Woohoo! I finally finished installing adsense tracking materials.

The result: I have 20 adsense websites in three different niches that are now ready to be taken to the next level.

Up Next: I’m going to be going through optimization on-page and off-page to get your sites (and my sites) to the level in which they are going to receive high rankings in the search engines. Some of the things that I’m going to show you have to be done every day and some things only have to be done once.

When it comes to optimization, if you are willing to take the time you can almost certainly guarantee high rankings. And, on the contrary if you are not willing to take the time, you can almost certainly guarantee someone else is. Some adsense professionals are made up of entire companies. But, if you are like me, you are an army of one. So, what we need is to make sure that we are being very efficient with our time. And because I am only one person, I have to make sure that the time I spend building up my sites is well spent. So because I have a great idea where to go and what to do, I’m going to show you how to do the same. Get ready over the next couple of days because here we go.

It took me a couple of days to finish installing the adsense tracking materials I mentioned in my last post a couple of days ago. At this time, I have installed google analytics, adsense channels, and adsense gold (astracker) on one of my adsense niche set of ten sites. Now I can get a much more detailed look at what or who is bringing the traffic to my sites.

Tonight and tomorrow, I am going to finish up installing the adsense tracking on the other two niches that I have. One niche has 3 websites, the other niche has 7 websites. If you haven’t yet installed tracking on your sites, it is essential. If you can test what is working on your sites, then you can continue to improve what is working on your sites.

Installing tracking materials on your sites is only the beginning. Yes, it is a ton of footwork to go back and install the materials. But as I said before, if you already have a bunch of sites, don’t kill yourself getting them where they need to be–this includes tracking. Pace yourself. We’re trying to form habits here. We all know that it is better to work 10-30 minutes a day on your sites than working 2 hours one day out of the week on your sites.

Now, I’m going to need to make $200/mo with adsense, so we will begin speeding things up here soon. And since, I am a programmer, I have already begun developing tools of my own to help speed up the process, but because the tools are not quite ready for public use, I can’t let anyone else use them yet. But let me give you a couple of tips about installing tracking and why it’s important. These tips are not in any particular order. I’m writing them as they come to me.

1) when you install google analytics. Install it in an include if at all possible. The code below will suffice:

<?php include ‘http://www.’.$_SERVER['HTTP_HOST'].’/google/analytics.js’;?>

This code can be dropped into any webpage in which the server can support php. This code also assumes that you have a folder called google in your public_html folder on your server and that a javascript(js) file is saved inside the folder. This ‘analytics.js’ file is where you save your google analytics code to. Drop this code at the bottom of each of the pages on your site right before the ‘</body>’ tag.

The benefit of doing this is that if you ever have to edit or change this analytics code, you only have to change it in one place and all pages will then be updated after that.

2) Tracking (such as astracker) is important because you can begin seeing trends on what ads are more popular (being clicked on more) than others. That is, the ads that more people are clicking on are ads that you should take note of and begin implementing across your site.

3) Tracking (such as analytics) is extremely important so you can begin to identify traffic trends and how visitors are arriving at your site–whether through referrals, search engines, or directly. Particularly you should pay particular attention to the keywords that people are arriving to your site through. This may help you target traffic (through seo) for keywords you never thought about.

So those are the quick tips and things on my mind today. After I have tracking installed on all my sites, I’m going to move on to seo (on-page and off-page) for my sites, and then link bait. And guess what, it’s a cycle. After I feel confident with the sites that I have, I’m going to begin building more. Seven months–$200/month. Are you with me? Are you already doing it? Share your comments.

Ok, so today I’m keeping it short and sweet. I’m taking a brief amount of time this evening to install adsense tracking materials on several of my sites. As I have already said in the past, currently I have twenty “money sites” in three different niches. One of these niches has ten sites in it. I am going to take that niche and the money sites within this niche and make sure that I have tracking installed on these ten websites.

You may be wondering what kind of tracking I am going to be installing. I have given a quick synopsis of tracking materials in the past but have not gone into great detail about them. And again today, because today is an action day for me, I am not going to be going into great detail about them. In the near future I will, and I will even make some videos for you to watch as I go into greater detail.

Here is a list of the tracking materials I am installing tonight on these ten sites:

1) Site Super Tracker (astracker)
2) Google Channels (from adsense)
3) Google Analytics (from my adwords account)

These are going to be essential to me running successful adsense sites. If you already know the steps to take to install these, I urge you to take action now. Do what I am doing, don’t kill yourself–pace yourself. I am installing these adsense tracking materials on one of my niches tonight. Professional adsense tools for professional adsense publishers. Now’s the time, do the same for yourself now, and I’ll talk to you soon.

If you are new to adsense, understand that I will be doing videos on installing these on your adsense sites in the near future.
