The Future of Adsense?

There are tons of eBooks about how you can monetize your website by placing Adsense ads on it. However, there are many sites that are just overwhelmed with ads, so the visitors are running away immediately. Of course you also can find pages, where the placement of ads is very solid, but smart, so they probably generate a nice income stream.
But even if you know, how to generate those ad-clicks, you are still losing a LOT of money!
Are Banner Ads Dead? NO!
In the past years, there were many discussions about banner advertising as the traffic source of the past. PPC became more and more popular, so the average marketers have also realized that they can get cheap targeted traffic as well. Seemed like everybody has accepted, that banner ads are dead, and is not worth to use (except if you are a big guy with a lot of money).
However, I’ve discovered a cool video yesterday about how to do banner advertising correctly. The techniques used in the video are very similar to the strategies of PPC advertising, but it’s far less competitive as Adwords, so it’s really worth to watch it:
The Magic of Writing Down Your Goals
Goal setting is one of the most important techniques of a successful businessman. If you have an online or offline business (or just a little website), you always have to ask one question from yourself:
“What can I do to improve my business?”

While answering this question, try to define exact steps, exact goals, and not just some general sagacity like “I want to have more traffic”. If you’ve already have realistic goals, write them down and put them in front of yourself, next to your computer. I know it seems like it wouldn’t make any sense, but writing down your goals helps you a LOT. After you’re done, just select the most important one(s) and focus ONLY on it!

Whatever you do for your business, you always have to do it to bring your goal closer to yourself. If you don’t write it down, and don’t see it every time you are working, it will be much harder to concentrate only on it, because you probably have to keep 1000 other things in your mind.
After you’ve achieved your goal, just look at the next one, and follow the same method as I described above. Believe me, if you’re acting this way, your business will improve a LOT faster than without this simple method.
Think big, Earn big!
I’ve recently read a forum post from Daniel E. Taylor at the Warrior Forum about how average marketers went from a few thousand dollars a month, up to $50K a month! The post is very I opening, so if you’ve ever planed to have an online business, you absolutely have to read it:
“I know that number may seem unreachable, or huge
to you. Don’t worry. It’s not only possible it’s really
pennies compared to the infinite possibilities there are
to generate income online.
