreds, then thousands of authors submitting content to your site on a daily basis. That means thousands of new pages with your adsense ads and affiliate links being created every day.

There are thousands of article directory sites out there now however and competition is fierce. You should perhaps consider setting up a niche article directory on a particular subject, so that you can dominate that niche market.

#4- Create a Forum
The final type of site you could create also involves profiting from content your visitors submit. Welcome to Web 2.0! Look at Wikipedia, the content is basically all from visitors. Setting up a forum can be very profitable, especially as you can build a relationship with your website visitors and they are more likely to purchase or click on something you recommend.

This 4 types of sites will help one to earn a steady stream of income from adsense or affiliate marketing.

Do not expect this to start earning money online for you straightaway though. There are many other things that you must do and work hard at before a site truly becomes profitable. You still need to build your websites, promote them and tweak them for maximum earning potential from Adsense.
