Currently,I’m making over USD2,000 per month from the Adsenes alone.I think the Adsense placement
is very important.For a blog,I highly recommend that you text the large rectangle format under
the post title.Andas for Adsense colours.use what your blog links are using.For example.
If you are using blue colour link,you make the Adsense link blue as well.
Different wedsites will get different results.I recommend you text the different Adsense placements
and find out which one worksbst for you .For myself,I did a lot of placement testintg.You
may notice that I always change the placement from here to there.
Can you share your experience with Google Adsense in terms of have well they vare doing for youy and what
October 25, 2008 by tonykekHow did you get traffic to your blog initially?
October 25, 2008 by tonykekWhen I Started my blog,I su7bmitted my blog to many wed directories,blog directories.
Then I write about other blogs,write about other locals,link to them and i try to find out the
content that my readers like to read and know about and I write for them.
Most of my traffic now comes from search engines.
It content more important that having good writing skill to make people come back to your blog over and over again?
October 25, 2008 by tonykekWe’re blogger:We’re not proffessional writers.my English is not very good,but I try my best
to write so that everyone can understand the massage I want to send.I think for bloging,
the most important thing is that,everyone who reads your post can understand and get your idea.
When did you actualy decide that you wanted to blog for a full-time income,and what maede you
October 25, 2008 by tonykekI was working in a small IT Company.Then i come back to my hometown and worked for a cosmetic
company as an IT support and wedmaster.I felt quite bored and my skills and expertise couldn’t
be used in a enviroment of the company.
At that time my bloging income was as much as my full-time sally.So I started to consider becoming
a full-time blogger because I have more time to concentrade on bloging instead of washing my time
in the office.
How did you find out that you can actually use your blog to make money on the internet?
October 25, 2008 by tonykekWhen i start my blog.I started building the traffic.Then I read about Google Adsense.However
,Gooogle Adsense was not open for personal registration at that time. A few months later,Google
decided to open for personal purposes and I signed up after that.
Initially there were no clicks and no earning.I wanted three months for my first adsense
check for USD 100 .THEN,I started searching for Adsense tips in the foroums and some blogs.
Digital Point’s forum at DigitalPoint.com/forums was one of my favorite places to go for these
tips.I got some useful tips from the popular blogger,problogger.net.
so,after I got the tips,I optimezed the Adsense placement and the Adsense income increased
gradually.
side from LiewCF.com,you also have a forum for MalaysiaBloggers and some other sites.Can you
October 25, 2008 by tonykekMy forum for Malaysia blogers is at MalaysiaBloggers.com.I welcome bloggers from other countries
to join as well.

I have another gadget site,which is IdeaGadget.com.I post the latest and interesting
gadgets on the blog.It is a relatively new blog.
Is it important to have a high page rank?
October 25, 2008 by tonykekPersonally,I do not care too much about page ranking.I concentrate more on the traffic traffic
I get ,because Adsense is very much related to the traffic .Higher traffic wikll gather more Adsense
income.
In your opinion,it is different or more diffecult to blog now compered to when you first started
October 25, 2008 by tonykekI think it’s More difficult now becuase there are too many blogs today.Everyday we see a lot of
new blogs and they are your competitors.If you get stated now,you”ll need to put more effort
to build up your traffic and content.But there are also a lot more software and services
that you can use to promote your blog now.
You said that you taught yourself search engine optimization.Did you get some kind of home
October 25, 2008 by tonykekI didn’t buy any course,actualy.What I did was to browse and compile as much free information
as I Could.back then,some people were very generous;they had a very huge website telling you
about search engine optimization was not as confusing as it is right now.
Back then,it was a lot easier.You can do one,two,three and four and you’ll get listed in the frount page
for your targeted keyword and stuff like that.No,I didn’t buy any courses,but I know that with search engine
optimization,you can get traffic from search engine.I was really into the idea of free search engine traffic
due to the fact that I didn’t have much money to spend on others ways of generating traffic.
With search engine optimization,it was just about tweaking your webside here and there and
submitting your webside to a few search engine.And then,try to get people to link toyour webside
and that was it.those are the things that I have learn about seearch enggine optimization
come from free information available on the website and forums and stuff like that.
But if you used to do A,B and C back then,and you get good result ,it may still not work right
now.I had websites ranking in the first page,and now it’s nowhere to be found.So,it’s really
frustrading .You feel as if you don’t really have control.
Is there a reason why you started off with yahoo! Auctions instead of E-BAY?
October 25, 2008 by tonykekyahoo! Auctions at that time was very, very strong.It was even stronger than E-BAY and more user-friendly.And there was actually zero cost
in starting up there selling your items or even buying.I was clearing some of my old items before I got back from singapore
.I even sold my fans and sample things that I didn’t want anymore.
The first thing you do to start it is tojust list it and wait for people to ask you question.Once you’ve sold it,you get
your returns and you know it’s working.Then you know that it is really happening.It,s working.Then you know that it is really hapening.
It,s not unreal;it’s true.
